The unit is very well located. Beautiful view. The unit floor design is great. Good for 2 families. The unit was very clean. One downside was the access to the internet. The network was on and off every night. Should change the provider or equipment. Thank you

The unit was nice, the communication was great. Not as clean as it could have been. Great location !

The view was amazing and we love that you walked right onto the beach! The home was very clean and decorated nicely!

This property is nice and overall clean but it has some drawbacks. The downstairs bedroom is very small with no closet and the adjacent bath is the same. The kitchen area is tiny and as the limited cabinets were full of dishes, there is no where to put food. There were no mixing bowls, no measuring cup and the pans were old and scratched. Definitely plan on bringing your own pizza pan, cookie sheet and other necessities. The condo does allow pets but be aware that there is literally NO where for the dog to potty. The dunes outside are "protected" and the beach is not open to dogs. I tried to take my dog out to the area adjacent to the parking lot and he got horrible sticky thorns in his paws and fur. There is a narrow, winding path that leads to the beach but it is difficult to traverse, especially with a cart. The upstairs bedrooms are spacious and nice and the living/dining area is great as well. Bearing these things in mind and bringing dishes to supplement, this condo could be nice for a small family....probably best to leave Fido at home.

We stayed for my sons 21st birthdays, and it all turned out so wonderfully!! Beautiful & clean space. Perfect location. We will definitely be back

The location of Dory #E could not have been better. Having the dunes just outside the balcony was more than perfect! And very close to restaurants and stores so didn't have to drive far for whatever we needed. We could see that good changes are being made to the condo. The new paint was obvious and gave it a fresh feel. The beds were VERY comfortable and the rooms each had individual style. The upgrades, like the screened in porch, will add space and lots of charm. It seemed a bit small, though, for sleeping 10 people. We had 6 adults so seemed tight. Family with young kids, though, it would be great. The kitchen was not super....it was Thanksgiving so we did A LOT of cooking. But it definitely would be a location we would go back to. Location. Location. Location. Couldn't have been better. Thank you!!

There was no light in the sunroom which made it difficult to sit out there in the evening. The thermostat was confusing to figure out and the furnace wouldn’t turn on when it was very cold at night. There’s a lot of stairs at the condo so it may not be good for anyone who has arthritis or pain.

We absolutely loved this condo. It’s in a great location with awesome beach access. The unit was spacious and very clean. On the day of our arrival after driving for 8 hours and having 2 dogs we were ready to relax. The door code that we were sent by Southern Vacation Rentals was incorrect. I understand things happen. So we called the number we were given, no answer. We called the 24 hour number we were given, no answer. We texted the texting number we were given, no answer. We drove to the location of the office, no answer. Luckily the people in the condo beside us said hello and asked us if we were having trouble. Long story short they lived there and knew the owners of our condo. So the neighbor called the owner and she gave him her code for us to use. By the time we got into the condo we had been outside trying to contact someone at southern vacation rentals for over 2 hours. Thank goodness for the amazing neighbors. Once inside we got ready and went to dinner. 4.5 hours later I got a text back from southern vacation rentals that said “we are sorry for the inconvenience are you sure you entered the code correctly?” You have no idea how irritated I was with southern vacation. However this is a management issue, not a owner/condo issue. The condo and owner were amazing!!! So I just say if you stay here you’ll definitely love the condo. Beware of Southern Vacation Rentals and their glacial pace at responding.

The stay was great. Awesome for me and my family. The stairs were fun get your exercise in. Place was clean and tidy. We did brought some of our own trash bags, soap, hair blower dryer, dish soap as advise. The stay exceeded our expectations. Walking distance right off to the beach and not crowded. Excellent communication. We did have hiccups with the main door entrance where the lock would unlock but the door frame was the issue (wouldn’t let us in). Quick response and resolution. Thank you for a pleasant stay. We would stay again.

House was amazing!!! Plenty of room for the ten of us...loved the short walk to the beach!! Very clean and hope to stay here again!!

Been to Dory several times before, but stayed in this unit only once. Main door key code didn’t work and finally got in after code was reset multiple times. Door never worked properly. Reported but not fixed. Air conditioning was not working properly & maintenance came and fixed. Dryer didn’t work, knob was stripped. Great location and overall nice place to stay. Southern Vacation was hard to contact for issues. Be mindful of beach goers from condos across the street - they take over Dory beach access, so setup early.

Only complaint was a faulty Clothes Dryer. Very inconvenient.

We had an awesome family vacation here! Right on the beach , comfortable, and clean! The toaster was broken, and when I told them, they were there that day to replace it!

Small non-private beach access was easily and frequently swamped by fishermen... retrieved multiple hooks and fishing line etc... from beach. Dryer didn’t work upon arrival, manager unable to get parts had to deal with hanging wet cloths everywhere we could for entire week of stay. Did refund some money but the hassle dampened the vacation made condo eyesore and unenjoyable.

A Great location for privacy. Property was as described. Only negative was that you could not control the air conditioning between the hours of 11pm and 6am it seemed to be a smart thermostat that could be controlled remotely.

We loved our time at The Dory! It's right on the shore, so the beach access can't be beat. Beautiful views from the decks and nicely appointed. We stayed with my 8yo, 5yo, and 2yo and it was very family friendly. The damage from the hurricane was still pretty extensive and most of the properties in the unit were being repaired, so be prepared for some extra noise from that. In general, a great stay!!

The property is right next door to the Lost Keys community pool and property, so it’s more crowded than it used to be but still manageable. And it closes around 6 pm, so no nightly noise issue. The condo is perfect for a family, but be aware there are stairs to deal with. The location is perfect for us, but we aren’t into the restaurants and shopping - it’s a bit of a drive to Orange Beach, Pensacola, or Gulf Shores If you want a quiet, relaxing beach trip, this is the perfect place.

I contacted SVR to let them know the screen had several holes, exterior door knob to the beach is missing, water valve handle is broken so we used the neighbors. The top of the stairs have carpet nails sticking out so don’t walk barefoot inside. The inside has a lot of dust hanging in the kitchen above the counters. The pots are old and the Teflon comes off into your food while cooking. The cabinets were filthy, especially the trash can area. The top of the fridge had a coat of dust on it. There was black mold on the sliding glass doors especially in the master bedroom. The balconies could use some pressure washing to remove the black mold and green algae especially Compared to the other units there. Otherwise, the beds are comfortable, WiFi is decent. We enjoyed our stay . If cleaned properly we would come back.

We had an amazing stay! Very nice property! Will definitely stay here again!

My grandchildren said this was the best place we have ever stayed. Beach not super crowded, condo clean and spacious. Kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the two balconies overlooking the gulf. Will come again next year!

This property was exactly as described. We had an extraordinary experience and enjoyed every moment in Perdido Key.

We loved this property. It's so nice. Great views. Plenty of room on the beach. Perdido Key isn't so crazy crowded; you're not elbow-to-elbow with other resort guests. The condo is clean. We loved having the screen porch on the 1st level. It's a great place to keep your chairs, floats, and other beach gear. There's a hose for washing up before heading inside. Up the stairs on the second floor is a great open-concept living and dining area, along with a bath and the bedroom with the bunks. Very bright, airy, and coastal blue and white. It's all reflective of the beach itself - ocean waves and sugar sand! There was no grit in the carpet or sheets. The furniture was clean. Tub/showers were sparkling. Smelled nice - no musky, old vibes. Tidy and inviting! The third floor has a wonderful master with an exceptional view. The other queen bedroom is nice as well. Master has direct access to the shared upstairs bath. The queen bedroom enters from the hall. Whenever we had questions, we just texted property management, and they responded promptly. We had a little issue with the entrance, getting past the keyless entry. We eventually got it. We texted and had a response in less than 5 minutes, though. We appreciated that. We had a garage and two parking passes. That was super. The decks were nice, and the tall chairs made it easy for us to see all the Gulf beauty. On the beach itself, you'll see sandpipers, plenty of shells, herons, pelicans, and dolphins. The water was beautiful while we were there. The seagrasses in the breeze were picture-perfect. The sunset fires up behind the condo, but beautiful light and colors find their way onto the horizon the condo faces. It's mostly spacious. The kitchen is tight, but there's room for two. And if you're like us, we only cook breakfast. We head out to eat during the evenings. The table easily seats 7. Then you have the bar with 3 seats. There were books to read. We had Wifi, and we made use of Netflix. All in all, we loved it. We loved the area. Quiet, peaceful, and fun. Plenty of good eats and treats. The Oyster Bar was our favorite. We also ate at The Crab Trap and Fisherman's Corner. We even drove into Orange Beach and ate at The Gulf and played at Adventure Island. We'll be back. And we wouldn't mind staying right here again! Thanks for being so organized with the reservation and helpful along the way!

Loved the condo with stayed in. Perfect location to the beach and private. Overall was happy with the place. My only issue was, wish I would have stayed longer. Will definately be returning, thank you!

Stairs, Stairs, Stairs. Beds are very comfortable and the view from 3rd floor balcony is wonderful. Great location, very accommodating for young family. Plenty of nice restaurants in the area. Blue Angels practice 30 minutes away and USS Alabama Battleship about an 1 1/2 drive.

Dory E was a great place to stay. We felt like we had our own private beach area.

This quaint town home situated directly on the beach was perfectly for our stay. The beds were super comfortable and everything was very clean. The kitchen was small but had just about every kitchen essential. It was a little odd that the two adult bedrooms on the third floor had to share a toilet/shower but thankfully it wasn’t a big deal for us. Will definitely come back

This place was amazing. No complaints. The downstairs couch wasn’t very comfortable for nighttime tv watching, but beds were all very comfortable. It was close to several restaurants and shops. Great family location. Not too crowded. The condo had a private beach area which was very nice. Make sure that you bring either “cone” shaped coffee filters or K cups. Overall, we were very happy and will most likely come back to this place.

Had a wonderful time with a couple small glitches - had some issues with the door lock that ended up locking us out a couple of times, but that was resolved via phone calls. Also, there were no directions to work any the multiple remotes on any of the TVs. That needs to be provided. We never did figure out how to access simply the usual cable channels which was a bit distressing because we had family and friends in the way of hurricane Florence. Other than that, beds were comfortable, kitchen was great, all rooms clean, no lingering pet odors even though they accept pets. Keep in mind only one bedroom, the master, has a beach view. Entry stairway carpet could use a bit of more through cleaning or replacement. All in all, would recommend. The beach is amazing and beautiful and feels like a private beach. [just ask for the remotes guide!!]

Very clean and well equipped unit. Stairs were steep and difficult for my husband with leukemia and old dog. The bottom step going into unit carpet was loose and a hazard if someone got caught on it. When reserving unit I didn’t realize that Master bedroom bath had to be shared with extra bedroom. Very awkward arrangement. Easy beach access but beach is not visible downstairs and gives a bad first impression. Best beach view is on Master bedroom balcony which is actually on top floor. I paid to check in early and code had not been reset. I spent 30 minutes trying to get in and getting someone to change code for access. I wanted to unload so when my daughter brought my husband down, he could rest and watch his football game. Overall we enjoyed our stay but wouldn’t stay there again because of stairs and layout. Thanks Andrea Lay

We loved our stay at the Dory. It was late August, and we had the entire beach to ourselves. The booking with Southern was quick and easy. The unit is decorated very nicely and had almost everything we needed. We only needed a few additional items - we went to the local grocery store and bought handsoap, coffee, coffee filters, and an umbrella. We left the handsoap and umbrella for the next visitors. We brought two small dogs with us and they loved the balconies. There’s not much room to walk the dogs in front or behind the unit, but if you walk to the left (towards the larger condos) there’s quite a bit of grass and a doggie-bag dispenser and trash can. We ate at Lillian’s Pizza and the Oyster Bar - both were very good. We had beniets from the Beniet place near the condo in a shopping center and they were great (largest beniets I have ever seen). We also drove to the Orange Beach area and ate at The Gulf and Cobalts. We spent most of our time on the beach and it was the perfect trip. Thank you for such a wonderful place to stay.
