Serenity With Style

This property was perfect for my holiday. It is located in a small building on the Gulf side of Beach Boulevard; in other words, it is right on the beach. The unit is accessed by a staircase leading to the first floor.

On the inside, the unit is tastefully decorated, cozy,and very clean. Some of the furnishings, like the carpeting in the master, are a bit worn in places but still very nice. The unit was completely supplied with all of the items I needed for my stay: plenty of towels, blankets. The kitchen was also supplied with most everything one would need to make a simple meal, except the ingredients and the seasonings.

There is a small grocery within walking distance; within a 10 minute ride there are several larger grocery chains and many restaurants. Check out the Original Oyster House on 59. Also try Lartigue's Seafood Market for fresh boiled shrimp and other delectable seafood products.

Some of the things I did while I was there include a drive east toward Pensacola Beach, a ferry ride west to Dauphin Island and dinner at Felix's east of Mobile, and shopping at the Tanger Outlet center on 59 in Foley. I also tried to visit Alligator Alley, but it was closed for the season.

Overall, I would highly recommend this property. I would stay here again myself. Not only did the owner provide accurate details about the property, but she was also very helpful and accomodating. On the night I arrived, I had major problems finding the property. I contacted the call service and within 10 minutes Kim was on the phone with me giving me more detail to help me out. She provided me with her private cell phone number, just in case. That impressed me!

I left Gulf Shores relaxed and ready for a great new year thanks to Spyglass and Kim Lang!

Dirty and small

The condo was very dirty and small. If we had all 6 of us came it would we crowded. Pictures are deceiving of how big it was. After several contacts to rental company we were able to get $100 back from the rental fee. We will not be back.

This was our second time to say in this unit and it was as clean as it was 2 years ago. We definitely appreciated the chairs, umbrella and beach towels that are provided by the owner. This is definitely on the top of our list to stay again next year.
The price was awesome as well!
