Overview

This property is situated in the beautiful Gulf Coast area known for its miles of powder-soft, sugar-white sand, sparkling emerald-green waters, and a treasure trove of amusements. Fishing is a fantastic activity when vacationing here. Learn everything you need to know about charter boat fishing, inshore fishing on the back bays, renting and/or docking your own boat, visiting artificial reefs either by boat or diving excursion, and the types of fish you're likely to hook. Take your catch to one of our outstanding seafood restaurants where they'll prepare it for you. Or, make use of your property's fully-equipped kitchen to serve up the bounty. Golfers love the area, thanks to the nine signature golf courses within a short drive of the beach. History comes alive here. From Fort Morgan to Perdido Key to nearby Mobile or Pensacola, and all points in between, there are many opportunities to explore the unique international culture and history of the area. This is a shopper's paradise, with dozens of unique beach boutiques and major shopping complexes. Two popular shopping destinations are the shops at Tanger Outlets, situated just north of the beach, as well as The Wharf in Orange Beach, where you'll find shops, restaurants, a movie theater, and more. For those who want to slow things down a bit, there are numerous day spas in the area that are ready to help you relieve stress with massages, facials, and salon services sure to make your vacation feel extra lavish. If digging into nature is on the agenda, visit the backcountry trails, go kayaking or canoeing, and explore the Gulf State Park or Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. There are miles and miles of paved and natural paths that invite you to immerse yourself in the area's various ecosystems. When it comes to entertaining the little ones (and the big kids, too!), visit The Park at OWA, with its heart-racing amusement park rides and midway-style games; spend the day at Waterville USA and zoom down giant waterslides, laze around the lazy river, and let the littles splash around in WAWA World; enjoy a round of miniature golf; jump and play at a trampoline park, or visit one of several fun arcades in the area. With so many options for fun along the Gulf Coast, your family's vacation can be as high-energy or as slow-paced as you desire. After your adventures outside your vacation home come to a close, come back to a space brimming with natural light and stunning views. Lounge comfortably in the living room area and watch your favorite shows on the TV there. On cooler days, sit in one of the chairs in front of the fireplace or walk out to the balcony and gaze at the picturesque watery backdrop. Make yourself or the group a snack and indulge at the dining table as you reflect on the fun you had earlier. Feel free to use the bar and provided glasses for a refreshing drink as well. As the day comes to a close, take your pick from one of the three bedrooms. The primary in particular is eye-catching, as it has its own private balcony (complete with a view of the gulf), a TV, and its own bathroom. Enjoy the sunset on the balcony furniture before retiring to bed for the evening. SHARED AMENITIES -Pool -Fitness room -Charcoal grill THINGS TO KNOW

Set right on the beach in a quieter, smaller complex, this spacious, well-appointed condo offers fantastic ocean views, easy beach access, roomy living areas and balconies, a stocked kitchen, washer/dryer and a pool — ideal for families. Clean, comfortable beds and attentive staff make stays easy, while the building’s intimate size means less crowding.

We were clearly surprised at the size of this unit! Great for a larger single family! Nice all around! An easy walk to and from the unit to the beach, which is great for those with mobility issues or small children! We are ready to go back and will definitely be booking this unit again!

Loved our condo It was very spacious for our family of 5. Right on the beach plus a pool! I loved having 2 balconies also. The kitchen was stocked with most of our cooking needs as well as a washer and dryer. The elevator could use a lil tlc and a few things needed cosmetic upgrades. The big room with balcony stayed pretty warm even with the blinds closed but thankfully they had a fan in one of the closets that saved the day :). We would definitely stay again!
