"Just visited to play golf so I cannot speak to the resort or accommodations. Played on 12/29 and was easily the most wind I've played in. Staff was very friendly and course was in great shape. Pace of play was great but I'm sure the temp and wind kept some away. Always enjoy playing the course even in the tough conditions. Photos don't really capture the severity of the wind today."

"I didn't stay at the hotel, but played their golf course designed by Mr. Arnold Palmer. The course was amazing. The the clubhouse restaurant served a great breakfast at an excellent price for the amount of food served. The staff was friendly and helpful. The green fees were a little bit pricey for me, but to splurge for a vacation it was worth the price."

"Kiva Dunes Beach Resort is a slice of paradise on the Alabama Gulf Coast. From the moment you arrive, the peaceful atmosphere, pristine beaches, and beautifully maintained grounds make it clear you’re in for something special. The accommodations are spacious, stylish, and thoughtfully appointed—perfect for families, couples, or solo travelers looking to unwind. The private beach access is a dream: soft white sand, gentle waves, and plenty of space to soak up the sun without the crowds. The resort amenities—from the pools and fitness center to the on-site restaurant—are top-notch, and the staff goes above and beyond to make every stay memorable. Whether you’re sipping coffee on a breezy balcony or strolling the shoreline at sunset, Kiva Dunes offers the kind of coastal escape that stays with you long after you leave. Highly recommend for anyone seeking serenity, comfort, and a touch of Southern hospitality."
