Sea Dog Review

Property was very dirty upon arrival-towels not folded, dirty bedding wadded up in closets, dog and human hair everywhere (washing machine and dryer covered in dog hair), dust all over lamp shades and fan chains. Boardwalk manager did come to property and take dirty bedding/towels and wipe out master bath and vanity in guest room. We did have to go and buy our own cleaning supplies and do more cleaning ourselves. Cookware needed to be rinsed or washed before using. Bath rugs were filthy and had to be washed. Our property was the only yard not mowed around us, which seemed to lead to lots of mosquitos. Lots of lightbulbs out or not working in fans and lamps. House was definitely in need of some updating, especially master bath and guest bedroom. Keep in mind the “third bedroom” is more of a sitting room with a very hard daybed/couch (they do provide two cots). Television in second bedroom didn’t work. We love Dauphin Island and the beaches, but we will not stay at this property again.

Quiet Vacation

Dauphin Island is very quiet and peaceful. The house is well kept and comfortable. Our family of 4 and dog had plenty of space to spread out. Please note that the walk to the beach is the length of 2 city blocks, so be prepared to haul your stuff a bit. Overall a nice place to visit with friendly people.

Perfect getaway

This property is a perfect place for a stay in DI. The house is across the street from a public path up the beach. Slow and steady wins the race, so be patient as you walk through the sandy path with your gear. The house is comfortable and stocked with basics in the kitchen. I’ll be back!

Great beach trip!

We came down with another couple from Atlanta. We were so delighted with the large deck- we spent every morning and evening on the deck looking at the gulf. It is a short walk (less than 5 mins) to a beautiful remote beach. We had breakfast from lighthouse bakery and picked up fresh seafood from skinners. It was the perfect low key trip. We will be back!

Just okay is all I can say

The house itself was nice but not within walking distance to the beach as stated unless you enjoy a half mile hike in the sand. During check in I was told the cable company should be there to fix the cable. We ended up not having any tv during our entire stay, which wasn’t a huge issue but would have been nice to watch tv in the evening before bed. Also, as soon as we arrived at the house a repair man came to check the A/C unit in the middle bedroom which was leaking all over the carpet, making it completely saturated in one corner of the room. The realty company knew about these problems and I feel like they could have given us a different unit comparable to the one I paid for, where everything was in proper working order.

Spring get away

We enjoyed our stay on Dquphin Island as it was a quiet relaxing location.. We were very disappointed in the property. Positive was the nice view and gated deck. My small dog enjoyed the gulf waters. What once was a nicely outfitted & decorated home needs major renovations. Everything was worn and showing its age. Leather chair was taped up and not allof the fans and lights worked.. There was an over abundance of decor that cluttered the house. Obviously the owner has not been there in awhile as it it is dirty and needs a deep cleaning. Air ducts, fans etc were full of greasy dirt. Thankfully I had some cleaning supplies with me. I bought scented candles and baking soda to help eliminate the over all fried seafood smell. I am glad my grandchildren were unable to come as I would not want them playing on the floor. I am sure it is difficult renting out your house as others do not take care of it as the owners would. For the price I think it was not worth it - the pictures were misleading. We did call the management company for assistance as the garbage can blew away in a big storm. They said they would take care of it but never did.

It's an awesome and friendly small island.

The beach is not over crowded. We had to evacuate for Hurricane Delta so we did not get to stay long enough. We have already decided to go back . The locals are very friendly. Great time overall with places to stay.

Pros: great price, spacious living area, kitchen had adequate storage, place was clean. Lots of linen and kitchen utensils. plenty of parking. Cons: Dryer is defective, 40% of light bulbs burned out including the fridge, very dark, Internet is useless slow as a turtle, lights outside were hanging by the wire on porch, longer walk to beach than anticipated.

Family Vacation

This is a wonderful home that has a lot of room (4 adults and 1 child). It is nice to find a property to rent that I can take my large dogs (Mastiff and Collie). Even with the COVID restrictions there is a lot to do on the island and the house is centrally located with access to the bay and gulf. We will defiantly book another stay!

Nice place. Clean and comfortable. Lots of clean towels. I wish there was an outdoor shower or at least a platform to stand on when hosing off under the house. I don’t love being on Bienville but as a cyclist I enjoyed the convenience. I would rent this property again.
