More info on this beautiful west-corner condo:

When you first set foot inside, you will find floor-to-ceiling wall-of-windows that lead to the condo's most unique feature- the spectacular wrap-around balcony. It's larger than some one-bedroom condos! The balcony offers a multitude of beautiful unobstructed beach, pool, sunrise, sunset, and city views. It has seating for 8 and there is a table just in case you decide to have your breakfast w/the dolphins. Two beautiful loungers round out this well-appointed balcony.

This highly-desired, beautifully furnished condo has many more features including:

* This floor plan is the largest 3 bedroom layout in the complex with 1,547 square feet of living space!

* Two of the three bedrooms not only have a floor-to-ceiling wall-of-windows, but they also open to the enormous gulf front balcony. This is a highly unusual feature for a beach front condo.

* All three bedrooms have attached full baths (the third bathroom also opens to the condo hallway).

* Flat screen TV's are located throughout the condo.

* High-speed password protected WIFI is provided- it can be accessed from anywhere in the condo, including the balcony!

*Key-less entry system (for guests' convenience and safety).

* Electric balcony grill (you don't have to wait in line at the complex's grills).

* From the fully-stocked kitchen and bar to the beach chairs, pool towels, and rolling cooler we have tried to make it your perfect, stress-free vacation retreat.

Throughout our travels, one of the first things we notice when staying in a condo is the cleanliness of the unit. Our long-time cleaners work very hard to make sure everything is spotless. They have worked w/us since 2009! We are blessed to have them! We are also readily available should you have any questions before, during, or after your stay.
As for the Gulf front Lighthouse complex, it is the place to be in Gulf Shores. Since Hurricane Sally in September 2020. The Lighthouse has received extensive updates, including, but not limited to new walkways, the entire building painted, etc. The Lighthouse has two outdoor pools (including one kid-friendly zero-entry pool), one indoor pool, two hot tubs, sauna, fitness center, and it is located directly on the white-sand beaches of Gulf Shores. The Lighthouse is located 0.6 of a mile from the center of Gulf Shores (The Hangout-where Highway 59 meets the Gulf).

NOTE: Parking passes are currently $50 per car, per stay, but subject to change without notice. Max is two cars per condo. Pay at the office upon arrival by credit card only.

Gulf Shores and the Alabama Gulf Coast area have many interesting activities for all members of your family. There are many restaurants within walking distance or a short drive from our condo. You can even view the local favorite, Sea-N-Suds from our balcony! Other nearby family-fun centers include a water and amusement Park, a zoo, miniature golf, and go-kart tracks. The Tanger outlet mall is about a 20 minute drive from the beach, and there are numerous fishing charters, a tennis facility, world-class golf courses, and OWA amusement park nearby. The Wharf, located in nearby Orange Beach has many shops, restaurants, and an amphitheater where many famous music artists perform. Short day trips include, Ft. Morgan where you can take the ferry across Mobile Bay to visit the Dauphin Island Estuarium Sea Lab and the Bird Sanctuary and Pensacola, Fl where you can visit the Naval Aviation Museum (home of the world famous Blue Angels).

Great condo , location

The location was excellent, easy walk to beach and pools. Pools were pretty cold, but they are nice. Property is clean. Only 2 parking passes make it difficult since we had 3 drivers and 50 per parking pass seems steep, especially when paying premium price for condo rental. The condo itself was very nice. The master bedroom and bathroom is very spacious. The xtra bedroom with balcony is pretty small, bathroom too and dresser space is tight. There is a Closet in the bathroom which helps. The xtra bedroom without balcony is more spacious, with good dressers for clothes. Refrigerator worked well, kitchen was nice and equipped. Easy, 9 min walk to Hangout, close to restaurants and shopping. I would recommend this location.

Sprink break birthday staycation

I was impressed with the place. It was very neat and clean, they had just about everything you would need, silverware, beach stuff, extra towels. The place is much better in person the panoramic view is to die for the bedroom and the new renovation to the extra large shower are awesome. Everything was perfect for us. The only thing that could've made it better was a soaking tub I really love to relax and have a bath on vacation.

Amazing view!

Go to Gulf Shores every couple years and I will say this property has been our favorite so far! The view was amazing. We could be sitting on the couch inside and see dolphins just from looking out. The beach was beautiful as always. The pools were very nice! We loved the walk in pool for our kiddos. The property manager was very nice and very responsive and made our stay very welcome! Kid friendly property, plenty of beach toys, chairs, towels, everything we needed!

Beach oasis

Everything about our stay was fantastic. All amenities were in working order. Everything we needed to cook breakfast and lunch without going out so it didn’t cut into my beach time! The beach chairs were great touch, so we didn’t have to buy anything. Loved being able to wake up each morning and step out on the balcony to see the sunrise from the door in the bedroom and not wake up the kids! The balcony is huge and the table and chairs were great to sit out on in the evening. Would definitely look at booking here again for our next stay!

Wonderful place to call home for a week!

Gail and Robert’s property at 818 was wonderful! Thank goodness, because Hurricane Francine happened, and well, the beach and ocean were not happening… we had about a 1/2 a day in the beach and in the water. 😔 Communication w Gail was prompt. Directions to/abt things regarding condo were clear and easy to follow. We look forward to inquiring abt another property of theirs in TN on a future trip. They couldn’t control the weather, so luckily their place was really nice.

Beautiful Memories

We spent 4 wonderful days here. The condo is updated and beautiful. It was very clean. The balcony is everything!!! Snack and drink machines are on site and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. Having to wait in line to buy parking passes was the most enjoyable thing but nothing reflected on the host. The pool was having some issues during our stay but we enjoyed the indoor pool, lounge chairs and of course the beach. We will definitely be back.
