We stayed at Young's for many years; our favorite place to stay in Gulf Shores with king suites right on the beach level. Unfortunately, it was not renovated after Ivan, but was torn down and replaced by condos. More

Yes, the hotel may be old, but it definately saved us! We were just driving to gulf shores for a get-away trip and didn't have a clue where we were going to stay!(Which i know was very dumb, but thanks to Young's by the Sea we found somewhere to stay.) We arrived at 3:30 in the morning. We were driving... More

Being honest this place isn't a Hilton but for the price and location, it's worth it completely. Closest hotel to the waterfront. Absolute heaven. Who cares that it's not the newest nicest place in Gulf Shores. But they have the best location and average on accommodations. More

This place was wonderful. Me and my buddies took a road trip to Gulf Shores. All the old farts in the other hotels wouldn't even allow us in. youngs took us under their wing and let us stay. I don't remember much about the hotel, we were hardly in it, but when we were, we were blitzed. They had a... More

Youngs By The Sea is by far the worst hotel to stay in. When we got there we had to wait for our room because they weren't done cleaning it. And when we got in our room, it really wasn't that clean. The room was small, smelly, and dirty. The clerks at the front desk were rude. The service was... More

The staff is well aware that the hotel is old and run down, badly in need of repairs. They do the best they can with what they have to work with. Bear in mind that if a guest is yelling and screaming profanities at a desk clerk ( who has no control over policies or rates or even the status... More

Rooms small as shoe bowes. They stink. Linen dirty. Bathrooms molded. Bugs. We checked in and back out but was still charged to our credit card. Staff was hateful. More

I thought the place was great. I stayed at Young's By the Sea for Spring Break of the year 2004 with 5 of my friends. I am a college student and wasn't looking for the typical party scene just somewhere to go and be relaxed. It was right on the beach, beautiful view, close to resturants, and a heated pool.... More
