  5/5

  We were able to check in an hour early. The host communicated the information on how to acess the property well in advance. He was in close communication with us and offered to assist us if we needed anything. Upon arriving the condo was CLEAN, which is really the main thing everyone wants. There were plenty of towels and two laundry detergent packs. We washed towels once during our five night stay. Kitchen was stocked with anything someone might need to cook and serve a meal with plenty of plates and bowls and silverware and utensils. The refridgerator was large and CLEAN with ample freezer space. Blender, toaster, pod coffee machine and drip coffee machine. There happened to be two beach chairs and a beach umbrella in the laundry room closet but we did not use them since we had our own. Sand toys were also in the laundry room. Twin beds in the guest room was great for my teens. KING bed in the master was a nice treat for a rental. Two full baths meant we could get ready without fighting for space. Very spacious balcony with table and four chairs for dining and two tall chairs and tall table for sitting with drinks. We used two out of the three TVs and they had DirecTV that worked just fine. Internet was easily accessible and had no issues.Conveniently located to restuarants and shopping. We walked across the street twice for dinners at two different resturants and ice cream. Kids walked to Coastal via the beach for food and drinks. We would rent again and recommend!!!!

• In one word, "Perfect"

  5/5

  Our family had such a great time at Orange Beach and this condo was amazing. The unit was very clean and spacious. The kitchen was nice and updated, we cooked daily in the unit. The pool was great, we spent more time at the indoor pool because the weather wasn't top notch but we still found time to go to the beach everyday. Everyone is so nice at the condo and in town, plenty of great placed to eat. I can't say enough good things about the trip, simply it was perfect! We will definitely be back! Thanks so much!

• END OF SUMMER

  2/5

  Our trip was End of Summer, but this condo should be listed as End of Life! It had that musty, been closed up for a long time, smell! The patio furniture was very uncomfortable. The linens were thin & scratchy like something you would expect from a cheap motel. The rug in the living room was filthy & needed to be thrown out! The items in the laundry room meant for beach use were rusted, rotten, & full of sand like they had just been thrown in there & never looked at again by anyone. On a positive note, the appliances were nice & new & VERY large. Spending time in the kitchen is just not my thing when I'm on vacation. As for the Tidewater complex as a whole, I hope they will take some time in the off season to do some cleaning & fixing up. Many of the tiles were missing around the pool. The furniture at the pool area was ugly & very uncomfortable. I would not stay here again.

  Manager's Response:

  Sherri, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  -We hope you were able to experience the care we've put into the recent upgrades in the kitchen, master bathroom, and living room
  -The rug in the living room has been recently cleaned, however, we have decided to replace it
  -We do our best to rinse the beach chairs between each use and have inspected them after your stay for signs of wear
  -While individual preferences vary, we have chosen high-quality commercial linens that will withstand laundering and sanitization between guests while still being soft
  -We've passed on your feedback regarding the communal pool to our complex for further consideration
  We appreciate your feedback so we can continue to improve and help this homeowner provide guests with the 5-star service they are known for. We hope to host you again soon!

• Overdue getaway to a favorite place!

  5/5

  Wonderful condo with excellent communication from owners. Kitchen was fully stocked(much appreciated) along with every other detail well tended. Very clean and nicely decorated unit. Check in was the easiest method ever. The Tidewater complex was a wonderful small/mid size to enjoy instead of the larger complexes. We would definitely return to this unit as the owners have created such a wonderful experience for guests of all ages.

• Condo was great!!

  5/5

  We had a great time. The Tidewater condo is sandwiched between two very tall buildings. You are on it before you realize it. With heavy traffic it can be very difficult pulling in. Needs better signage from the road.
