Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent our 20th Anniversary at Royal Palms 601. This was our 4th stay in Gulf Shores with Bender Realty, friendly staff as usual and we loved meeting Mac. Shout out to the owners who provide a personal touch for your calm and peaceful setting for the stay. The high-top table and chairs were great for the viewing the dolphins in the surf and the watching the storms roll through. We will see you next year!

We enjoy staying at Royal Palms because of location. This condo has a great layout so you don't feel cramped. This is the cleanest condo we have stayed in.

Overall, we were very pleased with our trip to Golf Shores and our stay at the Caribbean condominiums. The location directly on the beach was nice and in close proximity to much shopping and restaurants. The condo floors could be cleaned much better as they are tile and tend to soil your feet and footwear in a short period of time Utensils and baking dishes. There is a variety, but not the easiest if you enjoy cooking.

We had a wonderful stay to celebrate our mother’s 89th birthday…having the wooden walkway to the beach was especially great and the view was amazing.
Thank you!

This is the 2nd time I've stayed in #247 Sugar Beach condo and absolutely adore it. It's a pretty side view of the beach but one is able to watch the waves. The studio has everything you need, comfortable for 1-2 people. I was impressed how clean and tidy it was. The only flaw is the sliding glass door to patio needs to have some WD-40 on the track and lock replaced. This studio condo is ideal located on the beach, 4 swimming pools, a tennis court and the Sugar Shack is open for food, snack, and drinks. The communication with Bender Vacation Rentals was great and easy to get a hold of (I didn't have any issues with condo so I don't know how communication is after hours). I'm looking forward to booking #247 again next year!! I adore Sugar Beach condos!

My wife and I stayed here for our baby moon and this condo was perfect for us! The location is convenient to everything in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, the views are great, and the condo/beach is not overly crowded like some of the other larger buildings. We would definitely stay here again!

The condo was clean and had comfortable seating. Amenities we appreciated included an ice maker, living room and bedroom fans, extra towels and nice televisions. Location was great; condo was quiet, fewer people on the beach. Plenty of parking, and elevators worked well. The wraparound balcony was an extra treat.

Property is well kept, clean and peaceful. We immediately felt at home when we entered 309A. Beds were comfortable and the walk-in shower was a plus. You can relax on the balcony or in the living room area. We will definitely be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great. This was our first family vacation with our kids and grandparents. We had everything to cook with and wash our sandy clothes in. We really enjoyed our stay. The company texted me making sure everything was ok and if anything needed our attention. We requested an early check in and we got it as well. “Hope” was also very helpful when we were planning our trip. She gave me all the information I needed and made me feel comfortable.

Fantastic location and the interaction with the property management was good. The condo is nice but a bit outdated - meaning it could use some painting and general maintenance. My biggest complaint regarding the condo was the lack of a blackout curtain in the bedroom. Since the exterior lighting by the elevator is on all night, this caused the bedroom to have a lot of light - even with the blinds drawn and curtains closed. Overall, it was a great experience and would recommend it to everyone.

My wife and I spent a workweek stay that really made the grade at Gulf Tower on the Gulf Shores Beach! Our rental was conveniently situated on a portion of the beach that almost felt private, involved less traffic and provided unobstructed views of the Gulf. We really desired privacy and were amply rewarded. Bender Properties were very easy to work with and checked on us several times via text messages to make sure we were satisfied. We loved our experience!

Staff were pleasant. Location was good. The condo was nice. Decor was nice as well. It is in need of some updates - furniture has seen better days, tile is older, but for our purposes it was fine.

We came for the NCAA beach volleyball championships - so needed a place close to the main beach and courts - we also needed two beds two bathrooms and a comfy place to hang out between games! This was the perfect location - quiet - right on the gorgeous beach - as well as a beach front pool - but the condo itself was absolutely darling and perfectly clean! Everything felt brand new - the decor was beachy and cute, two rooms with comfy king size beds and their own bathrooms - which were updated with fun tile and design! They had beach chairs - umbrellas - charging stations an extra blankets - when we got there the AC was on which was refreshing coming off a humid hot volleyball court :). We were able to cook our own meals - had every thing we needed to prepare meals which was awesome. We had constant communication from property and couldn’t have asked for anything more! We are hotel people but I’ve changed my mind after this stay. I felt like I was in my own beach house - it was so gorgeous inside. I will also say - from the outside of the condo - I wasn’t expecting it to be so pretty and remodeled on the inside! It all felt brand new!

Clearwater 4C value exceeded what we paid. Most other 1BR units in area were significantly higher. Very clean and everything worked great. Unit was pretty and decorated nicely. Relaxing to be in. The recliner chair was good touch. Nothing tore up. Shower/tub is a little skinny. Nice hot water. Good views of beach/Gulf. Washer and dryer are great and very handy. Washer is noisy, just throw your load in while out. We don't walk, but food and entertainment were close. There are no ceiling fans so you may want to bring a fan. Bender Rentals was great to work with made things very easy on their part. Very good unit and I would rent again.
