Relaxing Getaway
The accommodations were great for three adult couples plus a single. The 3 Master Bedrooms each have a king bed and their own bathroom. In fact all 5 rooms have their own bathroom. The heated pool was a hit and this is where we spent our afternoons. In the evenings, we watched the beautiful sunsets from the beach, just steps away from the house. October was a great time to be there. The weather was great and there were no crowds.
I would recommend this house.

There were problems with the cable TV and the water in the pool. The cable was not fixed, the pool water was corrected after 3 days.
The oven had not been cleaned in at least a year

The house is absolutely spectacular. But more importantly, the management company bends over backwards to make sure you have the best time at Dauphin Island. We loved everything about it. We could be on our own or we could be a family. Some stayed inside and read and watched TV, others went to the beach, which was only a few steps away, and others spent the day in the swimming pool. I highly recommend not only this house, but especially the management company. They are beyond belief efficient, personable, and just all around great people to deal with. We have already booked for next year and can hardly wait.

Loved this home! The layout was perfect for our three families. Step down onto the gulf beach, enjoyed the gulf views and sounds from the spacious deck. The pool was nice as an option also. Would only suggest a larger refrigerator.

Stay on the sand
This home was everything we expected and more! First, it was so clean, especially for a dog friendly property. It accommodated our large group so well, we loved the huge table for dinners and games and there was plenty of room for everyone. The location was quiet and the beach was practically private as you were on the West End of the island. We loved the bike lane outside and easy access to the beach. The pool was a huge hit for our kids and was shaded in the afternoons so it provided a good break from beach time. We would absolutely rent this property again!

Dauphin Island Stay
Spent a week here 6/18-6/25/2022 and it was an amazing stay. The week was extremely hot; average temps upper 90s and the A/C worked great!! The close proximity to the beach of 100
Yards was awesome and it felt like a private beach with little traffic. The views of both the beach and the bay was fantastic. The deck pool was an added plus for afternoon and evening dipping. The spacious deck was awesome. With 10 people in our group, the 5 BRs provided enough space for all. The openness of the floor plan was ideal for gathering, eating and playing games. Our group was prepared for nightly cooking as the island has very limited restaurant options. This was ok with us. We did venture to Mobile (40 min drive) for dinner one night to Wintzell’s Oyster House (a must do!!) and the food was amazing. As for property Mgt we had one need after hours and they were very responsive; thanks. All in all a great week and we will return. Some minor suggestions: we rented a deck umbrella as it was needed at the pool or deck. With the price of this rental; owners should invest in some deck umbrellas for shade. Also the kitchen area was great and for the most part kitchen cookware was adequate. Suggest some bigger pots and pans for larger group cooking and also in need of Tupperware to store leftovers in fridge. None of these are deal breakers but would add to a great property. Thanks for sharing your home. Awesome!!

Great get away, great house and location
Dauphin Island is like going back in time to a simpler beachfront with sea shells washing ashore. The house is beautifully laid out and decorated. The pool could be warmer for winter months, but the deck is a great place to hear the waves and watch the sunset. Kitchen is furnished well, and living area is comfortable and roomy.

Absolutely Perfect
We loved this place. They had towels for us to take home as a gift that were super cute. As well as providing towels for us to use while we were there. The washing machine did mess up like our second day. The guy was out the same day to look at it. They had to order a part, he offered to take all of our clothes to the laundry mat on the main land on their expense. Luckily the part came in quickly, he came with fancy donuts and fixed it super quickly. The location was perfect, super close to the ocean. We were at the water everyday! We also visited right after the hurricane so it was awesome to sea the ocean change every day. We couldn't enjoy West End Beach but we did go down and get lots of shells. Overall, we would definitely stay again! Thank you so much for having us ❤

House is pretty and beds were comfortable. We were extremely disappointed in the heated pool.
We really could only get in the pool two days out of the 7 we stayed. The sand is awful! We have stayed at different beaches for 50 years and never found the sand to be that bad!!Dave was very attentive.
