Bluewater 1501

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

Bright tropical decor lifts your spirit as you overlook the turquoise-blue waters of the Gulf from high above the beach on the 15th floor at Bluewater 1501. Your spacious wrap-around balcony at this corner condo is well-appointed and adjoins the living room and primary bedroom. The seating arrangement includes two comfy recliners in the living room. Relaxation is the name of the game with adventure right around the corner if you choose this gorgeous escapade.

Just beyond your sliding glass doors that open to your private balcony lie the beauty and magnificence of the sugar-white sands along the shore of the Gulf of Mexico. These warm waters and soft sandy beaches beckon you to indulge all of your senses as you take in the sights and sounds of Alabama's Gulf Coast. Bluewater is conveniently positioned in Orange Beach, Alabama near an abundance of local boutiques and shops, locally-owned fresh seafood restaurants, and the largest charter boat fleet in the Southeast with over 100 saltwater and in-shore charter fishing choices. There are numerous Alabama Gulf State Park public beach access opportunities nearby. Boating and water-themed activities such as kayaking, paddle boarding, dolphin cruises, and parasailing are plentiful near your home base at Bluewater. Land lovers will be delighted with the close proximity of the Hugh S. Branyon Back Country Trail, which provides hikers and bicyclists a series of seven trails among six ecosystems covering over 15 miles of natural wonder.

Well worth it
The view was amazing!! All 3 bedrooms had balcony access, and plenty of comfy seating for us. We were having a mother-daughter vacation with 4 of us total (ages 55-87), and thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely worth every penny. I hope to reserve this room again in future.

Nice corner unit with great views!
The wrap around bacolny on this unite provides great views. A nice place to view the sunrise with a cup of coffee. Relax here after a long day enjoying the beach with a glass of wine while listening to the waves roll in. It can also be used to store beach chairs, coolers, etc. Just nothing that could blow away of course. We had a very relaxing weekend here and would love to visit again.

Only thing I did not like was the height. We were too high up(15th floor) so we rarely left the place. Overall, it was a great stay.

Family Vacay
Condo was nice and well decorated. Loved the end unit. The furniture was comfy and ample seating is provided. Beautiful views from the balcony. Things that we felt could be improved: the floors were very dirty. Our feet stayed black and disgusting. I vacummed and swept the balcony but it didn't help. We were always washing our feet. We felt they could upgrade the towels. They were very small, thin and rough. The kitchen dishes were DIRTY. From the silverware to the glassware. Lots of rusted silverware and only one or two actual drinking glasses were available. Overall we enjoyed our stay here but for the price, I would not stay in this condo again.

Just ok..
Pros- location was close to alot of store's and beach front. The large wrap around balcony was everyone's favorite. Cons- Master shower curtain had alot of mold along with shower knob. The kitchen had a plug putlet was comimg off the wall. They only provide a very thin blanket for each bed which was more like a sheet. No extra blankets anywhere. The kitchen was not well stocked if your planning on cooking bring your own mixing bowls. There was no coffee or filters provided which most hotles and vrbos provide. If your staying there for more then a couple of days you will need toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags, dish washing detergent because they only provided enough for a couple of days. For the price we paid we should have had enough of basic supplies for that it was a disappointment.

Over all the stay was very nice just a few things need attention. The sliding doors from the living room and master bed room need attention, the electrical outlets are loose, and the stove is a little difficult to work.

Condo with an Amazing View
Condo on the 15th floor had the most amazing view. This is our family’s favorite place to stay. Condo was clean, smelled fresh and we can’t wait to come back. Thank you Vacasa Team. It was a pleasure booking with you.

Pleasant Vacation Stay
Bluewater had a great deck with wonderful views of both sunrise and sunset. We spent a lot of time on the deck. Condo was very nice with comfortable furniture and a great dining table where we tried to complete a 1500 piece jigsaw puzzle - to no avail! Lots of chipped coffee mugs and dishes and only one blanket for a 3 bedroom unit. We would definitely come back again.

Mixed up a bit
Bluewater1501 was delightful, but some cons were evident. Make no mistake, we would go back in an instant, and you would choose well if you picked this property. Some of the minor problems were, I think, the rental agency's responsibility. Burned out light bulbs, summer bugs still in the overhead kitchen light, water heater turned way down. We had to leave a couple of hours between short showers to have enough hot water. They turned it up, but it did not help much. I would imagine the owner would be the one to install a larger water heater. The shower/faucet screeched in a horribly way when used. Also, the refrigerator ice maker made a terrible noise when it was making ice. Appliances need to be upgrades badly, and the cleaning crew needs to be watched more carefully.We never met with nor were we allowed to talk to the owner. Another time a man who was checking for a water leak somewhere in the building just unlocked our door and walked in, announcing he was there to check the leak. We knew nothing about a leak, were not informed there was a leak, and he did not even knock on the door. Towards the end of our stay the entry lock malfunctioned, we were given the wrong code to get back in, and had to go to the rental office to get the correct one. The vents in both bathrooms were caked with dust and barely functioning. But what I believe were the owner's responsibility fell a bit short also. The shower heads in both bathrooms were ancient and had a very poor water flow. Pressure was fine, but the heads were not. Maintenance switched the heads for us so at least the master bath was better. The main problem was the living room furniture. Cute at one time, it was very old and well-used. The sofa bed was so uncomfortable that it was an embarrassment when our son visited over Christmas and had to sleep on it. My husband and I took turns between sitting on the sofa and the one chair. They were both uncomfortable but the sofa was worse. It was not enjoyable sitting on that furniture for a month. But the balcony was worth it all. It was amazing. By all means, rent this unit just for that. In all, the unit was decorated in a charming manner, very bright and cheery. We loved it.

Top floor, wifi and blue-ray. Close to grocery stores. Our 5 year old and 75 year old loved it! When they got hot, we went to indoor pool. Fun, fun and fun! Will be back!
