Información de la propiedad

"AIN'T LIFE GRAND"-KAYAKS, GOLF CART, PRIVATE BEACH, CRAB TRAPS!

This house is a new rental in 2020. Ain't Life Grand is a 1800 sq ft house located on the Mississippi Sound side of Dauphin Island. This house is very special in that it has a private beach on the Mississippi Sound and a ground level pool. The "Gulf" side of the island is just a 7-10 minute walk or a 1 minute golf cart ride. The house has been recently renovated. Included in the rental are 5 sea kayaks, including single, tandem and kids kayaks, for exploring the canals and Sound. Dauphin Island is considered the sunset capital of the south and Ain't Life Grand gets some of the best views of sunsets on the island.

For the fisherman, Ain't Life Grand has a mooring post for your boat and will handle a boat up to 28 ft. The Sound is full of speckled trout, redfish, flounder, triple tail, ling (cobia), crabs, shrimp and much more. In the Gulf you will find all of the above, plus snapper, grouper, king mackerel, spanish mackerel and many other off shore species. There is a full fish cleaning station on the pool deck with sink, washdown and cutting board. Aint Life Grand even comes with 3 top of the line crab traps for that crab boil you love!

Ain't Life Grand is perfect for families and kids. The Sound, where the private beach is and house are located, is shallow and calm, perfect for kids and adults alike. For more surf and Alabama's famous white sand beaches just head to the Gulf side of the Island

Ain't Life Grand also has a Crow's Nest on the top of the house with 360 degree views The large back deck overlooks the pool and private beach.

The house layout is a 3 bedroom/2 bath. The master has a connecting bathroom and queen bed. Guest room 1 also has a queen bed and guest room has 2 sets of bunk beds so 4 can sleep there. Both rooms have a shared bathroom with shower and bathtub. The house sleeps 8 comfortably. There are 3 tv's, one in the main room, one in the master and one in the bunk bed room.

Outside you have a huge deck around the pool, a hot and cold outdoor shower, access to the beach and on the front deck, the house is a gas grill for cooking your catch. Under the house is parking for you ca, the golf car and the sea kayak rack. Also included is a large drum fan for those warm days and a compressor to blow up floats and tubes. Please be aware the Wharf was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and is not usable at this time.

You can charter most any size boat for fishing, cruising, dolphin watching, etc. And you can also rent boats at the Dauphin Island Marina.

Ain't Life Grand also includes all linens, Dish Satellite TV, and high speed internet. The kitchen is fully stocked with microwave, toaster, stove, pots, pans, blender, air fryer and even an ice cream maker.

You can rent a golf cart for your stay directly from the owners after booking for additional price. We upgraded the Golf Cart to a new 2023 Aerctic 6 passenger with a top speed of almost 27 mph! Great way to see the island and access the Gulf side.

The pool can also be heated to 90 degrees for an additional price, contact owner for more details.

Please do not print, sign and mail the contract to me. It is just an example of the contract for you to review. A week or so prior to your arrival, we will execute the contract via Docusign and will take care of heated pool/golf cart rental.

Finally, Hurricane Sally and Hurricane Zeta both did extensive damage to the house. We replaced almost everything, walls, ceilings, floors, much of the deck, insulation, subflooring, paint, etc.... It is basically like a new house! If you loved Aint Life Grand in the past, wait till you see it now!

Perfect location

Great bay location. We now prefer the bayside of the island. Quiet and peaceful beach right in front the house. Get the golf cart, so fun to drive all over the island in it. Pool is such a great option when waves are rough or you are tired of the sand. Kids loved hitting the beach in the am and the pool in the afternoon.

Amazing!!!!

We loved our time on DI!!! This house was perfect for family. It is decorated beautifully, but still comfy and beachy! The pool and private beach in your backyard is awesome! The pool is gated and safe for little ones. There is access to the Gulf side beach just across the street from the neighborhood. It's a short walk, but the golfcart made it a lot easier. Driving the golfcart made exploring the island, running errands, and getting snow cones way more fun!! John was a great host! We will definitely be back!!

Great Vacation

Can not say enough good things about this vacation. Location is great. Calm water for the kids to play in with easy access to the gulf. Enjoyed watching the dolphins (which came very close), walking the beaches and hanging out on the decks. The heated pool was a must during the winter and the kids (10, 8 and 4) plus the adults spent hours swimming a day. Will definitely stay again!

Spring Break

John is an amazing host! He set the expectations before we arrived. The house was right on the water with plenty of water toys. The pool was wonderful but would have loved a few loungers for sun bathing. We are from the Midwest so we were not familiar with the area. John helped and his recommendations were great but we found taking the ferry to Fort Morgan and going to Publix was better for us than Greers grocery. Our kiddos have a few allergies and Publix had more choices. I feel the best part of this trip was how laidback it was and you have no choice but to disconnect and stay in the moment. Our kids loved the freedom of being able to explore while feeling safe. Thank You John & family!

A wonderful getaway

We had a wonderful time there. The islamd is amazing. We enjoyed the public beaches as well as our beach in the sound. This house was great. The gold cart is a must and the ONLY way to go about the island. We enjoyed the pool thoroughly and took the sea kayaks out. John was clear in his communication about the property and check in process. This was a perfect vacation.

Wonderful Vacation

This is our second year staying at "Ain't Life Grand" and both times were absolutely wonderful. The house was very clean and had all the necessities for a great vacation - the kitchen is fully stocked with everything one may need, the beds were comfy and clean, there were even toys for little ones that our toddler enjoyed playing with during our stay. John provided recommendations on what to do in the area and where to eat and shop, which came in handy. Overall, we had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to coming back next year.

Fantastic getaway

The property is perfect in location and beauty. It has all the amenities and more. I highly recommend this as your next beach vacation. It is a spacious home, well equipped for cooking in and the outdoor space is amazing. The pool is wonderful for coming home to after a day at the beach when you need to get away from the sand and heat. I also want to say that the owner looks out for your every need including any tropical storms that might head your way. He is all about your safety! We will definitely be returning!

Lovely beach trip with kids and friends

My friend and I took our boys (11-14) on a beach vacation. We were able to relax, and the boys enjoyed the beach and the pool. They also played basketball several times at the park nearby. My older son said the sunset on the beach was his favorite memory. The property was great, and the hosts clearly maintain it to ensure guest have a great experience. Great hosts! I definitely recommend it.

Lovely, Peaceful place!

If you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing beach vacation, this is it! The house is lovely and very comfortable and the pool is great. The point at the house is like having your own private beach, we saw lots of hermit crabs during the day and sand crabs at night. The kayaks were awesome, we got to kayak with dolphins right out from the house! Dauphin Island is a peaceful little beach town with an aquarium and bird sanctuary. Plenty to do! We’ve stayed in quite a few VRBO beach houses and John is the friendliest owner we’ve ever dealt with, it was a pleasure!

Great Stay

Beautiful property and comfortable accommodations. John had great communication with me throughout the entire process. We had paid to have the pool heated for our stay. The pool did not heat up and I messaged John to let him know we were never able to use the pool and he responded immediately and refunded that portion of our payment, and even let us know after our departure that the pool pump had gone out and apologized for the inconvenience. Regardless of the pool situation, we had a great stay at Ain’t Life Grand!!!

Life Was Grand!

Hi there! I wanted to comment on what a lovely week my two adult children and I had staying at "Ain't Life Grand!" We returned from Dauphin Island three days ago and are already looking forward to returning as soon as we can! The owner's of the property are top notch! They have thought of everything to welcome newcomers to the island and their home! The private beach on the bay and the chlorinated swimming pool were having the best of both worlds at our feet. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. The photographs are accurate and depict the many amenities needed for a visit to DI. The golf cart rental option was fun to drive around the island. Thank you for a memorable visit! ownwers of the p

Very nice

Very nice, as described and clean. Had everything we needed for cooking, nice grill that was clean on back deck, plenty of linens and beach towels. All appliances, ac, hot water, ect.., work great. House is right on the beach. Pool was clean & plenty big enough for 4 kids to play in. Outdoor shower and hose to clean off sand. Shaded parking under deck fit minivan easily. Restaurants we visited on the island were good and reasonably priced. Ample fishing opportunities on island and right at the house. Kayaks were fun to have available. Owner communicates wonderfully. He called a few days before with all the info we needed to be prepared for our trip. Responds quickly & knowledgeable about the island. Would defiantly stay here in the future.

Awesome property, location and owner

We were a group of six. Four adults, a four year old and 18 month old. From the outset the manager was extremely communicative. Our trip wound up being cut short by hurricane sandy. John stayed on top of it the whole time and when it became clear it was time to get out, he let us know and we did. We made the most of our time there and made the right decision to leave thanks to John. It was tough leaving because the property is a blast. The deck spaces are amazing and the pool is perfect for little ones and not so little ones. Beds and furniture are comfortable. House is insanely well equipped with quality kitchen furnishings, good knives and cookware, good kayaks and a big air compressor for inflating toys. Being able to grill on the deck overlooking the sound is awesome. Views are incredible, and the sound is an ideal beach for kids. Gentle waters that can be waded out a long way. The gulf beach is a short golf cart ride away, but not being on the gulf side is a plus in my book as the sound is so much more play-friendly. I can’t say enough about this property or the host. We are already looking at dates for next year. You will not be disappointed with Ain’t Life Grand.

We had a wonderful stay at Ain’t Life Grand! This was our first time on the bayside rather than the gulf, and we loved it. The calm, shallow waters and little beach area were perfect for our kids. We enjoyed daily walks along the shoreline, and the golf cart made it easy to explore the island and visit the gulf side, just down the road.The house was very clean, and the upper deck—accessible from both the living room and bedrooms—was a favorite spot for our family to relax. Our kids especially loved the pool, and having kayaks available was such a nice bonus.John was an excellent host, and we would absolutely stay here again!
