Great stay
The condo was great, it was exactly as described, very clean, kitchen was fully stocked, plenty of linens, towels. The view was amazing, and it was close to many things to walk to and drive if you choose to do so. I would however recommend to the owner that a fresh coat of paint throughout the condo would do it wonders, along with a new ceiling fan in the master bedroom, we could not turn it on for it made a horrible sound at night, the mattress could also stand to be replaced in the master, it slanted slightly to both sides. The only negative to our stay was the elevators were so horribly slow, we were on the 13th floor and at times chose to walk up all 13 flights rather than to wait. There also is a huge discrepancy in your check in information on where to place the tag for your vehicle while parked in the garage, the check in info stated to put this on the drivers side dash (visible) we did this, only to come out and see that we had a warning on our windshield stating that our vehicle would be subject to towing or having a boot put on it for failing to properly display our parking permit. On the permit it states to put it on your mirror. The female security officer that we spoke with was beyond unhelpful and horribly rude while trying to explain that we had conflicting instructions on where to place it.

Best condo ever
Everything about this condo was wonderful! It was very clean, beautifully decorated, and in the perfect location. Some of our family had rented a different condo, but kept commenting on how much nicer our condo was compared to theirs. Blake was awesome and so helpful.

Best stocked & Great Location
My family, friends, and I loved staying at 1302 Island Tower. The condo is spacious, clean, and well stocked with any and everything you can think of! The condo has all up to date appliances and furniture. I'm impressed with the closet spaces especially in the master bedroom. I love how close of a walk it is to the beach from the condo. It's such a short walk in comparison to other places I've stayed. I love the views from the balcony and privacy provided. It's also located in a convenient spot within walking distance to several restaurants. Bahama Bobs is right next door & Surfside Pizza is across the street! Blake is a wonderful host with great communication. We locked our keys in the room and he was quick to the rescue! He stayed in contact with us to make sure everything was good and was quick to respond. Definitely recommended and look forward to business with Blake in the future.

This condo was amazing! My wife and I and our 3 kids really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views of the beach from the living area and bedrooms. The condo was beautifully furnished and had all the amenities. The check in and out process was smooth and easy. Do yourself a favor and stay here. You will feel at home. We look forward to our next trip.

The Best Condo in Island Towers
This was our 3rd trip to GS and by far, the most friendly condo owner to deal with. Blake is so easy to deal with and quick to answer any questions. The condo itself was lovely and super clean. We had 8 people which is the max capacity and still had room. Great location and views! We enjoyed the beach every day of our trip and the balcony at night after we would have dinner! I can't recommend staying here enough! We will definitely be back!! A++++

Great property, as advertised, and great customer service!
Best stocked condo period!! Great location with plenty of space for 4 adults 1 teen and 3 smaller kids. The 2 master sweets are awesome and the balcony is huge. Location is great, easily accessible to everything in town. The condo was so well stocked that we basically only need clothes and groceries. I can’t think of anything else that it didn’t have. Makes it easy to travel not needing any beach items or basic necessities around the house. Blake was great any questions I had were answered with in minutes. And that alone will bring us back to this place our next trip to gulf shores. The property has everything you need to be comfortable with 2 pools one inside which is key on long rainy days, a gym, plenty of parking space, and security on staff that we saw every time we left the condo making their rounds. Only think to note for travelers not familiar with gulf shores, during peak times of vacation getting into or out of town on the weekend is a process so be prepared for heavy traffic with in 35 miles. That’s just part of it, I will travel during a weekday or at night next time! Again this is a great place and we will be back! Thanks for sharing it with us Blake!!

Great condo-needs a few tweaks
The condo was wonderful! Had plenty of cooking utensils and dinnerware. I have 3 complaints and one is not the fault of the owner. 1- the bed in master 2 was hard as a rock to the point it hurt to sleep on your side. 2- one of the two elevators were down every day (nothing owner can do about this) just a huge inconvenience and we left at 7am and took almost 45 mins to catch an elevator that we could load up on. 3- the internet in condo is almost non-existent and the modem was even changed out while we were there and made no difference. Overall it was a beautiful property and the owner is very easy to communicate with.

Nice clean condo with huge balcony overlooking the gulf, well stocked kitchen, loved the huge master bathroom in the master bedroom. Beds slept great. Owners were very responsive to any questions. Only thing that was a nuisance was the complex only had one working elevator but that’s not the owners fault as they were repairing damage from hurricane Sally. Will defintly stay there again
