Walking distance to the beach

Best location to beach access. The beach restoration is wonderful. I was here a little over a year ago, and you couldn't walk to the east end from here. I always enjoy my stay on DAUPHIN ISLAND.

Nice

Property was as described and clean. The property was great enjoyed our stay. The island however is misleading not a lot to do unless the weapons just right make sure you make reservations for dinner or Plano. Going off the island every night. Also don’t believe the websites most places were closed or had different hours even if they said open on website.

Perfect 2Bed/2.5Ba for our Family Vacay

We loved the Sandcastle Condos! Great location- in relation to nearby beaches and restaurants in this gated community! Our unit did have a couple flights of stairs but luckily had safety gates available for us that helped with child safety. (But be careful wearing socks because they are slippery!) We loved being able to walk to the complex pools and down to the nearby beach. This was our first trip to DI, and we enjoyed it as a simple but fun family vacation. The ACP staff communicated well with us, and check-in and check-out were easy! Highly recommend!
