Townhouse On The Beach! Not A High Rise! Quiet Family complex! Great location

Hi, my name is Michael Moranz and I have a proven rental record. I have been renting on VRBO since 2003. I take pride in providing an excellent vacation at a great value. Units updated October 2021. We have unit 35 on VRBO as well. www.vrbo.com/24758

Unit 39. Great, two-story townhouse condominiums on the beach! No one above you or below you. The only 'TRUE LOW-DENSITY COMPLEX' on the Gulf! Only 40 units and 250 feet of beach front! No high rise next to you on either side. No obstructed views. Great Family Complex! No elevators to wait on! No long flights of stairs! Ocean view from EVERY room! Two balconies with nice metal bar stool chairs. Has a private garage (two cars) under unit. No long walk from parking lot. The private garage is wonderful for use as a barbecue and grilling patio. Grill steaks from a newer Weber grill while watching the waves break just feet away.

Every side is gulf side. Located at 723 West Beach Blvd. (182) 1/2 mile from US 59 (the 'T'). o, two story, no one above or below you... this spells PRIVACY! Something you do not have in a high rise! Two large bedrooms and two large bathrooms on the second floor with a private deck off the master. Kitchen, dining room, 1/2 bath and a deck off the living room on the first floor. Has washer and drier in the unit. Walk out of your door into your private garage, then onto the beach 20 feet away.

These townhouses feel like a private home on the beach with a pool. THIS PLACE IS LIKE HAVING YOUR OWN HOUSE ON THE BEACH... WITH THE POOL!!! Watch the kids play from your balcony. Enjoy drinks and dinner on your private balcony. Enjoy the use of wireless internet throughout the entire complex. Hotel quality linens and towels, all new! Brand New Air conditioners. Ice cold!

Ocean and beach views shown on these two pages were taken from balconies or windows in both units.

Great grass field in the middle of complex to play ball with the kids.

Alabama's finest beach town has been a hidden secret for families to gather for many years, where you can experience all types of entertainment, unique shopping and delicious dining. It's award winning, sugar-white sand beaches are where friends come to enjoy the clear blue water along with all the water activities that go with it.

Blue ray player Stream NETFLIX, HULU, etc. (user account required)!
New smart TV’s in the bedroom
Free Spire WIFI with high power service and extender.
Toy box in garage
WALK TO THE HANGOUT


The unit has Queen bed in the master and queen in the second bedroom. We also have a queen air mattress on the first floor for extra company.
.



** Adults and families only
** No student rental.
** This is a non-smoking unit.
** No pets allowed (local kennel available)

THIS IS A WONDERFUL PLACE TO SPEND A WEEK AT THE BEACH!

Wonderful location and stay
What a location and view. Just steps to the beach, and a great pool as well. Parking on site, easy drive to restaurants and activities if you choose to do so. Bedrooms up stairs and nice living room and kitchen area on main floor. Only negative for some may be that there are stairs to get in and once in to get to the bedrooms. Had wonderful time and if we come back would try to book again.

Our favorite place at GS
Our 9th stay in Gulf Shores and to Michael’s property at Gulfside Townhomes. Our kids who are now teens say that this is the place to make memories. We love the comfort of this condo, the ability to “kick back”, and the breathtaking views. We hope to return in 2025.

We've been visiting Gulfside Townhomes since 2011, and we've stayed in several units. We love the location of the complex, the fact that each unit is just one family, and the beautiful beachside access.

Wonderful experience!
This was our first time we have used VRBO and what a great impression it left for us. The property worked so well for our family of four. Not 1 but 2 levels to enjoy the view of the ocean/beach. Michael was extremely helpful with any questions and made the whole process a breeze. Footsteps away from the beach was such a luxury to have. We would definitely recommend this townhouse to our friends and family and look forward to another stay in the future.

Absolutely perfect! It was more than expected! Very clean, spacious and perfect for us! The location was a big plus!! And loved the fact that it had a covered area for parking. I wished we could’ve stayed longer. Oddly enough it was very quiet and peaceful. The pool area was great and we enjoyed it the first night there after checking in. The short walk to the beach was another plus!! We will be checking this location and townhome out again in the future!

Construction work
I went there because I was having major surgery the week I was to return from there. The fest morning I was there for wake up to a jack hammer being used. I later look out my window and see construction workers on scaffolding peering thru my windows so there was no opening. The curtains. The manger told me could leave and h would refund me my money but who could find a room down there on hangoutI festival weekend. T try hen the second day we woke u at 7 listening to a jackhammer again. Then after that the manager would not get back up with me. . I’m am filing papers for him to reinmburess me for at least half my money . I think he owes me that. Because now I have all the worryies of the court doings. But he is not going to get away with this as easy as helthinks to is. He never said anything about any cosytructuon going n at all.

Long weekend
Owner failed to mention construction next door. Arrived Wednesday night. Workers showed up next door at 8AM Thursday and began working. About 10AM, they started drilling with a hammer drill / jackhammer. Worked until 5PM. Friday morning, they immediately started jackhammering. Luckily for us, they did not work Saturday, our last day. Contacted owner, he stated, he had let march/April renters know. Still didn’t help us. No remorse. Do not rent for at least2 more months. No way they finish before then.

Convenient and Spacious
Had a great stay for spring break. The local beaches were tame for spring break and it was nice being able to walk right out onto the beach with the family and even watch the kids play from either of the two balconies. The pool was nice when it was too breezy down by the gulf. Definitely will return.

Awesome location
The location and view was the best part about our stay. We did have some flies but nothing overwhelming. Flies stayed in the bathrooms mostly. In my own opinion, the showers could use some updating and some new patio furniture would be a plus. Refrigerator is functional but i think it would be an appliance I would look at replacing as well. Overall it was a great place to stay on the beach.

Excellent property location right on the beach. Daily took a short walk to Pier 33 for great coffee and any needed little grocery items. The property is a little dated and could use just a small amount of the TLC be perfect. There are many shops and restaurants within a 20 minute walk. My wife did not want to leave!
