Spacious but dated

The unit is well laid out and in a perfect location. The entire unit is dated and could seriously benefit from a couple of upgrades, specifically the appliances, plumbing fixtures and mattresses. I don’t need cool or trendy furniture, after all I’m not planning to live there, but the plumbing fixtures are so old that it’s difficult to adjust hot/cold, the stove and fridge are on their last breath (though the dishwasher and washer/dryer were great!) and the mattresses are painfully uncomfortable. Those things didn’t hinder a great vacation and we would come back to this unit again for this price.

Overall it was great. We did have to call housekeeping to clean grease from the bathtub. Shower kept leaking. Place is outdated, but served the purpose of our stay. Close to food, shopping, and ice cream!!

Needs to be updated

Great location but needs to be updated everything was out dated & the condo could’ve been cleaned a little better They also didn’t mention they maybe be renovating I guess(I hope) because there were wires hanging from the ceiling on the walkway to our condo which were very unsafe & blankets were up in the elevators which made it extremely hot look like they had been up for a while. Also my sister had to pay $25 to park down the street at the main office because they only allow 1 car per guest I just thought $25 was a little much.

A relaxing getaway

My recent 5-night, 6-day stay at The Gulf Tower in Gulf Shores was an enjoyable, leaving us with fond memories of a relaxing beach getaway. From the moment we checked in, the process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. A special mention goes to Mac, the adorable and super-friendly white lab, who made the office visits even more delightful. The condo itself had its ups and downs, but overall, it provided a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. Upon entering the condo, I noticed that it was a bit smaller than what the pictures had portrayed, but it was still decent and had a welcoming feel to it. The first bedroom, featuring a trundle bed with a full bed on top and a twin bed below, was a practical space-saving solution. I appreciated the design of the bed, allowing for extra space when not in use. The only downside was the limited lighting, with some of the lamps not functioning correctly, and light pouring in from the outside hallway, but it didn't hinder our stay significantly. However, it's worth mentioning that our stay coincided with some construction activity, which led to some inconvenience. The limited operational elevator caused occasional waiting times, especially during peak hours. One point of contention was the strictness regarding parking warnings. While we displayed our parking tag, we received a warning due to a minor visibility issue. I’d recommend you stay at Gulf Tower for a beach getaway. Thank you!

Great location, but really outdated.

The management team goes above and beyond. But I’m he condo itself needs updated. Bathrooms and kitchens remind me of the 80’s.

Great Location at a Cute Condo

Our family (2 adults & 2 teens) stayed in this property during our recent trip to Gulf Shores. The location was great -perfect view, right on the beach and overlooking the pool. We were close to restaurants and shops, which made it easy to get where we wanted to go. The property itself is cute and has all you need (full kitchen, washer/dryer, plenty of room for 4 people). The beds were not the most comfortable, but overall, it was a great place to stay for a few days. The rental company was very helpful and great to work with. We would rent from them again.

In general the furniture, although it looked OK, was very uncomfortable, like sinking into a deep hole.
