The lights did not work in the hall way bathroom, my husband bought light bulbs and changed them out, the stove burners do not properly sit in the drip pans and only 2 sit evenly, the oven had such a terrible odor we didn't even use it. Multiple dishes we got out of the cabinets were dirty and some washed everything before using it, the refrigerator has the bottom part the enables it from closing completely and you have to push at the bottom for it to close completely. There are ZERO batteries in the fan remotes so they are stuck on low unless you buy your own batteries like we did. The internet is terrible and you can not stream Netflix and the remote in the bedroom is broken and you have to tap the side of it to get any thing to work. The master bed is ridiculous and uncomfortable. It literally creeks with every move you make waking someone up everytime you move or role over. We also got a stripped quilt out of the closet and it was covered in urine and you could see it on the back of the quilt where it was white, so we then took out the down comforter and it was disgustingly dirty and discolored. We even washed our sheets when we got there because we pulled back the covers and they looked like they were not changed . The chain above the bed in the bedroom are COVERED in dirt. The cabinets are falling apart in the kitchen as well. Lastly, we met people who are OWNERS and checked out their places - WOW. What a difference and not to mention, this highly upset me, the fact we

Spacious but dated

The unit is well laid out and in a perfect location. The entire unit is dated and could seriously benefit from a couple of upgrades, specifically the appliances, plumbing fixtures and mattresses. I don’t need cool or trendy furniture, after all I’m not planning to live there, but the plumbing fixtures are so old that it’s difficult to adjust hot/cold, the stove and fridge are on their last breath (though the dishwasher and washer/dryer were great!) and the mattresses are painfully uncomfortable. Those things didn’t hinder a great vacation and we would come back to this unit again for this price.

Needs to be updated

Great location but needs to be updated everything was out dated & the condo could’ve been cleaned a little better They also didn’t mention they maybe be renovating I guess(I hope) because there were wires hanging from the ceiling on the walkway to our condo which were very unsafe & blankets were up in the elevators which made it extremely hot look like they had been up for a while. Also my sister had to pay $25 to park down the street at the main office because they only allow 1 car per guest I just thought $25 was a little much.

A relaxing getaway

My recent 5-night, 6-day stay at The Gulf Tower in Gulf Shores was an enjoyable, leaving us with fond memories of a relaxing beach getaway. From the moment we checked in, the process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. A special mention goes to Mac, the adorable and super-friendly white lab, who made the office visits even more delightful. The condo itself had its ups and downs, but overall, it provided a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. Upon entering the condo, I noticed that it was a bit smaller than what the pictures had portrayed, but it was still decent and had a welcoming feel to it. The first bedroom, featuring a trundle bed with a full bed on top and a twin bed below, was a practical space-saving solution. I appreciated the design of the bed, allowing for extra space when not in use. The only downside was the limited lighting, with some of the lamps not functioning correctly, and light pouring in from the outside hallway, but it didn't hinder our stay significantly. However, it's worth mentioning that our stay coincided with some construction activity, which led to some inconvenience. The limited operational elevator caused occasional waiting times, especially during peak hours. One point of contention was the strictness regarding parking warnings. While we displayed our parking tag, we received a warning due to a minor visibility issue. I’d recommend you stay at Gulf Tower for a beach getaway. Thank you!

Great Location at a Cute Condo

Our family (2 adults & 2 teens) stayed in this property during our recent trip to Gulf Shores. The location was great -perfect view, right on the beach and overlooking the pool. We were close to restaurants and shops, which made it easy to get where we wanted to go. The property itself is cute and has all you need (full kitchen, washer/dryer, plenty of room for 4 people). The beds were not the most comfortable, but overall, it was a great place to stay for a few days. The rental company was very helpful and great to work with. We would rent from them again.

Very disappointed!

We were very disappointed with our condo! The floors were filthy, sand in the bed when we arrived, the bathrooms had long hairs on the sides of the showers and the furniture smelled of body odor. We paid a lot of money to ensure we had a nice place to stay. Unfortunately, this condo was not it! We feel they should refund part of our money.

I would stay there again, if you are a simple person and don't need to much this is the place for you. I was in town for the outdoor naia track and field meet and it was only a 15 minute drive to the sports complex. The condo was right on the beach with a great view.

Gulf Shores is Beautiful and Waking Up to the Beach is Amazing!

This place was exactly what we needed! Steps to the beach straight past the great pool and your feet are in the sand! Didn’t spend much time in the condo as the beach and pool is where it’s all happening for us! Visited several local places and had a blast. Would stay at this condo again as it was clean, cool, and perfect location!
