Amazing place to stay! Had everything that we needed. Alan was very wonderful and nice to work with! We will be booking with him again for our next visit to Dauphin Island!
This place was great! Perfect for our family of 8. It was close to the beach and we could see all of the sights on Dauphin Island. Highly recommend this place.
The entire experience was amazing! We loved everything about this house- the location, how nice it is and even the small details. We will definitely be back!
Attractive new beach house in quiet, yet convenient area of Dauphin Island. Great decor and all the amenities provided. I'm in love with the showerhead in the master bathroom!! Great street for walking the dog. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again.
This house has everything you need. Beautiful new build and very accessible to the whole island. Alan goes above and beyond to make sure you have what you need for your stay. We’ll definitely be back!
Such a cozy place to stay while on the Island. There are restaurants that are within walking distance and we loved using the bicycles to ride to the beach. The kids had fun with the loft area. We broke in the kitchen appliances and cooked up a delicious birthday feast. Alan, the host, was the greatest! He has thought of everything and when we needed him, he was easy to get a hold of. Definitely recommend spending time at Blue Wahoo.
The Blue Wahoo as it's referred to by the owner Mr. Duncan is a wonderful place to stay on Dauphin Island. It is a very quiet location if your looking for peace and quite away from the hustle and bustle of life. The cottage is conveniently located within walking distance of restaurant and shopping. If you need to go a bit further Mr. Duncan does supply a couple nice beach cruiser bikes, so no need to drive your vehicle. Overall I would give this cottage 10 stars and will be staying here when available during our visits to Dauphin Island.
Alan's place was just as described. It is not only newly constructed, if is very well designed. Spacious kitchen and a bathroom for each bedroom. Nice deck and a quiet street. Especially appreciated the covered parking and ability to bring our dog. Although rental prices on the island are high this time of year, we were attracted to begin with by the lower than average rate. And it is always nice when the host is quick to respond to any questions or requests, which Alan did every time.

I am a Residential Designer by trade. I have designed numerous houses on the Island, Gulf Shores, Orange Beach and surrounding areas. I hand a hands on part during the build of the house and enjoyed it. I want to share it with you, your family and friends. I enjoy fishing, traveling and camping with my family.
