Perfect family getaway!

Our family visited Gulf Shores and we really enjoyed it there. This condo was perfect. The gulf front view was awesome and we spent lots of time on the large balcony enjoying the view and watching for dolphins. The beach has soft white sand and pretty shells. The water was so clear and the beach was clean. The condo is very large with 4 nice sized bedrooms each with its own bathroom. All the linens, carpets, curtains, comforters looked new and clean. The place was just super comfy and it felt like home. The kitchen was furnished with more than enough dishes, pans, flatware, blender, coffee maker, etc. There were only 6 of us staying at the condo, although there was plenty of room for more. We like to have our space and be able to spread out and relax, and we sure were able to do that there. There were always plenty of parking places in the lot and there is a security guard as well. There are 2 elevators and there are also carts available to load luggage/ groceries on so you don't have to carry it all. The pool is heated and covered in the winter/spring and is quite large. Our daughter really enjoyed it. The building is next to the state park area so you don't feel so closed in by concrete. If you walk east on the beach you get to look at sand dunes, not buildings! The building is close enough to walk to The Hangout and some of the tourist shops. The owners are so easy to work with and answered all our questions promptly. I would recommend this condo and we hope we can return to Gulf Shores and we will definitely stay there again. There are so many great places to eat, and lots of things for kids to do at Gulf Shores. We really enjoyed The Hangout, LuLu's, Tacky Jacks, and riding the go-carts at The Track.

Owner's Response: We are thrilled that our guests had such a wonderful time and found our condo roomy and our linens, carpets, and furnishings like new. It was great to hear that we were easy to work with and very responsive, because that is definitely our aim. I loved hearing about our beautiful soft white sand and clear water in Gulf Shores, since I totally agree. My only confusion is that all of the things in this review sound like a 5 star review, not a 3 out of 5, after all it's titled "Perfect family getaway."
