Lindsay, the homeowner, was a pleasure to work with. This was my first time renting through VRBO & she made the entire process easy with her quick responses to any of my questions. Additionally, I found the reviews from prior renters immensely helpful with comments about their experience at the property & additional amenities available that they found helpful that were not listed in the “about this rental” area.
Highlights that my family & I enjoyed:
•Spacious condo with superb air conditioning.
•Generous amounts of towels.
•Washer & Dryer on premises.
•Ice maker inside freezer section of frig.
•Beach chairs, beach towels, & two umbrellas were supplied free of use. I forgot to bring my umbrella so I was very happy that these were provided.
•Immensely appreciated the supplied wagon to pull all the beach items to the beach.
•Peaceful & relaxing patio behind condo overlooking a canal.
•Generous amount of pools to choose from.
•REALLY APPRECIATED that the resort’s pools were open until 11:00pm. Made for a nice opportunity to cool down with a late evening swim from a hot Florida day.
•King size bed in the Master bedroom was incredibly spacious! I now want one for myself!
•Beach was a quick walk & easy access, we realized on the last day the there are two sidewalks that run along each side of the beach pool. We were using the steps all week and discovered that the sidewalk on the right side of the building allows an extended ramp so you don’t have to carry the wagon up and down about a half dozen steps.
•Location is central to many things to go see and do outside of the resort. We enjoyed the 11 minute helicopter tour & glad we chose the extra time, as it went by quickly.
•We appreciated that it was a secure gated resort.
•I knew from prior reviews that there was a Keurig in the kitchen, so I brought my reusable K Cup Coffee Pod Filter and that came in handy for a quick cup of coffee.
•Beautifully decorated beach theme throughout the home.
After looking through a large amount of VRBO listed properties from Gulf Shores area & along the panhandle, this property jumped out at me. The reviews were positive, honest & upfront. The resort complex upon entering through the gate as a first impression seemed a little outdated as mentioned by one reviewer, so we kind of expected it. Once we entered & stepped foot in to the condo, we were pleasantly surprised & let out a huge sigh of relief. We would definitely return in the future.
