Gulf Side-Walk to the beach, great views, pet-friendly - Boa Vista
Welcome to Boa Vista, your perfectly located beach retreat on Dauphin Island. Meaning "Great View," Boa Vista invites you to relax, recharge, and reconnect—with the Gulf just a 3-minute walk from your back stairs. This coastal cottage blends comfort and charm with a location that’s hard to beat. Whether you’re here for a family getaway, a quiet couples’ escape, or a memory-making trip with friends, Boa Vista delivers a true island experience.
Inside, the home features a fresh, open layout with light-filled rooms and beachy finishes throughout. The kitchen is fully equipped for home-cooked meals, and the living area is designed for movie nights, card games, and easy conversation. A spacious dining area and cozy seating make it just as easy to gather as it is to spread out and relax.
🛏️ Sleeping Arrangements – Sleeps up to 8
• Primary Bedroom – King bed with private ensuite bathroom
• Guest Bedroom – Queen bed
• Bunk Room – Two sets of twin-over-twin bunk beds (sleeps 4)
Step outside and you’ll see why Boa Vista earned its name. The large back deck offers space to lounge, dine, or simply breathe in the salt air. An outdoor shower with hot and cold water makes rinsing off after the beach quick and easy. And best of all, your private beach path starts right at the bottom of your deck stairs—taking you to the gulf-facing beaches in just a minute. No need to load up the car—just grab your towel and go.
