More info on this beautiful west-corner condo:
When you first set foot inside, you will find floor-to-ceiling wall-of-windows that lead to the condo's most unique feature- the spectacular wrap-around balcony. It's larger than some one-bedroom condos! The balcony offers a multitude of beautiful unobstructed beach, pool, sunrise, sunset, and city views. It has seating for 8 and there is a table just in case you decide to have your breakfast w/the dolphins. Two beautiful loungers round out this well-appointed balcony.
This highly-desired, beautifully furnished condo has many more features including:
* This floor plan is the largest 3 bedroom layout in the complex with 1,547 square feet of living space!
* Two of the three bedrooms not only have a floor-to-ceiling wall-of-windows, but they also open to the enormous gulf front balcony. This is a highly unusual feature for a beach front condo.
* All three bedrooms have attached full baths (the third bathroom also opens to the condo hallway).
* Flat screen TV's are located throughout the condo.
* High-speed password protected WIFI is provided- it can be accessed from anywhere in the condo, including the balcony!
*Key-less entry system (for guests' convenience and safety).
* Electric balcony grill (you don't have to wait in line at the complex's grills).
* From the fully-stocked kitchen and bar to the beach chairs, pool towels, and rolling cooler we have tried to make it your perfect, stress-free vacation retreat.
Throughout our travels, one of the first things we notice when staying in a condo is the cleanliness of the unit. Our long-time cleaners work very hard to make sure everything is spotless. They have worked w/us since 2009! We are blessed to have them! We also have the unit inspected to make sure everything is in perfect working order and ready for your arrival. We are also readily available should you have any questions before, during, or after your stay.

We spent 4 wonderful days here. The condo is updated and beautiful. It was very clean. The balcony is everything!!! Snack and drink machines are on site and there are plenty of restaurants nearby.
Having to wait in line to buy parking passes was the most enjoyable thing but nothing reflected on the host. The pool was having some issues during our stay but we enjoyed the indoor pool, lounge chairs and of course the beach. We will definitely be back.

818 is a beautiful vacation spot on the beach. The owners were communicative and pleasant to deal with. The unit was clean and in good condition. The design was perfect with the family area and two of the three bedrooms having access to an oversized, wrap-around balcony overlooking the beach

This is a great condo! We had 6 adults with us during our stay ranging from ages 28 to 82. My dad has really bad knees and has a hard time walking far distances, but had no issues with the location of this beautiful corner unit. The view from the moment you walk in the door is amazing!! The kitchen is fully stocked, there was nothing we needed that we didn't have. The owners of the condo provide beach chairs and other items to take to the beach. The balcony is bigger than it looks in the picture, although not much. If we had all 6 chairs around the table, you could not walk past it (you could if only using 4 chairs), but there are 3 doors along the balcony to use to get around it.
The only complaint we had was the shower and the toilet closet in the master bathroom are very small. I had no issues with the toilet closet (I am 5'5" and weigh about 170 lbs), but it was a very tight fit for my husband who is 6'4" and weighs around 300 lbs. We both felt like the shower was too small.
The owners were easy to communicate with and were super responsive to any questions we had.
Overall, this is a great place and we would definitely stay again.

The condo was very spacious and the view of the beach/ocean was great. The condo was well furnished and the kitchen had all that you needed. The only drawbacks for us were the bathrooms, specifically the Master Bath. The shower/area was not what you would expect. We were able to use the other bathrooms,so it worked out ok. Overall, the view from all the ocean from the rooms was great and the huge patio was very nice!
10.0 / 10.0
Everything was great. Condo was clean and spacious. Loved the room lay outs. Middle bathroom had low shower head pressure and a hand held would have been nice but other than that, no complaints. View was incredible. Outdoor area was huge and nice furniture. Outdoor girl was a little questionable at first. It was very windy and didn’t think it was going to stay hot enough to cook the food but it did just fine. Infra red or something. Will be back again.

This condo has everything you need, want and can imagine! It was beautiful, clean and the location was perfect! We definitely will be coming back! From the first contact with the owners to the last, they are sweet and quick with their responses. It truly was an exceptional experience!

We rented this property recently for a long overdue vacation with friends. The condo was nice, clean, and well equipped. It had everything we needed and more. While we did not use some of their amenities, we noticed there were toys for kids, water boards, floats, beach chairs, coolers, and beach towels, just to name a few. They had pretty much anything you could think of for a family/friends vacation.
The scenery from the two front bedrooms and living room was spectacular. We were able to watch dolphins everyday while having coffee on the balcony.
Gail was a joy to communicate with. We rent through VRBO very often and she has, by far, been the best. She made the process very easy. We did not have any issues checking in or leaving.
The office staff at the lighthouse were very friendly and helpful. Shout-out to the night-shift gentlemen for always smiling and being very helpful when needed. The guys on the beach, where we rented extra chairs and umbrellas, were awesome! Our entire trip was flawless! You can't go wrong renting this property at Lighthouse, Gulf Shores, AL!

We traveled with 4 adults and one 7 month old. The condo was perfect for us (actually more room than we needed). Everything was very clean and well stocked- the owners even had beach toys, beach/pool towels and plenty of beach chairs available for use if you needed them. Gail (the owner) was easy to contact and always a pleasure to talk to and answered all of our questions. We will definitely stay here again!

Condo was gorgeous and exactly what my family needed. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the large balcony and watching the waves. Master bedroom/bathroom was spacious and the view was amazing! The 8th floor provided the best vantage point to see the beach and the ocean. The included grill was an added bonus!! We loved our stay here and would definitely do it again!

Location was great! The condo had everything we needed and was just as it was listed. Kitchen was well stocked and even had the basic cleaning supplies to kick us off. They had beach chairs, umbrella and coolers for your usage. The balcony was awesome which ended being our morning and nightly gathering area. Would recommend and would also stay again.

This was our 4th stay in Gail’s condo and as usual, it was superb! There have been some nice updates, it’s always well stocked and has the best view of the beach. The balcony is a favorite spot. We enjoyed the beach and the pool and of course all the local food. Such a relaxing trip with the family ☀️❤️☀️❤️

The condo was amazing! It was perfect for my family of 4. It was very clean and spacious. Stocked well with dishes and necessities. The scenery was beautiful, we loved just sitting on the fabulous balcony and listening to the ocean. There are so many activities to do and places to eat very close. We so enjoyed being able to live on the beach for a week and definitely plan on visiting again!

This beautiful home has a gorgeous view. Very clean. While we were there very few repairs needed to be made. We were given the choice of having them done after we left but the repairmen were extremely nice and cleaned up after themselves. Their mama’s taught them right. Our host was in constant contact about the repairs and offered a free night for what she felt was an inconvenience. Though we couldn’t take her up on it the offer was generous and unnecessary. Would definitely stay there again. I highly recommend this lovely place

This was a lovely condo equipped with all of the things we needed. The beach chairs were especially nice to have. Our favorite part was the wrap around balcony, especially for our morning coffee and at sunset. Owners were super nice and easy to work with. Location was great for our small family. Our only complaint was that there were never any chairs available at the pool, but we did go during a very busy summer week. Highly recommend staying here!

Beautiful Gulf Front Condo
The condo was very clean and beautiful. The kitchen had plenty of appliances and accessories. The balcony was very spacious and afforded us a magnificent view of the beach and gulf. The owner was very quick to respond to my emails. The only issue was the master bathroom shower head. It was difficult to position, maybe because it was too big for the shower stall. Will stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0
The View is Worth It
Definitely this condo lived up to the reviews. It was clean, well-organized and laid out perfect for our group. The views were amazing even down to the dolphins swimming almost daily in the gulf. Would definitely rent from this owner again.
