"Condo was as pictured. Only issue was kitchen sink backs up. Nice for a weekend out."
"This place was great! It had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location was amazing too, only being a short walk to the beach. The pools were all within walking distance which was nice having 4 kids to keep busy. This was our second stay in this condo and I’ll definitely be planning another stay!"
"Nice clean unit. Kitchen is well stocked. Pictures make unit look a little bigger than reality. Check in was very easy. Staff was friendly"
"We came with extended family for Thanksgiving and had the best time. Everything we needed was right there in the condo. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were cozy."
"Easy to locate and book property online."
"All staff were excellent. Condo was great!"
"All good except woman at gaurd shack upon arrival. And the fact some one (employee) came into our condo while we were out."
"We had a wonderful time. We would love to come back."
"It was ok"
"The location was great! We could watch our kids at the pool from the porch if we weren’t ready to join them quite yet and it was a 5 minute walk to the beach. One of our kids got sick so this was a nice feature. The unit was clean but old and could really benefit from a fresh coat of paint. The floors weren’t very clean and turned our socks brown. Plates and bowls were chipped but still useable. In the beginning we were told we had access to the indoor pool, but after arriving and asking for a key like our friends had from a different unit we were told we didn’t have access. We were actually told three different things by three different people but after about an hour on the phone the last person told us he would try to find a key. Finally, we got a key but no wristbands which are also required and we didn’t get the key to the pool until our 4th day of staying there. The key even had our unit number written on it! The weather was in the 60’s so it would have been really nice to have the pool key at the beginning of our trip instead of us calling them and telling us we didn’t have access. The master bath didn’t drain well and filled up half way every time we took a shower. They came out to fix it the next day and the maintenance guy was very nice! The hallway bathroom fan makes a really loud noise when it’s on and the internet isn’t very strong in the unit. The outlets were also difficult to use; when you plug something in it often falls out and you have to balance the plug so it doesn’t fall out. We were disappointed in the management of the property. Other units had keyless entry while on this unit you have to pick up and return the keys. A company also came by to spray for bugs while we were there but we weren’t notified at all this would be happening. We were also told to call the internet company ourselves about the internet not working because they were too busy. We manage properties for a living so unfortunately we felt a little like we were still at work during this vacation. The beach was also wonderful, very clean. You can rent an umbrella and two chairs for $40/day I think. You have to pay $20 for parking and Poole and Associates also charged a non-refundable deposit in addition to a booking fee that didn’t seem clear to us in the beginning. We thought the price was the price. For the money we spent, we would book somewhere nicer. We ended up leaving a day early."
"Great location and decorations. Kitchen was well stocked. Loved staying on the gulf. The cleaning crew did an excellent job- it was very tidy and surface clean."
"Great location. We were about 10-15 minutes out of the hussle and bussle of Gulf Shores but still close enough to enjoy the activities. Have been to Plantation before and have loved it so we will be back for a fifth time soon!"
"Great close to the pool, beach, and washer/dryers. Nice it wasn't right in town. 15 minute drive into gulf shores with traffic but so nice to be on a pretty secluded beach on most days. We have stayed in these units before and will be back!"
"Room was clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen. Loved the multitude of pools. Sassy Bass restaurant was great. Will be back!"
"My family had so much fun. It is a great place to stay"
"Poole and Associates were very kind and helpful with the entire booking process as well as checking in. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone and hope to go through them in the future as well! Location- We have stayed at the Plantation three times now and love it there. We like that it's a bit out of the way and not in the middle of everything. It's a nice, quiet, safe place to stay. This time there was some construction going on due to repairs being done still after the hurricane. Parking and loading/unloading weren't as easy as usual, but it wasn't too bad still. There are convenient carts to help with that. The plantation is great with all the pools and with this condo you also have access to the indoor pool which is very nice! Our children loved it and we had it to ourselves almost every time we went this time! The security guards are very nice and helpful as well! We always took the time to chat with them on our way back in from going out to eat and stuff. The condo itself was pretty nice. It's as shown in the pictures. The rooms aren't huge, but it wasn't too rough on our family of 7. We have children ranging from 2-13. Everyone had enough space to sleep and hang out when we were eating or just watching tv. There aren't many negatives about this place and none are worth mentioning here. We had a fabulous stay and would recommend this condo and the rental company to everyone!"
"We went with two adults and 5 kids ages 2-13. Plenty of sleeping space, great place to bring a family. The beach was only a short walk away, the pool was right outside the room, and laundry was just around the corner."
"We absolutely loved the Gulf Shores Plantation. The pool was right outside our doors which was nice, beach access was so close just down the walkway, and there was an indoor pool the kids were able to swim in once it got dark. The people were very friendly and it was just enough off the beaten path to where the beach was never packed! Absolutely recommend!"
"We had a great time staying at your facility! Kids enjoyed being so close to the beach and loved the pool! Hope to stay with you again soon!"
"We enjoyed our recent stay at the Gulf Shores Plantation Unit 1140. The condo was comfortable and had plenty of sleeping space. The facilities were great. We enjoyed use of the pool and hot tub which were conveniently located right outside of the condo. The beach was beautiful. We can't wait to stay again!"
"This property was a great property to stay at. My wife and I had our children with us and thoroughly enjoyed the property... aside from some minor oddities (ie not lighting over the bar, wobbly patio chairs, and too soft king bed) the property was clean, comfortable and in a great location on the grounds of the plantation... which for us is the perfect location near gulf shores and foley. With access to pools and multiple board walks we spent our days in the sunshine and went for dinner and activities in the evenings. We'll certainly add this to our lists of properties to stay at again in the future."
"The condo was very clean, first floor close to the beach and pool. The unit does not have a washer and dryer; however, there are washers and dryers located by the stairs. The unit had cooking utensils, no basic spices."
"We had a great time and enjoyed condo 1140!"
"The location of the unit was fantastic! Overlooking the pool and a short walk to the beach! Very peaceful area! It was clean and comfortable for the 6 of us. The kitchen was pretty small but adequate for what we needed. The Sassy Bass restaurant on property was AMAZING! So nice to just be able to walk to dinner! I would recommend to others!"
"We have visited Gulf Shores Plantation before and will specifically ask for this condo again. Very clean, neat and comfortable place to spend a week. Beds, appliances were all in good shape."
"We really liked Gulf Shores Plantation and our unit. We chose the bottom floor because we have 3 young kids - made it easier to get our stuff in and out, plus we felt the kids were safer. We were right by the pool, which was great, and it was very well maintained. The boardwalk to the beach was only a few steps away. We ate at Sassy Bass one day, which was nice to have a restaurant on property. We went with a group of 20, and each family was able to choose the unit that best suited them, but there were enough common areas to meet up. The only negative is that our unit could have been cleaned a bit better, especially the kitchen and dining area - we found crumbs and pieces of cereal on the floor. The bathrooms and bedrooms were cleaned well though. All in all, it was a wonderful vacation and a great value for our money."
"We love staying at the plantation, its clean and quiet and very peaceful. Mr taubels room is a wonderful room, makes u feel at home and plan to stay here again next summer"
"We loved our Mothers/Daughters week! Adorable condo with the gorgeous beach steps away We hope to return and have recommended this home to friends. Thank you for sharing"
"Love it the condo was just like it was on the pics.. I will return with my family"
"We were very happy with our stay in the condo. Loved the decor, perfect location for us, peaceful and relaxing for sure! We wish we could have stayed forever but will surely return next chance we get!"
"Our family of 5 from northern MN thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay. The condo was decorated so nicely. The beds were all very comfortable. The facilities at the resort were all wonderful. The patio overlooks one of the outdoor pools which our family enjoyed several times, even in November! The walk to the beach was short and enjoyable. We felt safe here as well with the security booth as well as roaming security guards keeping an eye on things. We are already making plans to return next year! (Wish we could stay forever!)"
"Great unit. Very nicely furnished. Quick walk down the board walk to the beach. There is a great view of the pool area. The grounds were well kept. Quiet area, off the beaten path."
"We loved our stay, and enjoyed it very much, we will defiantly be back again"
"5 stars for a very relaxing and fun trip. We had a beachfront view, which was wonderful. The entire family really enjoyed our time spent at the Gulfport Plantation Condos. Mr. Rob our agent was a very pleasant gentleman, who has such a wonderful personality. Thank you Mr. Rob for a great experience, and we hope to come back again real soon with more family members. The condo is actually in Fort Morgan, but is only 12 miles from Gulf Shores which after you drive to town to Wal-Mart etc, it really is not bad at all. Very relaxing getaway."
"This condo provided exactly what our family needed, a relaxing and quiet environment to enjoy a vacation. I would certainly recommend this condo to any guest that wants to enjoy the beautiful beach without the chaos of being in the city limits of Gulf Shores or Orange Beach."
"This condo was well equipped with all we needed. The sofa sleeper was very comfortable which was very important with our large family. We could see the pool great from our unit which was great for our kids. Loved the blackout curtains that kept out the early morning sun. The beach itself was beautiful and so private. Would definitely stay in this unit again. You could tell the owners tried to make it as homey as possible."
"The condo was great! Would definitely stay here again"
