About this property

Penthouse - Gulf front, great pool, massive balcony!

Highlights

Where to begin!? This recently updated, beachfront penthouse condo is an absolute oasis. For starters, the balcony must be seen to be believed. It is massive and includes loungers as well as a dining table and chairs. You'll want to enjoy dining al fresco or spend time here just savoring the views. Step inside and you'll adore the oversized living space with a "viewing" bar facing the gulf. This is the absolute perfect spot for that morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. Comfortable seating, a large screen TV and an open floor plan will ensure your group enjoys their stay.

The Space

The kitchen features new quartz countertops, new custom cabinets, new stainless appliances and a breakfast bar with seating for 4. The open floor plan allows even the cooks in the group to savor those amazing views.

The oversized master bedroom contains a king bed, private bath and direct balcony access. You'll also find a comfortable swivel chair and large screen TV. Or use the chair to take in the great views from the bedroom!

Two additional, nicely decorated bedrooms have a king and a queen bed. These two bedrooms share a hall bath.

The kids in your group (or even young at heart adults!) will fall in love with the "kids" retreat. Two twin beds, an oversized bean bag and a fun table and chairs complete this room. Oh, and did we mention a large screen TV?

The Gulf Tower is in the heart of Gulf Shores, is direct beach front, and is convenient to everything this coastal town has to offer - restaurants, shopping, bike & scooter rentals, water park, golf, and outlet shopping.


Great condo, great pool, incredible beach! We're sure you'll enjoy this beachfront condo so much that you'll be back again and again.

Parking: Parking pass is required per vehicle. A maximum of 2 parking passes per reservation. One pass is included with your reservation fees. If needed, an additional pass may be purchased for $40.00.

Excellent Stay

The property was actually larger than I thought it would be. Very well appointed. The outdoor space is breathtaking. Centrally located and the pools and beach are steps away. I highly recommend this condo. Great for families to relax with one another.

Stay

We really enjoyed our stay and the location of the condo. The only complaint we have was the master bedroom and the room beside it didn’t have good airflow. It stayed hot in those rooms. Besides that, we would book this condo again.

Amazing

The property was perfect. It’s amazing what you can see from the 14th floor. Birds were eye level. The kids loved being able to look down and see dolphins in the water. My family absolutely loved the condo. Perfect amount of space and the bonus kids room was a plus. Will stay here again. Thanks for sharing!

Great vacation

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 vacation rental! Fit our group wonderfully. The kids all had room to hang and separate when needed. The twin room/ gaming area gets a little warm but a good fan helps. Great amount of kitchen items

Gulf tower 14e

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The positives are that this company is awesome, very responsive and easy to deal with, room is beautiful, views are great too. The negatives are the room wasn’t cleaned well, you can’t leave your stuff in the little cove next to the room even if you’re only 1 of 2 rooms on the floors because it will be moved and then it will get stolen. The main bedroom is right next to the elevators and it’s loud so bring earplugs. While the gated pool and beach access is nice to deter non staying people it can also be annoying. No covered parking either and no bathroom at the pool either.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was better than anticipated. Easily fit 8 of us, could have fit more. Very clean. Nice upgrades. Master bath is beautiful. Closet in master is HUGE! The views from the large window in the living space are breath taking. The private rooftop patio is well furnished and has an amazing view.You are STEPS from the sand. Easy to take items for kids and the whole family and not have to walk a mile. Overall this location is beautiful and just perfect.

Nice and very spacious- perfect for family of 8

Nice, beautifully decorated condo that was roomy enough for all 8 of us. Plenty of seating in the living room that we could all sit together comfortably. The couch was huge and super comfy. The large private balcony was very nice with plenty of seating and extra dining space. The beds were some of the most comfortable of any we’ve slept on during vacation. The full size high end washer and dryer was a great perk! The condo was pretty clean but there were a few issues. The master bath still had a bar of soap with short hairs stuck all over it and black mold in the grooves of the wall tiles close to the Shower floor that broke loose and kind of dangled during our stay. There was also a thick black ring of black mold under the rim of the master toilet that continued to break off in chunks while we were there. There were also long dark hairs in the bathroom drawers. In the second bath, the tub drain was clogged and you would be standing in ankle deep water by the end of your shower. There were crumbs in the silverware drawer and a piece of what appeared to be cucumber peel sticking out from the side of one of the knives. All of the beds had thick dust/dust bunnies underneath them as well. Other than these little issues, that I feel are completely related to the cleaning service used, it was a fantastic place to stay! Will book here again if it is available when we are able to come back. The host was VERY responsive and answered questions within minutes of contacting them.

Very Disappointed

We booked this condo partially because it said pet free. My wife has allergies to pet dander. We drove in late and get there and the floor of the condo and all of the comforters were covered in dog hair. There was even dog hair in the refrigerator. I emailed the company with pictures. They laundered the comforters but didn’t really clean the floors. They informed me that the owners stayed before us and didn’t clean up the place. That’s unacceptable. And good luck if you’re hot. You can’t turn the A/C down under 72 or supposedly the coils will freeze up. Good luck with parking even though you pay $25 plus tax for your parking pass. I got chewed out by a security guard for parking in a compact spot because it was the only one left. She informed me that the owners overbooked and there were no spots. She told me I could park at Wal Mart a couple of miles down the road and “it would probably be alright”. So I guess I was supposed to walk 2 miles back down to the condo in the middle of the night. Extremely disappointing for such a nice condo. Would not recommend at all.

Penthouse is great....but

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very 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: It’s an awesome condo with rooftop patio. We had a great time however the following really need to be fixed.-AC in general (sign say set to only 72 deg, not cool enough, it kicks off before all space are cool) no such thing as a frozen compressor, check refrigerant or replace system). -AC in master bedroom suite...it was over 80 deg and very very humid every day and night. not good with a sunburn. Booster fan doesn’t do much. Space needs its own system with a thermostat. -All bathtubs and sinks need fixed, very slow drain. Takes ten minutes for bathtubs to drain. -In general it was built in 1984 and all fixtures are from 1984. It needs an update bad!! including the carpet and doors, no lockable doors in the master bedroom suite including the bathroom. Many doors are water damaged at the bottom.The rooftop patio is nice however, most of the furniture is old.....if I owned the condo the patio would look amazing. -The rental fee is too high for the quality of the condo. -We stay at many condos all have been updated within the last 10-15 years..38 years is way overdue.
