You cannot beat the area. Period! You have to oay extra for parking, but then you may walk to stuff nearby. Pros: CLEAN! I checked the ceiling fans & vents for dirt or dust! Excellent when it comes to cleanliness. Location! You cannot get any better. New microwave and dishwasher. Stove & oven are perfectly acceptable. Fridge is older & the shelf in the freezer looks rusted, but all worked just fine. Air-conditioning worked great. Cons: Washing machine needs to be replaced. Yes, it washes, but it is so loud you cannot hear the television over the washing machine. When the washing cycle is done, the clothes are still dripping wet, but the dryer works very well. So if you put your wet clothes into the dryer, and set it on the longest timer, your clothes will dry. The bathroom in the master bedroom has a very slow draining tub and sink. Water will stand around your feet while you shower & water will sit in the sink. They do have satellite, but there is no streaming service provided. There is no place to hook up your own streaming device if you bring one to watch netflix, Amazon prime, hbo, etc. So you are stuck with satellite. The television in the master bedroom has a big scratch in it. It did not disturb my viewing, but it might be a distraction for others. There are slashes in a lamp shade in the master bedroom.

The unit immediately upon entry was very musty smelling. The textured ceiling in the kitchen was falling down with a huge piece on the floor upon entry. The door to the laundry room was unattached. The washer was EXTREMELY loud, leaked on the floor and didn't spin dry the clothes properly. Dishes were dirty. Main bathroom tub did not drain and was left with several inches of water after one shower. Pull out couch was extremely uncomfortable and we considered buying a blow up mattress for the floor. We didn't have any blankets but after notifying management they immediately brought us brand new ones. Master bedroom mattress is needing to be replaced. BUT the view was incredible and the porch was ideal. Location is ideal to beach and night life. If problems could be fixed it would be a wonderful place. We called before booking after reading reviews & were told all issues were resolved from previous reviews but clearly not. We will not be renting from here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was amazing! Short walk to the restaurants and shops and very short distance from the condo to the beach (which made hauling all our stuff stumper easy!!). However, the condo itself needs a lot of work. It is older, so everything looks dirty and worn out. The ceiling was also falling apart in the kitchen, and when we woke up one morning there was pieces on the ground. We have a 1 year old who puts everything in his mouth, so this was less than ideal. We did not reach out to the owners bc of the short stay, and we do not spend much time in the room to begin with so it wasn’t worth the hassle of getting someone in there to fix it. All this being said, I wouldn’t stay again for the simple fact that everything felt dirty to me and was somewhat falling apart.

The location was perfect. This isn't red carpet movie star hosting place. But, the location is top. It was perfect balance for my family with 2 teenagers. I would and am planning on a return trip!

Reviewer Comments: We love the location(walking distance to city park).The condo needs a deep cleaning (cabinets and blinds and under the beds, etc)and needs some upgrades(hood over the stove, refrigerator has some rust in the freezer)The washer makes a TERRIBLE noise when it is spinning; I'm surprised our neighbors didn't complain.(sounds like a subway train starting up)

It was a pleasure and a perfect vacation for us. Our first to Gulf Shores as a family. Thanks.

Right on the beach with a great view of the water. The unit is easily within walking distance of novelty shops and great food.

Perfect location. The room was clean but could use some fixing up for example the ceiling in the condo needs to be fixed and the kitchen needs a new vent hood. Overall we had a good time.

No front desk, 4 towels for a week stay of 5 people, dirty kitchen appliances, had to buy our own trash bags, dish soap, and pretty much everything else. They provide a few random things.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We reserved this place to be within walking distance of the Shrimpfest but then Shrimpfest was cancelled. We went anyway because we enjoy the beach in October. The furniture in this condo needs to be replaced. One of the chairs in the living room had a very large rip in the seat as well as being dirty. We were only allowed one parking pass and had to pay $28.75 for the one, so be prepared for that. We have never stayed anywhere that you have to pay for a parking pass. Someone other than the property management company handled the parking passes and they were not very friendly. Other than that, we enjoyed the location and being right on the beach was a plus. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Renting was easy. The condo itself was deplorable. Stained chairs in living room, one was ripped all the way down the middle. The couch was very uncomfortable and aged. I would have hated to have anyone sleep on that pullout bed.Ugh! Refrigerator freezer made about a dozen ice cubes in 3 1/2 days and shelf was rusted. It wasn't very clean either (dusty and doors not wiped down clean. Too many chairs on balconcy. The view and location are great but the condo should have a much needed update. No one wants to sit on that furniture in the living room and ice would be nice.

The location was good and the balcony view was very nice. The property is very dated - including the bedding. The kitchen accessories are very hodgepodge.

Reviewer Comments: Our Family had another great Fourth of July on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.Third year in a row with the same room, Love the spot and the view!! Right by the HangOut!!

Condo was clean but very outdated. Kitchen needs pots and pans. Island Winds West will sell you 2 parking passes but not Island Winds East! So if you rent a condo that sleeps 6-8 people you better be able to ride in one vehicle.

In the middle of getting my children out of the shower other people were walking in me the little bitches at the check in are just what I called them the rudeness was Unnecessary

Loved it, only 2 negatives. We were not told it was only 1 parking pass per condo, so my son had to park in public parking. And we never could get the air conditioning to work, very there are ceiling fans in every room and it wasn’t hotter while we were there. Everything else was perfect! Highly recommend! (We let them know and they are getting maintenance working on the air)

Shelf in freezer and microwave door frame rusted. Condo smelled of heavy cleaning liquids. Bathrooms very tiny. Master bed very squeaky. Nice TV's. Nice ocean view.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was perfect. The condo was dirty, moldy and in great need of an update/ makeover. The couch in the living room was sandy and dirty. The two chairs had water and black marks all over them. The stove is probably molder than I am and took FOREVER to heat up.
I travel a lot and I have never staid anywhere that came with so little. Not with the price at all.
