Review

Location was great and access to the beach was awesome. Price was reasonable and check-in/out was super easy (condo was even ready early for us which was great). Condo wasn’t not clean, but there were definitely some easy things that would have improved our impression (shower drain hardly drained - we were hard pressed to take any sort of shower without water accumulating in the bottom therefore sand, dirt, etc. also built up; mildew/moldy looking substance in rim of water/ice dispenser on fridge; mildew/moldy looking substance on rim of washer). Overall we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the amenities that were offered but having those things clean/working would have improved our stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is fine.Easy to estimate the distance of walks.Suggestions for the unit itself:need room darkening curtain for bedroom as the light outside is very bright at night;curtains with grommet top in living area to pull back easier; smaller saucepans in kitchen (1, 1 1/2 qt) with matching lids needed; remove pot lids with rusted screws that will drip into food; add another golf course with a complimentary round

Fireworks on the Beach

This is our 2nd year to stay in this area during the 4th. The fireworks from the pier are spectacular. We have now visited Gulf Shores five times. The location of the condo is our favorite. We have stayed at the Westwind three of the five times we have visited. We will stay again. One suggestion I would have is to provide an umbrella or a couple of beach chairs for those that are traveling from locations that do not have the use for them. We did use Ike's chair service but did not get a choice spot and would have loved to save the money for possibly extending our visit. However, we will return to this location.

Rest and Relaxation

The property looked as described. I loved the view of the beach and the water. The bathroom needed some TLC… hair from previous stay was clogged up in the tub. The tub also needed to be cleaned… and the quality of the paper products weren’t good.

Fantastic location

This is our 3rd year staying in Westwind. It’s small enough building to not be crowded and the location is the best!!! Right on the beach, far enough from the Hangout to be quiet but close enough to be convenient. The condo is just as nice as the pictures look. Only 2 minor inconveniences that if changed would make this a 100% perfect place. The security light by the elevator shines right into the bedroom. Perhaps the owner can add some room darkening shades. Until then, bring an eye mask if light bothers you while sleeping because it’s brighter in the bedroom at 1:00 am than 10:00 am. And second, the bathroom lighting isn’t the best and it’s hard to see inside the shower to shave.

Terrible experience!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: booked a stay in a condo and it was terrible! The bed hadbodily fluid stains that were crusty! The place was a wreckas well. They put me in a different condo but that didn'tmatter because the stay and play program is pathetic. Youcan't get anything available so what's the point of havingone? They offered me a full refund and didn't give one. Ihad told them I wanted to leave and that's what wasoffered. I've been renting from them for 20 years. It's ashame to pay that much money for **** poor product andservice. I drove 9 hours to specifically go deep sea fishing.I had to wait over an hour to get service for a new condoso therefore all restaurants were closing and we couldn'tgo out to eat. The guy that gave me the keys to my newcondo didn't give me a parking pass so my car was gettingtowed as I was trying to leave. I would never recommendthis company to anyone wanting to stay in Gulf Shores! Goto Myrtle Beach! My vacation has been ruined because ofthese people! Stay away if you plan on having a good vacation!

Vacation Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had great service from Gulf Shores Rental, but the condo we stayed in was awful. We were in unit 502 of Westwind. The location of the building was great, the unit was clean, but there was not one piece of comfortable furniture in the unit. The bed was the worst one I have ever slept in. The TV in the den made weird noises when we tried to watch a DVD. The couch was like a bucket. When you sat on it it was like being in a hole. I would stay at Westwind again, but definitely not in unit 502!

Westwind Condo

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Westwind needs maintenance. The exterior is peeling paint on all four sides and unpainted boarded area on the front of the building hiding a dumpster. Due to a storm two weeks earlier the pool was full of sand and unusable fir our entire visit. The pool deck was littered with dirty sand. The shower from the beach did not work. The pool is extremely small for a building this large. Only one cart to unload all the cars and it was missing for the next two days so we had to unload our groceries and chairs in shifts by hand. Unit 502 is newly decorated and painted. Furniture attractive but not comfortable. New appliances in the kitchen. Bathroom toilet needs work. Bed room attractive but has no furniture with drawers for clothing. Very small condo. Sleeps 6 although I don’t see how you could fit 6 people. Living area rug in poor condition and sandy. Condo was clean.
