One of the nicest vacation rentals our family has ever stayed at (and we stay at a lot). Great location, everything updated and clean and nice, amazing kitchen - one of the most well-stocked I've ever seen, they have everything. Nice sized bedrooms. The shaded patio though is where we spent most of our time when not on the beach. So nice to have so much seating and a dining table. We will be back!!

Absolutely Perfect

Beautiful home stocked with everything you need for a Dauphin Island beach vacation. The back deck is amazing. Perfect with toddlers as there are gates on the back porch as well. Only a brief walk to the beach. Truly a great floor plan for the family. Can't wait to come back next summer

Amazing house and location!

This property is beautiful! From the moment we drove up and had to unlock the gates to enjoying the view and easy walk to the beach, we loved every minute. The location and beach access is great. The house has just about everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable. We had no problems with anything. I highly recommend this property for your upscale stay at Dauphin Island!

Best 4-bed property on the island!

We had a wonderful week on Dauphin Island and this property is likely the best 4 bed/4 bath with a POOL anywhere in the area (we've stayed in Gulf Shores in the past). The house was beautiful, included everything you could need, it was clean, and downright amazing! Best location on the beach, unbelievable views, dolphins swam by almost every day, and the pool option was so great! If/when we return to Dauphin Island, we will not hesitate to stay at this property again. No need to look any further! Thanks so much for a wonderful week! It would be a dream to own this house! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Excellent Property!

This home has everything you will need for an awesome beach vacation. Property is well maintained and the kitchen is well stocked. It's just a short walk to the secluded beach where you can sit in the sun all day. We were unlucky in that it rained all but two days of our stay but we would definitely stay at this property again!

Beautiful

This home is stunning. The photos do not do it justice. We stayed the 2nd week of May 2022. Unfortunately, there was a lot of seaweed washed up in the surf. Like, a lot. We didn’t get in the ocean at all the entire week. However, with the amazing views, white sands, a wonderful deck, beautiful house, pool, and dunes, I definitely don’t feel like I missed out on anything. We had a multigenerational vacay. 2 grandmas, 3 adults, a teen a kid and an infant. So much space for everyone. This was the best supplied beach house we have ever rented. I always come prepared and barely needed any of my own items. My husband noted, the island itself is secluded. We really enjoyed this aspect. Not really a bunch of tourist stuff everywhere. Couple of notes on my end; for the places you want to try, check their hours on FB/websites first. Kind of made it fun bc most places were only open a few hours at a time on certain days of the week. So we knew when we were going to check out Lighthouse Bakery, Miguel’s Baja, and Island Rainbow. We ordered wings from Pirate Pizza when we came in on Saturday night, not a lot open (they were great). Also the best and closest as far as an actual grocery store, is Greers. They have everything, about 20 mins from the house. We were prepared to drive to Mobile when we stopped here first. The property management made everything smooth with key pick up and drop off, we didn’t need them for anything else the entire week. Highly recommend this place

Dream Beach Home

There aren't words to fully express the awesomeness of this property. Bring everything you need to stay a week because you won't want to leave for anything. The beach was steps away and the VIEW!!!! WOW!!! The deck and heated pool were perfect for enjoying the ocean view when not in the mood for the sand and cool weather of spring. The home's square footage was maximized. Each bedroom has an ensuite offering privacy and plenty of space. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and bake. The laundry room had an extra refrigerator and huge washer and dryer to keep towels fresh. This house was immaculate. Kudos to the housekeeping. I have never stayed in a rental that did not have some level of ick factor. This house was super clean. There wasn't even sand on the floors which is highly unusual for a beach rental. I can not say enough good things about this home. I read the reviews when we booked the home. I was skeptical that a rental could have so many good reviews and none that were bad. Playa Larga lives up to the hype!
