About this apartment rental
1. Beach/Gulf Front! Nothing separates you from the Gulf of Mexico other than a short walk on sugar white sand!
2. Balcony and Views! The private and spacious (311 square ft.) balcony is on the 10th floor and on the east corner of the building. The unobstructed views of the Gulf’s emerald green water and white sand beaches are to die for!! The sunrises and sunsets are will take your breath away! (Please view my photos!)
3. Location! The condo is located 0.8 miles from downtown Gulf Shores, making it an easy walk (along the street or beach) to restaurants like The Hangout , Bahama Bob’s, and The Pink Pony Pub. Pier 33 (a small carryout/grocery store) is just across the street.
4. Beach! Our beach is huge, clean and sugar white! Unlike other larger condo complexes where guests crowd the beach, Island Royale is a smaller but newer building which allows for a comfortable beach population! Set up your beach camp and have plenty of room to play!
5. Condo Layout! My family friendly, 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo sleeps 8 and has plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own space. Each bedroom has an attached bath for each guest’s privacy. There is a flat screen/smart TV in each bedroom and the living room. The dining area seats 9. If you have an extended family and you need more space, check out my penthouse unit that’s just 5 floors above this unit (VRBO 838652). It will sleep 8 people too, so that gives a total of 16 family and friends all located in the same building and on the same beach!!
6. Convenient Beach Gear Storage: No need to lug your beach gear for miles after your day in the sun. Unit 1001 has parking near the entrance to the beach. Simply walk off the beach and drop your heavy beach gear in the back of your vehicle. Done!
7. Clean! How many units have you had to clean when you arrived to begin your vacation? Not here!! My unit is cleaned by a wonderful cleaning company who treat my unit as if it were their own home. They do not cut corners, they clean ‘em!!
8. Updated! Bathrooms remodeled in 2021. New kitchen cabinets and a new water heater were installed in early 2019, new washer and dishwasher installed in 2021!!
9. Extra Features! There is a fabulous indoor/outdoor swim through heated pool and indoor and outdoor hot tubs. In 2022, a kiddie pool/splash pad was installed. The Island Royale building has 4 outdoor charcoal grills, a fitness center, and sauna and steam room and upgraded Wi-Fi!
10. Owner Operated! I own my unit and I manage it. I do not use a hard to reach Management Company. You may call me 24/7 and I will either pick up my phone or return your call within minutes. If you have any issues, I will address them immediately!! Your vacation is very important to me and I want to make it the best ever! My goal, for my guests is to have such a positive experience they want to make my condo and Gulf Shores part of their family tradition year after year!

8.0 / 10.0
The overall property is nice. Views are great. Easy parking, (spaces are a bit on the skinny side). Hot tubs were cold two of the days we were there. (Not a building problem but wish parents would not let their small children use them as swimming pools). The unit was nice. Liked that the kitchen had plastic storage containers for leftovers. Also nice selection of card/board games/movies. A few more hand towels for the three bathrooms would be nice (one each provided) we use a clean one every other day, however with laundry to do in the unit, wasn’t a big deal. We had an issue that Cindy was quick to respond to even though it was out of her control and liked that she was very responsive. The worst part of spring break this year was the weather for half the week but I would recommend her units!

I highly recommend starting here! From the beginning, Cindy (and Dave) were a joy to communicate with. The property is beautiful inside and out. Their balcony and view is breathtaking! The decor was just right — beachy, yet elegant. The mattress in the master suite was so comfortable that we contacted Cindy to see what brand. This condo is within walking and short driving distance to tasty restaurants and grocery stores. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Cindy, for a great vacation experience :)

Cindy communicates very well with renters. Every bit of info we needed was provided for seamless arrival and checkout. Great location for our family of 6. Access to the beach was super easy! Parking was no problem. Very quiet building.

Loved the place, but couch had a funky smell and pool needed a daily cleaning to get the small pieces of debris out. Balcony was awesome.
10.0 / 10.0
This vacation was one of the best trips. Our condo was so perfectly maintained and beautiful! Right on the beach with everything you need. Cindy is very responsive when you need anything or have questions! Restaurants and fun are very close by. We will be back again!
10.0 / 10.0
We loved this condo! The balcony was very spacious and had great furniture that was accommodating to our whole family of 5 with room to spare. The condo was very clean and well organized. It was well stocked with everything we needed for the week. We particularly appreciated the games, the the charging stations, and kitchen supplies. We loved Cindy's personal notes that were left for us to assist us in our stay. She was a very pleasant hostess who was very easy to communicate with. We would definitely consider staying with her again and recommend that others do as well.

Beautiful view! Condo was clean and well maintained. Cindy Lou was very responsive when we had questions. We were in need of sheets for the sofa bed and she contacted housekeeping and got them to us ASAP. Great place to stay and beach was beautiful!
10.0 / 10.0
This is a beautiful condo right on the beach! The views from the balcony are the absolute best!! On the 10th floor, you get a really good consistent breeze. My husband and I enjoyed sitting out there nightly with a bottle of wine after the kids went to bed. The location was perfect - easy to walk down to the beach (and our rental chairs) to come back and forth for lunch and snacks, but also convenient to the hub of Gulf Shores. The Hangout is approx a 15 minute walk away. The condo itself was pristine and provided everything we could need. With kids ranging from 1.5 to 19 years old, there was enough room for us to spread out. Kitchen was stocked well enough for us to cook a few nights (the crockpot was big enough to feed 9) and across the street is a convenience store with a coffee shop on the second floor. This condo was exactly what I hoped it would be and made our beach vacation everything we could want. You won’t be disappointed.

Just the perfect vacay getaway! First, the owner/host Cindy was amazing and her attention to the details were impeccable! The view from this unit is a million dollar view and the unit itself was laid out very well. Beach and pool access was great too! Would highly recommend this unit and I hope to return and stay in Cindy’s properties.
10.0 / 10.0
We had a wonderful family vacation at Cindy’s condo. It was clean, comfortable and checked all the boxes! The view from the balcony is wonderful and we enjoyed the view with our morning coffee. Communication with Cindy was easy and she was readily available to answer questions. My sister in law, who is really picky, loved our time here. The condo is low density and Shawn with the beach service had our chairs set up ‘exactly right’ each day. We cooked most of our dinners and the condo had everything we needed as the kitchen is well equipped. I can’t recommend this condo enough and would definitely rent it again.

We could not love this property more! It was clean and one of the best well stocked condos we have stayed at. Quick elevators and great parking. Booking with Cindy was one of the best experiences I’ve had with an owner she is quick to respond and provides you with ALL the info you need and tips for your stay! We will 10/10 be coming back!

Family Vacation
The layout of the property is great. Balcony overlooking the beach is very big and great views. The condo was not as clean as I expected. Bathroom showers had to be cleaned prior to using. Furniture in living room appears dirty as it is fabric and most likely hard to clean. Condo had two fire evacuations in a one week stay. One was at 2am and the other at 6am. No fire but everyone had to evacuate from the building.

We’re happy in KY!
We are so pleased with the condo and the overall experience! The owner is the absolute BEST ever I’ve ever dealt with, and I’ve dealt with many over the years. She is is thorough and very pleasant to deal with. She goes above and beyond to make sure you’re well taken care of. The condo was immaculate, smelled great, and everything was updated and worked very well! The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. The view from the large balcony was breathtaking! So happy and we will be back!!
