I walk with a cane and having to carry around the fob was a real hassle. I heard other people saying it was a hassle for them also. I've never stayed in a place in Gulf Shores that had that. I guess I understand as I did see a homeless woman on the second floor outside lobby area.

Get away

Get away with husband. Condo was great. Especially enjoyed the rental beach chairs and Ike’s Rental employees were especially helpful. Only drawback was parking Arrived at 4:30 and got a notice a parking violation/tow notice at 4:45 because we didn’t have the parking sticker—we were in the condo getting it!! Thursday got 2 notice said tag had expired ( it clearly indicated we were leaving on Friday). One notice at 2:36. another later with same message. Called security company no one answered. Other than this annoyance we had a great time and would definitely stay again.

Great stay

My husband and I were in town to watch our daughter’s softball team compete in a spring break tournament. The location was very convenient to restaurants and shopping. The condo was clean and spacious. The best part was the view from the balcony!

Best Getaway!

Lovely, well-kept condo and nicely-appointed with everything we needed. Beautiful views of the ocean, the sandy beach, and crashing waves were mesmerizing and soothing, and all right from the porch! My daughter and I explored, relaxed, walked the beach, and searched for shells. Checking in was a breeze. We were given information on everything imaginable To make our stay enjoyable and trouble-free. Thank you!

Perfect Spot

Great location and great condo right on the water and beach - got to see so much wildlife. Pool, hot tub, and game room very nice!!! We’ll be back. Forewarning - don’t rent from Ike’s Beach Rentals for multiple days and definitely don’t build in a daily tip - first day great service and placement and then steadily worse with horrible customer service.

Lovely condo for long weekend

VERY easy check in/access process-probably the easiest we’ve had in all of our GS trips over the years. Great amenities, condos are reasonably soundproof, no late music or parties. Moreover than other places we have stayed the condos (building as well as living space) were very well kept. Great communication leading up to the trip by the property managers. A small but very important thing-there appeared to be adequate parking for all of the units so you never had to circle and fight for a spot. We hope to book again in the future!

As advertised

The unit was very nice, exactly as pictures. Has fully furnished modern kitchen, two large bedrooms with plenty of storage area. The furniture was comfortable and the TV was good with Direct TV. Both the living room and bedroom opened on to the balcony. The unit is right on the beach and has a nice view. The pool, which we didnt use was not very large and the indoor section was closed during our stay.
