About this property

Tidewater 2nd Floor-Awesome Gulf Front 3BR - Indoor & Outdoor Pools


Tidewater 201 is a three bedroom, three bath east corner unit condo located in the heart of Orange Beach. We have amazing Panoramic Views of the gulf.

We just updated our condo in the spring of 2021 to welcome the most distinguishing guests.

Our unit is located on the east end of the building with a panoramic view of the gulf shore. The living room and master bedroom open onto the post free, Gulf front balcony. The queen bedroom has a private balcony on the bay side of the building with views of the Gulf shore.

The third bedroom contains a pair of twin beds to accommodate two more members of your family or group. And the sleeper sofa in the living room will allow as many as eight people to enjoy their vacation at Tidewater. Each of the three bedrooms has private access to a bathroom. In addition, each bedroom has a television

When you arrive at Tidewater, enjoy the covered entry leading to the lobby where you will find two elevators. Luggage carts are located in the storage closet off the lobby to help you settle into your vacation home. During your visit to the Gulf, you can use the stairway for quick access to your second floor condo.

After passing through the lobby, you will encounter the outdoor pool and the boardwalk leading to the beach beyond. The indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and exercise room are adjacent to the outdoor pool.

Local Activities
The Tidewater building provides easy access to all that the gulf coast has to offer. You will be located directly across the street from Zeke's Landing (and Marina) and near numerous other restaurants and shops.

Gulf Shores State Park is only a few miles away. Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge is also easily accessible. Several amusement and water parks are nearby for your whole family’s enjoyment. There are a dozen golf courses in the general area that provide a variety of settings and challenges.

If you must check in with your office, at least you can take advantage of our free wi-fi Internet connection (not to mention great views out the window or from the balcony).

We would love to have you as our guests during your vacation to the Gulf Coast. Please contact us to plan your fun.

Renters Beware
Heed to previous reviews! The condo is in need of a major remodel and repairs! Loose and cracked ceramic tiles throughout the condo. You can literally hear them click when you walk on the loose ones! The balcony has a good 6 inch drop on one end and over 90% of the tiles on the balcony are cracked and broke. We spent over 2 hours the 2nd day cleaning the fridge and the condo. The fridge was DISGUSTING and the center bracket between the 2 crisper drawers is missing so the drawers don't slide. I moved items on the countertop to wipe under them, that hadn't been done in a long time! I know this isn't a new condo. We've stayed in older condos before but they were clean and well-maintained, this one is not at all! Location was great, that is all! balcony are cracked and ruined

Everything was good except we were a little leary of the balcony due to it leaning. The leaning was very noticeable and a little uncomfortable. Otherwise, great place.

Make sure and read the reviews.
The description states it is “just updated”. If you call replacing a few floor tiles that don’t match then I guess so. The floors were so dirty our feet were black! The bathrooms were gross and not deeply cleaned between guest. The balcony facing the Gulf did not feel safe. It was sagging quite a bit on the left side and all the tiles were cracked. We didn’t allow anyone to go out there which is a bummer! I contacted the owner and he said they had it checked out and said it was fine. I would disagree. The location was great but I won’t be staying here again.

Orange Beach Vacay
Arrived and the condo appeared to be just fine. We spent time on the beach then back for showers and bed. The next day we discovered how truly nasty the condo floor was. My white socks were black. I spent a good part of the day cleaning and scrubbing the floors. And, the balcony facing the beach was leaning to one side so much you had to be careful not to fall. Do yourself a favor and choose a different condo.

We had a great time. The condo was clean and as pictured. Our daughter enjoyed the small balcony to read in the evenings. The place was quiet and in a great location. Will definitely look at booking here again in the future!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
Up on arrival we found 8 roaches in the condo ! The balcony was cracked and the railing had been patched up but still looked and felt very unsafe we couldn’t even let our kids out there because the balcony was uneven and slanted down. We immediately left and headed to the Hilton because we couldn’t stand the idea of sleeping where there were so many roaches. We are currently waiting for a full refund after VRBO completes the investigation. The owner offered only a small refund and was very unshaken by the roaches and conditions of the balcony. This place is unsafe and I would definitely recommend booking something else.

Amazing as usual
This is our second year staying at this condo and we LOVE IT!!! Lots of room for everyone and the kiddos loved the sand toys and boogie boards that other renters have left from previous stays. Very family friendly and security is also great!! The only thing that needs to addressed is the balcony furniture. Some pieces were broken and others we weathered.

Devil in the details
The saying goes— road hard and put away wet and that is what this condo felt like— the linens were threadbare and only having 2 towels per bathroom was not acceptable— there were 7 of us with 4 females that needed a towel for hair and body. The outdoor furniture was broken and rickety. The bed linens were of very low quality. No utensils for grilling out doors. Toilet paper holder in master bath was missing. Usually paper towels etc at least 1 roll is provided to get you started but did not provided any. Many broken ceramic floor tiles. The instructions of how to unlock condo and getting parking pass were vague. This unit must be rented every week- leaving no time for maintenance. Beach was beautiful and good location

Family Vacation
Overall, the condo was adequate for a family vacation. There were multiple tiles in the condo that were broken which made walking barefoot a little dangerous. On the first night when pulling out the sofa bed, we found a live cockroach who was hiding out in the bed. We informed the property manager who said he would call the COA to see about having pest control come through the condo, but we never saw them. The back deck slopes which was a little unnerving, especially with the not so stable Woden patio furniture. We noticed that it was taking several times of resetting the dryer to get the clothes dried, and when we finally spent the time to watch, saw that it was not tumbling. Informed the property manager who stated he was unable to get an appliance person out until the day we were leaving which resulted in us having to spend several afternoons at the laundromat which is no way you want to spend your vacation. Finally on the day before we left the front door lock quit working which resulted in us having to leave the condo unlocked when we left which didn’t feel extremely safe. Again called the property manager who stated he would have the cleaners look at it after we had left. If you are going strictly going to be at the beach then the location is awesome and the beach is great. We were fortunate enough to get to see the Blue Angels who were practicing right out from the condo.

The tiles in the condo feel like they are all coming loose or hollow. In areas of the condo it feels like the building is leaning. The sofa is very uncomfortable bc you lean to the middle. Time for a new one. We put a sheet over it to help protect the material. Our beds were very comfortable. We were unpleased to the extreme that while laying out on the beach, people were fishing for sharks about 50 yards from us.

The location was excellent. The condo was a great size and well decorated. The furniture was comfortable and the beds were great. There were even leftover beach supplies in the laundry room. We were able to use the beach toys and chairs on the beach. The 2 pools were very nice. The condo could have been a little cleaner but overall I would stay again. I called the owner with one concern and he was very attentive.

Honestly, you get what you pay for.
Our trip was great but the room had some complications. The balcony LEANS. (Almost the whole building does on that side. You can physically see it from the beach up to the 6th floor.) My husband got locked in the master bathroom on the first night and we had to take the door off the hinges to get him out due to a free spinning door knob. We were told it would be fixed within a day or two but we never seen a repair man and the door stayed off the hinges until we left. Some of the tiles were loose and moved when we walked. (You could tell some had been replaced because they didnt match) It was a very tight fit in the living area to be a 3 bedroom 3 bathroom. It wasnt the best but it wasnt the worst. The manager was great in helping us with our door problem though.

Justin and Susan met at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania. We moved to Atlanta in 2002 and found Gulf Shores / Fort Morgan to be a wonderful vacation spot on the Gulf of Mexico.

Why they chose this property

We found a great place for our children and their friends to enjoy the beach. We have a great time in all seasons of the year.

What makes this property unique

We love walking on the beach and sitting by the pool. The kids enjoy digging in the sand and playing in the surf.
