BEACH FRONT GULF SIDE, huge decks and Ocean Views! Newly remodeled, like new!

HOUSE FEATURES:
Three bedroom beach front with ocean views, like new home.  This is the perfect vacation rental, great for families or couples. The interior is spacious with an open concept living area. There's plenty of outdoor space with great views!  Listen to the waves crash in as you fall asleep or take a nap on one the wrap around porch.  Watch the sun set over the west end from the porch or as you walk along the white sandy beach.

This is a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath house on Dauphin Island which sleeps 8.  Enjoy the quiet southern lifestyle of one of the last Gulf islands to remain unaffected by commercial tourism.

***GREAT BEACH FOR KIDS***

FURTHER DETAILS:
Plenty of comfortable furnishings and a table that will seat the whole group! Large table that seats 8 plus 3 additional stools at the kitchen bar. Perfect for lunch or snack after time out on the sand.

The house is fully furnished with bedroom TV's and a large TV in the living area. Wi-fi is available.
Outside is a porch that wraps to the east, south amd west.  Ample space offering both covered and uncovered options for lounging.  Views of the Gulf of Mexico as well as views of the Mississippi Sound.  Enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning as you listen to the waves roll in or watch the sun set in the west over the Island.  The back porch offers full sun or shade as it is partially covered.

Only have to cross white sand from the porch to the Gulf of Mexico.  No roads…with views of the Gulf.  This means no putting on shoes or loading the car to head to the beach…it’s all right there!!!

The kitchen comes fully stocked with dishes, utensils, pots, blender, coffee maker, etc… and has a four burner stove with electric oven.  A double sink, dishwasher and refrigerator/freezer w/ icemaker are also featured.

Perfect week at the beach!
Everything about this house is comfortable and inviting! We loved the wrap around deck and enjoyed all sides as well as the variety of patio furniture! The view is a little obstructed but it’s only a few steps to the water so we did not mind at all! This place is perfect and can’t wait to go back!

Fabulous Time with Family
Enjoyed the house although construction going on next door and view was not as great as I had hoped with house in front but we did see a partial ocean view from deck. House had all amenities listed but hot tub -- one site said it had hot tab and outdoor shower and another did not have it listed so a little confusing -- but we enjoyed the house and kitchen was great! Sitting out on deck was wonderful. Would recommend and return

Christmas at the Beach
This home was really beautiful and well equipped. The views and being right there on the beach was fantastic. Even though it was probably the coldest it has been at Dauphin Islancd in a while we still had a wonderful time. Kristen the owner was wonderful. Ww will be returning in 2023. Loved it!!

Nicely renovated
This place is a little gem on the island (we visit the area about every other year). The brand new renovations are quite nice and modern. Super comfy beds. We had no complaints with the house except that I’m short and had trouble reaching the dishes 😆, so a step stool would be helpful. We had an issue with the disposal one day and they fixed it the same day. Great place to stay!

Dauphin Island
House was very clean. Nicely decorated & updated furnishings. Kitchen had everything you need with regular and Kuerig coffee pots. We loved the huge porch. There was plenty of outdoor seating. There is a large amount of toys for kids to use at the beach. There is also plenty of beach chairs to take to the water. Very few people at the beach & we saw dolfins every morning. Pet friendly home and beach. Great location and nice home. We will return soon!

Great vacation!
Very easy process and Kristen was so nice and quick to respond to any questions. House is very spacious and comfortable. A few light bulbs were out, appliances are dated but work fine. Back deck is rough so watch kiddos feet. Other than that it’s a great place, closet full of beach chairs, sand toys and umbrella! Very quiet and no crowds at all so super relaxing!

We had a great time. The only problem was the dryer. It did not work well. It took 2 hrs to dry a load of towels. We washed what we could. I think the dryer needs to be replaced it’s a little old.

Beach week 2023
Wonderful place to stay! Plenty of room for our family of 6 and two of their friends. Everything was easy, especially having the beach only steps from the house. Water and weather was perfect. Tons of beach toys and chairs. Very comfortable beds. Lovely decorating. Wi-Fi on the island was spotty, but who cares when the beach is calling! It was enough to get a little necessary work done and watch movies. Such good memories were made. This was our first time on Dauphin. Grew up going to Sanibel, but due to last year’s storm, our island was not habitable this summer. We would definitely consider Dauphin Island again! Only not so great things were some of the dishes weren’t super clean and on some days folks parked their cars on our road and used our beach access, but that’s not the owners’ fault!

Quiet getaway
Thank you so very much for sharing your lovely home with us! It truly felt like Home... The house itself, is beautiful , clean, quality linens and towels... comfy bedding, and truly well stocked kitchen! The swings under the house are wonderful in the evening while firing up the charcoal grill! We have stayed in many Vrbo homes, and I can absolutely say that this is one of the very best! Easy to see how much love has gone into this home, and Kristen is also a very caring hostess.... quickly responsive to all of my questions as we hadn’t Been to dauphin island before... The outside decks are spacious, views amazing.... saw dolphins every day, even from dining room table! And the stars at night are breathtaking! Perfect quiet getaway! Hoping to return very soon!

Great Vacation! Miss it Already!
This was our first time to Dauphin Island, as we usually go to Florida for our vacation. We were very happy with the island and especially this home. We have a two year old, so proximity to the beach is important to us. At this house, you are right on the beach. There is a house between this one and the water, but it sits on higher stilts, so you can still see the waves from the porch and on the sides around the house (as the photos show). If you're looking for beach front, this property is great. The is bright and decorated nicely. With four adults and one toddler, we had plenty of space, and more than enough beds to sleep in. Communication with the host was very prompt, which is appreciated. In regards to the island, we loved eating at Pirates (both the restaurant and the pizza place), the Lighthouse Bakery (the cheese danishes are the best I've ever had), and Capt'n Snappers (doesn't look like much, but we were pleasantly suprised with the food and ended up being one of our favorite meals.). We would definitely come back to Dauphin Island and stay at this property! Thanks for the great vacation!
