Good time
The place was nice, but the beds are extremely hard. The rest was good. The kitchen was well stocked, and the views are amazing. The beach is really nice and there are lots of things for the beach like towels, chairs, and sand toys. There are lots of places to go and see that are fairly close. The dryer needs some work as it leaves black streaks on your clothes. The 2nd master could use some deep cleaning. We did have a sink leak but the owner got someone there the next day to fix it.

Very nice property
The top floor views from this property were wonderful. Very spacious floor plan 5 bedrooms provided excellent accommodations for our party. No soap or shampoo/ conditioner in the bathrooms so be sure to bring your own. $50 parking fee per car was not included in the rental fee. Excellent location, walk onto the beach, and a close walk to multiple restaurants

Great!
Ranging from ages 1-65, everyone in our family loved this condo. It had more stocked than others we have stayed in, including enough towels and beach chairs, sand toys, kitchen utensils/small appliances/containers, even coffee filters, some coffee and spices. Of the pools, we spent the most time in the more toddler friendly one which halfway through was only up to my 18 month olds waist which was so nice. The ocean was only steps away and the beach was clean. I rated 5 stars for everything except cleanliness. In the condo there was trash from previous guests both under dressers and one bed (mostly empty bottles). The other part is likely out of the owners control but the pools cleanliness level was just OK too. Overall we would definitely return.Thank you to Robert and Gail for being such responsive hosts!

Lighthouse Penthouse #4 Review
My group were all 70+ in age. We loved the covered parking exactly where the high speed elevators were so getting to our penthouse easy. The views were spectacular for sunrises and sunsets. The penthouse was fully equipped so we lacked nothing. Our host was great to work with. We were very comfortable.

We came to Gulf Shores with family for our granddaughter’s High School Softball tournament. The condo was conveniently located to the sports complex, restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed the wonderful view from the condo. Very easy access to beach, pool and workout room. Would stay at this condo again as it was perfect for our family.

Beach Family Trip
Spacious! This was our first family get way where we all stayed together. We had four families totaling to 12 guests. I was worried about the privacy of each family which was not an issue at all! We did a lot of cooking together and didn’t trip over in each other. The condo was equipped with pots, pans, dishes, and contained all the utensils we needed! Impressive. Beautiful view with the largest balcony space thus far. Highly recommended!
