Great location, cute place, has some issues, needs upgrades.

This place is nicely decorated and pretty well stocked with essentials. The location is very nice with an easy walk to the beach across the street. There was an issue with the air conditioner. It can't keep up with the summer heat and needs to be upgraded. The internet was out most of the time there. We did have another issue with a broken kitchen faucet that wouldn't turn off. A plumber was sent out, but he couldn't fix it, so we had constant running water and had to maually turn it off under the house. However, we chose a positive attitude and really enjoyed our time there. Love the beach and being with family. Dauphin Island is the best!

Great beach location

The location on The island was perfect, walking distance to the gulf side and close enough to carry and put out the kayaks right from the house on the bay side. The house is a great, no frills beach house that comfortably slept our family. As with most of the rentals on Dauphin, remember to pack in everything you need, Paper towels, TP, garbage bags, laundry detergent, etc. Having access to the kayaks is a great perk!

Biting ants everywhere

The house was okay . It was some little things like , the dismal water pressure and none of the showers havig spraying wands. Also , the internet would cut out randomly every other hour so you had to reset the router. But the real issue was the infestation of biting ants. We couldnt use the microwave or any cabinets because of the amount of ants everyhwere . They got into our clothes bags, got into the beds and bit the babies leaving behind raised whelps . It was a nightmare that put so much strain on the trip. We couldnt even enjoy the deck or outdoor accommodations becausue of how agressive and numerous these ants were . It was truly awful so much so we thought about leaving early.

Great location!

House was a little small and THIN walls. So my precious 3 year old granddaughter had us all up early every day. Water pressure was light! No water in house if it was on outside. With that being said, it was nice to have a rinse off station outside. The location was fantastic and a very short walk to the beach. As for the beach, it was dirty. Do not take white suits!! I’m used to Destin water and sand. The nice thing was it was not crowded at all. If you go, you must go to Pirates bar and grill. Great food and atmosphere!

Nice quiet time.

We had a very relaxing time at Dauphin Island. We beach was close by. We could see it and feel the breeze on the front porch. The only downside of the trip was no chain grocery stores on the island. The one that was there had limited choices and a very high price tag. We would go back.

Perfect for Families

We had an incredible stay! The house was clean, great location, and easy to settle in to. The location was great, we only had to walk across the street to the beach. Our family of 5 stayed comfortably and have no complaints. Owner was very easy to communicate with and everything was exactly as it was stated.
