A Little Piece of Paradise
Review Submitted: October 21, 2008
Date of Stay: October 2008
This was our first trip back to Gulf Shores since 2001 when we stayed at the original Lighthouse. We loved the quaintness of the original Lighthouse but I have to say that the new Lighthouse is even better.
Since I am not exceptionally computer savvy this was my first time renting online and I was somewhat skeptical. However, the condo was even prettier than the pictures I saw online. It was absolutely beautiful! It was decorated tastefully, very clean and so comfortable! We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck. We drank coffee and watched the sun come up in the mornings and enjoyed the spectacular view of the Gulf. I loved going to sleep at night listening to the surf.
We ate at Bubba's, and the Original Oyster House twice - just can't get enough of that place! And we enjoyed going to the shops in the Bayou Village. We found a local bookstore (Just Books) that was great, got T-shirts for those back home at Surf Style, bought fresh shrimp at Boudreau's (sp?) and there are several grocery stores nearby. Also, although we did not participate, for those that enjoy water sports, this beach is ideal. Parking in the complex was never a problem - very convenient.
I have told all my friends how great our vacation was. Everything was perfect and we have no complaints whatsoever. We look forward to going again next year!
