The house was everything they described. Right on the water with amazing views. Host was easy to communicate with and even helped with adjusting our trip days. Check in was easy and the house was very clean. Beds were extremely comfortable, kitchen very well stocked with even extras like air fryer and crock pots. They made cleaning supplies such as broom and vacuum easily accessible to help with all the sand. You can hear the waves crashes right outside the bedroom. It made our trip relaxing knowing we had a great place to stay. Check out was super easy as well and nothing too extensive needed to be done before we left.

We take pride in keeping our home clean and well-stocked, so we’re glad you found everything you needed in the kitchen, including those handy extras. Hearing the waves right outside your bedroom sounds like the perfect way to unwind, and we’re delighted that you felt relaxed during your time with us. We appreciate your kind words about the check-out process too. We strive to make everything as hassle-free as possible. We would love to welcome you back for another stay whenever you’re ready!

The home was way more spacious than we expected. The huge balcony on the surf side with all the patio furniture was big bonus. While being pet friendly, which was a must for us, there was no indications that pets had stayed before us. So don't let that deter you even if you don't have pets. Well cleaned and would recommend and stay again. Biggest piece of advice is to bring a beach wagon for your stuff as the bottom of the stairs is a 20 foot walk through sand.

Was not able to access property because the keypad didn’t work. Vrbo support could not reach the property host, and I am not kidding we had to drive back home. But that was after staying in a nearby shady motel for the night, because Vrbo didn’t offer any accommodations. And it gets better, no refund!! I am pissed!! They know we didn’t stay there and like criminals still kept my money

Great vacation!

Great location away from the crowds. Right on the gulf with beach on each side of the house. We rented an in-shore charter boat (the Duke) from the Marina and it was such a great experience. Saw dolphins, caught some fish and had a blast! Highly recommend for a family get away!

First time Islanders

Absolutely amazing place! Midwest Family with 4 kids enjoyed the property. Pictures do not do this place justice, it is truly one of the best places we have ever stayed. Lots of shells, uncrowded beachfront, dolphin watching from the deck had it all. Will always try to get this place when coming back to Dauphin Island.

This was our first visit to the island. What a great place right on top of the water. Very clean and perfectly decorated. The sounds of the ocean put us to sleep each night. We will be back over the summer.
