The view was beautiful, we loved our stay. Just keep this in mind if flying… bring your own beach towels (or be prepared to purchase some)! Overall our stay was amazing!

We were very happy with this rental. Plenty of room for all our family, easy access to the beach and a great pool. Very accurately described in the listing and they even had plenty of games and puzzles for us. Bender Realty were extraordinary to work with and were very accommodating. We would certainly rent with Bender again. 0 problems on this vacation, 100/100 for the experience.Shh, don’t tell anyone, early May is a great time to visit the Gulf!

We had an amazing stay at this beachfront home in Gulf Shores! The house was perfect for our entire family, with ages ranging from 3 to 75, and it truly met everyones needs. The elevator was a huge plus, making it easy and comfortable for those with mobility challenges to fully enjoy the space. The views from the living room and porches were absolutely stunningbeing able to see and hear the ocean made it possible for family members who couldnt make it down to the beach to still feel part of the experience. The home was very clean, well stocked, and thoughtfully equipped, including plenty of sand toys that our little one loved. Overall, this home provided a wonderful, relaxing environment for our family, and we are already booked to stay here again later this year! Property management provided excellent communication before and during our stay to make it a seamless check-in and check-out process. We did not have any issues needing attention during our stay.

We enjoyed our stay! The rental was extremely clean, the balcony was so spacious, and the beach and pools are right there and not a far walk. When the weather was bad, we were able to purchase a clubhouse pass and use the heated indoor pool which felt great. I highly recommend this rental, I hope to be back next summer!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was very homey and had plenty of room! We had a small issue with the door lock and the management company took care of it immediately! Bed was very comfortable. The property is right next to the state park which provides a quiet atmosphere while still being close enough to all the restaurants and shops. We love this property!! ❤️

Nice unit that checks all the boxes. Plenty of parking. Quiet beach. Close to anything you need - groceries, restaurants, or entertainment. The luggage carts came in handy.

Our family had an excellent stay at this property. It was easy to get to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. Having the lagoon in our backyard was amazing! The home was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked for at home dining. Our fur babies felt right at home too! Wonderful property and location! We will be returning!

The beach view and location were both fabulous. The chairs on the patio were comfortable which allowed visitors to view the ocean leisurely. Definitely worth the trip. Proximity to the beach was also great. The beach was nice and well maintained. The unit was clean. The appliances should be replaced soon. They were not in the best shape. Getting the dogs up and down the elevator was no problem. The dog areas were well maintained and we appreciated that the doggie bags were not only provided but also easily accessed. It was a great trip, planned on the spur of the moment and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. Gulf Shores has many great places to eat, shopping, activities, and the traffic is not crazy. Loved our trip. We will be back.

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo! The view was absolutely amazing and one of our favorite parts of the trip. The condo was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. My husband especially loved how convenient the parking was — we were able to pull right into the parking deck, hop on the elevator, and go straight up to the condo with no hassle at all. The easy access made unloading and coming and going so much easier. We would definitely stay here again and can’t wait to come back!

The condo was in a great location and very quiet. The furniture looked new, was very clean and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, although a ceiling fan in the guest bedroom would have been nice. Outdoor furniture was also comfortable. Bender, the host, kept us informed and responded quickly to any questions and concerns. Overall a pleasant experience.

This was a great place to stay. The only thing that was not ideal, was the dredging pipe. This is beyond the property management’s control and did not affect our stay at all. It would be helpful to have a privacy wall between the property Nextdoor to allow some privacy. Overall, we loved it as we always do! Thanks!

It was a great place for our extended family of parents, kids and grandchildren. We spent most of our time in the outdoor space and had a great time. Kitchen was well appointed and there was plenty of room for all of us. They were very responsive when we reached out about an issue and we appreciated that.
We would stay here again.
