About this property

The humidity is gone, but the Beach is still here 🌊 Best time of the year!

"Surfside Shores offers a serene retreat, with its low-density condominium featuring 200 feet of exclusive white sandy beach, two large heated beachside pools, and two kiddie pools. This quiet, family-friendly complex ensures on-site parking and round-the-clock security.

Guests can conveniently rent beach chairs and umbrellas, partake in thrilling activities like parasailing and jet-skis, or simply unwind on ample poolside chairs and chaise lounges. The complex boasts well-maintained restrooms and vending machines. Additionally, a beautifully landscaped area featuring a BBQ zone and open grassy spaces caters to various recreational activities including Frisbee, flag football, and children's play. Perfectly situated just one mile from the AL Hwy 59 and Beach Blvd intersection, it offers easy access to major shops, restaurants, The Hangout, The Pink Pony, and other attractions.

The condo welcomes you with a beautifully decorated two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit featuring two entrances to a splendid balcony overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. The updated and fully equipped kitchen, along with tasteful décor, sets the stage. The living room provides a sleeper sofa and two plush recliners to indulge in the large flat-screen TV. The master suite offers balcony access, a brand-new king bed, a flat-screen TV, and a private entry to the bathroom. The guest suite, equally well-appointed, showcases a queen bed, flat-screen TV, and an elegantly updated private bath.

We're eager to have you return and experience all that Gulf Shores has to offer!

Poor manners by managers

To begin with did not give good instructions on floor location. Room had no extra toilet paper for a 4 night stay. Turned in keys to man at the office and he never said thank you nor did you enjoy your stay? I get calls 3 hours after I left by office telling me I had not signed the rental agreement which I was told the same thing Sunday when I checked in. She then printed a rental agreement and I signed. Then on Thursday calling me saying I had not signed one I told them the story then she said okay. I get another call 5 minutes later from another lady asking for the keys which I left at 9:30 to a man in the office. Described the guy and vehicle he walked out and got into. She was very rude. Will Never stay with Poole and Associates again. Not friendly management at all.

Great location

This property offers a great location, gulf front view, most everything you need in the kitchen. Beds were comfortable. We have stayed at this complex several times. Overall it’s in pretty decent shape. Paint peeling in places on the exterior. No complaints from us.

Not to quality

This condo was nice since we didn’t spend much time in it. Cupboards are overflowing with dirty dishes. Shower curtains were mildewed and drains didn’t drain, however, property management did come out and fix the problem right away. The floors and cupboard doors were very dirty. Overall the place was not very cleanly and many things were very cheaply done.
