Reviewer Comments: ARRIVED TO FIND ROOM LITTERED WITH DIRTY LAUNDRY AL OVER, FLOORS SO DIRTY WHEN WE WALKED ACROSS THEM ARE FEET TURNED BLACK NEEDED A GOOD SWEEPING SAND ALL OVER. FOUND SOMEONES' BEACH TOWELS IN DRYER. BENDER EMPLOYEES NEED TO GET OFF THEIR BUTTS AND PERSONALLY CHECK CONDO'S BEFORE GUESTS ARRIVE SAVES A LOT OF ISSUES

Best Condo
Loved our stay- the condo, the furniture and decor, the location, the pool, and the rental company. It was perfect! Two small negatives: the kitchen isn’t stocked with ANY baking pans at all and the sofa bed is provided with twin sheets instead of full size.. and the mattress on it cannot be used it’s in such poor condition. But overall it was worth it and a great condo!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We weren’t able to get cell service except in both bedrooms. We use Verizon and that wasn’t the problem. And the only other thing is both bathrooms needed more deep cleaning. The master has mold behind shower curtain and the baseboards in master were terribly dirty. They need to be cleaned. Thanks

Left something to be desired
Bender Realty staff was friendly and helpful. However, The Gulf Tower Condo 3b left something to be desired for the following reasons 1-the beach was eroded to half the size of the year before and the rental advertisement did not tell us there was limited beach 2-the white sofa was stained badly with something red. Bender agreed to send a cleaner but we put a quilt over it so we wouldn’t have the disruption 3-one of the two elevators was out of service and the other had a work in progress appearance. 4-the hallway ceiling panels had been removed exposing wiring and other mechanics which gave an appearance that the building was in disrepair 5-the dishwasher easily slid out of its place because it was not installed properly So while my family had fun, we paid more than the accommodations were worth Would I stay at Gulf Tower again? Most likely not.

No Salt?
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have not had to rent at Gulf Shores in a long time because we own a condo. I was so shocked that the unit did not have salt and pepper. there was also no soap provided for all sinks to wash your hands. I went to Bender to request ONE soap. The front desk lady was rude and very haughty acting. I never got the soap I requested.also, the floors were very sandy when I arrived.

Condo did not meet expectations, but enjoyed the location and family.
Great location, excellent beach access. Condo outdated and dirty. Parking extremely limited and difficult with large SUV. Single fob was inconvenient. Cookie sheet for pizza would’ve been helpful.

Disappointed
The condo needed a serious cleaning there was hair everywhere. There was only one roll of toilet paper and the garbage bags were small and cheap tearing easily. We didn’t like only being able to have 1 vehicle per condo especially when the parking lot wasn’t even half full. We won’t be returning again.

Fabulous Stay!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay during spring break. The condo was clean and well supplied with everything we needed if we wanted to cook meals, or if we had little ones, there were many sand toys and some games to play. I would definitely staying in this condo again, or recommend staying to others. Also, the management team at Benders were extremely kind and friendly, as well as went above and beyond when we had car trouble and needed to find a mechanic.

The sofa bed was stained and dirty and super uncomfortable. Kitchen needed some attention also, no dish towels.The lighting in the condo was very dim... it was hard to see at night. Just needs some upgrades!
