A Note From Young’s Suncoast

At Young’s Suncoast we understand you may have concerns about traveling or continuing with your trip to Gulf Shores & Orange Beach. We are working hard to adjust and modify our policies as information becomes available from local, state, and federal health officials.

Young’s Suncoast has weathered many crises during its years of business, from years of back-to-back storms to the BP Oil Spill – but this particular challenge is unique and changing rapidly. We are doing our best to remain flexible and adjust, as needed, for the good of our guests, partners, owners, vendors, employees and our community.

The safety of everyone is our priority. We would like to inform you of recent changes to our area due to Coronavirus (COVID-19).

*Please be patient with us as we work through a very high call volume and the numerous emails we are receiving from guests regarding their existing reservations. We are working hard to address and serve each of you in these unprecedented times.

Young’s Suncoast Cancellation Policy Update

In light of these new developments and area restrictions, and following the guidance of our local city officials, we are amending our cancellation policy.

  • We will continue to offer guests the opportunity to take a credit of monies paid to put toward a new reservation in the same property at a later date by issuing a Future Stay Credit Voucher.
  • Effective immediately, any existing reservation with an arrival between now and April 17th can cancel and receive a full refund.
  • Guests who want to make future reservations for later in 2020, we will be offering a COVID-19 100% Worry-Free Booking Policy.
    • As long as the country is still under a National State of Emergency concerning the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak, a guest can make a new reservation for arrival any time in 2020 with a guaranteed 100% refund if their plans are disrupted due to Coronavirus (COVID-19).

Young’s Suncoast Business Changes

Due to the recent order mandated by Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey and the Alabama Dept. of Public Health, we have closed both our Wharf office and our main office on Highway 59 to all walk-in traffic until further notice and have shifted our guest service to phones and email.

Due to our limited staffing and to protect our employees and you, our guests, maintenance teams will no longer be going to occupied units unless the issue is critical. We will continue to troubleshoot what we can over the phone.
