The property was very clean, and very comfortable. I would recommend to others. I think the host did a good job with all of my wants/needs prior to getting there. Once on the property just a few hours after I arrived, I had one minor issue with the main TV. I was unable to access the satellite service, and I don’t feel like my needs were taken seriously. Only hours prior to leaving was I able to finally fix the problem myself. The host responded but I didn’t feel my problem was handled appropriately. There was bad weather the weekend I was there, I was traveling alone, and I was stuck in the bedroom for most of the time I was there because the only TV with satellite access was in the bedroom.

This stay was a breath of fresh air. Prior to our arrival, Jennifer was very communicative, and made sure we were well-informed on expectations and check-in processes. The room itself was fantastic, with a great view of the Gulf of Mexico, and private access to a beautiful beach. The unit was outfitted with everything to make our stay perfect! It was a short walk from the unit to the local bar/eatery Pirate's Pizza and Wings that had delicious pizza and made the perfect cocktails. Overall, I highly recommend staying here; I DEFINITELY will be back!

This is a great place to stay. It is second floor so you can see the ocean. It was clean and quiet. There are retirees that live there so they want you to be quiet. The only thing I would recommend is a chair in the living room. The couch is the only place to sit. We ended up bringing an outside chair in while we were there.

It was the perfect get away! This place is very clean and aesthetically decorated. Check in/out process was easy. Walk to beach is easy. It was my first time to Daphin island. Me and my two daughters went for a quick two night stay. Dauphin island is great. I would advise to stop in Mobile for grocery’s and such before you head to the island. There are limited options I. The island and higher cost. I would def go back. It is nice and chill!

First, we loved our condo! The decor was fresh and “beachy”. We felt at home immediately. I am picky about clean into the corners and clean vents. ( Unbelievable how many times vents are fuzzy little bears “Ahhhhh….Choooo!) Access to the gorgeous beach and Gulf via a boardwalk that preserves the native grasses was easy with beach set-ups available by separate vendors. I highly recommend the condo and working with Jennifer, our landlady, she responded quickly at all hours, to my questions.

Overall a very nice condo and just the right size for a couple. It is more of a hike to the shoreline than I expected, though. Communication with our host was great and with her blessing, we were able to check in a little early. A good but too short stay.

We loved this beautifully decorated condo! The balcony had great views of the pool and beach and ships and oil rigs in the distance. The walk to the water is long, and the beach had lots of sand bars and tide pools, but that’s just part of a barrier island that’s always changing. We saw dolphins playing close by as we were at the beach our last morning. The home was clean (except one forgotten item in the freezer), and the towels were great. We were a bit disappointed that there were only two chairs at the table on the patio, since there isn’t a dining table inside and the bar stools were a bit high for young children. The pictures showed four. The table was also pushed against an outside storage closet door that wouldn’t stay shut without it. Overall, we had a lovely time. The kids loved the games and books in the home.

Great location. The room was clean, classy, and very comfortable. The facility was well-kept and conveniently close to everything. Beach access was just steps outside the door, which made the stay even better. The owner/operator was easy to work with, and everything was handled smoothly—our expectations were met and even exceeded.

This was a great little condo! Everything was very well kept and spacious for our family of 4, kids are 3 and 6. The view was beautiful and everything functioning properly. Beds were OK, it’s hard to find a bed that’s just right. The couch was fine, it wasn’t the most comfortable but we didn’t spend the most time on it. Lobby was always clean, smelled great. Elevators worked timely and locking/unlocking the room was great. Appliances worked correctly too.Some personal negatives for me but it wouldn’t impact me recommending this place to anyone. - the walk to the actual beach, is ROUGH. The sand is also extremely hot in the middle of the day. My two kids were bravely struggling to get to the boardwalk. - the pools are not chilled. I know this isn’t super common but it’s something to think about. It was probably bath water temperature, 90. - would recommend a curved shower curtain rod- couch that allows for some extended lounging.

Great Family Time

We all loved staying here. The beach view from the balcony is awesome and we enjoyed it a lot. The beach is just a shot walk from the Condo. It has both warm and cold water pools. Kids enjoyed both. Restaurants are in walkable distance and food also good there. Condo is pretty clean as listed and has all things you needed.

Lovely condo for a beach stay. Just the right size for one, but would be great for couple or couple + kid too. Location perfect (restaurants, shopping, beach, birds, pools). Lots of extra touches to make things nice. Only suggestions would be to add a side chair with ottoman in the living area, and to have detailed instructions on TV operation (remotes, Direct TV versus Vizeo, for both sets).
