First I want to start by saying that our original vacation booking at a different property was cancelled last minute due to a maintenance issue and we had to book something fast, within two days, for our vacation. This townhouse seemed overpriced but we had very limited choices.
The winning parts of this townhouse are the location, steps to the beach, and quick drive to busier spots like Orange Beach or Pensacola. (It's a mile walk to Florabama restaurant, 15-20 minutes)
The unit itself is old and needs some work. The sliding glass door on the main living floor is a torn rotator cuff waiting to happen it was so hard to open and close. Several windows are hazy and can't really see through to the beach in the master. There is an overall musty smell that can be overwhelming. The cabinets in the kitchen also emit a weird smell. To lock the sliding glass door and then walk from the front door to the beach requires a walk down an unkempt/uneven alley at the side of the unit. I guess if you are okay leaving doors unlocked it isn't an issue. At several different times of day the air vents would condensate and drip randomly. My kids slept in the room on the road side and they said it was really loud.
Basically the price we paid per night was not reflected in the actual townhouse but in the location and closeness to the beach. We wanted to be on a less busy part of the beach and it did deliver that.
The owner was communicative about ice maker/water in fridge issues.
