It was very relaxing watching the waves on the deck. It was wonderful to be able to bring our dog on the beach, as well as being able to let her be on the deck with it being fenced in. The house was spacious and beautiful!
We stayed here as a family of 3. We obviously did not need all the space but a majority of beach access homes on Dauphin Island are quite large. We chose this home because it was more affordable for a single family but still all the great amenities you can ask for on the beach.
Absolutely loved it! Stayed with my Mom and two toddlers. Just a few steps from the porch to the ocean. Home was stunning, bedrooms, bathrooms and living spaces so comfortable. Very family friendly. We will be back soon!
Location to the beach is perfect, and the house is nice. This is our second visit to this house, and this time the washer was finicky, dryer didn't heat well, and dishwasher didn't clean. Inconveniences, but overall enjoyed our stay. Thanks!

Hi Michael, thank you for your review. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced during your stay, as well as any personal touch you found lacking. Moving forward, our local staff has taken immediate action and addressed your concerns so that we can prevent any further issues in the future. Thank you again for this valuable information as we always welcome the opportunity to improve. We understand how disappointing it was that the home was in this condition upon your arrival. Please
know we strive to provide every guest with a relaxing stay. We hope to have another chance to impress you on a future stay.
Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay. House is great! Super clean, everything as advertised. It had everything we needed. Constructive suggestions:
-please check and secure the railing on stairs and porches. My 80 yr old mother had a tough time with the stairs because lift was not available to use. If someone has children they could possibly push to hard and fall. Just normal maintenance. Other than that, everything was great!!!! Thank you!!

Was alright
Was a nice house with a good layout. Nice short walk to the beach which is the reason for going but could use some maintenance. There are a few lights burnt out and some flickering, the motion sensor light flickers like a strobe light. The dishwasher leaks sometimes out of the lower left corner. The pics of the house are misleading which is disheartening when you first pull up and its not what you expect, it doesn't show there is a huge two story house blocking the view of the beach. Could use trash cans in bathrooms.The washer and dryer do not function properly. And there where some roaches around the house. Probably needs sprayed.The ac struggled to keep up never shut off.

The beach and the views from the house were perfect. It was easy to get to the beach. My biggest complaint of the house was that it was not as well stocked as we expected. It was very disorganized. The fridge had shelf’s missing in the door. We had to call because there was no skillet. There was also no vacuum cleaner. The bathroom was not well stocked with towels. On our last day we find a bunch of towels in the dryer?!?!? The beach towels that we were promised were in the dryer! There were at least 15 towels in the dryer. No one told us they were there. We just made do with what we had. There was no kitchen towel!!! We had to go buy one. There were no trash bags provided in the kitchen. There was an electric griddle but there wasn’t a power cord. Other than these things, we enjoyed our stay. Everything worked. We would definitely return as long as these issues were addressed!!! We appreciate being able to bring our two dogs. They had a blast! On the whole it was a wonderful place. Very comfortable. All though there were only two of us this trip there was plenty of room. It was very spacious. We would consider bringing others with us!!!! Thanks for your hospitality!! We love Dauphin Island. This won’t be our last visit!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beach, the views, and that the home felt spacious and comfortable. We apologize for the issues with kitchen supplies, towels, and the dryer—these were impacted by a temporary power outage. We’ll be inspecting the dryer and restocking kitchen and bathroom items, including fridge drawers, skillet, kitchen towels, and trash bags, to ensure future stays are fully prepared. We appreciate your input and look forward to welcoming you back to Dauphin Island for another wonderful visit.
The house was lovely, with room for everyone in or family. All appliances were in good working order and there was plenty of hot water for showers.
