We had some lockbox issues, but it all worked out in the end.

Overall....a great little spot
Had a long weekend at this condo with family. Plenty of room for everyone. The check in process was a little discouraging as the unit was not adequately numbered. Wasn't sure we were at the right unit, until we tried the lock Box.the check out process was easy enough. We the beasch acess was great.box.

Will stay again
We had a great time, the condo is very nice. Check in was very difficult because there were no markings on the doors and the door was very difficult to get open. There were 2 doors for A-2 but neither was marked. The door that had the lock box was very difficult to open, leading to anxiety attack. Later we discovered that the key also fit the exterior kitchen door and that doorknob and deadbolt worked smoothly. For check-in, my suggestion is to mark the kitchen door with "A-2" and place the lock box on it. For cleanliness, all was clean except 1. the master ensuite bathroom wall on the mirror side and the shelves above the toilet were all very dusty; 2. the ceilings have some water stains in various places throughout the condo; 3. the attic access ceiling door isn't closed all the way. Everything else was very, very clean. The AC works great!! The wifi could be better, we had trouble streaming a movie to the living room tv using our Roku stick we brought with us. The parking lot has potholes. Thank you for letting us stay. We liked it.

This is the first property where the pictures are EXACTLY what you get. The condo was very nice, and looks EXACTLY like the pictures. The location was a 1 minute walk from the sand, and it was SO quiet. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked, usually there is always something I wish I had when cooking, but this is the first time I have ever not needed any utensil or pot or pan, everything was there.
The condo is of good size, two generous bedrooms, a pull out couch and a second couch and love seat. Beautiful views of the ocean and a short walk to the pool. The condo was great and provided plenty of space for the five us. The condo is fully stocked with dishes, towels, linens, has a washer and dryer as well games for the kids.
Recommendations to the owner/manager: Only one roll of toilet paper was provided for each restroom, only two large bags for the trash were found, dishwasher soap, as well as laundry detergent were barely supplied as well. Beach towels were found eventually but not easily located. Would recommend placing all items for guest use in one or two of the main closets and label as such. We hesitated to use many items as we were uncertain if they were for the property owners use only. Clearly marking totes or closets and providing a binder with additional information to the renter would be a nice touch.
This location on the island is our favorite due to proximity to the beach, fort, and nature preserve. We prefer Dauphin island due to the lazy island feel that caters to family. Unlike other beach destinations which have the hustle and bustle of tons of tourist and shops. Dauphin Island has a different feel a slow pace perfect for families with young kids or the avid fishermen, we spend our days enjoying the pool and beach not always searching for the next thing to entertain us.
The condo was exactly as described in the description. It was very clean, and the management team was very responsive. The view from the condo to the beach is amazing and the beach access is literally steps away from the door of the condo. I would recommend this location for individuals and families looking for a quiet getaway location.
