Everyone needs to remember that all the condos are owned by individual people. Just because Suncoast does things like extra fees does not meen we all do. Go to VRBO my condo is a 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom listing number 391377 . We have just bought it and it is a very nice unit. Check it out we would... More

We have stayed several times at the Boardwalk and have tried various other condo units but we always come back to the Bwalk. Yes, it is an older building and some of the units have not been upgraded but we come to GS for the beach and the food. Within walking distance of several selections of good eateries and beach...

Our fist time visiting Gulf Shores Alabama and we loved it. We stayed at the Boardwalk and loved being on the beach. The condo we had needed some updating but it was very clean and that's more important to me than the decor. If I visit Gulf Shores again I would stay there.

This was the smallest condo I have ever seen. Lights were burned out, outlits did not work, so bring an extension cord. The internet was as slow as christmas and the remote only went down not up. We will not stay here again.

Three things: 1. Suncoast Realty tacks on A LOT of fees. There was a $100 "cleaning fee". I don't pay that at a hotel and should not pay that here. Then a "beach fee" then a "processing fee" and on and on and on. The final price we paid was almost double the nightly rate after all the fees were... More

I totally agree with kyhalfpt’s assessment (see below). We’ve stayed at the Boardwalk multiple times and love the location. We’ve been coming to Gulf Shores since the 70’s, originally staying in the motel that was adjacent to the Boardwalk. When a condo building replaced it, we moved to the Boardwalk. Each unit is owned individually so the décor and updates... More

The Boardwalk is centrally located to many places to eat and have fun. We stay there often and have a blast every time. I highly recommend Boardwalk.

Be aware this is a 25 year old property. There are lots of other choices comparable in cost. Some windows won't open and patio doors don't lock, Location is fantastic right next to the Sea 'nSuds.THe facility needs updating.

We recently stayed at the Boardwalk during our visit to the Shrimp Festival. The location of the condo is perfect. It is right next to Sea-N-Suds restaurant (home of great, fast seafood and the best Long Island Tea on the beach) and just a few blocks from the shrimp festival. There is a gift shop on the ground floor that... More
