My husband and I stayed at this condo. It was our first time visiting Gulf Shores. The Condo was conveniently located, although not walking distance, it was only a short drive to the various attractions. The condo was clean, comfortable with all the conveniences of home. The pool and hot tub were an added bonus.We would definitely stay there again!

I stayed here with 3 teenagers. When we arrived, the unit was spotless. I enjoyed the patio; was a great place to sit in the morning with my coffee. We all enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking and baking utensils as well as dishes, flatware and cups and tumblers. The unit is very convenient to all the attractions. I also enjoyed the walking trails practically outside our door. We would definitely stay here again!

The week we spent in Gulf Shores was great. The condo was clean, as described, and had most of everything we needed(even added a few corks. The neighbors were friendly and didn't mind that we had a little dog with us and had plenty of room to walk her. The parking was never problem and we always were able to park near the door. The complex in very close to everything, and is very easy to get in and out of, since it is off the "main drag". We will certainly be getting in contact with Jan again, when we need a break from our day to day busy workload.
Thanks again and have a very Merry Christmas.
Recommended for: age 55+, girls getaway, pet-friendly
Owners response: Merry Christmas to you also! I also enjoy the close parking without having to get on elevators or walk any distance to get to my car. Also, the small back yard is something my dogs enjoy. It's always nice to take a break and I'm glad you enjoyed yours!

This was my family's first trip to Gulf Shores and we will definately be coming back. The condo was great, everything that we could have needed was right there. While not on the beach, the location was perfect for getting in and out of the property, and very quick and easy access to the beach and other attractions. Will definately be staying here again.

Jan was a pleasure to deal with and the condo was wonderful. It was close to everything and at a price that beat staying in a hotel by far and much nicer to boot.

This condo was more than we expected -- the pics & descriptions do not do it justice! It's beautiful, with high-end touches, but feels like a home. It was clean and well-stocked. There were lots of little "extras" -- true beach towels, laundry detergent, paper plates, a cooler to use at the beach, & much more -- that let you know Jan is concerned about her guests not having to worry about the minute details. As it's only about a mile down Ft Morgan Rd, it's centrally located -- just minutes away from everything. Jan was helpful, informative, & always quick to respond to my 47 questions! LOL It's a wonderful place & we are glad to have stayed -- Melissa

The condo was comfortable, clean, and well furnished. We enjoyed all the activities which were close, shopping, the beach, pool, hot tub, movie theater, and fine dining as well! I feel as if the assistance and customer service was beyond my expectation and it made for a worry free vacation week. It was fun as well to have my pet with me adding to my enjoyment. I would definitely recommend this condo.

Jan gave a more than accurate description of the condo and was very helpful in clarifying questions and concerns. It was centrally located, close to both the beach and shopping outlets, but not near any busy traffic. The condo was beautifully decorated and fully stocked with everything we might need: from towels and toilet paper to cooking supplies. It was especially clean as well. Would recommend this stay to anyone, young or old, singles or small families. Thanks for helping to make our vacation even more memorable than expected!

Looked forward to my first visit to Gulf Shores and it was even better that I expected. The condo is beautiful, new, quiet, modern deco and has all the conveniences of Home away from Home! The owner has thought of everything, and I would highly recommend this condo and hope to return!

Owners response: It's a real compliment when a guest wants to return. Gulf Shores has to me one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen. The Enclave at Oak Hill is well managed and centrally located, and I love that particular part of Gulf Shores. I clean and maintain this condo myself and am glad when someone enjoys their vacation!

The condo and complex is exactly as described... pool and area excellent, condo is perfect, all amenities excellent. The condo was easy to keep clean and everything worked as desired. Property was kept clean and well groomed. Jan was very helpful in our getting started and was always available and helpful via email and phone. We've enjoyed being in Gulf Shores for many winters especially for the duplicate bridge, tennis, and restaurants. The condo is very easy to find and very close to the mall at 59 and 180. The walking path along 180 seems to go for 5 miles or so... well used by pedestrians and cyclists.

Enclave at Oak Hill

This condo was perfect for our week-long winter getaway in Gulf Shores. We only wish we could have stayed longer. We found the condo to be just as described and had good communication with the owner. The condo is lovely and well-equipped, and the complex is beautifully landscaped. Our weather was so nice that we spent a few hours lounging by the pool. One of the reasons for choosing this property was that we could bring our little dog, and she appreciated the dog walking area at the complex. I enjoyed the nearby bike trail which I used for walking, and my husband was minutes away from his favorite golf course. The beach was nearby, just not out the window. We enjoy many things about Gulf Shores, and we found the location of this property perfect for us.

My husband & I stayed here over a week. We loved it! It was beautifully decorated & very comfortable & cozy. The back door opened to a private, wooded patio that we used every day for fresh air for our 2 dogs. Our children/grandchildren came to visit & we all thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Everything was convenient, the beach, resturants & shopping, especially Walmart. The owner, Jan, made sure everything went smoothly. We hope to stay there again this year.
