Sugar Beach | Apartment in Orange Beach, Alabama

Sugar Beach Condominiums 23044 Perdido Beach Blvd, Orange Beach, AL
NO SMOKING IN THIS CONDO
CONDO DETAILS: This condo is unique for Sugar Beach. It is the only one of its size at 11' x 18'. This may seem small, but it is built in a way that provides plenty of space for a couple to enjoy their stay at the beach. There is NO BALCONY on this unit, but a large eastern facing window that lets in beautiful natural lighting. It is in the northeast corner of the east wing of Sugar Beach Condominiums on the Gulf of Mexico. Yes, it does overlook the dumpster :) but it also provides a cozy stay with all the necessities and a nice barefoot walk to the beach.
There is NOT a clothes washer or dryer and kitchen area is very abbreviated without stove or dishwasher, but it does have a mini-refrigerator, toaster oven, coffee maker, microwave oven, and stainless-steel kitchen sink. There are plates, bowls, cups and silverware for (3) people. IT HAS A 30" X 30" SHOWER (NO TUB). As you can see in the pictures, there is a table and chairs that stow away nicely. Again, it is a small condo, but it is beautifully designed with functionality in mind. Excellent WiFi - Flat screen 42" TV w/ remote and Cable TV. A telephone is NOT provided.
The condo was completely refurbished December of 2018 with new all tile floor, Air Conditioner with Heat, Keyless Entry Door, high-quality custom-built cabinets, Tempur-Pedic Queen Bed in Horizontal Murphy cabinet which sleeps 2. The condo also features a couch which can possibly sleep 1 person. Custom shelving and closet for hanging storage, bathroom cabinets, hooks for hanging clothes and towels, 30” SHOWER (NO BATHTUB), cosmetic mirror, hair dryer, and elongated toilet. Bath sets, linens and kitchen towels, and 2 rolls of toilet paper are provided.
NO PETS are allowed, as per Sugar Beach Condominium Association Rules.

PARKING: Parking is an additional $35. per vehicle, per stay. (This is a one-time charge, NOT PER DAY). The $35 is payable at the gate to the Security Guard on duty in GREEN CASH ONLY. Parking is NOT INCLUDED in my quote.
HOUSEKEEPING FEE: In your quote there will be a one-time cleanup fee of $75.00.
UNIQUE BENEFITS: One of the few condos on the beach with a Snack Bar that has decent food, beach items, and serves alcohol. (Open during warmer / seasonal months). There are 3 large outdoor pools, 1 kiddie pool, grilling and picnic areas, tennis courts, and onsite covered parking.
WHY THIS PROPERTY: This is a well-kept and maintained property. Before buying this condo, I visited the property in the busy season to see what the guests were like. Very family oriented and friendly. Great location! Sugar Beach is in the western area of Orange Beach, right on the area’s famous white-sand beaches down from Gulf State Park. Only a 4-minute walk to Hugh S. Branyon Backcountry Trail & Rosemary Dunes Trailhead, great for hiking or bike riding. Trail entry and exit is across the street from the condo between Planet Smoothie and the Dippin’ Dots Ice cream shop. Both perfect finish lines for that beautiful hike or bike ride through the park. More excitement is only a 4-minute ride away at Adventure Island where you will find family fun with mini golf, an erupting volcano replica, go karts, bumper boats, lazer tag, and an arcade. If looking for a delicious dressy casual brunch, lunch, or dinner, the Pier House is only a 1-minute drive to the west. They offer fine cuisine for dine in, carry out, or delivery. For a local seafood joint adorned with dollar bills serving up crab cakes, po' boys & cocktails, The Flying Harpoon 2 is only a 1-minute drive to the east. Within a 2-minute drive you also have Wolf Bay Lodge Restaurant, Ruby Slipper Café, Doc’s Seafood and Steaks, and Live Bait Restaurant.
OFF SEASON RENTERS: If you love an ultra-quiet beach stay, the off-season months here at Sugar Beach are perfect for you. The beautiful white sandy beaches are clear and void of many people. The kids are back in school and time at the beach seams to significantly slow down. No rushing traffic, no waiting at restaurants, just a warm cup of coffee from Southern Grind across the street and your bare feet relaxing in the sand. Although our guests and families are very nice and friendly, this is prime time for those who are simply not so fond of crowds. Off season is considered “winter months” but let’s face it, our winter months are cooler but mostly still warm enough to get in the water and lay in the sun. Perfect time to enjoy a full day at the beach without having a heat stroke. It is a great time for those “adult only” getaways or those quick family weekend trips for locals with a short drive.
Gulf State Park and hiking trails are open all year round.
Adventure Island is open all year round but will be closed 2 days a week (Mon. and Tues.) during off-season months (November – March)
Snack Shack at Sugar Beach is closed October – April. But the local eateries within a few minutes’ drive are all still open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
SUGAR BEACH CONDOMINIUMS is an elevated building with parking underneath. This condo is located on 1st floor of the 3-story concrete building on the Gulf (South) side of highway, but it is not Gulf front and does not have a Gulf View. If you use the stairs to the condo, they are directly across the hall from the condo. The Gulf of Mexico with its beautiful beach is only a barefoot walk away.
OTHER UNIQUE CONDOS: If you prefer something slightly larger and would like a full kitchen to cook your vacation meals, I suggest one of my other condos in Sugar Beach. The listings are 761885 and 553930. Please take note and type the numbers in the VRBO search bar to easily find and view them.

If you have not received the access information email within five days of your arrival, please check your spam and/or junk folder. If you cannot find it there, please let me know so I can send it to you via some other avenue of communication. Please check your spam folder first, and then call me at 251-423-6500 to let me know you have not received your condo access information.
Entry combination is only valid after 4:00 pm on day of check-in and will work until 10:00 am day of check-out.
NO EARLY CHECK IN OR EXTENSIONS WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM MANAGEMENT.
10:00AM is the check-out time on the ending day of your stay. EXAMPLE: IF THE AGREED CHECK OUT DATE IS THE 15th, YOU NEED TO VACATE THE PROPERTY ON THE 15th BY 10:00AM CENTRAL TIME.
CHECK-OUT POLICY: I'm sorry to have to put this on my page, but unfortunately, not everyone follows the rules: On day of check out, 10:00AM is the time all your property and possessions are to be removed from the condominium. If for whatever reason your property and possessions are not completely removed from the condominium, they will be removed and stored at a location off premises at the direction of management. A $100.00 fee payable in CASH will be charged for the redemption of your property and possessions at the convenience of the management or assignee of management. Management will not be responsible for any property and possessions that may be missing, lost, stolen or broken in the lot of property and possessions that are involved in the removal, transit, or storage of said property and possessions.
WEATHER CANCELLATION: Only if there is a "Named" storm, (Example: Hurricane Piña or Tropical Storm Colada) that is forecast to make landfall, not the forecast window models, during your stay or 72 hours prior to your stay, within 100 miles of Orange Beach, AL, cancellations are accepted.
DAMAGE DEPOSIT is refunded back to the payment method used to pay for the condo rental approximately (2) two weeks after checkout, PROVIDED there has not been any smoking in the condo or other damage that is not considered normal wear and tear. If there has been damage or smoking in condo, it will be documented and cleanup for smoking is an additional $150.00. I'm not looking to profit from this at all, but there have been several instances of people smoking in my condos without regard for my condo or future non-smoking guests and just "asking politely" has not worked. If a light bulb burns out, no problem. If there are urine stains or urine-soaked bed, problem. If there are holes in the sheetrock, problem.
Did I mention NO SMOKING IN THIS CONDO?
I know I’m a little repetitive with the no smoking, thing, but this is a no smoking condo and I’m trying to look out for the guests that do not smoke. I want to make it clear, there is an additional $150.00 cleanup fee for smoking in this condo.
