About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Welcome to your affordable beach vacation

Welcome to my piece of paradise! This is a 2 bedroom 1 1/2 bath condo that has been renovated with new appliances and bedding. An Electronic Door Locking System (so you no longer have to keep up with a key unless you want to). Also, recently updated1st and 2nd floor.
New flooring throughout the 1st and 2nd floors and a completely renovated full bathroom. The tub has been removed and replaced with a beautiful RAIN SHOWER with glass doors and 6 individual shelves. You can now keep your stuff in the shower without packing it all up and take it back to your room.
Not to mention, but I will: brand new wood looking tile floor continued into the rain shower with two shower heads. And if that is not enough, OAK STAIR CAPS!!

Just in, another upgrade. The Master Bedroom now has a SLEEP NUMBER KING SIZE BED!!! All bedding is supplied with 600 thread count Egyptian Cotton Sheets and pillowcases along with HOTEL LUXURY thick towels and hand towels.

A fully equipped kitchen with icemaker, dishwasher and microwave. This condo is a mere 100 yards from the beach with (Deeded BEACH Access right across the street) and ALL the AMENITIES For Rent Right there such as LOUNGERS with UMBRELLAS, Banana Boat Rides, and PARASAILING!! Located on desirable East Beach Blvd.... YOU are within walking distance of numerous restaurants, including Sea and Suds:(on Pier), The Pink Pony:(on Pier), The Hangout, Mikee's Seafood, Shrimp Basket, Bicycle Rental Store, Hooters, Desoto's, SURF SIDE MARKET for your Grocery needs and many more. For those late-night munchies, Waffle House is right next door.

You will have an easy 3 block walk to The HANGOUT MUSIC FESTIVAL AND THE SHRIMP FESTIVAL. Why buy a bus pass and have to wait for it to show up with the rest of the crowds when you can avoid ALL that TRAFFIC and HEADACHE and just take an easy walk to your POOL and Condo.

Whenever you have had enough of the beach, come relax in the beautiful pool surrounded by palm trees that provide you with some shade if needed. There are three grills and picnic tables available for your grilling pleasure. There is an on-site coin operated laundry room with 5 washers and 5 dryers. You will also have (2) assigned covered parking spaces. But you are so close to so many things, you may not even need to drive anywhere. Sit back and relax.

I think you will enjoy my condo as much as I do. Thank you for YOUR Patronage.

We rented the condo while in town for a baseball tournament. The condo was great and met or exceeded all my expectations based on the description and pictures. The walk to the beach was easy and the pool was never crowded. Parking was also convenient. Our sons enjoyed the close proximity to lots of restaurants and things to do. Jeff was easy to work with and I would stay here again if we return to Gulf Shores.

We came to Gulf Shores to visit our daughter. The location was great, the condo was perfect for the 3 of us, and the beds were so comfortable. The owner was quick to respond and very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again if we have the chance.

Worth it!!!

If you want to be steps away from the beach but don’t want to pay ocean front prices this is the place! Not only is it conveniently located to all the local attractions the condo is beautifully updated. We enjoyed the modern kitchen, rain shower, and comfortable beds. The owner was wonderful to work with and we appreciated his kindness to our family. We will definitely book another stay in the future.

Birthday trip to the Gulf
