Island Time II - Gulf-view Beach House with Heated Pool Pet-friendly

Island Time II is a 4 bedroom beach house on Dauphin Island's West End beach with its own private, heated pool. This Dauphin Island vacation rental is a second row home on the Gulf of Mexico beach and has incredible Gulf views from nearly every room.

The house is placed at an angle to provide optimum views of the Gulf; there is a house ahead on the left and the right, but the house's placement provides a 60-foot wide direct view of the Gulf, only about a hundred feet away! Easily watch family and friends on the beach while relaxing on the shaded deck.

The property owners also upgraded several items during Winter 20/21, including the kitchen and bathroom counters, sinks, faucets, and deck rails. New owners and new improvements, enjoy!

This great Dauphin Island vacation rental books up fast, so please reserve your vacation soon! The pool is heated from October thru April.

Pool Heating Note: Pool temperature can vary during cooler months, as the system relies on outdoor air temperatures. In colder conditions (around 50°F), heating may be less effective or temporarily unavailable (45°F and below), and it can take up to 24 hours to reach the desired temperature when weather allows.

For attractions, visit the Sea Lab, historic Fort Gaines, play a round of golf at the Isle Dauphine gulf-front course, view birds and wildlife & explore secluded beaches at the Audubon Sanctuary, fish on the beach, or at the long gulf-front fishing pier, charter a boat for sightseeing or deep-sea fishing, swim, bike, walk, collect shells, or relax.

Great pet friendly home

We had a great time staying here. The house was very nice. Loved, the deck, pool, view & location. So nice to stay somewhere where dogs are allowed on the beach & everyone we came in contact with obeyed the leash rules & cleaned up after their pets, that's usually hard to find! The location of the house is great, beautiful views from deck and pool and so close to the beach. We would definitely stay here again!!

It looks like it has been remodeled recently, so it looks really nice. Love that the living room and three of the bedrooms has its own sliding glass doors straight to the deck. The pool was great. Contacted for an issue and someone came out immediately to fix it. Service is definitely fast and friendly.

The pool temperature was like bath water. Heavenly! The online pictures were accurate. Being steps from the beach was ideal with little ones. We very much enjoyed our stay and wish we could thank the homeowners for not going cheap on the mattresses. We slept great and made wonderful family memories.

Our stay at this home was the first time in over 15 years we were able to vacation with all 4 kids and 3 of their significant others together! It was a meaningful and memorable experience we enjoyed together in this charming Beach House! The home was very clean, with plenty of towels, blankets and a lovely little heated pool! The location is absolutely wonderful, located on Dauphin Island, literally steps from the beach. Check in was a little delayed as I never received the check in info by text or email. I was able to reach the after hours assistant who was a lively lady and very friendly and helpful. The only issue we had with the house was with windows. The bedroom with the bunkbeds, we were unable to open them. The window frame in the entryway was cracked when we arrived, and seeing how it slammed open when we unlocked the window I could understand why it was cracked. Unfortunately my oldest son was not aware the window was not in good working order, nor was he aware he needed to hold onto the window when unlocking it. Subsequently the window slammed open on his left “pinky” finger, resulting in a crush injury. The property management team was very prompt to respond to our communication and sent someone out right away to secure the window. A small damper on an otherwise incredible experience and wonderful stay! Very nice house, GREAT POOL, and wonderful location with a beautiful view of the ocean. Great management team!
Loved the pool!

This house was perfect for us! The location, the pool, the house itself! All amazing! My only slight complaint was the water pressure in the guest bathroom wasn’t too great and the shower door in the master bathroom doesn’t want to stay shut but those are both pretty minor things. We loved this place and we would definitely recommend this place to anyone and we will definitely be coming back! 10 out of 10 recommend!!!

The description and pictures of this property were spot on. We came for a week to enjoy some down time and it was wonderful. Check in was super easy and contactless. The place was very clean. A screen door was missing and one screen was torn on another door, but with the weather being chilly, we wouldn’t have had the windows open anyways. The pool was amazing! The temperature was so warm that we could all swim even with the chilly weather. You can’t beat the location. We will definitely be staying here again.

Good but not Great

Overall the stay was great. We love the island and the house was great. However, it was missing a few things. There were only 3 wash clothes in the house, and the cooking utensils were minimum at best. It had multiple of the same items but if you plan on cooking a lot it makes it very difficult. The pool and property location were perfect. The house was clean, the beds were comfy, and honestly other than a few short items we had a wonderful stay.

Family weekend on Dauphin Island, AL

Beautiful home close to the beach with beautiful views of the ocean. The kitchen and living area are nicely laid out. Overall the kitchen is well stocked. The living room furniture is comfortable. The beds are super comfy. Every room has a TV and a ceiling fan. 3 of the bedrooms open onto the deck. LOVED the pool on the deck!!!! Plenty of space and furniture on both decks. My only suggestion would be to update some cookware, and storage containers in the kitchen and update the sheets. We have stayed at several beach houses on DI over the years, we would stay here again.

First time to Dauphin Island

The property is as pictured. We had a 13 month old with us and the wooden deck was a concern. Deck railing was missing a spindle and several were loose. We called maintenance and they came the next day. The deck in general needs repaired. The pool was perfect to cool off in, although small, it met our needs. The location of the property was exactly what we wanted. The island does lack in the number of places to eat, that may or may not matter to you. Keep in mind if thinking of coming to the island. Of my two adult children, one commented that it was his favorite place ever (fishing on the beach and not going far to eat) while my daughter was disappointed in the amount of restrurant selections (she is a foodie). If you want a very chill, laid back vibe, this place is for you! I would have given 5 stars, but the deck and railing are a concern.
