Island Royale P 501

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Less than a mile west of the main Gulf Shores Public Beach entrance and rising high above the Gulf of Mexico is Island Royale.

Featuring a swim-through indoor/outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, steam room and expansive beachfront, Island Royale is a place that encourages you to stay outdoors and take full advantage of the beautiful coastal sunshine.

Once in your condo, be sure to spend time lounging on your private balcony watching the sun rise and set peacefully over the Gulf. Rest and relax in comfort and style in your living area as you reconnect with family and friends. Your kitchen is fully equipped to prepare every meal.

Thanks to the condo's proximity to numerous restaurants (seafood, burgers, steaks, spicy Cajun cuisine and more!), save time in the kitchen and go out to eat!

After dinner, head up Hwy. 59 to Pirate's Island or The Track for an evening of miniature golf, thrilling amusement park rides and arcade fun. Or, check out some of the beach boutiques just north of the beach. Shop for that swimsuit you've been wanting at one of the giant beach stores nearby. Live entertainment can be found any time of year at places like the iconic Hangout Restaurant of Hangout Music Festival fame. Head out to the courtyard for a bubble party or to play silly games.

Your condo a few minutes' drive from Gulf State Park, where you'll find a variety of fun activities such as a nature center, a beach pavilion, a giant fishing pier that juts 1,500+ feet out into the Gulf, backcountry trails and so much more.

When you want a relaxing beach vacation that puts you near the fun of Gulf Shores' beach entertainment district, choose Island Royale. You'll be glad you did.

Outdated and unclean
Would never stay at this unit ever again. It was very nasty, roaches everywhere. The furniture was very outdated, the beds were terribly old and uncomfortable. Balcony furniture was not fit for a beach balcony and chairs are broken. The appliances were so old and outdated, refrigerator has exposed wires inside. The walls were even filthy. Bathrooms are dirty and stained. The only good feature of the entire place was the view of the 12th story ocean view. I was very disappointed in this unit.

Still nice after 15 yrs away
We have not visited Island Royale in about 15 years. The property has been maintained as we hoped, favorite restaurants did not disappoint, and grocery options were nearby and sufficient. If we weren't so far away, we would visit annually! This specific unit was as described and met the needs of our family of five. Great beach vacation for us.

Decent Stay
Saw 2 cockroaches in the kitchen during our stay. That was our biggest gripe. Furniture is dated and the beds have seen better days. The view however was incredible, and easy access to the beach. Probably wouldn’t stay here again unfortunately. Would stay at Island Royale but a different unit.

Definitely worth it!
We very much loved our stay! The condo was roomy and very nice and clean. The gulf view from the balcony was awesome! Literally steps from the beach and plenty of shopping and restaurants close by. We would stay here again for sure!

Beautiful view. Needs updated
The location is very beautiful but this unit is better suited for a college party crowd and not a relaxing beach vacation for a family. The unit was full of bugs mainly in the kitchen area. No kitchen towels. Just enough towels to shower once before needing to do laundry. No extra pillows or blankets. Unit in need of a deep cleaning and new furniture. Table was over sized making it hard to navigate the dinning room. Couch and chair visibly worn and stained. Outdoor furniture functional but not comfortable. Not relaxing or cozy at all.

What a Dump
This place needs to be upgraded badly. Between nats coming out of the garbage disposal floors filthy dishes and pots in cupboard dirty. We went out and had to buy new pillows the furniture was so worn out you might as well sat on the floor. The beds were in poor condition also. Needless to say we got a surprise when we stripped the beds as the had foam stuffed in holes that sank down. This whole trip was such a a disappointment that honestly if we could have gotten a refund we would have left. We will never book with this company again!!

Terrible facility
Loved nothing. Seating room in living room would not accommodate 6 even though unit for 8. Two irons didn’t work, dvd didn’t work, can opener didn’t work, furnished from thrift store likely, no response from Vacasa for help during stay.

Good location, subpar cleaning, upgrades needed
Great location, roomy enough for our bunch of 8, great balcony space. No extra bedding provided for the pull out sofa. All furniture in the condo needs a serious upgrade. Kitchen chairs and bar stools were wobbly and unstable. Several maintenance issues needed to be taken care of in the kitchen and bathrooms. When paying for a “penthouse”, I expect it to feel like a penthouse. Also, the condo was not clean upon arrival. This is my second experience with Vacasa in a month where I have arrived to a subpar (if any) cleaning job. Food on the floor, fridge not cleaned, etc. For the price of fees for cleaning in particular they need to do better.

Great location, beautiful views, little overpriced.
So we did love our stay. I will say it has a great location, beautiful views, a nice pool, clean beach, good parking, but overall I do think our condo was a little overpriced. I think the condo itself was a little outdated. I wish we would of had a vacuum. The master bed wasn't very comfortable and was very loud... the towels were so "linty", do not wash or dry with anything else or you clothes will be covered. There were a couple hairs in the shower when we arrived. I let them know and they apologized. I just cleaned it with a clorox wipe. I would stay here again, but it won't be for a while because it's so costly.

Great place to stay
The large balcony and view of sea and sand. Bedrooms each with a bathroom. Large table and chairs. Well supplied kitchen. No sheets for sofa bed which we did not use. All double beds, one room with 2 singles would have been better for us.
