Postcard two-story home on the bay and a short walk to the beach! With Game Room
Welcome to Salty Seahorse, your ultimate Dauphin Island escape where coastal charm meets modern luxury. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by panoramic water views, a private heated pool, and spaces designed for relaxation and fun. This two-story retreat is thoughtfully crafted for families and groups, offering the perfect blend of style, comfort, and unforgettable island living.
Step inside to a light-filled open layout where hardwood floors, seaside décor, and panoramic water views create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream with white cabinetry, high-end stainless appliances, marble-style countertops, and a spacious island—perfect for cooking, entertaining, and gathering together. The dining table with chairs and benches offers plenty of seating, while the living room features a large sectional, comfy chairs, and a flat-screen TV, ideal for movie nights after a day at the beach.
Upstairs, the game room is a guest favorite. Complete with a pool table, mini fridge, wall-mounted TV, and a sitting area, it’s a perfect spot to unwind or cheer on your favorite team. French doors open onto a gulf-facing deck where you can sip your favorite drink while taking in sweeping ocean views.

Salty Seahorse offers an unmatched outdoor experience. The highlight is your private heated pool (pool heat can be turned on by request for $100/day), where you can float under the sun or stargaze at night. The back deck, facing the Sound, is shaded and furnished with dining space—perfect for sunset dinners with a view of the Dauphin Island Bridge. A charcoal grill is available for cookouts, and steps lead down to the quiet Sound-side beach where you can launch kayaks, play in the sand, or simply relax by the water. The Gulf of Mexico is just across the street, giving you easy access to both shoreline experiences.
