First, I just want to say that the location of this condo is amazing, which was our highest priority in choosing a place to stay. The balcony provides an unobstructed view of the protected beachfront and ocean. We enjoyed sitting outside with our coffee in the morning watching the wildlife and the waves. There was easy access to the beautiful beach and it wasn't too crowded. The Fort Morgan area seems to be less developed than some of the other gulf coast destinations, which is an added bonus.
With that said, our experience of the property itself was mediocre. When we first arrived, we noticed a thick layer of dust/hair covering many of the surfaces, including the kitchen cabinets, the furnace room door, and the bathroom door. We were also missing bedding for the hide-a-bed. We contacted the host and they sent a crew the next day to address our cleaning concerns, change the furnace filter, and bring bedding. After the spot cleaning, we continued to notice additional areas over the course of our stay that were not up to par from a cleanliness standpoint.
The property was also in a minor state of disrepair -- the bathroom door didn't close, the bathroom outlet didn't work, the sink sprayer didn't work, and the lamps flickered when plugged into the designated extension cord.
The bunk beds worked out well for young kids, though a ladder into the top bunk would have been nice. The hide-a-bed also worked well for young kids, but the mattress is very thin and, in our opinion, is not suitable for adult use.
On our trip, we also had bad luck as far as the weather was concerned. We were excited to have access to an indoor pool. We knew that one of the indoor pools was closed for construction, so we headed over to the second indoor pool. It's a very nice pool and space, but unfortunately during our trip the heating element was broken and our kids refused to swim because the water was so cold. The staff we spoke with were unsure of when it would be fixed.
