The condo was great. We like being able to go straight to the beach, which is right where we were. Close to all the restaurants and shops, just walking distance from anything.

Gulf Shores Vacation
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: Enjoyed it just like the previous stays we've had at Clearwater. Just a couple of minor things. The toaster would not work unless you held the lever down when making toast. Not a big deal but maybe needs looking at. The ice maker does not work but maybe this is by design in case someone would leave without turning it off. Again not a big deal we just used the cube trays. Also there was no vacuum. We like to vacuum before we leave. My husband was taught that when you borrow or use something that belongs to someone else you always leave or return it in the same or better condition than it was when you received it. Again no big deal. We'll definitely be back. You can bet on it. We love the place!!!!!

Love GS
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: I’ve been coming to GS for over 10 years. I found this unit to have the best stocked kitchen of any place I stayed. The location is right on the beach, beds were very comfortable, furnishings were very nice. The balcony is small but sufficient. The only thing I would say needs attention is the dishwasher as it isn’t bolted in place and falls forward on you when you open the door. The stove is usable but outdated.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice place located right on the beach and close to many things. We had a group of five stay and there was plenty of room. Everything was clean and comfortable. The only issue was the sign on the street needed to be bigger or lighted to see the entrance better but we found it. We had a great time!

Beautiful view!
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: First, so happy they painted and upgraded this unit. We have stayed at this condo complex 3 times and this unit was the last unit available. We were reluctant because of the decor, but was assured it was improving and it did. The unit was unfortunately not cleaned very well, but I am not one to complain. They have everything you need in a kitchen for your stay. I will say we needed the sofa sleeper and this was not a sofa sleeper. So they need to update the amenities. Over all we were happy as usual with our stay, except we had a stormy week. Location amazing. Bender Reality is amazing!! I just wish the world would get back to normal, it was very hard to eat out and wait times were horrible! We love this place and Gulf Shores!!

Great View
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The great stuff first. The view was amazing. The beach was great, the pool was clean and nice. The room was just like it was pictured. Kind of over the top. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. All of the outside furniture was cheap plastic and most of the inside furniture was wicker. If you are a fluffy person this may not be your first choice. The condo feels like some one bought it and decorated it to look like a beach condo but had no intentions of ever being there. I would love to stay in the building again. I would not stay in this condo again.

Gulf Shores Clearwater
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time to vacation in Gulf Shores. We had a wonderful time and ready to get back to the gulf coast. Clearwater 5D was somewhat dated in the furnishings but overall was a great place to stay. The major issues we had were 1) the advertised Wi-Fi only worked if you were standing at the front door. We had to use our air cards most of the time to get good internet service. 2) the air conditioning was very unbalanced. We had to keep the thermostat on 70 just to keep it cool enough in the master bedroom to sleep and 3) there was no grill available at the complex to cook on. All in all, once again, a good value for what you get.

Get a new cleaning service
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was in a good location, nice view, the cleanliness could have been a lot better. The return vent in living room was very bad. I cleaned it. The vent above the bar was blowing dust all over the ceiling that was very noticeable . The toilets could not have possibly been cleaned under the rim in maybe 6 months or better, solid black. The repair man did come within a few hours to unclog our bathtubs. That was a relief . The shelf in the refrigerator came loose a couple of times but I fixed that too. I really recommend a new cleaning service. I feel I cleaned enough to have a refund on our cleaning fees.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: HAD A GREAT TIME AND DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE...UNFORTUNATELY, THE ELEVATOR WAS STUCK BETWEEN FLOOR WHEN WE ARRIVED, AND CARRYING LUGGAGE AND GROCERIES UP 5 FLOORS WAS AN AWE FULL WAY TO START, HOWEVER, WITHIN A FEW HOURS THE ELEVATOR WAS FIXED. THE ONLY OTHER THING, WAS THE SHOWER COMING UP FROM THE HOSE, AND THE WATER PRESSURE WAS VERY WEAK, ALSO, THE DECK DIDN'T ALLOW THE SAND AND WATER TO DROP THRU; SO IT WAS HARD TO REALLY RINSE THE SAND OFF. OTHER THEN THAT, THE CONDO WAS VERY CLEAN, GREAT VIEW OF THE OCEAN, COMFORTABLE BEDS AND WELL LAID OUT KITCHEN. REALLY WAS SAD WHEN WE HAD TO LEAVE...THE WEEK JUST FLEW BY!

Great condo in fantastic location
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 loved our stay in this condo. With a family of 6 (2 adults, 2 teens and 2 6 year olds) it was a perfect size. The location was nice and the beach was not crowded at all. The kitchen was well stocked and there was a perfect view. Only compliant would be the back king size bedroom was warmer than the rest of the condo. If you plan to sleep there, be sure to take a fan. Otherwise, PERFECT vacation location!
