Overall great experience staying here! House was nice and was even better that it was on the beach.

It was wonderful to be right on the water! The kids could run down to the sand anytime they wanted and it made for a memorable trip. Easy walk to the public beach too. Views of the water from almost every room, and the property manager was super quick with maintenance needs.

The house was quite and perfect location.

This was our 3rd stay at Dauphin Island and chose to try the far west end of the island. This unit met our needs as far as size and pet friendly. It is definitely in need of TLC. While I realize that 90% of the homes on this part of the island are rentals and maximizing income is important, so is a place that does not have sections of the interior walls coming apart. Lots of mold and rust which is not uncommon of coastal living but water/condensation dripping off the vents onto you was a little much. The kitchen was a little under stocked for eating in. We cook when we come here and have learned to bring the things we absolutely need, knives/pans, etc. We also bring our own grill as the ones at beach side properties are always rusty and or not functional at all, as was the case here. WiFi was solid and no issues streaming stuff at night. Biggest disappointment was the location or more importantly the house that is situated right between this unit and the beach. You have little to no beach view unless looking off to the ends of the deck. The unit behind them has light that is kept on all night. You could land a plane off the light coming from it. Big detractor in the evening while trying to enjoy the night sky. Also, the seawall around that house makes for very loud waves. We like the waves but at night is was very hard to sleep due to the amplified sound from the waves on the sea wall. All in all, this unit is serviceable. It is need of a little TLC and a good cleaning.
