Could not get to the pier easy by walking. No beach access. Nesting ground area is part of path to pier. No access during bird nestling season. Drove over to pier but had to pay for parking. We would have had free pier access once we got to pier. Needless to say, we did not walk on pier. Paid daily parking during stay - valet/covered parking added cost. Parking is down the hill from hotel. A bit of a walk. For above issues would not stay again. Otherwise, great hospitality, clean hotel, beach access a plus. Great views.

LOVED this property. Quiet and clean and only property on the Gulf Shores State Park. Loved our room with balcony facing the gulf. Staff was friendly, property clean and felt very safe. We were there on the tail end of the winter season so not busy but the beach was great! The Gulf Shores area was fabulous. Although it is not an all-inclusive, it felt like on. Short trip to restaurants and bars. Will book again for sure!

The property was easily accessible- clean and welcoming- we didn’t like that our room seemed to be at the forefront of the traffic on our floor causing it to be a bit noisy at times

We stayed in mid/late February, which was perfect! Turns out the regular “season” and parking restrictions within the community begin March 1st. The hotel has a private beach and is clean, nice, and well suited for family trips. Would visit again!

Make sure you calculate $16 a day to park minimum. On an unsecure surface lot. I don't like surprise add-ons. Still, it was a very nice place. We would definitely consider going back but now I know more of the price to compare to others.
