The house is big and beautiful. We loved the pool. The view is lacking as there’s a new house being built right in front of it. You have a view of the beach on one side of the house. It had everything you could possibly imagine in the way of kitchen utensils, pots, dishes etc. But it does need a bigger skillet and a k-cup coffee machine. Plush towels and bath mats. It has a gas grill. Even though it was a beautiful house I personally wouldn’t stay there again because the beds are like sleeping on the granite counter top. Expensive high end tempur pedic is my guess but hard as a rock. You can’t fully enjoy a vacation if you don’t sleep well. Mattress Toppers are needed!!! I would rate this house as a five star even with the obstructed view if the beds has toppers on them.

We had a slight issue with a change in the beds available, but contacted Dauphin Island Real Estate(the property manager), and they provided a solution to the issue! We had a great week and really enjoyed the house and Dauphin Island! I hope to get back for another great week of relaxation!

Me and my family stayed on the property in mid August this year. None of us had ever been to the gulf coast and we cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed the trip. The Dauphin Island Real Estate handled the check-in/out process. Everyone was very friendly. Once you book and your vacation nears you download their app so they can update you with reminders, maps, and restaurant and shopping recommendations and things to do. Check in/out was easy and the office is less than a mile from this house. The house itself was very clean and well stocked! We cooked all our meals during the stay and found there to be plenty of kitchen gadgets, pans, pots, and extras. All the cooking appliances worked great and there was a charcoal grill we used often also. We enjoyed the large table for family dinners. You will need to buy or pack in your own paper products, cleaning supplies for laundry and dishwasher, and trash bags once the ones in the house are used. There was an ice maker in the kitchen island that was not working and the one in the fridge was not working either. Within 24 hours the fridge unit was fixed, but can hardly keep up with use if you are filling a cooler for the beach or the deck. The real estate people knew about the broken ice maker in the kitchen island but did not fix or offer to fix while we were present. I recommend using the stand alone ice machine across from the Circle K/ship and shore store. Only $2.50 for 16 lbs. The family room was spacious and full of games, books, places to relax, reading material, and more. There was a TV in every room except the one in the master bedroom was not functional. There are many fans and the house was kept cool by 2 air conditioning units. All bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and had linens and towels. We had plenty of space for our family of 7 to spread out. 4 bathrooms were very nice also. I was pleasantly surprised that the house had a storage area with lots of beach items. We used the chairs, pop up umbrella tent, sand toys, and games. You will need to bring your own boogie boards but they had some flotation items. There were some things that needed repair, Several light bulbs in the house and outside had burnt out. The outdoor shower needed to be repaired as the hose was very old. The shower was functional. There was repair people and a survey crew there for hours a few days which was annoying. I wish the VRBO would have told us so we could leave or ask if it was ok.

The house felt so much like home. The decor matched the beach setting without being too beachy. There was 8 of us and it was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. I noted a few things that needed attention but it didn't interfere with our positive attitude about the place. We actually felt a little sad to leave this am. We really loved the house and island.

The view from the front porch and Easy beach access is wonderful! Remember to have kids wear water socks as the white sand is Super hot until you’re in the water! The kitchen is a great size and table seating is great. I really like opening the main floor blinds everyday and seeing the ocean view as we made breakfast. The beach and surrounding houses were quiet and family friendly. Other places we have stayed, people had Loud Clubbing music blasting from their house or on the beach. None of that, very peaceful. I would really enjoy returning to Dauphin Island and this beautiful beach house! Thank you!

The house was more spacious than the pictures looked which was nice. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could need. We were disappointed that the ice machine in the island was broken and the one in the fridge just couldn’t keep up. The distance to the beach was so nice but the path to get there had electrical cords and large pieces of concrete sticking out of the sand. We did have a problem with some unwanted insects but the rental company had an exterminator come right over and take care of them. Overall, it was a great week.
