The property was spacious and quiet with easy access to the beach. Home decor was basic but adequate and comfortable. Loved both porches! Problem with air conditioning was handled immediately- kudos to the owner! Would love to stay again!
What an amazing place! I truly enjoyed this island away from it all. The house is roomy, very clean, has everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and elsewhere. You will feel spoiled living right across from the beach. Not crowded, the ppl are friendly and sounds of nature are great. I highly recommend!
We spent a memorable and enjoyable week at this property on Dauphin Island - house was as described, had everything we needed, particularly a quiet, beautiful beach right outside the front door. Host was outstanding and very responsive.
On a lark, we decided to do Thanksgiving away form home this year. After reviewing potential options based on budget, we settled on Dauphin Island and the "Perfect Life". It had plenty of room for me, my wife, two grown up daughters, and my wife's mom. Everyone had their own bedrooms and bathrooms (daughters had to share a Jack and Jill). The living area gave us room to relax, and the dinner table gave us a nice spot to play games and have our Thanksgiving dinner. Check in was a easy with the owner hitting me up with messages the day of making sure we had the codes to the gated community and to the house. She was very responsive leading up to the trip by answering several questions we had about the amenities. The house isn't right against the beach, but there's plenty of beach access nearby and being there on the off season meant the beaches weren't picked clean of shells. We had to do some food planning before hand since there isn't much on the island to stock up for a week, but we did find the Lighthouse Bakery which offered some amazing pastries. Everyone enjoyed themselves despite it being a bit different this year, and we are considering doing this again next year. If we decide on Dauphin Island again, then it will be a "Perfect Life" for us.
It was our first visit to the island. The house was perfect for our needs and everything was as advertised. Great communication with the owner through the process. We are already looking forward to our next visit here.
When I say this home away from home was amazing, Iâm telling you, we felt like we were 100% at home! All kinds of great amenities! Truly a little slice of heaven!
I rented for one month. I wanted my family to have a chance to come at difficult times to match their work schedules. It was a fabulous time! This is a wonderful house for a family! Plenty of room in the main area with two outside decks. The setup is perfect! The bathrooms were setup great . Huge laundry room with lots of space to store your supplies. Kitchen was a dream space. Everything you needed to prepare meals. A outside shower for rinsing the sand . The grill was large enough to cook for several. Two bicycles, which my family used daily, sand toys, and misc. floaties. A short walk to the beach which was never crowded. The host responded to any questions I had almost immediately.
This is one of the older homes but well cared for and worth every penny. I highly recommend this property and praise the host.
We loved our stay here. The location and beach access was great. The sand under and around the house was perfect for my kids to play in. Check in and out was easy. The host was reaponsive and helpful and the house had everything we needed. We'd love to stay again.
