Recent Gulf Shores guest reviews

Good morning This was our first family trip to the beach and we had the condo 615 and 614 for all of our family and we were beyond blessed from the moment we arrived with the comforting of the room. Everything was beyond perfect for all of us and look forward to seeing the same view next year.

Good morning This was the first time that I’ve been on vacation to the beach my experience from the moment we arrived. The room was extremely welcoming and comfortable the view of the beach from where we were at was phenomenal. I will 100% recommend the lighthouse to anyone who ask about our trip and we plan on making arrangements to come back this time next year hopefully have the same view
