Great house and great location close to the sound and beach. Was given the incorrect wifi password and network and contact stopped responding. I had to use hotspot to get the TV to work. Also, the propane ran out so had to purchase a refill (30). Other than those 2 things, had a great time!
On arrival we were greeted by text from Jen and was so friendly. She told us everything we needed to know. The property was very clean and more than expected being a bay front home I was expecting sand when walking barefoot in home (as I have before at other properties) noticing no sand or dirty feet. The bed was super comfortable. We only used the main floor bedroom and bathroom as we were only a couple so no feedback of upstairs other than how clean and welcoming it looked. The kitchen was stocked with all we needed. I liked they had a brewing coffee pot and a Keurig that was very considerate. The air units up and down worked great. The windows in the home were very clean to be waterfront I was very pleased. The one thing I would recommend not a complaint is having more sitting chairs on each deck up and down front and back and more than anything having a few loungers. I was disappointed I had no way to “layout” on the decks. The chairs upstairs were only 2 plastic rockers on waterside only nothing on gulf side upstairs and main deck only had 2 Adirondack chairs which are hard to get out of for some. But that is just a preference not a necessity. We would recommend this property.
The house was very spacious and clean. Plenty room inside, and the decks. Parking and location very convenient to beach. Couldn't have picked a better home!
Vacasa was great because the check-in and check-out process was stress free allowing time to simply enjoy the vacation. The whole experience was no stress. Vacasa makes it easy.
The house was wonderful and the location was excellent. Tons of room for our family. Only thing i would change is to add towel racks in the main bathroom. Had a wonderful time. Would definitely recommend.
When our original vacation plans got canceled we were decided to try something other than a condo. With it being beachfront it was hard to believe we were the only ones on the beach during the week. The ocean side was so clean and a very easy short walk. The house was beautiful and met all our needs. Nice to have 3 bathrooms as our kids seem to be always in the bathroom. Spent most of our time sitting on the porch looking at the bay, birdwatching and enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Great place to unplug from the world.
This rental was well kept with all the amenities needed. I would recommend shopping before getting on the island during the off season. It was a little difficult to locate restaurants open (breakfast was not available at all due to restaurant closure) and the grocery store is small. No knock to the property which was great!
Three weeks of relaxation.
Not the warm and sunny weather we were looking for but better than other places we would have gone. The house is a little dated but clean comfortable.
Place was very pleasant for myself and young adult daughters. Great looking house, nice layout, good flooring, good bedsheets! Loved the balconies and wrap around porches. Very peaceful location. The only things to make this house better: a new refrigerator and a new massive dining table. Thanks for allowing for a great tranquil vacation, we will be back!

This is a great place. It faces the bay with gulf views from the many decks. Loved the sunset views from the bay side! It was nice to have room for our whole family, including the doggo. The kitchen was well equipped, including a Keurig. I would not hesitate to stay here again. The one suggestion I would make is to have some sort of shelving, or a small cabinet in the bathrooms as there is no place to store toiletries.

We appreciate you letting us know there is room for improvement, and we will pass your comments on to our local operations manager for consideration. We hope to have another chance to impress you in the future.
We had a wonderful time at the Malibu beach house - it was very comfortable and spacious and clean! Extra bonus to be on the bay where our dog could frolic in the water. The location is fantastic, steps to the beach. Our only issue was with the slow Wi-Fi (my husband had to work a couple days) and having to use our hot spot. Other than that everything went smoothly.

We will follow up with the appropriate parties regarding your experience to discuss preventative measures and ensure the continued enjoyment of our future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to better impress you in the future!
The location of the house is great. House is showing signs of age though especially on the deck.
Overall good experience for week with family. Plenty of dishes. House shows signs of aging especially out on deck. Some rails loose so watch kids/animals. Overall beautiful view and private beach access on bay side. Only 2 blocks to gulf side
The check-in was smooth, and was even offered early check-in. WiFi access was terrible, and apparently has been an issue over time according to previous reviews. But…having our teen and young adult kids unplug for the weekend was a plus. The outside could use a a fresh coat of paint, but the inside was niiiice! The fridge should be updated as well. Plenty of supplies, gorgeous views, wrap around balcony’s, I’d definitely stay again. We fished on the beach in calm waters (3ft from the beach to about 300 yards out) behind the house. Then went out the front door, across the street to swim in the gulf.
Really enjoyed our stay overall. Foosball table was broken so that was a bummer since it was one of the reasons we picked it. We also couldn’t figure out how to get the satellite cable to work but maybe that was just an operator error. Would stay again though.

Tiffany, thank you for sharing your experience, we're pleased you enjoyed your stay! That said, we apologize for the foosball table not working and our local manager assured us that maintenance has been scheduled to repair it. We enjoyed having you as our guest and hope to host you again.
Our stay was great for the most part. The place was clean other than occasional sand but we were at the beach so it was expected. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were fully stocked with towels and toilet paper! We never had a good enough internet connection to get the tv to work which sucked when it was raining and at night as we were winding down. The place is more dated than the pictures show. Couches and pillows stained and ripped. The views of the Bay were amazing! If you stay here, make sure you bring water shoes if you plan on getting in the bay because it is very rocky and will cut your feet. The Gulf side is a quick drive or shortish walk. It was beautiful! Overall our trip was great and memories were made!
This home is beautiful, spacious,plenty of room porch space, couple of issues the vacuum cleaner didn’t work, but my biggest complaint was the roaches in the kitchen, they need to fumigate it badly, they were on top of refrigerator , in all the drawers. Has to keep food in fridge. So once that figure out this place is perfect! We had a great time!

Bay house Dauphin Island
Overall good experience, house is on the bay side with quiet a distance from the water. Good location from the beach by short drive or by golf cart. Clean house overall except for the small and many roaches in kitchen which we tried spraying for and informing management company but didn’t get a response. Delays in communication with vacasa company who mange the property. Not as efficient as VRBO direct.
The house was great. Of course, rooms were smaller than appeared in photo, but I know the photographers are good at that, still quite sufficient. We had been alerted to bugs and almost offered an emergency house, but were not offered it after talking to the agent. Bugs were minimal. The AC continuously set its own temperature, fortunately it was always colder. Tried to leave it on 75 when we departed, probably didn't hold. Overall it was a great experience and I will use VACASA again in the future.
