This was our first time staying at the Gulf shores and let me tell you it did not disappoint.. It was a super cute condo just the right size for us and an awesome beach view!! The sunrises from the balcony were breathtaking and all shops and restaurants were all within a close reach. Room was clean and neat with access to beach. We will definitely be back..

Well maintained and very convenient with teenagers being close to The Hangout. Also very secure if you come with small children. You have to have a key to get to the pool and to access the beach.

Great view!
Location was awesome and view was beautiful! Kitchen cabinets need to be scrubbed down and we were short on pillow cases. I had to buy some and left them there. But we would stay there again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: IT WAS PRETTY GOOD. THERE WERE JUST SOME MINOR ISSUES.1. There are two elevators and one did not work half of the time. This caused some long waits and cramped elevators.2. My son slept on the sleeper sofa. Upon removing the cushions we found the sleeper part was covered in crumbs. Had obviously not been checked/cleaned by house keeping in quite a while. Also, there were no sheets/pillow cases to be found in any of the closets. He had to sleep on the bare mattress and pillows. On checkout day we found a platic bag on linens outside on the porch.

Great Location - Nicely Decorated
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Bender Reality Reps were polite and helpful — I look forward to renting from Bender again in the future. The condo was in a great location, but there were some cleanliness issues. When we checked in, some of the bath towels and pillow cases had visible stains. Parking is also VERY tight. Overall, we had a nice vacation.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall satisfied with our stay. It was in a great location. The unit had lovely decor but could have been cleaner. The refrigerator/ freezer smelled strongly of fish, keeping us from storing our food in it. The king mattress was broken down on one side making it slightly uncomfortable. The staff was very welcoming and helpful.

The rain or shine balcony condo
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enclosed balcony great. Hall toilet has problems. (we avoided it) Owner should invest in small repairs & updating. My priorities of clean linens (enough of them), convenient kitchen, and no bugs get 5 stars. The common areas well kept. Pool pristine. Dirty old grills outside. We hoped this would be a place to stay for a month or more this winter, but no. Shopworn is a good word to describe the condo. No internet wasn't a problem for a few days, but the inconvenience of using common room would be longer term. I felt safe & can say for sure the smoke alarm works (from cooking) & there are sprinklers. If you let Ginny at Bender know what you are looking for, she will find it. Will always call them.
