Location was nice but that’s about all this unit has going for it. Cleanliness was horrible (don't use the ice or water from refrigerator, there’s mold in there), furnishings are very worn and stained, and they failed to mention in the pre arrival email to bring basically everything you need to cook with (there wasn’t even a spatula but three keurigs!) Disappointed!

Parking is horrible at this building. The dryer had to run through multiple cycles to dry clothes. The AC struggled to maintain 72 degrees, the oven didn’t function properly when attempting to not use the convection feature, one the two elevators was down for a day and a half which cause 20+ minute waits.

Nothing worse than traveling all night to get to your condo that rents for $500ish a night to walk into dirty nasty grim everywhere. Walls and trim destroyed with 3" of grim on the edge of tile. Light switches covered in grim. Dryer did not work well and they came to "fix" it. Didn't work as the pipes are full of lint. After going to Target to buy all new pillows and bed sheets we felt like we could sleep in the beds. All remotes were dead and the condo just lacked all amenities you'd expect like a spatula to flip an egg or hot sandwich. Furniture was worn out and needs to be replaced. We thought about what we would do if we own this until and we both said we'd replace everything.

We were blessed with jackhammering above us on Sunday morning at 8AM. We didn't mind it later in the day as we were at the beach but they didn't wait and we couldn't hear ourselves talk

This place is nice! 2 balconies, beautiful views of the ocean and bay plus its location is great!

On the flip side..
Its a little pricey for the sq footage.
NO BATHROOM DOOR of the main bedroom
The shower head pressure in the guest and main bathroom was so hard that it hurt to shower.
The dryer barely worked. Had to run 3 cycles to dry 4 towels.
MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!!!!!!
If you drive anything the size of a SUV or larger plan to have a HARD or almost impossible time parking on the property. You can only park downstairs or across the street in Free Public Parking. If its peak season or during a event/concert its gonna suck. Gulf Shore Rentals asked me to "go eat somewhere and come back" after driving 9hrs to get there.

The condo itself was nice. The cleaning job, not so great. Immediately upon check-in, we noticed several things that were filthy. I'm not one to be petty, so I won't list all the things we found. Suffice it to say that for $4500/wk, I expect it to be spotless. Other than that, we had a great stay. The accommodations were nice. It needs a little more maintenance on little things. But we really liked how quiet the place was with only 3 units per floor. I'd sray here again, but the housekeeping needs to pay more attention to detail.

We enjoyed staying in this condo. It was spacious and fit the 8 of us perfectly. I loved how there was a balcony from every bedroom. Beautiful view of the water. It was clean and kept up. It was nice to be right on the beach. There are 2 pools you can use, one outdoor and one indoor, both are nice. The beds were nice and comfortable.

There is a washer and dryer available for use, but the dryer takes FOREVER. We wanted to wash our towels we had been using and it took several hours tor them to dry.
There were a few things we didn’t care for, but it didn’t ruin our trip, by any means.
The TV was not working in one of the rooms. There is no door separating the bathroom from the master bedroom. Which was such a strange thing. So showering and using the restroom was not very private. The handles of several of the doors were sticky, as if they just hadn’t been wiped down when it was cleaned. The water went out in the unit(and the entire building) one afternoon, but it was fixed fairly promptly.
We did have issues with parking on site. The first day we were there we ended up having to park in public parking due to there not being any parking available on the ground level.
My husband and myself have large vehicles and could not go up the ramp for the parking garage. It is stated in SEVERAL areas for smaller vehicles to park on the higher levels. There were compact cars parked on the ground level!! It was very inconsiderate of these people to not park on the higher levels. There’s a security guard that can ask them to move, but can’t make them. Therefore forcing people with larger vehicles to park offsite. Which is ridiculous. There were PLENTY of parking spots available on the upper levels. Something needs to change when it comes to that.
Overall we had a great stay, we loved eating our breakfast and drinking our coffee on the balcony each day. Plenty of room for all 8 of us. We never felt like we were o

This rental was very nice; only complaint were dirty baseboards and some paint issues in the bathrooms; molded baseboards around the tub. Shower curtains were way too long for the tub, making for an awkward shower. Other than the bathroom issues, the condo was perfect for our family and offered a wonderful view.

The property was in a great location and our family enjoyed being in this unit. It provided a beautiful view and there was very good dishes, pots and pans, etc. The living room rug looked dirty and could be replaced. The toilet tank in the front bedroom was full of mold and needs to be cleaned. Overall, we were very happy.

We had never heard of the area of Gulf Shores until the week before we booked. We got lucky and an available unit popped up out of the blue. To say we were thrilled with our stay at Island Tower would be an understatement.

The unit had a giant balcony that had a million dollar view from the balcony. That in and of itself was worth the reasonable weekly cost. Being directly on the beach not only made going back and forth to the beach. Breeze with the kids, between the beach and having a pool you felt like you never had to leave the property. Good furnishings and well cared for by the property manager. Only negatives of the whole trip was the two elevators not always working the heat and the very narrow parking structure. Living in the south means nearly 90% of vehicles are trucks and the parking garage added an element of skill needed to fit on any level but the ground floor.

My young children and my wife and I felt this was one of our most relaxing vacations ever and can’t wait to return in the future.

Although the view was stunning from the 19 th floor, And the bedrooms were nice, the inside Great room appeared run-down with a dirty couch and rug. Baseboards looked as if they had never been cleaned. It was priced very high for the quality of the place.
