Dauphin Island vacation rentals

This condo was in a cool little complex that was very clean and very peaceful. Even during peak times one of the pools was empty or close to it. The staff were nice and all the people there pretty laid back. The walk was a little bit further than "right on the beach" as we usually do but only but a minute or two. The view was on the way and definitely not long enough to downgrade the experience. Just keep that in mind if you're carrying a bunch of stuff. The beach was very spacious and unlike Destin, Panama City, Ormand, or Gulf Shores you could easily get chairs right on the beach with no one within 10 feet of you. We did have problems with the rental chairs company as they messed up our week long order almost every day. They also setup late but did pick up late too. The condo itself was very clean. No sand, mold, bugs, or gross things encountered. The condo is only 1 1/2 bath just to make sure people don't think it is two full baths. It was bigger than expected but still a one family condo with everything you need to get started relaxin' on the beach.

While the temperatures were only in the upper 60’s during our mid-November week, the heated pool was fantastic and we enjoyed it each day. Sonny Side is a very nice 4-bedroom home with a private pool and beautiful views of both sunrise and sunset over the Gulf. We particularly enjoyed spotting dolphins from the deck — a number of them were frolicking, generally around sunrise through mid morning. We’ve stayed at a number of rental homes throughout the country — Sonny Side ranks right at the top!

The rooms are absolutely beautiful well maintained and located in a very convenient part of the island. The only complaint we had with our stay is it wasn’t long enough. Highly recommended this to anyone looking for a quiet comfortable beach vacation.

We had an amazing vacation at this property. It was perfect for our group of eight adults, offering plenty of space to relax together and still enjoy privacy when we wanted it. The living room and dining area had more than enough comfortable seating for everyone, and we especially loved spending time on the outdoor deck — the view of the Gulf of Mexico was absolutely stunning. Each bedroom was spacious and comfortable, and having a private bathroom for every room was a huge plus. It made getting ready so much easier for a large group. The heated pool was a favorite spot, and the beach was just a walk down a short trail. We loved being able to go from poolside lounging to sandy toes in minutes. The hosts also provided thoughtful amenities like coffee and tea, which made mornings easy and enjoyable. On top of that, the host was extremely responsive to all of our questions, which made the entire stay feel smooth and well cared for. Overall, this home had everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Highly recommend for groups looking for comfort, convenience, and beautiful views.

This property was so close to the water and in the beautiful West End area. House had many updates and lots of "foot washing" stations to avoid so much tracking in of the sand. Love the big decks and there were lots of seating areas. Would definitely return!

If you are looking for a place to spend time with your children, extended family members, friends, or new acquaintances; "Point Breeze" is the perfect House. There are so many amenities I will list just a few to make awesome memories: The location of Point Breeze is perfect for any type of activities you may want to do. The sunrises are great from the outdoor TV Pit, a very comfortable outdoor living space and also great for sleeping outside. The west side of the deck has a perfect area for Dinners or snacks and watching the sunset everyday. The South deck has a full view of the Gulf and the North deck has a wonderful view of the Sound. All the decks have a lot of comfortable seating and lounge chairs. I cannot say enough about the inside of the house. Everything is clean, with all kinds of seating for a large family, or just a couple. The kitchen is well stocked for any type of cooking in doors or outside. There are 2 charcoal grills furnished. There are even beach towels, beach toys, boogie boards, 2 hammocks, swings, and khakis. This house is convenient to all the shops on the island and restaurants. We fished from the dock every night and caught a lot of great fish. Awesome House. I could go on and on because we stayed there 3 weeks and i would go back tomorrow.

Never been to DI before. Loved our stay, but wish I knew a few things before we booked. First of all, our condo was possibly one of the nicest we've ever stayed in. So there's that. 1) view faces the gulf. The horizon is dotted with oil rigs and platforms. Constant freight traffic to them. And at night they are all lit up. No noise. But always there. 2) water is NOT crystal blue clear and never will be. It's due to the location of surrounding waterways. Its VERY clean. But not clear. 3) no place to walk to to get beer and ice. Got to drive. Things like deli meats, eggs and such are like a 15 minute drive. 4) food options are few. And decent at best. Islanders and The Carraige were our favorites. 5) the walk to the beach is a trek. Like for real a quarter mile-ish and we were ON the water. 6) between the gulf and condo are overflow ponds from rain and the ocean. You get to walk through these to get to the beach. Most are greenish standing water. And the mosquitos at night are insane. 6) animal and birdlife were abundant and amazing to see. Plenty of dolphin sightings. All kinds of birds and crabs. 7) we hit the beach early and were the only ones within earshot until lunch most days. 8) pools were clean and quiet, we were often the only ones there. No music. No partying. By the end of the trip we settled in and accepted the minor drawbacks as part of the location's charm. The appeal of the quiet, peaceful atmosphere overshadowed all of them. No traffic. No noise pollution. But we just didn't know before we went. It's not ideal for everybody. Most want to be in a happening place and wait hours for a table in overpriced chain restaurants. And battle for a spot on a crowded beach. That is not a relaxing way for us to spend our time or money on our vacation. We found little gems during our stay and really enjoyed our time there.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Jennifer’s Airbnb on Dauphin Island! Our group was in town competing in the USTA National Tennis Championships in Mobile, and this home was the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy time together after long days of competition. The accommodations were comfortable, the peaceful island setting was fantastic, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. Jennifer was an outstanding host, and we truly appreciated her hospitality. Our tennis team ended up finishing second in the nation, making this an especially memorable trip, and having such a great place to stay made the experience even better. We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable stay. We would absolutely return and enthusiastically recommend Jennifer's Airbnb to anyone visiting Dauphin Island. Five stars all the way!
