My family (myself, wife, and two young children) spent a week at Gulf Shores Plantation at the end of August. We stayed in a 3BD/2BA condo in the Plantation West area. We had a great vacation but noticed that many areas of the resort were in need of repair or renovation. Here are some of our thoughts: Pros: - The... more

My fiance and I stayed at Gulf Shores Plantation two years ago with another couple, and we loved it. I was the one who planned the trip, and everyone gave me such a hassle about booking a beach trip to Alabama, but it turned out great! We were not looking for a busy club or party area, so it was... more

My daughters and I recently went on vacation in Gulf Shores, Alabama. We stayed at Gulf Shores Plantation, Unit 5112. It is a wonderful place to stay!. The unit was very clean, beds were comfortable, and it was well supplied with everything we needed. The view of the ocean from the balcony was just beautiful! The owner of the unit... more

We just got back from a week's stay at Gulf Shores Plantation. We stayed in Rm 3114. We were so upset when we got there. We have timeshares in Ft Lauderdale, but decided to try something different.

We have been coming to the plantation for 18 years. It is in a great location and we have always enjoyed the family atmosphere. We stock up and stay at the resort for the entire week. It has always been a bit expensive for often outdated decor etc but the location and facilities more than made up for that. This... more

This was our 4th stay at Gulf Shores Plantation and as usual we were very pleased.

Get one of the nicer ones and you won't be disappointed. The money isn't that much different anyway.... more

One could tell they were preparing for the tourist months ahead. The landscaping crew were trimming the hedges, the flowers were all lovely, the pool areas were very nice, everyone was courteous. The board walk was clean with several areas to wash the sand off your feet. The beaches were lovely and clean. They just need to get the internet... more

This was our first trip to GulfShores Plantation. After reading some of the reviews I was a little worried but after we arrived I saw that it was in better condition than everyone said. Our room was clean, and comfortable. It had everything that we needed and then some. The pools were right near our room and the beach was... more

This was our second year at the Plantation. We love it. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The pools and hot tubs were clean and we used all of them but one that was under construction, but it's nice to see it being upgraded. The view was spectacular. We will be going back year after year with... more
