The Colonnades 1903 Cool Tones and Beachfront Hues

***Enjoy a stay at The Colonnades at a special rate during an upcoming balcony project. Contact our local team for the best available deal!

Starting on September 3, 2024, this project is expected to continue through December, with the possibility of extending into January 2025, depending on weather conditions. The work includes resurfacing balcony decks and replacing railings, which will make balconies on the south side of the property inaccessible. During this period, the pool and pool deck will also be closed. Please be aware that there will be times of loud noise, especially when work is being done on the balconies.

Property was perfect for our extended family of 8. Beautiful ocean views and clean property. We had a minor issue with the ice maker and clothes dryer but the owner responded immediately and had a technician out within hours to address the issues. I will stay there again when visiting Gulf Shores!

This was a beautiful condo. We enjoyed the decor and furniture arrangement on the balcony. We really enjoyed the outdoor couch and chairs. Our original condo request was having maintenance. We chose to relocate. The staff found this condo and we could not be more pleased. We will definitely stay again.

Great beachfront condo for the whole family

We had 10 total guests ranging from 18 months old to 80. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the fact that we could retreat to our own rooms if we needed a break. The view was fantastic from the 19th floor! We were confused by the process to access the beach and L2 floor for the gym and pool, but the host was easy to contact via phone and walked us through the process! The only downside is the fact there is a 2 car limit for a 4 bedroom property. If you have more cars, you have to park offsite. The recommended location for parking these cars on our 8 day stay was going to be $200/car and is not in reasonable walking distance. Luckily, I was able to do some google searching and found there is free parking on some of the side streets around a 15 minute walk from the condo.

Nice Place

Place was very clean and well appointed. All furniture etc was solid, clean, and nice. There are multiple codes needed (1 for door, 1 for the pool area, and 1 to get to the beach). These weren't provided up front so we ended up having to get the codes a day into our stay which was a small issue. Also the very best weather day of our stay was xmas day when we planned to just relax around the pool but the pool area was closed for some reason and that was never communicated to us. If we wouldn't know that we would've stayed somewhere else. Other than those small issues everything else was fantastic. Having a full size washer/dryer was great and needed because there were very few towels provided so they needed washing constantly.

Great get away place for me, my mom and my 2sisters

We loved this place. My only criticism would be the patio furniture. I loved them and wish I had some, but they need a good cleaning. The most used parts of the chairs are speckled black while the rest of it is clean. Something with bleach would make it look brand new. Will definitely book this condo again.

A Little Taste of Heaven at the Colonnades!

Beautiful, roomy condo. Excellent location to pool, beach, and surrounding areas. Family enjoyed the stay and granddaughter loved the swimming pool. Would definitely stay again if we return to Gulf Shores and the Orange Beach area. Very limited parking, but it worked out OK. We were there at an excellent time, school had started, and not yet Labor Day.
