This review is only for Bella Beach Properties and not for the unit we stayed in. The unit, Sugar…read moreBeach 153, was not well maintained or in a great spot in the complex. Unfortunately it was located exactly above the garbage dumpsters which were emptied six days a week between 4 am and 7 am, which meant that sleeping late was not an option. Bella was very accomodating with our situation, even trying to find us alternate units which unfortunately were not suitable or cost more. In the end, we stayed and they refunded us a portion of our cost. I would recommend Bella. I would not recommend Sugar Beach 153.

TERRIBLE COMPANY!!!! DO NOT USE Phoenix V Orange Beach # 812…read more We were notified only a few days before our trip that the pool would be closed for maintenance. When I asked about the splash pad, I was told they had not mentioned any closure, and assumed it would still be open. However, upon arrival, we discovered that both the pool and splash pad were unavailable due to a major renovation project. This clearly was not an emergency repair, and guests should have been informed much earlier or given the option to cancel without penalty. We traveled with three young children, and the pool and splash pad were major factors in choosing this property. The only compensation offered was a 10% discount on the nightly condo rate, which did not adequately address the inconvenience. Unfortunately, the condition of the condo itself was also very disappointing. The unit was in serious need of a deep cleaning and furniture updates. Issues we encountered included: 1. Two recliners that were broken, worn, and dirty 2. A couch that was worn and stained 3. Dining room chairs with peeling faux leather and visible dirt 4. An ice maker that produced only a small amount of ice over four days 5. A foul odor coming from the kitchen sink, likely from the garbage disposal 6. Dishes and cookware that were not properly cleaned, with dried food still on pots and pans 7. A master bathroom sink that drained very slowly 8. An outdated master bathroom with a shower head positioned so low that adults had to squat to wash their hair 9. Balcony furniture covered in dirt and dust 10. Curtains that dragged across the floor and were filthy at the bottom 11. Floors and rugs that were too dirty to allow our crawling baby to play safely Because we were traveling with a baby in the crawling stage, cleanliness was especially important. Thankfully, we brought a play mat, but keeping our baby confined to it throughout the trip was difficult and frustrating. I contacted customer service at Prickett Properties during our stay. The representative was courteous and documented all of our concerns, stating they would be passed along to management. Unfortunately, I never received any follow-up. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this condo. The photos do not accurately reflect the unit's current condition, and the lack of communication about the amenities was very disappointing.

HORRIBLE COMPANY! We booked 403W at The Four Seasons at Romar Beach for 22 nights. Upon arrival the…read moreunit was infested with roaches. We contacted Prickett Properties who put us in a temporary property, The Palms, for 3 nights while they exterminated. The temporary property was smaller, outdated and dirty. When we returned to 403W we were met with another round of roach attacks! Several varieties and sizes confirming our suspicion of an infestation! We immediately left and checked into a hotel close by. Our 22 day vacation was reduced to 5 harrowing days. Prickett Properties blamed EVERYONE for the issue....the HOA, the owner, even us! They won't refund all our monies paid claiming we have to pay them for 3 nights at The Palms! Prickett Properties has NO idea what customer service is. They are terrible to their customers. BEWARE OF PRICKETT PROPERTIES. STAY AWAY

our stay at the Turquoise Place was amazing!! The condo was so lovely, definitely the nicest place…read morethat we have ever stayed! We loved the hot tub out on the balcony. two of the bathrooms had jacuzzi tubs and walk-in showers. It had a outside where you could order drinks and food a lazy river that was so much fun and relaxing, and a huge slide for the kids to slide into the pool. The only problem that we had was when we checked in, it took too long and it was very embarrassing, because I paid for the room for a week in advance like I was supposed to. I got from Getaways that everything was set up and everything was ready but when we were checking in, Getaways did not have us set up with turquoise place, they had to go and make a lot of phone calls to find us where we had paid and we're supposed to be there and you know people are standing there checking in and looking at you like what did you do? are you not supposed to be here, so to stay in a room for five nights it was over $5000 and I walk in there and checked in like a normal person because I went through Getaways Beach Getaways whatever their name is so it will probably be the last time that we go through been going through them every year, but this will probably be the last.

Upon arrival we loved how close the property was to the beach but immediately noticed broken items like a broken cabinet frame, flooring pieces that were no longer glued down, fridge handles were extremely loose etc. We also noticed a small splatter of something on our bathroom wall that resembled blood. I immediately called the office and they asked that I email pictures. I sent the pictures immediately and they responded stating they would have maintenance and cleaning crew come out. I thanked her and assumed things would be fixed soon. A cleaning guy came over the following day and sprayed enzyme cleaner on the bathroom wall. We expected the maintenance person to come out that day as well but they never did. Communication day 1 was great but after that they went silent. The things that I reported broken were never fixed. We made sure that everyone walked carefully in the dinning room area where the wood panels were loose to avoid any accidents. I did receive an automated text from the company the day before check out with check out instructions and a second text immediately aftet checking in on how things were going, I responded letting them know that no one came out the prior day to fix anything and got no response.This is our 1st time staying with beachball properties and most likely our last due to the lack of response and effort on their end. The property needs updating before allowing anyone else to stay in that home. It was 13 people in our group and all of our first time in Gulf Shores so we tried to make the best of it and stay out sight seeing and at the beach. I really wish someone would've came out to fix or atleast check the things I sent pictures of. We paid alot of money to stay there and expected a higher standard from the company. A quote from their website......"Additionally, our dedicated maintenance team is available 24/7 to promptly address any needs that may arise during your stay." If this was true my review would have been WAY different, praising your team for taking care of things quickly.

Sent: Thursday, January 2nd, 2025…read more "Mrs. Kahalley, My name is [REDACTED]. I have a deposit securing your rental property at [REDACTED]. I applied and was approved, and I am looking to move in sometime in February, signing a lease this month. I have been working with your staff, particularly Beth Rudat, and I have some concerns regarding professionalism and lack of courtesy. Admittedly, I have been eager to secure this property from out of state as I am under a time constraint. Still, text message responses are being delayed intentionally, or messages or answers to questions are now entirely ignored by Beth. At first, I gave Shamrock the benefit of the doubt, but I did catch what Beth said when I asked her if I had annoyed her by texting too eagerly when she called with the news of my approval. She told your staff that someone had mentioned, "Someone should take my phone away." I thought that was a joke until Beth began ignoring my messages and not answering some of my questions altogether. My more significant concern came after I researched online reviews for Shamrock Rentals and found deeply concerning 1-star reviews from previous tenants about your staff's lack of professionalism and courtesy. Some of the staff at Shamrock Rentals treat the property owners very well but have a history of mistreating the tenants. Is this something I should be concerned about when working with you? I don't want any issues. I am giving you over 1/3 of my income to be a responsible tenant and care for your property, but I don't want my concerns ignored or to be disrespected. Other reviews say that the properties were not cleaned and had damage prior to move-in. Beth is fully aware that I cannot walk this property before signing the lease due to a recent surgery and being out of state on a time constraint. I am trusting you to have this home in order for my arrival. When I asked Beth if there would be a fresh coat of paint, something not uncommon for tenants to request, she shunned my inquiry entirely and wasn't even willing to speak professionally about it. I hope Shamrock is going to be fair and treat tenants better than what I am seeing so far. What I am witnessing lines up with what the online reviews say specifically about a lack of professionalism and courtesy, and it worries me. Please take the time to address my concerns, and if you are okay with it, have Lauren reach out to me to finalize the paperwork. I seem to have annoyed Beth, and she has chosen to be uncooperative with me. Respectfully, [REDACTED] P.S. Here in Kentucky and my home state of Colorado, we often hear famously about "Southern Hospitality." You are my first encounter with the deep south of Alabama, welcoming me to my first-ever rental house in what might be my new permanent state. I sincerely hope that Southern Hospitality is all we've believed it to be." {RESPONSE} Recieved: Friday, January 3rd, 2025 "Hi [REDACTED], Thank you for your email and for expressing your concerns. After careful consideration, I have decided that proceeding with the rental agreement through Shamrock Properties would not be beneficial for either of us. I foresee potential difficulties in the future with you as a tenant and I feel you will also have the same difficulties when dealing with our company. I have refunded both your security deposit and application fee ($1,750) to your USAA checking account. Funds will be in your account in the next 3-5 days. I wish you the best with your move and future endeavors. Aiveen Kahalley"

We rented a house with them and are very disappointed with the lack of professionalism of Shamrock…read moreProperties. Perhaps the name is not Irish and "sham" should have tipped us off. Between the two of us, my husband and I have separately and together signed 13 leases, renting from personal landlords and companies like Shamrock. Not once -- without exaggeration! -- has even one cent been deducted from our deposit. Not once! We have always had excellent relationships with landlords and received our full security deposits. When we moved out of the Shamrock property, the house was significantly cleaner than when we moved in. When we moved in, the house was dirty -- a terrible smoke smell in the carpets, torn floors, paint chipped off, very dirty oven and stove, and 100s of cigarette butts in the backyard. We cannot live like that. Shamrock took care of some and we took care of the rest. (I should add here that we're also home owners and that we would not trust them to rent our home in our absence -- they swore up and down that the house including the carpets had been cleaned, and the latter was clearly not the case. If I were the owner, I would worry about their care for my home and also the accuracy of any charges.) At the end of the lease, Shamrock took almost a month to return the deposit. Imagine our surprise when we finally received the check and it turned out they had deducted 1/3 of the security deposit. Truly impressive what they managed to 'find': a few spots above the stove (which were there before, and the stove itself was spotless, which wasn't the case when we moved in), paint touch-ups ($300), etc etc. Again; this is an entirely new experience for us. We had never received anything but the full security deposit. I understand that the owners of Shamrock may think this is a good short-term strategy, since it pads their bottom line, but we paid above market rate and are likely to be back, and we will make sure to stay clear of Shamrock and tell others about our experience.

We arrived to find: * Leaking ceiling * Non-functioning toilet * Broken furniture, including recliners that collapsed when used * Rusted patio furniture * Mold in the freezer (replaced with a tiny countertop freezer that could hold barely a cup) * Stove with no knob markings, making it unsafe * Extremely limited hot water -- not enough for more than one short shower * Windows so weathered you couldn't even see through them Aronov also violated ADA law by questioning my disability when I brought my service dog. Even worse, they entered the unit without my consent. When I reported these issues to Vrbo, Aronov lied about the condition of the condo, made false accusations about my stay, and Vrbo altered my review to hide the truth. This company clearly values protecting itself over guest safety, comfort, and legal compliance. If you value honesty, cleanliness, and your rights, do not book Unit 103W or any property managed by Aronov Condo Management.
