Dauphin Island beach house
Beautifully decorated with a well stocked kitchen. We had issues with cleanliness and our cleaning fee was refunded. The owner said there had been problems with her cleaning crew in the past. Also, we thought we could walk to the end of the street to access the beach, not so. We had to walk across the yard of the home across the street. The walk was longer. The sand was so hot we had to wear shoes on the way back. The owner was very attentive and responsive. We did appreciate this!

In sun
Property was great. Not enough detail given in the listing about items provided - coffee maker, grill etc. Distance to the beach was difficult but the beach was great when you got there. Instructions for departure need to be consolidated and consistent in all communications. Printed copy in house (older) did not agree with the text/email info sent.

Best vacay ever
Y’all have to know, I was staying in this house for 3 weeks. First week with my sister and then her husband for last night. First week toilet handle broke, was repaired before we went to bed. Second week with best friend and a few more to celebrate her 50th birthday. Third week with my son and his family. Hung out under house while he was grilling. Very nice with concrete under the house. We loved it. Hosts were amazing. Bit of a walk to beach over dunes, but who doesn’t need to get more steps each day. It was a laid back 3 weeks for me. I will probably do it again.

Finally did it
First week of three in this well maintained house. Nicely decorated with comfy beds. The kitchen is well stocked. More than enough to cook or not. Nice deck with plenty seating. Little bit of a walk to beach, but not bad.
