  • Some properties have a 24-hour desk.
Check-in times and locations

Who offers personalized guest services for vacationers in Orange Beach?

Brett/Robinson. Guest service is the stay itself: where you arrive, what you can ask about the unit, what housekeeping covers, and how you leave. It is not a loyalty score. Inventory is on the Orange Beach rentals and Orange Beach condos pages.

Arrival

Phoenix properties use a staffed front desk. Other properties use the Gulf Shores office, with a late key stop at Island Winds East in Gulf Shores. Touchless check-in is on the check-in page for most guests who finish the online steps.

During the stay

You can ask for a specific unit, or for height, bedding, or smoking status, when that request is possible. Condos do not include daily maid service. We operate in-house housekeeping and laundry.

Checkout

Follow the departure steps for the unit you booked. At Phoenix Orange Beach, the stay includes a post-check-out cleaning, and extra cleaning can add a charge. Return metal keys to the front desk.

Where Orange Beach guests check in

Phoenix properties have staffed front desks. Times and locations are on the check-in page. Other properties check in at the Brett/Robinson office, 3259 Gulf Shores Parkway (Highway 59), Gulf Shores. Late arrivals after 6 p.m. for properties other than Phoenix may pick up keys at Island Winds East in Gulf Shores. Island Winds East and Island Winds West have fully staffed front desks. That detail is also on the guest FAQ. Use the confirmation for your reservation. Call 1-800-211-7892 if the location is unclear.

Touchless check-in is available for most guests who complete the online pre-arrival steps, where keyless entry is offered. The primary renter, age 25 or older, must be present with a valid photo ID. Our main rental office is 3259 Gulf Shores Parkway, on the office locations page. There is no separate Orange Beach street address.

Arrival is 3:00, 4:00, or 5:00 p.m. and departure is 10:00 or 11:00 a.m., depending on the date range, with 5:00 p.m. arrival on January 1, February 1, and March 1. Times can vary by property, so your confirmation controls. Early check-ins are not possible because housekeeping needs the unit for the next arrival, and check-out times have no exceptions. Early check-in and late check-out are not guaranteed. Do not plan on either one.

Requests, housekeeping, and local tips

Unit requests

Many guests return to a favorite unit, and a specific condo can be reserved if it is available. Maintenance or a sale can change that. Every effort is made to accommodate height, bedding type, and smoking or non-smoking when possible. Brett/Robinson may have to move the reservation because of an owner request, water damage, construction, or removal of the unit from the rental program. The rental policies list the refund and rate options if no like unit is available.

Housekeeping and laundry

A condo does not include daily maid service, valet, bell service, or room service. We operate our own in-house housekeeping and laundry services and provide fresh linens. We do not publish a price or a way to order a mid-stay clean. Towels and bed linens are provided. Please do not take them to the beach. A starter supply of paper products, soap, and similar items is provided. After those items are used, you supply your own.

Parking passes

The building homeowners association sells parking passes. Purchase or pick up the pass at the Service Desk, or online, depending on the property. Limits vary by building and unit size. On-site parking is not available for RVs, buses, extended vans, or boat trailers. Read the rental policies before you arrive.

Local tips

We offer insider tips on dining, attractions, and hidden gems along the Alabama Gulf Coast. Restaurant names are not listed in this section. Start with things to do and the area guide.

Checkout

At Phoenix Orange Beach, the stay includes a post-check-out cleaning, as described on the Phoenix Orange Beach pre-arrival page: housekeepers strip and remake the beds, vacuum, dust, clean bathrooms, and mop the kitchen floor. Additional cleaning may result in an additional charge. Remove trash, place towels in the bathtub, and follow the checkout instructions or notify the Service Desk of departure so the unit can be prepared for the next guest. Those steps are written for Phoenix Orange Beach. Use the instructions for the unit you booked if you are in a different building.

Return keys to the front desk of the rental location. Lost keys result in a $50 re-key charge. That charge applies to buildings with metal keys. Keys packed in luggage may not be mailed back the next day.
