Shhhhh

I don’t want to say too much good stuff about this place and beautiful island because I want it to stay that way! What a perfect getaway! The beach was quiet after Labor Day weekend and was a perfect setting for us.

Absolutely amazing!

The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. Plenty of room for 2 adults 2 teenagers and 2 smaller children. The balconies were amazing especially the one off the living room, I got to drink my coffee and watch dolphins swim by with the most amazing breeze that lasted all day! We loved this place and will definitely return!

When our air went out they had it up and cooling to the 70 degrees we set it on within 3 hours - that was really good. Nice and neat set of buildings in a gated community. The pool was about 95 degrees and the beach is featureless but clean. Older unit, but nice layout. Closest to the beach. Was not as clean inside as expected, but was ok. Price was fair for the unit. The rental folks were friendly and helpful to get our air back on.

Great long weekend!

First time on Dauphin Island. It was very relaxing and quiet - just what we were looking for! The condo had more room than we expected and every possible kitchen item we could need. Loved being able to park the car under the unit so it wasn't baking in the sun!
