Lovely Condo!

We had a great time on our annual Gulf Shores weekend. The condo was exactly as described and had everything we needed. Check in and check out instructions were clear and provided well in advance of the stay. Host is friendly and communicative. p.s. the primary bedroom in this unit probably has the most comfortable mattress of any vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in!

Amazing!!

The condo was amazing. Perfect location right on the ocean. Also the pool was warm and relaxing. We were blessed with amazing weather so having the deck doors open to the living room plus master bedroom was perfect. All the rooms fit our needs perfectly. The beds felt like home, they were so comfortable. When we did close the doors it was so quiet. U could not hear any outside noise. We felt safe on the beach. Lots to do around the area. Will definitely be back.

Great Location

It's far enough away from the busy public beach area to be a laid back location. But yet it's close enough to take a short drive or a nice walk to great places to eat. The larger corner balcony is very nice. Jason & Sonya gave us restaurant suggestions (eating is a big part of vacation!) and were quick to respond when I needed to contact them. I'd highly recommend the Island Royale!

Amazing!!

My family and I booked a last minute fall break trip to Gulf Shores. Our condo was amazing! The location to everything was perfect. All shops, restaurants and attractions were close by. The pool and beach access were wonderful. My kids loved going from the beach to the heated pool. The view from the balcony was amazing and we saw dolphins almost every morning swimming super close to the shoreline. The condo was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were super comfortable. Having our own washer and dryer in the unit was the best and super convenient. Communication between owner was excellent. Favorite restaurants were the Hangout and LuLu’s. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend staying at this location during your next visit to Gulf Shores. We can’t wait to visit again soon!

It was perfect. We took my parents to celebrate my fathers 86th birthday. The unit was clean, roomy, and had all the amenities. The hosts could not have been more lovely. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the dolphins perform for us! The location was perfect. Shell collecting was optimal and we will definitely go back to this unit again and again!!!

Book this property... you will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful stay here! The unit is larger in person! Parking lot is very close to the building and the elevator is just steps away. We loved to set up of the building with the elevator being so close to the room as well as the proximity to pool/beach side. Didn't feel we had to take everything down to the beach as the walk was so brief could just head back and forth quickly as needed vs having a long trek to the beach. Beds are very comfortable. Unit cooled quickly. The balcony was great! Host was very quick tp respond with any questions we had! Hope to return soon!

Perfect Family Beachfront Condo

This condo was stunning, beautiful views throughout the condo. The condo was clean upon arrival and had everything we needed. The balcony was amazing, we ate all our meals out there and relaxed at night listening to the waves. The storage shed off the balcony had beach chairs and toys which was awesome! The condo is in the perfect location, we walked to restaurants, shops and for ice cream in the evenings. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! One of our favorite places we've stayed.
