Beautiful Condo - Great location

I came down with my wife and 2 adult kids. The condo was exactly as described and very clean - could not have been happier. During the rental process the owner was very responsive and responded to any messages quickly. All instructions were simple and very clear. The picture on VRBO from the balcony does not do the view justice. It is a corner unit, but you have a full, open view of the ocean, which we were very happy with.We would not hesitate to stay there again should we return, whic. his the highestr comppoiment I can give,

Simple & conveniant

I appreciate places that allow dogs. The unit was clean, but on the small side. It was fine for my husband and I and our 2 dogs, but would’ve been very small if there were 2 additional adults. The condo complex, is simple, no frills. Pictures are accurate.

Beautiful views and master bath.

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was great for us with the 2 king size beds. I loved the mater bathroom with separate sinks and vanities for me and my husband and our things and the nice walk in shower. It was well equipped with all we needed. A few more wash cloths would be nice. And we loved that we could bring our dog Casper. Only complaint I have is that we did see a few roaches and a few small bugs of some sort. Mostly around the dog food bowls that were sitting in the floor. If not for this, I would have given an excellent rating.

Always a great stay

We have stayed in several of this owner's units in this complex. Each unit is always clean and has what we need to enjoy our stay. We like the complex is dog friendly, but still clean. We look for availability with this owner in this complex each time we visit Gulf Shores. Highly recommend!

Great location and view

The Caribbean condo 704 located in Gulf Shores was clean and well kept. The side unit had a great view from every window of the lagoon or the ocean. Since it was on the beach it was very convenient. We would stay here again.

Great!

The condo is great; however, there are a couple of things to note. The beds have fairly hard mattresses and the comforters are extremely thin. Although they are quilt-like, they are not “warm.” There were a couple of bugs throughout the condo, but that is to be expected with just being on the gulf. There was no infestation or anything like that. The parking is TIGHT, but our GMC Yukon fit okay with meticulous and careful parking. We would absolutely go back, but I might would encourage the managers or owners of the condo to invest in better mattresses. The light in the living room needs repairing as we could not get it to work.

Summer Beach Trip

Great stay at Caribbean 704. Great view of ocean, right on the beach and convenient location for all restaurants and attractions. Pool was also a nice feature, clean and never crowded. Being able to take both our dogs though was the deciding factor in choosing this property. It was nice to see all the other guests at Caribbean brought their dogs. And the parking.. very nice feature for 704. Made coming and going a breeze.

Short stay, great experience!!

We had a last minute trip pop up due to moving our son to Nashville. We didn’t require a full week stay and it was prime rental season, but Lance was great to work with and we were able to make the short week work. The condo was clean, updated, great location and just as advertised.

About the host

Hosted by Lance & Courtney Steffek

Host profile image
We live in Gulf Shores and love the area. We have 4 children; Emma, Lachlan, Lennox and Piper that love the beach and pools. We are not far away and enjoy staying at Caribbean when other families are not enjoying it. It has been such a joy owning this unit and being able to share it with other families throughout the year. And it has been a fun journey renovating; making it a truly luxurious, high-end destination.

Why they chose this property

We like the low density of only 32 units but all the amenities of a larger complex. Also the 9' ceilings which give it a larger feel than many of the other condos in the area.

What makes this property unique

Low density building with a salt water heated indoor pool, heated outdoor pool, fitness center, grill area and unobstructed Gulf views.
