Clearly some of the best guest reviews in all of Gulf Shores!

## Please check the CALENDAR button for availability ###

~~ See our photos and NINETY-NINE glowing guest reviews and you'll see how this condo picked up the nickname 'HOLY GUACAMOLE'! When you walk in, the view takes your breath away and strange comments come out of your mouth! The photos and reviews are impossible to argue with.

Everyone's FAVORITE FEATURE...This newer building was uniquely designed and offers stunning, panoramic views from a 30-FOOT WIDE WALL OF GLASS, floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall, with an unobstructed view overlooking the Gulf! That main room ALONE is around 600 sq ft.

Our huge balcony will quickly become your favorite hang-out. From the 16th floor, you can see for MILES, with a front-row seat for the daily dolphin and pelican entertainment!

1,236 sq ft - this condo is MUCH larger than most 2 bedrooms!

~ Sleeping = King ~ Queen ~ one set twin/twin bunks, sleeps six in beds and I will allow a seventh, child only (age 5 or under), to sleep on sectional

~ 2.5 bathrooms (FIVE bathrooms sinks and THREE toilets TOTAL) - no crowded bathrooms!

The kids will love fending off the pinfish, chasing minnows and hermit crabs, or dropping down a crab basket ~ and the adults love the fishing action.

Sanibel lies in a low-density, mainly residential area where you won't have to fight for a spot on the beach, but is only 2.5 miles to Highway 59 which is the hub of activity and restaurants of Gulf Shores.

About Dana Flynn

I grew up in the Pensacola area (next town to the east) and had a love for the beach and being on the water, and there is nowhere I'd rather be! I grew up fishing these waters and enjoying every aspect of these beaches, including being a lifeguard! I married a New Yorker, and it only took ONE visit to the panhandle beaches for him to fall - hook, line and sinker - for the stunning beaches and the laid-back attitude that goes with it! We visit our condo at least eight times a year, and know the area very well.

Dana Flynn purchased this condo in 2007
Why Dana Flynn chose Gulf Shores

Gulf Shores is is the quintessential beach town - still quaint - yet has everything you need from a beach town for a great vacation! We grew tired of the traffic and hustle and bustle in Destin and other beach areas. Most importantly, we chose Gulf Shores for the sugar white sands, crystal clear water, and plenty to do (or NOT do). The location of this condo just can't be beat: close to everything, but just out of the fray of any traffic.

What makes this condo unique

Fishing in the Pass or in Little Lagoon behind the condo, walking to Bahama Bob's for happy hour or dinner, being able to take a jog down West Beach without fear of being run over! I also love the super fast wi-fi for my laptop on a rainy day. The views of BOTH the Gulf AND Little Lagoon are simply gorgeous!

Ever have that vacation come together JUST when you need it the most? You're at the cracking point, but you take yourself on a break just in time? That's what this weekend was for us, and Dana's condo was such a scrumptious setting. Absolutely everything was fantastic. Everyone we encountered was so nice, the weather was perfect, and we could feel the stress dropping away moment by moment. Pelicans swooped by as we sat on the balcony, enjoying the view. We watched a group set up for a wedding on the beach, which was fun! The Lagoon Pass was everything you described. Our daughter was enthralled. Egrets walked within 20 feet of us, seagulls left us alone (!), and there were shells all over the place to collect. We will be back, definitely. Thanks again for everything - the bottle of wine was appreciated!

Best 40th Birthday Trip Ever!!

Dana,
Thank-you so much for sharing your little piece of heaven on my 40th Birthday! It was my first time ever to the Gulf Shores and well worth the trip! I will never forget this trip, your condo overlooking the beach could not have been more breath taking to wake up to every day.. I have also never booked anything like this online and you made everything so stress free from the booking to the little home touches that were provided in the condo. I will be back and I will be telling all my friends of your condos.
Thank-you again,
Amiee
Owner's Response: Amiee - I'm tickled you had such a great time and we could be a part of celebrating your 40th. Our professional booking system makes for smooth management and I love what I do, so I'm glad you noticed. See you next time!

This condo is huge! I tried to take pictures from every angle, but you can't capture all the beauty. No corners are cut here! Squeaky clean, soft towels, comfy bed, pillows & blankets, gorgeous decor & THE VIEW, OH MY! Wether you are making a meal in the kitchen looking out or the way the moon lights up the ocean at night, you will be blown away. Just walking in this place is breathtaking! If you are deciding between places, Im telling you, this is the best. For the price, it Cannot be beat.

This was our first trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama and we stayed in this fabulous condo. Everything was way nicer in person than the photos and this condo is big with a full bathroom with tub in each bedroom, double leather sectionals with kitchen and bathrooms all done in beautiful granite. We loved the decor. The balcony is huge and the views are breathtaking. We are used to vacationing in Fort Myers, Florida but Gulf Shores area is a best kept secret and we can't wait to go back.

Fall Break/Shrimp Fest fun!

We made a quick decision to head to Gulf Shores for fall break, which happened to fall on Shrimp Fest weekend. We knew we wanted a condo with comfortable furnishings in case the fall weather forced us indoors. We were not disappointed in the weather or Dana's lovely condo! The view from the 16th floor is spectacular, the walk to the beach is quick and my fisherman husband was happy with the catch in the "backyard" lagoon. The festivities of Shrimp Fest were great - it was very easy to maneuver to and around it (short cut down 6th St to avoid Hwy 59 intersection). Our favorite restaurant is Ship's Harbor Grill in Orange Beach off Canal and no trip is complete without picking up steamed shrimp from Gulf Shores Market on H59.
