Ocean Reef 403-Beach side - Perfect Location - 3Bed/2BA Townhouse

*Must be 25 or older - no exceptions!*

Family friendly condo in a quiet setting with no one above you. Prime location on the BEACH SIDE of the boulevard in downtown Gulf Shores with walking distance to plenty of area attractions including restaurants and shopping. Incredibly short walk to The Hangout, Flip Flop Deli Shop, Bahama Bob's Beach Side Cafe, Pink Pony, Pier 33 (groceries), and souvenir shops.

No hassle booking and check-in with KEY-LESS entry! Please let us know who is coming and where you're from.

Low density beach side complex provides a fun setting for a relaxed beach vacation for a large family at a great value. The unit sleeps 9 adults comfortably. With kids you could easily sleep 10 using the pullout couch and/or loading up the bunk beds. The unit has reserved parking with two flights of stairs - no elevator. Being in a town house style will make you feel more a part of the beach compared to a high rise. Enjoy a side view of the beach from EVERY bedroom and a spacious pool area with grills and tables available. We have free WiFi, cable, and 50-55" smart TVs. The pool area is nicely secluded providing convenient family fun and a little more shield on those windy days!

MAIN LEVEL:
The living room offers a leather sofa bed along with two power leather recliners. There are two bedrooms downstairs and a full bath with a tile surround shower. The master has a king platform bed at 16 inch height making it easy to store your suitcase underneath. It features a memory foam mattress with a custom made farm wood head board. Both downstairs bedrooms feature a 50 inch TV, closets, and sliding door to the private balcony for relaxing beach views. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The kitchen is updated with modern backsplash and granite countertops. The dining room has a custom built farmhouse table.

LOFT:
The upstairs loft-bedroom is perfectly set up for a whole separate family. It features a king bed, a twin over full bunk bed and a 50inch TV. Enjoy wonderful views from so many windows. Conveniently, there is a full bath as well upstairs with a tile surround shower.

The complex has public/coin laundry facilities but we conveniently also offer our own stackable washer/dryer in the unit!

PACKING MADE EASY:
-We have a community sharing drawer where you will find trash bags, aluminum foil, sandwich bags, gallon bags, and plastic wrap. There is also a cabinet with basic spices which also includes sugar, baking soda, olive oil, vanilla, flour, brown sugar, vinegar, and non-stick cooking spray. For the benefit of all, we ask that you restock any items as needed.
-We provide all the dishes, silverware, and kitchen utensils and appliances such as a coffee maker, crock pot, blender, toaster, air fryer, pots, pans, bowls, casserole dishes, and pretty much anything you will need to cook full meals.
-For children, we have a mini crib / pack n play fully assembled in the master closet, Fisher Price On-The-Go Shade Dome, and a children’s high chair that can be attached to a kitchen chair.
-Beach towels are rolled and racked next to the front door. Please wash and roll back up before checkout. Two beach chairs are available as well.

No pets and no smoking! Parking $30 per car per stay. Covered and reserved parking directly under the unit with enough length for two vehicles. The complex has good lighting all hours of the night, a security/parking guard, and the unit has a doorbell camera. The pool is serviced professionally but is not heated.

We hope you enjoy your vacation and experience what Gulf Shores has to offer! You will not regret the unit and especially not the location!

It was overall a good stay! But if you pay a cleaning service to clean your condo they are not doing it properly! We cleaned before unpacking ! Easy check in , kitchen well stocked! Wifi kept going in and out ! great pool at resort and easy access to beach !

Over all

The floors could use a little better cleaning. Overall the place is nice. The only thing misleading is beach front view. There where a few units in front of ours so you didn’t walk out of your unit into the sand.

Awesome Vacation!

We had a wonderful time! The property is nice. The pool was great. The beach is within walking distance. Plenty of shops and places to eat around within walking distance also. Only downfall is there are a good amount of steps up to the condo, but we were well aware. I will take the steps than to stay in a high rise! Excellent communication regarding the place. I recommend 10 out of 10! If we come back down I definitely will be inquiring this place! :)

First visit Gulf Shores

Our townhouse provided plenty of room for our family of 7 total. Loved the easy beach access and the beach chairs and beach towels provided by our host.The kitchen was well stocked for cooking in some evenings.The pool was very close and convenient especially since we had a lot of red flag days. Would totally recommend.

This property is amazing! We have stayed there three years in a row during our spring break. Close to amenities and restaurants. And the beach is literally ten steps away! The owners are amazing and are always so friendly and helpful! We will definitely be back!

Vacation

This condo was perfect for our family of 7. Everyone had a place to sleep and plenty of room. The walk to the beach was perfect and a small view of the beach from the back balcony was great or a pool view from the front. Walking distance to many local places. Would definitely stay there again. Owners were easy to get a hold of for any questions.

Overall a nice place to stay

It was a nice location and we enjoyed our stay. However, we were on the 3rd floor (we expected the 2nd from pics on the listing) with no elevator. Daily we could handle this, but arriving, coming back with big grocery haul, and departing were not fun to navigate on the stairs. Also, we could barely see the ocean between two buildings. We were expecting ocean front from the listing. Again, overal it was nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Nice place

We were pleased with the townhouse. It was clean and there were plenty of towels, beach towels, and linens. The kitchen had the basic things we needed and the beds were comfortable. Beach chairs and sand toys were also provided which was helpful. The walk to the beach was short. Our host was quick to respond and helpful. Overall we had a very nice stay.

Spring Break with teenagers

We had a large group, including five teenagers, and they all had a wonderful time they were able to walk to ice cream shops, and to the stores nearby as they were directly across the street or just down the street. We were able to walk to most restaurants that we wanted to try which helped avoid finding parking. It was a bit of a walk to the beach, so would recommend a wagon to help get yours items there if you were in a large group. The kitchen has all the items you would need to prepare meals with a Walmart within 10 minutes to get your groceries. Also had lots of sand, toys and chairs to use.
