About this property
Beachfront Bliss with Spacious Comfort & Direct Access - Sand Bottoms
Step into Sandy Bottoms, a stunning Gulf-front beach house where the waves roll in right beneath your feet and the sugar-white sand is just steps from your door! This four-bedroom, three-bath retreat on Dauphin Island’s West End is the perfect blend of comfort, relaxation, and unbeatable beachfront access.
Wake up to the sound of the surf, sip your morning coffee on the expansive Gulf-front deck, and soak in panoramic views of the ocean from both covered and uncovered seating areas. Prefer a quieter moment? The covered Sound-facing deck offers a peaceful retreat with a different perspective of the island’s beauty.
Inside, the open-concept living area is designed for laid-back luxury, with plenty of space for family and friends to gather. The L-shaped kitchen is thoughtfully designed for both function and style, featuring a spacious L-shaped island that expands the available countertop space while also serving as a raised dining area with seating for up to six guests. This inviting setup makes it easy to prep meals, serve snacks, and enjoy casual dining while still taking in the breathtaking beachfront views.
Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements:
• SW Gulf-Front Master Bedroom – King bed, TV, closet, window with Gulf view, and a private bathroom with a shower/tub combo.
• SE Gulf View Bedroom Suite – Queen bed, full-over-twin bunk bed, Gulf-view window, TV, closet, and a private bathroom.
• NW Bedroom – Queen bed, two twin beds, TV, and closet.
• NE Bunkroom – Two full-over-full bunk beds, TV, and closet.
In addition to the two private en-suite bathrooms, the home features a centrally located common bathroom on the west side. This shared bathroom provides convenient access for guests staying in the NW bedroom and bunkroom, making it easy for everyone to rinse off after a day at the beach.
With direct access to the Gulf, you can step onto the sand right from your deck, collect seashells along the shore, fish from the beach, or take a deep-sea charter for an unforgettable adventure. The island is perfect for exploring by bike, visiting the nearby Audubon Sanctuary, or indulging in fresh seafood at local restaurants. Whether you're watching the waves roll in, soaking up the sun, or enjoying the island’s small-town charm, Sandy Bottoms delivers the ultimate beachfront experience.
As with all of our Dauphin Island Beach Rentals, all linens and towels are provided, WIFI, along with a fully-outfitted kitchen. There will be a starter pack of toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags; please plan on bringing more for day 2 ;). A great beach vacation is waiting on you!
