Plenty of space for family

Great house, loved this property, plenty of room and beds for all of us, short walk to the pool and beach. Definitely recommend this place.

My family and I really enjoyed staying in this unit. Having the two stories made it feel as if we were staying in a house. It is older, but does have some upgrades. The kids had plenty of room upstairs (5 boys and 2 girls) while hubby and I had downstairs. Just a short walk to the beach (you can see the water from the unit, but not the sand), on sidewalks to the boardwalk, or you can cut thru the grass for quicker access. Although, mosquitos were in full force, so we didn’t go thru the grass often. The kids liked the pool…it says 3 ft but most definitely felt deeper, so think life jackets for smaller kids. It goes to 8 ft. The island is quiet and about 20 mins to the nearest Dollar General and about 40 mins to the nearest Walmart. If you are church goers, there is Dauphin Island Baptist that is only 5 minutes from the condos that we enjoyed. It was definitely a pleasant stay, even with all the rainy days we had. Several games in the cabinet for the kids and satellite to watch tv. Rhonda was great to respond quickly when the dryer didn’t want to dry and a curtain rod fell, and promptly came out the next morning. Thanks so much for being a great host…I would recommend!

This is our 3rd year staying at this property we love it!

VERY GOOD

The house was older than what was showed online but, big enough and everything we needed to space out. Not a long walk to beach. Beach was not crowded at all we could always go at night and search for crabs the kids and grandkids enjoyed it so much. The pool was never over crowded. This was one of my favorite places to go.

This is exactly what my heart needed. From the moment we got to the property all the worries of everyday life just melted away. The condo was clean and beautiful. It had all of the normal items from home and we really didn't need anything. The internet connection was a little spotty but that was to be expected because of where we were and it helped to not have our phones connected to us. The beach and pool areas were just amazing. This little island is perfect to get away. Thank you so much to our hosts for making this stay so wonderful.

Clean, quiet, perfect location. Wasn’t overcrowded and had no issues with the condo at all.

The place was large enough for our group. Rhonda was exceptional host, especially since we booked last minute. The kitchen was very well stocked. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.

I’ll start by giving the layout of the house which could be more helpful in the property details. There is one bedroom with a bathroom downstairs. There is huge bedroom upstairs with queen (i think) bed, bunk beds, small couch, and still plenty of extra room. There’s a bathroom upstairs. Another room next to that bathroom. Another room with attached bathroom. There’s also an extra living area upstairs and a balcony. This place is VERY LARGE and will easily accommodate a large group. The walk to the beach was easy and not far at all, although would have been better if the grass was cut. Restaurants on the island were soooo good. We took the ferry to Fort Morgan then drove to Gulf Shores. Probably faster just driving around (1.5 drive) but kids loved the ferry. Island is secluded and beach was not busy at all. We will absolutely return. Possibly our new yearly vacation spot!!!

Our stay was really great! There are lots of amenities including lots of cooking utensils, kids plates/forks/spoons, spices, detergent, plenty of towels for bathing and soap for the kitchen and bathrooms. There was even a box fan and a couple hair dryers and a straightener. This unit is the furthest back and the walk to the beach is not far at all. It’s pretty secluded and the beach was not crowded. It was a nice walk down the beach either direction... to the west it gets even more secluded and that’s where we saw some birds, to the east are some nice beach houses to gaze at. The pool was clean and the kids loved it. I think they loved the stairs and bunk beds more than the beach or pool though! There is a landline which was nice because cell calls were very poor quality. It came in handy when one of us ran to the store and needed to call for something. There are 2 alexas, a TV in each bedroom, games and movies. There was plenty of hot water and water pressure. At one point, all the showers were in use and no one ran out of hot water and I was able to wash the conditioner out of my hair, which is thick and long. There is plenty of space and my 19 month old daughter was able to sleep upstairs without being disturbed by everyone else, even the other kids playing upstairs (my daughter was asleep by around 7 each night). There is a thermostat upstairs and downstairs. Lots of great things about this place. It is a bit of a drive to the nearest Walmart, but there are a couple gas stations on the island and a dollar general that is closer than the Walmart. Everyone enjoyed visiting Fort Gaines too! The water at the beach was not clear while we were there. Not sure if that’s always the case or if it was the time of year. It was hard to see but was clearer on some days than others. Overall we really loved our stay here!

The condo was spacious, kitchen was well stocked, and it was a short walk to the beach and the pool! Family really enjiyed

We had a great time with our kids and grandkids staying in this house. We didn't have Wifi until Tuesday which was hard but loved our time swimming and walking on the beach.

The property was in a great location and the size was nice. Only complaints were one shower had not been cleaned, there was a leak behind one of the toilets and the washer quit working . Overall a nice place close to the beach.

We enjoyed our stay, thanks for having us!

We had an absolutely amazing time. The beach wasn't crowded and the condo couldn't have been better. Plenty of space for all four of our kids to have their own place to rest, grandparents to rest in the nice room close to the front door and away from the noise of the kids, and an amazing master suite for us to be able to enjoy but access the kids' rooms quickly and conveniently. It exceeded every expectation. The only issue we had was a neighbor miscommunicating with the owner something the PREVIOUS group had done and we received a very direct and unkind voicemail. We try to be respectful and good guests so this definitely put a negative spin on the trip mid-way through. I tried to get back in touch with the manager who called but was told they were gone and someone would relay the message. They never called back and we just felt that follow up letting us know everything was resolved would have been nice, but nonetheless we had a fabulous time. Additionally, we've never been in a place that left so much open to use by renters. Usually everything is locked away. There were blankets, kitchen utensils, some spices, and kids plates, bowls, etc. a-plenty! It was a nice surprise. We would LOVE to come back to this place again and again.

We loved staying here and having private beach access. Just a short walk to the beach. It had plenty of room for our family of 10. Lots of games and a Wii that the kids loved.

We had a wonderful stay the house was very roomy. I love that all 8 of us could sit at the dinner table and eat together. There is a great yard but it did need mowing while we were there. Short walk to beach and pool. Great place, very peaceful. There were lots of games and cards for the whole family to play.

The condominium was very nice...very nice beach themed decor. Very roomy and private. Close to beach. Short drive to public beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again! Thank you!

We went with another family so we had 4 adults and 6 kids. There was PLENTY of room. I especially loved the huge table we all fit at. There is a large "yard" in between the condos where we played football, soccer, and just ran around. The pool was much nicer than the photo. The beach was a little disappointing. The walk there was short, and the sand nice, but there were jellyfish so we couldn't really comfortably swim in the ocean. Lots of games Lots of pots and pans (could have used a larger skillet or griddle), plenty of dishes, silverware and glasses. Additional spatulas is probably the only thing missing...there were all kinds of other helpful things like a crockpot and ice cream maker should you need those. Also, there were tons of spices and a few other "staples" available. Many of the rooms had TVs and DVD players but the connecting cords were tricky to find and connect. There was a wii with games the kids enjoyed and LOTS of VHS tapes (lol) Wish we'd found the VHS player earlier in the week and been able to show the kids how we watched movies in the "olden" days. We ate take out twice: once at Miguel's tacos and once at Skinner's Seafood. Both very very good. We had the most relaxing vacation. We went in October and were the only vacationers. I believe there were a few other owners there, but we didn't really see anyone else besides the lawn guy and the pool lady. We were the only renters. Overall...I gave it a 4. We came for the beach so were pretty bummed about the jellyfish, but that's probably on us for being unaware mid-westerners. We had fun. We'd recommend it but maybe wouldn't go back to the same place again.

The condo was beautiful and so moderately priced ! A fabulous value and a blessing to have our daughters and grandchildren all in the same house! Thank you so much! We want to come back every year!!

Property was not clean. The listing said 12 people, when we got there we were told we could absolutely have no more than 10. they finally let us have 12. We were not told in advance that we could not have any blow up mattresses for the kids to sleep on, so instead of sending some people the 500+ miles home we rented another house which cost us another $625.00. There was absolutely no communication with the property managers and no willingness to work with us other than renting the second house. We will NEVER go there again. We left the condo MUCH cleaner than we found it.

Great place! A few issues with the TV's working, but it was great!

We enjoyed our stay at the property. The condo is large and accommodating to bigger families. We had 11 people with us and never felt cramped. There is one bedroom downstairs by the kitchen with a queen size bed. The other three bedrooms are upstairs. Two of those have king size beds and the other has a king, two twins and a sleeper sofa. There are at least two other sleeper sofa's in the condo. The condo is a little older, but much care has been taken in the unit. As for the amenities, the unit is well stocked. The carpets have not been replaced, but was not a big deal to us. There was a coleman gas grill in one of the closets that folded up nicely. I could see where some may have missed the grill. There was a full gas cylinder in the closet also. Our kids loved the nintendo wii. It was a big hit, there were many games of bowling, baketball, golf, etc. played while we were there. Bring some batteries! We enjoyed the fact that the island was a little remote. It was about a 30 min drive to Mobile. While it may be a little inconvenient to run get a gallon of milk(a Dollar General was about 12 mins away), it was well made up for in the fact that there was not bumper to bumper traffic. We ate in most days, but did eat at the little bbq place towards the west end of the island. It was terrific! I would recommend visiting the west end of the island, especially around sunset. It was a great place for pictures. They also showed movies on the west end beach at dark on several nights. Our family loves combing the beach for treasures. We did find some shells and a couple of shark teeth close to the condo. I would recommend walking west on the beach towards the golf course. You will quickly leave the crowds behind. It almost felt like we were the only ones on the island. Very peaceful and unlike many of the crowded beach towns. There did seem to be more shells on the west end of the island. I guess the sand bar that jets out near the golf course keeps some of the shells from coming onshore closer to the property. Rhonda did provide our family with a certificate that covered the green fees at the local golf course. The course itself was a little rough, but new management has just recently taken over and is committed to making it a great course again. They seemed to be good folks and were working hard to revive the course. Overall, we really enjoyed our time at the property and on the island. It was a great experience and we would gladly return anytime!

We loved our stay. The beach was perfect!

Condo was clean and very nice. A/c was great! Never got warm in there. Denise was very accommodating and allowed us to use a grille, as we were told before the trip that there would be a charcoal grille there but alas there wasn’t one when we got there. Best family vacation ever!!! Hoping we can get this rental again next year

The property was as advertised and gave us plenty of room to spreadout. We never felt like we were trying to walk over the top of one another. Kitchen had everything we needed and the refrigerator was large. We could see the beach from our place which was nice. We would definitely stay again.

Though it is some what remote but a good spot to get away. All you need is a few steps to beach and pool. Good memories :)

Condo is in a great location with a lot of room to spread out. Condo is well stocked for cooking. However, the kitchen faucet desperately needs replaced. The property manager, Denise, is amazing!!

Loved our stay on Dauphin Island. The beach was so nice and super close to the condo! So much room. Our family of seven was quite comfortable. This is a perfect spot for families!

If you have a big family and want access to the beach, ok. Carpet was very dirty, in fact, walking across the floor resulted in black feet! We had to strip the beds and laundry our own towels plus play a hefty cleaning fee. First time any VRBO ever requested that. Be prepared to provide all basics, including paper goods, soap, etc.
