Our week at Purple Paradise was awesome! A very close walk to the beach and a pool that was well used by both the grandchildren and adults. The house was perfect for us, 6 adults and 5 children. If you want a beach atmosphere without the crowds; Dauphin Island should be your destination!

Listing accuracy is low due to the listing indicating a functional pool; the pool had a catastrophic leak and was not functional our entire stay, to which Vrbo was notified (Adam) and did nothing to help us.Management was rated low due to lack of involvement, never showed up to witness our problem.Our experience with Vrbo was unsatisfactory due to their neglect of supporting us.

Spring Break Stay
Property was set up perfectly for 2 families! Short walk to the beach, warm pool for the chilly evenings during our Spring Break travels! Speedy responses from rental company with needs/questions. Well stocked kitchen and other needed odds and ends. We would definitely go back!
