We had a wonderful time during our stay! The house was great and the neighborhood felt so secluded. Short walk the beach. Loved the laid back feel of Dauphin Island. ##### Mark D. Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin S. 3 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Home in a Secluded, Family-Oriented Neighborhood Great stay for our family of 10 ranging in ages from 2 to 57. The neighborhood is quiet, secluded, and perfect for a family getaway. The home is nicely appointed and had all the amenities that we needed for a comfortable stay. Master suite downstairs plus two master suites upstairs were a real plus for the adult couples in our family. Bunk room was an added attraction for the kids, and they also enjoyed their own dedicated bathroom and adjacent loft/sitting area/TV. We had a great stay and would select this property again. ##### Benjamin S. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### John L. 6 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Cleanliness, location #### Jungle house I don’t recommend, jungle because the grass was 2 feet tall, granddaughter caught her toe on warped floor, back deck and bbq nasty, old soap and toothbrush in master bath, gated community you would think it would have been a little higher class than a regular rental but not.we left it cleaner than we found it. Not the owners but the rental company problem. ##### John L.

Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon B. 16 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Getaway Our family had a “Great Escape” for 7 fun-filled days at Dauphin Island, Alabama. For years we’ve enjoyed vacation time in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores, but decided to try something new. We couldn’t have been happier with this vacation home! The location was perfect! We hope to be able to rent this property again ##### Sharon B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol G., Boise City, Oklahoma 30 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house Rental company should have prepared for our arrival, there was no propane so very cold, could not take showers or cook. Got gas next afternoon. Thanks for Elijah! Also lady who took my calls, @ electric heaters! ##### Carol G. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Holly K. 25 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home! Private beach access however misleading on where you can sit on beach due to owners Loved the house. Clean. High end everything. Once you get on beach, front row home owners do not let you sit in front of their homes. So we had an issue with where to set up each day. 15 of us so took a lot of space. House was perfect though. ##### Holly K. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim L. 8 Aug 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Luxury Beach Home review🌴 This beach house is beautiful! New home, great location and wonderful views of the ocean. Our only concerns were that for a six bedroom home, more than 4 coffee cups should be provided and they had zero wine glasses. Home was not clean upon arrival. We left the home in better shape than we found it! Plan on cooking if you visit this island, best place to eat was picking up food at Skinner's! Skinner's food and service was awesome! ##### Kim L.
