Great House!!

This is a great house! The online pics are accurate but the house feels more spacious in person. The kitchen is well equipped and it was nice to sit on the back deck enjoying cocktails. It was nice being close to the ferry and the beach on that side of the island. Nicole was very responsive to my questions. We would stay here again!

Responsive Host & Great Location

Our recent stay at Here Comes the Sun on Dauphin Island was wonderful! The house was exactly as described in the listing, and the location was fantastic.We did encounter a minor issue with ants, which is common in certain areas, but our host, Noelle, was incredibly responsive and proactive in resolving it. She had an exterminator out to the property very quickly, which we greatly appreciated.Communication with Noelle was good, and she was very attentive when it came to addressing the ant situation. We highly recommend Here Comes the Sun for a great getaway!

Family Beach Vacation

We had a wonderful time in Dauphin Island and on the property. It was in our preferred east end, but an easy drive to the west end, and the house was spotless and big, we could all spread out and enjoy ourselves. The two televisions were great, and the kids loved that the dog could come. If I had to nitpick I would only say that the stopper didn’t fit in the tub, and I didn’t really care for the louvred doors, it was loud for someone that went to bed before the televisions were turned off. But overall it was fantastic, very very clean, plenty of room for all 6 of us and the dog, and I would definitely stay here again.

Family Getaway

We really enjoyed our time on the island and having this cozy condo during our stay. Its a very quiet neighborhood. The condo was clean and the bedrooms felt fresh. Our running joke became "the bed trapped us." They are very comfortable, and uf someone sat down, they were gonna fall asleep quickly. We were provided enough laundry pods to keep up with all the laundry during the week. I only had to reach out to the host just once, but she was very quick to get back with us.

Clean and Wonderful Beach House!

I can tell the host put a lot of effort into her home. The house is very clean and super cute with a sunshine theme. The beds were very comfortable with nice sheets. The rooms were very tastefully decorated and the house had everything I needed. I wish they could come decorate my house! The location is great on the east side of the island with quiet neighbors and I felt safe the whole time. There is plenty of parking. Everything was easy- from check in, the actual stay, and any questions I had were very quickly answered and remedied. The host and crew went above and beyond to make sure everything was comfortable for me and I really appreciate it. I went by myself for a special birthday trip, but if you had an entire family, this would also be a great place to stay. Thank you very much! I would love to stay here again in the future.

Relative to Other Awesome Vrbo Stays

Inside of home was as described. It was clean, stocked with necessities and perfect for our family and our stay. The host and her team responded quickly to answer initial questions/requests that I submitted via text and phone call. The outside of the home, the front stairs and some of the decking was in need of attention and repair in some places. There was a foul smell outside that led us to standing dirty water that was coming from under the house. It looked as if some sand had been dumped over it. The description of location of the home indicated a 7 minute walk to the beach. We took that 7 minute walk which led us to the beach but which was also a gated community where only occupants living or staying there had beach access, leaving us puzzled to say the least.
