Hurricane Sally

Hurricane Sally
Caribe resort failed their guests and residents. I understand a hurricane is a difficult event to deal with, but the management of Caribe did nothing to assist during or after the storm.
This is the most serious issue. Each building is equipped with a massive diesel powered generator, that I thought were specifically designed for an event like this. The generator in D building never turned on once power went out around 2 or 3 am. We decided to leave Wednesday afternoon at 12:30. The elevators weren't working, which was expected, bu the stairwells were completely dark. There was not one emergency light on in the entire building to guide us as we carried luggage down to the garage from the 5th floor. The most concerning thing was watching children go down the stairs loaded with luggage from many floors above us. Caribe has 12 floors. This was dangerous not only because it was dark but there was also minor flooding in the building. You couldn't see the water.
There was plenty of time to check the generator before the storm arrived. It's main purpose is to offer emergency lighting in this situation. Shame on the owners and management for not being assured the generator would work.
We loved Caribe but will never stay there again. Lack of concern for the safety of residents and guests is obviously unacceptable.

Great weekend getaway
Condo was a great place for the family to stay. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. Master bedroom was a little warm while sleeping but we bought a fan and all was good. The jet tub in the master didn't run so that was a small disappointment.

Our first visit to Orange Beach, but have traveled to other locations quite often. This condo was probably the nicest we've stayed in, for sure the largest. The pools are incredible and overall and a wonderful time. We will be back soon

Property was great except our room was on the 5th floor and the outdoor patio doors Locks were broken on both doors. With 2 active kids that was very nerve racking at night causing us to barricaded the doors as best we could.
Pools were nice , views were excellent, and overall impressions is that we would return... even to the same room if the locks get fixed.
Great place to stay.

Great place to stay.
We enjoyed our stay here. The condo was great. We found an issue where we thought there may be a leak in the bathroom and the owner was quick to respond and get Maintenance up to check on it. (Leak ended up being in a neighboring condo) My only complaint and why I rated this 4 stars and not five was because the master bedroom stays much hotter than the rest of the condo. Even with the curtains shut all day and night every room in there was nice and cool except the master bedroom. I would suggest a travel fan of you like to sleep cold at night. Also the mattress on the sofa bed needs extra padding if you plan to use it. We love caribe resort. Very good place for kids.

We had a great trip. The weather was cool and windy and were unable to us the outside amenities but there was so much to do indoors, no one seemed to mind. We did get to play at the play ground.

Amazing!!
I cant Say enough good things not just about the beautiful unit itself, but all of Caribe. The grounds are immaculate. The condo was stunning! The view is so gorgeous, the unit is clean with really nice appliances, an awesome shower and a super comfy bed. Parking was also so convient. It was nice having an assigned spot and it's not at all a pain to get to. We enjoyed our stay so much and can't wait to stay in the same unit again!

great location and view.
My family and I had a great stay at this location. The view from the balcony is wonderful. You can see the bay, the gulf and ono island very clearly. We even saw a dolphin in the late evening and early morning. The view of the sun rise is breathtaking. A few minor things were the only reason this wasn't a 5 star review (mostly plumbing that are easily fixed). I highly recommend vrclubonline and this site for a wonderful stay.

The kids really enjoyed the pools, mini golf and bocce ball! The view from the deck is wonderful! We watched the dolphins from there. Really nice to have the sunshine come in the rooms in the morning to wake you! Enjoyed walking to beach every day of our stay!

We loved the condo!!! However, there were a few things we disliked. The master bedroom was stayed warm. Especially once the sun started to rise. Sun beat right on balcony. Would have just turned up the fan but the fan could not be set on high and only low. One speed. The dryer took a few full cycles to fully dry our towels. Also, we loved everything the Caribe had to offer, but the trolley that takes you to and from the beach took a long time to pick up. More trolleys running would be nice. Once we made it to the beach, it was still a long walk to get to the actual beach. Not convient at all. If you want to hang by the pool, then the Caribe is perfect for you. The pools are AMAZING, but very cold in the evening and night. Lastly, the deli by the pool is the only place you can get food unless you take the trolley to the Cobalt restaurant. The deli closes at 6:00. So no food or mixed drinks after that. By the time we got back from the beach each day, and we’re actually hungry, it was always closed. On a positive note, this unit is close to the bay and we walked down to the bay shore to play since the beach was so far away. The kids loved it. We saw tons of hermit crabs. We also saw shrimp, fish, blue crabs and sand crabs. We could also see the bay and gf from the unit. The bay view was stunning and close.

We always love staying at the Caribe. The condo was neat and clean. The decor was beautiful. The beds and furniture were comfortable. They provided plenty of towels. The view from the balcony was spectacular. The balcony furniture was comfortable which made for a nice time with my family watching the pelicans, boats, and helicopter. We enjoyed watching it land and take off. Our stay was perfect!

The condo was a great property with all that we needed plus some! The resort could use a little updating and some more cleaning staff in the common areas, especially the pools.
