We really enjoyed the rental property-- the decor was a pleasant beachy vibe, everything worked, the big deck was relaxing and mostly shaded throughout the day.

BEST VRBO I’ve ever had!!

The property was very clean and well put together . The thought behind each aspect of the place made for a great experience! It was close to every beach but allowed for privacy! I would stay here every year!

The condo was OK. It had a nice kitchen well equipped with a good refrigerator. The air conditioner worked well, but there were some appear to be animals up in the attic above the washer dryer closet that made noise the whole time we were there which we did not like. Also, they had plenty of coffee for the Keurig machine and some little snack items which was very nice.

Amazing place to stay!

Never heard of Dauphin Island before this year. Booked this place near one of our friends and it did not disappoint. The amenities were amazing, the property owner was super helpful and nice, and it was well worth the price. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a good place to stay!!

February on the island

It was clean and quiet. Beach is a close walk but the ocean is just a little farther. Would definitely recommend and will come back.

Comfy home

Very cozy home. Left snacks for us to eat. Bed was very soft. Internet connection was good and have 2 smart tvs to watch the tv from. Access to Netflix. Great place to stay for Mardi Gras as the parade passes right by.

Excellent stay!

Best stocked property we've ever stayed at! Set a completely new standard and this is the gold standard. We've stayed at properties that rented for almost 10X times this rental price that really cut every corner possible. Not this one. The property was also spotless and smelled great! Hard to beat this one...

Nice quiet unit

My husband and I along with our dog had a quick anniversary and new year’s celebration here. We enjoyed exploring Dauphin Island. The unit was as listed. The dishwasher was not working but Carmen had warned us about it and supplied paper plates and plastic ware so we didn’t need to wash as many dishes.

Smelled clean

House was clean and smelled good! The bed was comfortable and had plenty of towels. There was snacks and wine. The only con was that there was no blender and my daughter wanted to make smoothies. I bought a blender and left it there for the next renters. Overall it was a great and I would definitely rent it again!
