Recent Dauphin Island vacation rental reviews

Our stay was great!!! Lots of room for the family or multiple families to spread out in. The concrete under the house was great to not drag sand in and out when loading/unloading and for washing off from the beach! Loved the grassed back yard for the dogs!! The pool was great even though we couldn't enjoy it much with the weather temperature being super cold during our stay. Clean and great quality furniture. The beds are super comfortable!! We stayed during Thanksgiving and there was plenty of cookware and utensils to cook full meals and enjoy the holiday!

The house is beautiful and very clean. The hot tub was an added plus! Great view of the ocean. I would highly recommend this place to family and friends when they visit Dauphin Island.

This beach house is well maintained, bright and welcoming. We loved the floorplan, with the bedrooms and bath separated by the common areas of living space and kitchen, and the decks on the front and back were nice. Colors were pretty and easy to live with. There is a view of the Gulf from the back and a view of Mobile Bay from the front. We were happy that we could bring my son and DIL's dog, and she loved it. I've always insisted on being Gulf front, but this was nice for a change. We plan to go back!😊
