Overall Comment
Sea Chalet was a great house for our family of 5 (3 teenagers). Close proximity to the beach. The golf cart was great to have! The bikes were too-our girls rode to the beach several times. Pools, fitness center and tennis courts were nice. We really appreciated the well supplied garage of beach chairs, boogie boards, umbrella, etc! Grilled dinner twice on the very clean grill, which is usually not likely in a rental.
A few cons: queen bedroom downstairs needs a dresser and mattress was very uncomfortable. A few more stocked items would have been nice. There was NO kitchen hand or dish soap. Only one dishwasher pod. Only one trash bag. At least salt and pepper could be provided.
Overall a great stay though! Would recommend Martinique for sure!

Overall Comment
Sea Chalet was a great homebase for our vacation. Loved the location within Martinique. Everything was clean and plenty of space for 5 people. Cons: due to the narrow driveway and landscaping, we had to move our car every time we wanted to use the golf cart. Also, the home smelled very musty and we had to wash all of our clothes and air everything out once we returned home due to the smell.

This was our second stay at Martinique on the Gulf. It’s a wonderful family friendly beach getaway! The resort itself is beautiful with beach homes, cottages, and condos spread throughout the property. The condos are beachfront which give a nice view of the water and a close walk to the beach. Our first stay years ago was the condos. It was a great fit for our family at the time with 3 small children. However, we loved staying in the Sea Chalet this stay because it gave our family a bit more room to spread out. This trip our little ones had grown into 2 college kids and one high schooler. They had plenty of room to spread out and they loved the golf cart to get us back and forth to the beach and the pools as well. Everything was clean and well maintained. The grounds of the resort are full of beautiful flowers, palms, and even ponds with frogs croaking loudly in the moonlight. The beaches are pristine and not at all crowded at the time we stayed. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful at the resort. Alicia in the office in particular was super helpful to us as we drove in from Texas and had a delayed departure waiting for family to come in. Because we had an unintended late start we would not make it in time to drop our dogs at the boarding facility in Gulf Shores. I called and she went the extra mile to help us find a solution.
We will definitely be coming back to one of our favorite spots to relax and spend time with family!

Our experience was wonderful. Beautiful location and the facilities were great. Just what we were looking for. Quiet side of the island, close to the beach and with pools and hot tub. The location was convenient to the Bon Secour National Wildlife hiking trails - where we saw lots of turtles, an alligator, and nesting ospreys. We took day trips to the Foley farmers market, toured the Mobile Bay area, a trip to the Legacy Museum in Montgomery, and a Ferry trip to Dauphin Island where we walked along the Audubon trails and drove up to Bellingrath gardens. We cooked in most evenings and enjoyed fresh seafood everyday. The Sea Chalet was a delight - plenty of room for five sisters. With five of us staying a week it would have been nice to have more than one roll of T. paper in each of the 3 bathrooms and an extra kitchen garbage bag. But the dollar store was a minute away to pick up the extras. We called maintenance one morning for a clogged garbage deposal (our fault) and a person came by within minutes to fix it. Overall - 5 stars!

The villa was lovely and everything was great. There is a serious problem with frogs. I was there 4 years ago in another villa during this time and it happened again. This is very bad for sleeping. My sister ended up on the living couch a couple of nights to get out f the back bedroom.

My 3rd trip to Gulf Shores and my 3rd stay at Martinique on the Gulf. My family, friends, and I have always loved the homes we've stayed in, and really love the community. Martinique is a great locations, off the main strip, yet close to good restaurants, numerous activities, the zoo, and Fort Morgan. We did parasailing from the Club Resort just a few miles down the road, enjoyed Bushwackers (adult milkshake) at Tacky Jack's 2, seafood a Behind the Pines, rented bicycles at Tiki's for a ride through the state park, and visited the zoo at it's new location. Martinique has 2 swimming pools and a great beach. The rental homes have golf carts for getting around the community, and we used the propane grill almost every night. There are several hiking trails nearby. The homes are very beautiful and clean, with very reasonable pricing. I'm sure I'll be back for a 4th visit in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sea Chalet and Martinique. The accommodations were as pictured, or better. Very clean. The house was well equipped and plenty of space for six of us. The beds were comfortable and perfect for our group with adults and young adults. We liked the natural setting of the resort and having the golf cart to get around and haul ‘stuff’ was perfect. The only, very small, thing was the stove top did not work so good. It took a long time to get a kettle of water to boil. An inconvenience yes, but not enough to lower our rating.
We liked the location. Close to every thing but far enough way for a peaceful stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Martinique on the Gulf is a well-planned and well-run resort creating privacy, quiet, and natural beauty. Teen-age grands loved bikes, golf cart, pool close to us, uncrowded beach, star-gazing on beach at night, hiking in Bon Secour. Parents loved that kids had plenty to amuse themselves by themselves. Sea Chalet was clean, well-decorated and furnished, and had a delightful private screen porch on the back. We plan to go back.

We have wintered in Sea Chalet for three winters and have thoroughly enjoyed everyday of our stays. The owners have been wonderful with welcoming gifts up our arrival. The property was exactly as advertised. The Martinique family provided us with opportunities to sun, golf, surf fish, swim and enjoy each others company, I would recommend it to anyone in search of winter warmth and hospitality.

My younger 2 children and their families stayed in Sea Chalet. I was very impressed with the state of the facility. It was very clean, crisp, and well supplied. The furniture was a very good quality, not worn, and the only problem was an outlet in the Master bath that blew a hairdryer. The golf cart was much better than ours next door.

Martinique on the Gulf is a great family oriented 's off the beaten path but it's worth it! The staff is friendly/helpful and our check in/check out was quick and easy. My family and I were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Sea Chalet;to be honest I had my doubts about renting a property that is pet friendly. The house was clean and there wasn't a pet smell; however, the refrigerator was a bit stinky;We contacted the friendly staff and they rectified the situation. The house offered wonderful amenities such as the fully equipped kitchen and the golf cart which made getting to the beach or cruising around the property a breeze! We enjoyed it so much that we're planning to stay again! We had a wonderful time!

Beautiful house, clean, comfortable. Excellent for our grandchildren as it is close enough to one of the pools for even the small ones to walk. Even more fun for them to ride the golf cart with Gramma & Grampa to go to the other pool and beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
