Spring Break 2013

The location is convenient to everything. Easy to get to restaurants, outlets, Ft. Morgan, grocery stores, etc. The unit itself is large and comfortable. We loved having an end unit! The views were beautiful and everyone had their own space. The owners and rental office were very easy to work with and very responsive to any issues. The only issue for me was the lack of lounge chairs at the interactive pool and the outdoor portion of the indoor/outdoor pool was very small. If you are there to lounge by the pool, keep that in mind. Having said this, the owner has provided very nice lounge chairs on the balcony, which compensated for the pool area. If you are there for a beautiful, comfortable, and convenient place to stay with gorgeous beach views and white sandy beaches, this is the place to stay! Be sure to stop at Blaylock Seafood and Gourmet Market for fresh steamed shrimp, smoked tuna dip, gumbo, and wine. Then enjoy the view from the condo while you eat. Couldn't ask for a better dining experience!

This condo felt like it was our home away from home! The views were gorgeous, good location for walking to places, and overall it was a great place to stay! Definitely recommend this condo to others. We didn't want to leave!

Excellent location and condo

We had an excellent visit to Seawind in December. The view is great and we especially enjoyed the beautiful sunsets. The two king size bedrooms with private baths made for a pleasant stay. Although there were no children with us, we thought the children's room with bunk beds was very nice. The condo is nicely furnished with TVs in all rooms which provides a choice for everyone. The full kitchen is well stocked with all the necessary utensils for preparing full meals.

The condo is in a good location near good restaurants and activities. I hope to be able to return to Seawind again to see more of Gulf Shores and surrounding areas and knowing that the condo is a great place to vacation.

Not worth the hassle!

We've rented many condos and private homes across America through VRBO and never had a problem until now. We had a wonderful weekend in the condo but despite a promise in writing to return our deposit within 10 days, a month later no reply from the owner despite several requests. I've called Seawind directly and get the same answer, "The owner travels out of the country a lot". I've been out of the country for the past week but still take care of my domestic responsibilities.
Not worth the hassle!

The condo was just as described...the view from the balcony was breathtaking. The 2 bedroom and bonus room with bunkbeds was perfect for our family. Great location for everything!

This is an absolutely gorgeous condo with incredibly comfy beds. We have rented beach condos for 20+ years. Everyone agreed, this was the one that felt most like home. We highly recommend this condo and this facility. Happy Surfing!

Had a great time and the condo was beautiful. We went June the 6th-10th and the beach and ocean were just great. We had no oil problems and there was no smell. We hestitated to go but so glad that we did. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back for sure.

Our family of four had a fantastic time in this condo!! It is beautifully decorated and the views are spectacular. We all felt right at home and didn't want to leave! We loved the location, decor, and complex. My favorite thing was the window by the table - you could look out down the entire beach while you ate! We hope to come back soon!!

Six of us had a girls weekend this fall. All of us were very impressed with your
condo and the furnishings. We had a great time and will be doing this again in
April at your condo. We had never used VRBO rental before and were really
nervous but you made it easy and we SAVED money to spend at the outlets and
on drinks. Girls just got to have FUN!!

Seven LSU sorority sisters last single weekend together! WOW did we have fun!
Thank you for helping us send our sister out right. This was the best weekend
we ever had thanks to your condo and a few local friends. Your place ROCKS!

It is really nice to stay somewhere that exceeds the internet description and
pictures. This place is great. We could live here because it feels like home. We
want to book second week in July 2010 again.

The weather was beautiful as well as the condo.

It is really impressive how much thought and effort
your family has put into making sure the condo is
top notch.

Now, if only you could provide a magic wand in the
room to make my two year old have a better
attitude...it was a wonderful stay.

Thank you!
