Horrible management company

A/C wasn’t working upon arrival and not fixed before checkout. Also had problems with shower and dishwasher. Management company even lied via text that they had sent a service person early in our stay. Service person can late in last day and merely added Freon to A/C unit while proceeding to reveal that “Vacasa” (property management company) is the “worst on the island”. This is sad because the property has potential ans the island itself doesn’t have a bad location. If I were the property owner, u would be mortified by Vacasa.

Waterfront Beach House

Beautiful home with a great view of the ocean! We loved the location, the hot tub and the slider door in the living room. A few things to be aware of is there is very minimal amount of supplies and the spot with the rotting floor is dangerous. We had to move furniture over the area so no one would step on it.

General house repairs needed

I would not recommend the house be let again until owners do some maintenance. Walkin shower door leaks and has black mold starting. Flooring in dinning area very weak, dips and sinks as you walk over it heading in to access to west side bedrooms. Flooring in other areas mushy. Whole house sways in high wind.

Had good time

We had good time staying in this property. The house was clean as in the kitchen and bathrooms are cleaned good but the floors are very sandy. We had to clean it right away. Overall its a good property and better than the pictures actually.

Nicely updated

We enjoyed our stay on Dauphin Island. The interior of the house has been nicely updated and is very comfortable and cozy. I loved that it was a short walk to the West beach where the sunsets were amazing. The only negatives were that there was apparently some remodeling on the exterior and we found lots of nails in the sand where we were supposed to park. Also the dining table on the deck is rusted through and should be replaced.

Amazing Dauphin Island

Beachy Keen - We loved our 4 berm 2 bath house on the West End Lagoon side of the island, but with an easy walk or drive to the public swimming or across the road to the gulf. Next time we are going to try closer to town that was only 3.9 miles away.

COVID getaway

This was a perfect location to enjoy the beach while avoiding crowded areas. We rented kayaks and enjoyed sunsets & sunrises on the bay side, as well as swimming in the surf on the gulf side. Enjoyed lots of aquatic wildlife sitings. The flooring in the home is a little warped, which I worried could trip my in-laws, but everything was very clean and kept up well. We’d definitely visit again!

Beachy Keen

The property location was fantastic but the house itself needs work. The front door would not stay closed unless it was deadbolted, one of the bathroom doors would lock you in unless you left it cracked, the floors had not been properly cleaned & had soft spots through out. It also was very empty of home décor. It appeared that the owners had removed a lot of items to get ready for an upcoming sell. Hopefully the new owners will fix all the issues.

Total Privacy and Escape!

Great location- perfect for achieving privacy and solitude especially during these times of social distancing! The place had everything we needed to enjoy our getaway, cook meals, and space for our family. The house is a bit outdated with a few upgrades needed, however nothing that we weren’t able to look past and enjoy our getaway!
