About this house rental

Located in Dauphin Island, this attractive house for $641 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Strand Castle is a Gulf-front house with an ideal beach house layout- 4 bedrooms, a Game Room overlooking the Gulf in the 4th bedroom, a small, private, heated pool (October through April), and roof-top Crow's Nest. It's easy to see why this beach house is one of Dauphin Island's most popular vacation rentals. This elevated, two-story home has a Master Suite on the first level with a private full bath.

The home has a new owner and was completely updated in Winter 20/21. New flooring, fixtures, furniture, and paint throughout. It is a stunning makeover!

We throughly enjoyed the stay being close to the beach and the size of house was perfect for our family. We just have a few minor recommendations for improvement: 1. There is a small amount of mold growing close to kitchen and vents need to be dusted. 2. We believe there are roaches in the framework of house with a few coming in from behind the ocean side door frame while doors are closed. 3. Fridge was slow to cool with a few items not being fully refrigerated a few days later. Besides that, we had everything we needed and overall cleanliness was great. Thank you for a wonderful visit.

Pros: - the beach is spectacular and though neighbors are close, feels very private - house fit our group really nicely - bird sanctuary has really nice trail system Cons: - pool was broken (no heat) for most of our stay. Repair staff told us it breaks almost everyday and they keep coming out to ‘fix’ it but that owners really need to do a larger repair on it. - deck furniture, as mentioned in other reviews, could use major improvement. - deck needs to be redone. Major splinter issues with kids. - no grocery store nearby. Drove to Mobile to get affordable groceries for the week (3 hour endeavor). Everything on island is super overpriced. - towels are abysmal. Would be great to provide beach towels as well as proper bath towels. Anyone flying here doesn’t have ability to bring all of this themselves. - If you plan to only hang out at the house, this is a perfect vacation spot. Otherwise there is virtually nothing else to do on the island or within a one hour drive. - on island restaurants are pretty bad. Lastly, might have been in our packet somewhere, but emergency storm information would have been good to have. We had a pretty bad storm and weren’t sure what an evacuation might look like, how we would be notified. Doesn’t take much rain for island to flood. We had a great time, but with the amount we spent, I expected more.

House setup and space was great. Several construction issues that needed to be addressed. Broken or loose railings, pool and hot tub had heating issues, hot tub jets didn’t work nor did any of the lights inside them work. Other than those minor things it was a very nice time

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Strand Castle. All the kids had their own spaces, we had pool tournaments every night, and waking up to the view of the beach was priceless. This was our first time at Dauphin Island and Strand Castle helped make it a great trip. The kids loved being able to get into the pool and hang out on the beach that was "right there." The house was incredible. The views from the crows nest were unmatched!
