The only thing good about this condo is the view and a clean pool.There is carpet in the kids room that is moldy and makes the whole place smell musty There was mold on the dining room chairs and the outdoor seating as well. Our power was cut off during our stay which put a damper on our day. We love gulf shores and will return. We just won't come back to Gulf Tower

The Condo was great! The kitchen was equipped better than any condo I’ve rented and I have rented many. The service was way above average. There was a problem with the air and when I text the host, they answered in a few minutes. They conversed with me until a service man could come to fix the problem. The issue was fixed in minutes. The next day someone was there to give an estimate on a new air unit. We were so pleased since we haven’t had that communication in other rentals. Thanks to all

Vacation getaway!!

Our stay at Gulf Tower was absolutely wonderful. The place was clean and spacious. It literally has everything you need for a vacation getaway. The patio that overlooks the ocean and Pool was beautiful. That ocean breeze is like no other. We are so thankful we found this place and will definitely be staying here on our next visit.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a no frills place. It’s clean, close to everything my family liked to do, and has everything you need minus a hairdryer, but I always bring mine with me. The balcony was great to sit and watch dolphins swim by every morning or the kids in the pool. The downside is the parking lot is small if you have a big vehicle.
