Wonderful getaway!

I have stayed at many properties in Gulf Shores over the years. This is one of the best! The communication with property owner was fantastic! The condo itself was nicely stocked, welcoming & very clean! Security was helpful & friendly, pool & hot tubs were clean & nice. The view from our balcony was beautiful & we had easy access to the beach. We will be back to stay in this unit for sure!

Short stay for fun in the sun

We picked the place for the convenience and location close to the beach for a few days of sun at the beach to relax and get some sun away from crowds. We got everything we wanted. Our hosts were amazing in that they were prompt in answering any questions that we had, which were not many. The place was great and lived up to every expectation.

Anniversary trip

Everything about Sophun was wonderful! The decor is so cute, it is very clean, and you can't beat the views from the 12th floor balcony! Meryl was the perfect hostess and always immediately responded to any questions we had. It was the perfect place for a long weekend to celebrate our 30th anniversary. Would also be perfect for a family with 2 younger children. Highly recommend!

PERFECT VACAY!

The condo is nice, roomy, and exactly as described except BETTER in person!! Meryl truly cares about your experience at Gulf Shores being the best. The ocean is literally steps away and the parking space is very close to the elevator. The overall location was easy to find and get to restaurants or stores. The building was clean and well kept. We will book again in the future!!

Our favorite place

This is our 3rd year in a row staying for a mom/daughter summer beach vacation. Me and my 2 daughters love it here! The condo is decorated beautifully and is always so spotless clean when we arrive. Fully stocked with whatever you could possibly need. The view is breath taking. And you could not ask for a better host than Ty and Meryl. They are so welcoming and easy to communicate with. This will forever be our condo for our mother/daughter girls vacation. We’ve made lots of memories the last 3 years. You won’t be disappointed!

Weekend vacation

My husband and I had a wonderful time while staying at this condo over Memorial Day weekend. The check in instructions were detailed, clear, and easy. I loved that there was reserved parking. We did not have to wait long for the elevator. The condo was clean and had an excellent view of the ocean. My husband and I enjoyed playing the board games that were provided. I personally liked the fact that the facility as a whole is a smoke-free facility. The condo was just steps from the beach! Very couple or family friendly. 10/10 recommend this condo. Will be keeping this condo saved/ in mind for future trips to Gulf Shores.
