What guests think
Across reviews of Gulf Shores Plantation 2326, guests frequently highlight easy beach access, multiple pools, and balcony views, along with generally clean, comfortable condos that match listings, making it a popular, family-friendly choice for a relaxed coastal stay.
The complex sits in a quiet, somewhat remote area, so expect fewer nearby attractions or restaurants. Several reviews mention inconsistent housekeeping at check-in, and a few note comfort or maintenance issues such as firm beds, a limited AC range, a brief elevator outage, or a nonworking hot tub. Overall, expect a laid-back condo stay with family-friendly amenities, mostly smooth service, and occasional hiccups.

Facilities
Multiple outdoor and indoor pools are highlighted, with boardwalk access to the beach and a nearby bar and restaurant. Parking is generally ample, though one reviewer noted confusion about a fee, and an outdoor hot tub was reported out of order.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Plantation! We were there for less than a week and spent most of our time on the property either by the pool or on the beach. Pros: It was not very crowded when we went, parking was ample, and the property was very clean outside. Amenities in the room were great (dishwasher, tv access, balcony view of the sunrise, full size fridge). Cons: The listing mentioned “free parking” but it was not free and the bed was uncomfortable.

Absolutely loved this condo. Extremely clean, amazing view, beach was never crowded. Take the time to explore all the pools! We found the pool directly in front of the condo to be too warm for our liking and the indoor pool too cool but the pool next to sassy bass was just right for us. So if explore the property there is options.

The best part of this condo is the location and the view from the balcony. We really enjoyed the time we spent here. The condo is really close to a nice, heated pool, and just past the pool is a boardwalk leading right to the beach. The condo was cute and clean and matched the description except that there is only a Keurig (brand new, works great...just bring K-cups) but no actual coffee pot.

What a treat to find a one bedroom condo that faces the beach. The views from the balcony were fabulous, and the beach was easily accessible on the boardwalk. Everything was clean and comfortable, although the bed and pillows were not to my liking, but you can't please everyone. I would recommend this condo.

We enjoyed our stay! Condo was nice and cozy. Kids loved the indoor pool, water was nice and cold. Beach access is a huge plus here and the view from the balcony was amazing. We watched dolphins from the porch! We loved the area, very family friendly. Kids loved the bunk beds which were perfect size for my 10 & 5 yr old. Pull out couch wasn’t very comfortable but they rarely are, it was great to have for another bed. Laundry room is close by if needed also. We’ve already discussed coming back!

The location is fantastic! Beach and pools very close. We loved the balcony looking at the ocean! The only issue we had was with the dirty dishes. The owner of the space asks whoever is staying to wash the dishes before leaving (no dishwasher). I guess nobody double-checked after the people who stayed before us because most of the dishes in the cabinets were still dirty. We washed them before and after using them just in case. Other than that, it was a great stay!

When we arrived to the condo we instantly noticed that it had not been cleaned. It looked like the only thing that had been done was the beds. There were crumbs all over the counter, table, and floor. I sent an email as instructed and received no response at all. I had to go out and buy my own cleaning supplies and I had to vacuum, sweep, mop and wipe everything down. I should not have had to do that. We liked the location and easy access to the pool. My kids had a great time. Other than the condo being dirty when we arrived, we still enjoyed our stay.

We arrived at property and were told it was being cleaned. Waited until notification that it was ready. Unpacked entire car to enter condo only to find NOTHING had been cleaned. It was FILTHY. Turns out it was not being cleaned. We had to load everything back into our vehicle (after a 14-hour drive) and wait until the room was cleaned. Took SEVERAL HOURS. Finally checked in several hours AFTER our designated check-in time. Still found uncleaned areas in condo, including feminine hygiene products in nightstand. Tried to contact POOLE Vacation Rentals each day throughout the week. We were IGNORED and/or calls/texts went unanswered all week. When we did finally speak with someone, their response was that it was someone else’s fault, not their responsibility and/or they could not do anything to help. Never got a straight answer. Their story changed each time we were finally able to speak with them or get a text returned from them. They insisted that because we booked through a third party, they could not help/refund our first night. We’re easygoing travelers, but we would absolutely NOT recommend booking through Poole Vacation Rentals. Poor communication, poor customer service, low quality overall.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Plantation! We were there for less than a week and spent most of our time on the property either by the pool or on the beach. Pros: It was not very crowded when we went, parking was ample, and the property was very clean outside. Amenities in the room were great (dishwasher, tv access, balcony view of the sunrise, full size fridge). Cons: The listing mentioned “free parking” but it was not free and the bed was uncomfortable.

We arrived at property and were told it was being cleaned. Waited until notification that it was ready. Unpacked entire car to enter condo only to find NOTHING had been cleaned. It was FILTHY. Turns out it was not being cleaned. We had to load everything back into our vehicle (after a 14-hour drive) and wait until the room was cleaned. Took SEVERAL HOURS. Finally checked in several hours AFTER our designated check-in time. Still found uncleaned areas in condo, including feminine hygiene products in nightstand. Tried to contact POOLE Vacation Rentals each day throughout the week. We were IGNORED and/or calls/texts went unanswered all week. When we did finally speak with someone, their response was that it was someone else’s fault, not their responsibility and/or they could not do anything to help. Never got a straight answer. Their story changed each time we were finally able to speak with them or get a text returned from them. They insisted that because we booked through a third party, they could not help/refund our first night.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Plantation! We were there for less than a week and spent most of our time on the property either by the pool or on the beach. Pros: It was not very crowded when we went, parking was ample, and the property was very clean outside. Amenities in the room were great (dishwasher, tv access, balcony view of the sunrise, full size fridge). Cons: The listing mentioned “free parking” but it was not free and the bed was uncomfortable.

Property was nice but not what I expected. They have many pics of different units on one posting and once booked its not sure what unit you will get. Overall its nice but not very close to attractions, with limited eating options. However, we enjoyed ourselves, and staff was nice

Property was as listed. Great access to beach and pools which is what we were looking for. Everything was clean and had the essentials for us to cook. Also the beach chairs were a pleasant addition! We would stay here again!

The best part of this condo is the location and the view from the balcony. We really enjoyed the time we spent here. The condo is really close to a nice, heated pool, and just past the pool is a boardwalk leading right to the beach. The condo was cute and clean and matched the description except that there is only a Keurig (brand new, works great...just bring K-cups) but no actual coffee pot.

Great location and view of the beach. Restaurant and pools were all close to our room. Only downfall was the AC wouldn’t go below 76

What a treat to find a one bedroom condo that faces the beach. The views from the balcony were fabulous, and the beach was easily accessible on the boardwalk. Everything was clean and comfortable, although the bed and pillows were not to my liking, but you can't please everyone. I would recommend this condo.

Absolutely loved this condo. Extremely clean, amazing view, beach was never crowded. Take the time to explore all the pools! We found the pool directly in front of the condo to be too warm for our liking and the indoor pool too cool but the pool next to sassy bass was just right for us. So if explore the property there is options.
