About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Gulf Shores Getaway w/Large Pool – 1 Mile to the Beach!

You will love this ground-floor condo the minute you walk in the door! Dolphin Villas is located just over 1 mile from the beautiful beaches of Gulf Shores and the public beach access. Perfect for a family vacation, couples’ getaway, or someone that wants peace and quiet time by themselves. "Our Sweet Home in Alabama” feels like your home away from home.

The kitchen has everything you need if you would like to cook. All appliances are stainless steel, and the laundry room is equipped with a full-size washer & dryer. The pool is located across the parking lot just a short walk from the condo. There are chairs and tables there for your use.

Our home is smoke-free, however, there is an ashtray provided on the back porch for those who smoke. Wal-mart is just 2 blocks away!! Hwy 59, which leads to the beach, is just one block away and offers a plethora of things for you to do which includes lots of restaurants & shopping.

Our rates are lower than most hotels in the area so why would you stay in a small hotel room when you can have a 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo with all the conveniences of home? Try our Dolphin Villa…we are sure you will like it! Thank you again for considering us for your vacation destination.
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

The property was in a convenient location with 3 grocery stores in close proximity. The property itself was clean and in good condition and nicely decorated. The bed and pillows were comfortable. It was a very quiet neighborhood. Parking was right in front of the unit. Other than the toaster being past it's prime and a couple more hand towels, there was nothing else that comes to mind to improve upon. The hosts communicated everything needed on a timely basis.
