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.

Nicely appointed condo
We enjoyed the quiet Condo. The Gulf was not far at all. Just a short walk right out of the main floor of the building. Everything we needed was in the Condo. We hope to come back and stay longer.

Dauphin Island Time
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).

Great host with the right amount of communication. Nicely decorated condo with a short walk to the beach. Pools are heated and not very busy. The beach was clean and void of weeds and smells, just beautiful soft sand. We can't wait to book a return trip to this place.
We enjoyed our stay so much! Great food on the island; beach was beautiful; amazing sunsets. Condo was excellent!
