We had a wonderful time . The codo was very clean and we loved the pool area. Only complaint i had was the garbage disposable was backed up and the front bedroom bath didn’t drain good . Oh and the board over the kitchen cabinet fell off. Call for repairs to be made but nobody showed up . I would definitely rent again .

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the location and the condo suits us fine. As Snowbirds, this was our 5th year in this condo and have reserved it for next year. Every year I mention that a table on the balcony would be great. A bigger TV in the living room would be nice too. The carpets could use a good cleaning, other than that, all good!

They wouldn't help us!
Told us middle bedroom had a leak at check in and floor was damp. When we got there it was saturated. Leaked the whole time. Repair man came out once, blamed us and was rude, did nothing. We had to move the people out of that bedroom to the living room due to meldew smell. Half eaten chips and dental floss was laying on one bed. Location great though. We just needed it fixed!

Location was superb, but misrepresented the property on renovation details.
Loved the location, but was told in pre-arrival communications that all renovations were complete in this unit and the building, and when we arrived, we had workers on balcony to gulf view, and balcony was completely closed. I would have selected another property if they had given me accurate information.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. Even though it was the beginning of spring break uou would have never known in the building. The only thing I would have changed it the lock on the door still uses a key and dead bolt. That is the only way to make sure door is locked probably time to upgrade to a keypad. Othere then that over all Condo and location was awesome.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We just finished our 4th winter stay in Ocean House 1206 and have reserved it for next winter. We like the decor and the convenience of just walking one flight to and from the parking area. Only complaints would be that a table on the balcony would be nice and some better frying pans.

Great location but lots of roaches!
The property was in a great location. Because it was only on the second floor we took the stairs most of the time. When we needed the elevator it was very fast. The condo had plenty of room for the 6 of us and was well stocked. However..... there were many roaches of varying ages that we saw daily. They were on the kitchen cabinets and in the pantry/closet. I contacted the property manager via their "fix-it" form and requested a response. I never received one. If it wasn't for the roaches we would stay at this condo again. We never saw any roaches in the bedrooms or bathrooms, only the kitchen.

Very very disappointed in this unit at Ocean House. I have stayed at this condo complex for 19 years and never had a problem. This particular unit had German roaches very bad. I reached out to management complex to assist and they did respond very fast. They sent a maintenance man with spray from a local hardware store to spray baseboards and such. I assured them that will not kill them. We went to buy our own Raid roach spray to kill them on contact. The roach motels were not even working. They were crawling all around them. We could not leave anything on the floors for fear we would be taking them home. Everytime we cooked we had to clean all counters and wash dishes prior to use. The drains in the sinks and showers are very slow drain as well. I hope the owner of this unit sees this and can correct this issue. This will definitely hurt there income.

Our First Trip to Gulf Shores
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ocean House is one of the smaller condo units in Gulf Shores. We enjoyed our stay there. The pool is a zero entry and one of the biggest pools by the beach. The unit was clean and well stocked with the items we needed to get us started. We did have an issue with some electrical in the front master but it was reported. The unit was on the second floor and had a great view of the ocean. Our family really enjoyed it.

Looks can be deceiving
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is in a great location and looks nice but needs some work. When we arrived, the disposal backed up into the other side of the sink. The bathtub in the beach front room didn’t drain correctly. The master garden tub was turned into a shower and not done correctly because water would flow out all over the floor. We had to use lots of extra wash clothes and bath towels to try and stop this. It’s clearly been a problem for a while because there is damage to the floor and wall near it. I’m sure there has to be mold in there. The worst part to me was that there is clearly a roach problem! They were everywhere! We killed at least 20 while we were there. I would not recommend this property!

Beachside location is great.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is roomy - and is well equipped in the kitchen if you should want to cook. We did not. Location is great for traveling up and down the strip to dining out. The beach is not a wide one so for older people it is easy to get to. The pool area is nice. Even though we were on the second floor it was quiet. Now the condo could use some updates. Twin mattresses need to be replaced. If it were me I would figure out how to put a king in the front bedroom, queen in the center bedroom and two doubles in the street side bedroom. It would be more practical. Less furniture in two of the bedrooms would accomplish that . Who needs a love seat in the bedroom at the beach. You could not ask for a nicer rental company to deal with while on vacation. TVs were a challenge. Hint- front bedroom tv is controlled by the light switch. No instructions at all on anything in the condo except the arm bands. Wear your arm bands - security is on the ball and will ask you where they are. Did see a bug - but the bug man came by and sprayed on one of the days we were there. All and all we had a wonderful time. But again some painting and deep cleaning is due.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit looked as if it had been freshly painted and some new furnishings displayed, so it was very pretty. I feel like the garden tub should be replaced with a walk-in shower because the after market hand held shower nozzle ran water on to the floor. The middle bedroom had a shower leak around the grout of the tile near the floor and displayed some black mold. The lights flickered the whole weeks stay. We love the gulf shores area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great Condo and great value! Just as pictured on VRBO. A/C was out when we arrived, contacted property management and they had someone there within 10 mins. It was Sunday, part not available till Monday. Monday 8am, showed up and repaired everything. Never seen such responsiveness and courtesy. Very impressed. Location was perfect. Smaller beach crowds than when we walked toward Orange beach and waves were great. Brand new sand rinsing station from beach. Blocks from convenience stores and restaurants. Not a new building but well maintained. Dish TV, each bedroom with a bathroom made it better for us with 3 boys. Corner condo so only one common wall and loved the larger unit and 3rd bedroom. This unit has some palm trees partially blocking beach view but not much. Kitchen was well stocked and laundry was easy to handle towels, etc.Only suggestion for property owners, replace carpet and mattress in master bedroom. All other beds were good. We will be back and would definitely recommend to others needing 3 beds and baths.
