Wow! What can I say. This condo was well above an beyond what we expected. My fiancee and I came down to Orange Beach for a week without the kiddos. We've been to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach before and have stayed in the Phoenix properties. This is, by far, the best place we have stayed. From the start, walking into the condominium complex, you will notice that it is very beautiful inside. The entryway is quiet and staff are friendly. The grounds are well-kept and the pool area is beautiful and only about a hundred yards from the beautiful white sandy beach.
However, the most amazing thing about this was the unit, itself. Upon walking in, we felt like we were living in the lap of luxury. This 3 bedroom condo seems bigger than the house we live in at home. The spacious master bedroom with a walk-in closet and private full bath is perfect for a couple like us (read: she has her own closet and bathroom). There is even a small balcony overlooking the inland scenery of Orange Beach.
As you move down the hall toward the back of the condo, you will see two nice sized bedrooms on the left with a spacious bathroom shared between them (plenty of room - I know, because that was my bathroom on the stay). The rooms, all throughout are nicely decorated and the beds are quite comfortable! Outside of the third bedroom is a closet with a washer and dryer, so you can be prepared for your next day on the beach.
At the end of the hall, you will have a small restroom on your left. Once you reach this point, you will be amazed at the size of the living room, dining room, and kitchen in this wide open area in front of you. I tell you, the couch was where I spent my day once (yes, too much sun makes the air-conditioning and couch feel fantastic)! Anyway, plenty of space for your morning and evening meals to be prepared and consumed.
Beyond there, is a HUGE wrap-around balcony which overlooks the Gulf of Mexico. Since this is a corner-unit, you can choose to look out the side and see the bridge to Florida or straight out back to watch the tide come in and see the great view that the Orange Beach/Gulf Shores area beaches provide!
Treat yourself and check it out! I know we would go back right now, if we could!
