Gulf front home with private dune walk over, internet, & washer & dryer

View is amazing!

The location is what you see is what you get. Take the walk way to the beach or you can enjoy the view from the spacious covered back deck. The view of the beach and location is amazing. This is a private community and access to the beach seems to be limited to owners and guests which made us feel like we had the beach to ourselves, a change from OB and GS which is where we typically stay. WIFI and cell reception is hit and miss, but that has little to do with the house just an FYI for future guests. The house needs TLC. As stated in previous post, lights bulbs are missing in bedrooms upstairs and front exterior lighting is poor so be careful if your walking around the front of the house or up the front stairs, bring a flashlight. The exterior doors do not like to shut closed especially the front door and when they do there are gaps in the door frames. The kitchen was stocked with the essentials, but if you plan on cooking large meals plan ahead. The bathrooms were clean and the large soaking tub in the master bed room was a nice surprise. During our stay the upstairs AC went out. For the last three days of our trip the upstairs portion of the house was unusable and the downstairs unit did everything it could to help compensate for the excess heat. VACASA Management were easy to work with and responsive during our stay but post check out we found it difficult. They had an HVAC company on site the first day of the outage and they ultimately ended up replacing the upstairs unit on the last day of our vacation which was welcomed, but an inconvenience, it took over 12 hours to replace. Overall our visit to the island was exactly what we wanted, unplugged, relaxing and memorable. The house needs some work, but for being a rental it worked.

The beach was a lot of fun dauphin Island Alabama has always been our favorite spot to go .

Great location and access to the beach! House could definitely use some tlc. But overall a great stay.

Right on the beach with private boardwalk. Unbeatable views of the Gulf. Not a luxurious stay. Very dated, furniture dirty, washer didn't work, some outlets/lights non-functional, deficient kitchen, badly needs a paint job, kinda sterile. If it weren't for the location it would be fewer stars.
