Perfect Beach Vacation

This was a great condo for 3 couples! We each had our own bathroom. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of towels, up to date appliances. Parking was near elevator, pool, and beach.entrance. The best thing was the stunning beach views from our balcony.

The Views are Millionaire

You can't beat the condo's views with a full beach out of multiple windows. With views of the back bay out another room. This condo has plenty of space for everyone and 3 bathrooms helped with the little kids. Condo was beachfront a very short walk and you were on the beach. The only drawback was that the main pool was not heated, but two jacuzzis and a small kiddy pool were.

Gulf shores gem

There were a couple issues at check-in, but Scott made things right with a much appreciated late checkout! Penthouse was beautiful, views and sounds of ocean were to die for, there's a little wear and tear in bathroom tub/showers, decor was beachy and light, enough space for my fam of 10 to have dinners together. Property is located in a fantastic area, you can walk right out to the beach where you'll find gorgeous views, and crystal white sand as far you can see.

Fire Alarm Night!!!

P401 is a GREAT property and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves even though it started raining on Sunday … Sunday night as we were all ready for bed, and a few of us already in the bed, the emergency alarm sounded for us evacuate to ground floor parking area … problem resolved after about 30-45 minutes but it took longer than that for our hearts to stop racing!!!

Gulf shores 2024

The place was clean. We had a one year old with us and there were little bowels and spoons for her I liked that. It was well stocked with pots and pans and plates and spoons. Plenty of towels and linens. The only thing I would change is putting a bathroom at the pool area. The pools and hot tub were clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location and views

The three bed/three bath was perfect for our three families….and there was plenty of room to set up the babies playpen, which was a lifesaver! Only “complaint” is there was only one roll of tp for each bathroom for a full week, so we had to buy more! Very comfortable stay, just make sure to bring/buy dish soap, hand soap and extra paper products.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Peterson

Host profile image
As a native Californian, I spent my childhood growing up in Manhattan Beach, Ca. A new job opportunity brought me to Tennessee in 1987 after college. Looking for the nearest beach, a co-worker suggested Gulf Shores. In the Spring of 1988, I came to Gulf Shores for the first time and I was stunned by its natural beauty, white sandy beaches, blue-green waters, and peaceful serenity. I have vacationed in Gulf Shores every year since 1988.

Why they chose this property

It's all about the balcony and the view. I believe that Island Royale condos have best balconies, especially the corner units on the east side of the building. The east corner balconies do not get the hot afternoon sun in the summer. And, since the building is right on the sand, the sound of the waves on the beach make the balcony my favorite part of the condo. I also like the layout of the penthouse corner units in Island Royale. The floorplan offers the option for 3 private master suites, so, you have the flexibility of spending time together in the living room or balcony, but everyone can have their own space too. Island Royale is a smaller building on a less densely built stretch of beach in Gulf Shores so the beach is never crowded, even on the most popular holidays.
