Amazing condo, view and convenient location for walking to shops, restaurants and exploring Gulf Shores. Terry is an awesome host and was responsive to our questions. Everything was as described and a great location on the beach. The outdoor pool was heated. There were some beach supplies in the closet (chairs, umbrella, toys). Overall, we had a great time and this condo was perfect.
