About this property

*We have relaxed our cancellation policy. If your travel plans are impacted by COVID-19 restrictions, we are issuing refunds for your vacation prior to your arrival on a case-by-case basis.*

Welcome to The Sea Turtle! Newly constructed (April 2017) Beachfront home on the Gulf of Mexico on beautiful Dauphin Island. Sweeping views of the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi Sound.

2 Oceanfront King Master bedrooms with en suite master baths with large walk-in showers.

The living area features deep, comfortable sofas and a 65” TV with DirectTV Satellite Choice 180+ channel package. There are TVs in every bedroom also. The house has wireless internet - wifi - throughout.

The kitchen is fully stocked with new high end Whirlpool appliances, Keurig & drip coffee makers, crockpot, and more. You will find a full size, high end, commercial grade Maytag Washer and Dryer set in the laundry area. A starter set of paper products and soaps are provided.

As beautiful as the house is, it doesn't compare to what awaits you out the back door. You will spend the majority of your time soaking up the sun outside! The sand is soft and the beach goes on in both directions as far as the eye can see. Spend the day watching boats pass by, see pods of dolphins swimming, interact with heron, pelicans, and other coastal birds fishing on the shore. Splash in the waves and find abundant sea shells. Fishing right on the shore is fun and easy. We have a fish cleaning station under the house for your convenience.

Dauphin Island is quiet and serene. This is a place you come to get away from it all. Rent bikes and explore the island shops and restaurants. Do some fishing. Go swimming. Relax the day away.
The best part - you can unplug and spend time with the ones you love...

Spectacular View

Despite the unseasonably cool weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our January stay. The house was perfect with a well stocked kitchen. We loved sitting on the deck and walking the beautiful sand beach with our dog. We’re from MN, but we hope to be back.

Thanksgiving 2023

I could not have been happier with the Sea Turtle beach house!. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need to cook delicious meals. The layout of the house and all the bedrooms were very spacious and inviting. The beds were all very comfortable and plenty drawer and closet space for all your belongings. Upon arrival, there were no issues gaining entry and the house was immaculate. Nothing to do but relax and enjoy. Highly recommend and we will be back!! Billie R., St. Louis

Great Beachfront Property

This is our 3rd time staying at the Sea Turtle. The house has all the room our party needed. We love the location! House is fully equipped with everything. Dauphin Island is a great place to relax and unwind, especially in November. Plenty of restaurants and sites to visit. The only thing I would ask the owners to consider installing a lift. I'm 61 and it's getting harder to get everything upstairs. Overall, excellent place.

Fabulous Fall Break!

Beautiful house! The house had everything we needed, and the beach in front of the house was perfect. The men caught fish (even a couple sharks)! We watched beautiful sunrises and sunsets as well as watched dolphins each day. We could not have asked for a better week away from home!

Family Vacation

Wonderful vacation!!! Plenty of room for 8 adults and 5 children. Very clean. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sun rise and set on the ocean. The beach was the “back yard” which was great for the grandchildren to go out anytime. We plan to go to this same location again. Everything was great!

About the host

We love to travel! For us, life is all about experiencing new places and making memories with our kids.

Why they chose this property

We are beach and water people. A year is not complete without sand between our toes and jumping in the waves. We have visited a lot of beaches but we are always drawn back to the Gulf. Once we discovered Dauphin Island, we were hooked. This island is a little piece of undeveloped heaven. No crowds, no noise, no commercialism... just families enjoying time and nature together.
