Great location
Our family stayed in 101. It was conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood. Property was mostly as described. We didn’t spend much time at the property because we were out and about sightseeing. We found the lack of luggage racks or dressers in the bedrooms to be an inconvenience when trying to get to your things. The bathroom had pink-colored mold around the tub tiles closest to the faucet, along with some long hair from a previous guest. We did not ask for attention to this as it would’ve been more of an inconvenience to deal with. We overlooked it. The floors are also unlevel and prevent the bedroom door from closing from the main living area for privacy. The hinge is almost off from past use trying to close the door. Overall, it was a good value and we would consider staying again.

Quick Getaway
Everything in the reviews was accurate. The sand dunes were really cool but be careful of the stickers. Don't take the dog in the dunes because of the stickers. The beaches were a very convenient drive from the condo. I appreciated the quick responses from the property manager. Yes, we would stay there again.

Perfect Getaway
We had a 4 day 3 night stay in the unit above this. The day of our arrival, the property manager called to say that the unit were had booked, had a broken couch and would be willing to go to the unit above. After assuring us it was very similar we agreed. It was turned out great. The condo was clean and well appointed. There were smart TV’s that we were able to use logged into our own Netflix, Hulu, etc… The central location of the condo left us with easy access to wherever we wanted to go. The only cons, but not that big of a deal, were the bean bags in the 2nd bedroom were missing a lot of of filling and there was no garbage disposal. Again, those were not deal breakers. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and plan to be back! dunes above weee beautiful.

The property was nicely decorated, clean and stocked with everything we needed. Liked being able to sit on the back deck. Very nice place to take your dog and the people on Dauphin Island were very friendly. The walk to the beach was a challenge. Other than that it was a great trip!

Perfect!
Very easy check in. Everything was perfect with exception of water pressure in shower. Adequate enough until other guests arrived then very low pressure but not a desl breker. Everything else made up for it. Comfy housing including bed. Nice furnishings. Nicely equipped kitchen. Clean and very comfortable. Close to everything including kitchen. Beaches were beautiful! Definitely would stay again.

Great time on Dauphin Island
Great location and dog friendly. We were close to the beach and having our two dogs with us just made the vacation. Our close friends rented two of the other units so our big crowd got to enjoy a great week together. We spent time at the beach with our pets, went deep sea fishing and dined at the local restaurants. Tourist attractions were the ferry boat ride, the forts guarding Mobile Bay, the bird sanctuary and the local artists. The water pressure was low at times but certainly not a deal breaker. Front porch visiting and late night card playing rounded out our trip. Very much recommend this stay.

The property was great. Very quiet and peaceful which is just what we needed. Only issue is I assumed the beach was right outside in the back yard but it wasn’t.

Great Low-key Getaway for a Family of 5
Great experience here! Our family had never been to Dauphin Island, or even a beach before, and this was a great place to stay for our first experience. While not within easy walking distance of a beach, it's centrally located between the island's public beaches. It's also close to, but just far enough away from the main road that it feels secluded. The furnishings are nice and beds are comfy. Our 3 kiddos shared the fullsize bunk bed. The bunk bed was abit wobbly and I had to grab a tool to tighten up the hex bolts to feel confident in them climbing around on it. We enjoyed coming back from the beach to ice cold A/C and relaxing on the couch or playing games together. And the soundproofing is great. We barely heard our upstairs neighbors, and our first night it stormed pretty hard and we didn't hear a sound. Water pressure is pretty low and was a bit of an issue and bummer, but we made it work. I could see that being a deal breaker for some, though. The kitchen is nice, though wasn't stocked with all the essentials we'd wanted (example: didn't find a baking sheet for frozen pizzas and had to use foil). The wrap around porch is nice, too! Overall it was a great stay for us. Not fancy or glitzy, but just nice and functional. Will consider staying again if we visit Dauphin Island in the future!
