About this property

Happy Joy is a unique condo that is nestled right on the beach in Dauphin Island, Alabama. We are located on the East end of the island which is higher elevation and is protected from flooding! Yeah!

Enjoy family and friends in the great room! Featuring a very spacious kitchen, dining area, and living room with beautiful leather recliners and couch (with USB charging ports and automatic reclining) and smart TV. Relax in the Sun Room by the floor-to-ceiling windows on the daybed and trundle.

The master bedroom features a very comfortable king-size bed with an en-suite bath and an adjoining space we call the “Happy Room” that has a daybed and trundle, small desk and printer, and books, games, puzzles, etc.

The second bedroom has a super comfortable queen bed with the second bathroom across the hall and a fun Flamingo theme!

We also are sharing our beach wagon, chairs, beach toys, and small charcoal grill for your convenience! We want to make “Happy Joy” your home away from home!

Walk right out the door and within 2 minutes (we timed it) you will be standing in the beach! You will pass the outdoor shower and pool as you make your way to the quiet, gorgeous white sandy beach!

Another unique feature is there are NO stairs to climb in or out of the condo! The only time you will see steps is when you go down the three steps on the boardwalk that lead to the sand!

Our family just purchased this condo as a “bucket list” Dream of mine. We have new furniture throughout and everything you need to have a fun and relaxing vacation! We know you will feel Happy at “Happy Joy”!

Beautiful Condo in great location!

We absolutely loved our stay at Happy Joy. We were traveling with our 3 children, ages 10, 10 and 12. The proximity to the beach was perfect. We walked about 2 miles down the beach in one direction. We fished 100 yards from the condo, we rented bikes and biked to the bird sanctuary and to the Fort and visited the aquarium. The owners thought of every amenity to make our stay amazing. We will definitely be back!

Enjoyable

The place was clean and comfortable. No complaints except that I was disappointed in the location and distance from the beach. But in all, the stay was very enjoyable.
