This was by far the prettiest unit in the whole Inn out of all the listings I viewed and felt much more updated. The decor is so lovely and comfortable, and everything felt clean (other than the top rack of the dishwasher struggles). And you can’t beat that ocean view. We stayed in the fall, so I don’t know what it would be like in peak times, but it was very quiet and peaceful. The beach access is amazing. The pools are beautiful, although it wasn’t warm enough outside for us to try them out. Loved being up on that floor and was grateful for the elevator and rolling carts to get luggage up and down. Had everything we needed in the kitchen except food, and it’s so much nicer staying in a place like this rather than a hotel where you can’t fix much of your own stuff or truly relax. The TV was a bit difficult to figure out, but we only used it a bit. We slept comfortably every night and felt safe and clean, with access to whatever we needed there or nearby. Greer’s Market about 20 min away was quaint and ideal for the few things we needed. Didn’t try out any local restaurants this trip, but maybe next time. This was also our first Dauphin Island experience, and it’s really a great location. We loved the bird sanctuary and Indian Shell Mounds Park, although we couldn’t find where to access the actual mounds. Otherwise, we hung out on the beach and relaxed inside, which was perfect.
We just loved this unit and very much plan to return next year. It feels like someone cares about this place…that might sound silly having never met the owners, but we felt it. Very happy we chose to stay there and wish we’d booked one extra day.
