Island Winds East 409

Great condo on the Gulf

"My sister and I rent this condo for a month every winter. We LOVE the location. (so close to the city park, some restaurants are within walking distance). The owner has been doing some updates in the past few years which have been much appreciated. (now all new appliances, new couch this year, etc). Really great place to spend time on the beach in the winter. Thanks"

We enjoy hosting you year after year! It truly has been a pleasure. Thank you so much for the wonderful review and we look forward to your next visit.

Fun Get Away

"My sister in law and I had a wonderful stay here! We loved the location, the veiw, and condo! There were a few small very tiny issues with room, but nothing major that we could not enjoy our trip or room. The VIEW was amazing from inside the condo as well as the outside!!! We had an amazing time here and definitely would stay again!! "

Great room!

"Very nice stay in unit 409. I read a lot of negative reviews on VRBO but I have to say we had no issues! Very polite staff, room had everything we needed. Yes, washer is loud but who cares, start it before you leave room and you won’t be bothered!! Will def book again in future!"

"Overall—our condo was perfect. There were a few first world problems such as no pot holders, or dust pan, and only one larger frying pan, but the beds were nice and the water pressure was good! The balcony had the perfect view of the ocean from our morning coffee! "

"Thank you for the review! I am glad you enjoyed the stay. You really cannot beat the view from this balcony, it is a perfect view of the Gulf!"

"I was initially nervous about booking this property after reading several negative reviews. We were very pleased with our experience. Yes, the property is older and the furnishings could use some updating, but that didn't bother us. It was clean, location was perfect and views were amazing! We spent most of our time on the balcony looking out at the gorgeous beach. "

"We are so glad you enjoyed your visit! Thank you for choosing Sunset Properties. "

"It was great. The condo was really nice. The only thing that I might suggest is something is up with the AC in the condo. It was very humid and hot no matter what the AC was set to. Not sure if some humidifiers are needed or what. Since it was spring break it wasn’t bad, but during the summer months I feel like it would be too humid in that particular condo.
"

"Thank you for taking time to leave a review. We have checked that AC out!"

"Perfect location, we stay at this location and west a few times a year, both locations are great."

"Michael, thank you so much for staying with us! We were so happy to have you! We appreciate the great review and would love to book your next trip to the beach! "

"We stayed at this unit for the Shrimp Festival. The location was perfect! The views were awesome! Only a few comments on things that could have gone better. No linens for the couch/bed until I contacted SP twice, the batteries didn't work right in the remote control for the TV(we had to buy batteries) and the toilets were way too low to the ground for folks with knee issues - updated toilets (standard height toilets would have made a great difference). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. "

"Janet, we really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review about your stay at Island Winds East! I'm so glad you enjoyed your time there and we will pass along the recommendations on the toilets. We look forward to having you stay with us again!"

"It was a great location! The veiw was absolutely breathtaking inside and out side the room! The rental was clean, only minor issues like light bulbs. The communication with Sunset was amazing, when I called they were extremely nice to work with. We had an amazing time, definitely would stay I'm this room/condo again!!"

"Yay! Thank you for the great review and we would love to have you stay with us again!"

"A beautiful view of the Gulf Shores where drinking your coffee was breath taking by the morning sunshine. Looking forward to this again. "

"Morning sunshine is the best! I'm glad you got to enjoy it! We look forward to having you stay again! "

"We reserved this place to be within walking distance of the Shrimpfest but then Shrimpfest was cancelled. We went anyway because we enjoy the beach in October. The furniture in this condo needs to be replaced. One of the chairs in the living room had a very large rip in the seat as well as being dirty. We were only allowed one parking pass and had to pay $28.75 for the one, so be prepared for that. We have never stayed anywhere that you have to pay for a parking pass. Someone other than the property management company handled the parking passes and they were not very friendly. Other than that, we enjoyed the location and being right on the beach was a plus. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much."

"We're glad you came even though Shrimpfest was cancelled! The beach is always open! We will pass along your observations to the owner about the furniture. I know the owner is in the process of replacing furniture; however due to supply chains issues that we are all facing, it has also effected the furniture industry. Geeez! As for the parking passes, most all of our properties require passes. Some places allow us to purchase them for the guest and have them waiting in the property, and some associations require the guest who is staying to purchase them upon arrival, which as you can see is Island Winds West. We hate they did not display the southern hospitality that we are known for... Dang it! Please check out our website to view all of our properties. I'm sure you will find a property that will be perfect for your next vacation! "

"Our Family had another great Fourth of July on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico.Third year in a row with the same room, Love the spot and the view!! Right by the HangOut!!"

"Mary, thank you so much for taking time to write a review and for choosing our condo to come back to! Let us know when you're ready to book next year. "

"We had a great time."

"Awesome! I am so glad you enjoyed your stay!"

"Loved the location, there was plenty of room, loved the big balcony, loved everything. The only negative to our stay was the air conditioning didn’t seem to be working. We already talked with the owners and they set out right away to get maintenance to fix it. Glad there was ceiling fans and the weather wasn’t hot yet. "

"Thank you for the review! I apologize about the air conditioning! I hope that y'all were not uncomfortable during your stay. Come on back down and stay with us again!"

"Overall it was a great time. Very convenient location, helpful, friendly staff. Luckily they added a second bike rack to accommodate all the bikes. The only real negatives were the sleeper couch. ( Not comfortable to sit on to watch TV but after all it was a sleeper couch.) and the kitchen needs appliance updating. Lots of rust starting on them but still worked just fine."

"Thank you, Robert, for telling us about your stay in Island Winds East! We are so glad you chose to stay with us! I hope it was a great experience for you and that you will stay with us again!"

"Great service,easy rental, everything handled nicely over the phone."

"Yay! Thank you so much for staying with us year after year! We love our repeat guests and look forward to seeing you back next year!"
