Oceania Penthouse P14 was featured on the cover of the Spring 2008 Condo Owner Magazine. Yesterday we had the opportunity to tour the property and it was truly awesome. We could see huge fish and schools of stingrays swimming along the beachfront as we soaked up the visuals of the gulf front condo. Additionally, the view of the lagoon to the North also gave us a soothing experience.
The living room area of the condo faces the sugar white sands of the Gulf Shores beach. This living area is two stories with walls of windows. We arrived about 1:00 PM and as the sun moved to the West a bit of glare was neutralized with the push of a button as sheer blinds lowered themselves leaving a view of the beach and a muted lighting effect in the living area.
We were really blown away though by the home theatre! This theatre seats 16. The thought occured to us that this would make a great recording studio for musicians and songwriters that need to get to a laid back environment to find their creativity.
Another interesting element of the Oceania Penthouse is just how “Wired” it is. Almost everything in the unit can be operated off site via the internet. We won’t delve into all the details as it was really too much to soak up, but for those that are into electronic gadgets there is a huge network room that connects all of these gadgets together.

As the busy summer vacation season begins to wind down with the advent of the new school year, the local real estate market along the Alabama Gulf Coast continues to flourish as a result of great deals. Sellers along the beach have found themselves at the mercy of what buyers are willing to pay in today’s market for a piece of paradise. A large Gulf-front unit in Phoenix 9 recently sold for $700,000, a mere half-million less than its original offer price.
For many beach agents, August has become their most active month to date, with many predicting even greater sales this fall. This surge in sales is the direct result of 35-45% discounts off of seller’s original asking price. The most active price range for condos is 200-400K, with sold price per square foot ranging from $260-$350.
High insurance costs have left some buyers on the fence in terms of pulling the trigger on a second home purchase, while others have turned their attention away from the traditional vacation destinations like Destin, FL due to coastal Alabama’s more competitive prices and lower property taxes.
