Unique Waterfront Property Overlooking Two Bays. Dog-Friendly! New Upgrades!

Very peaceful place! Good view for sunrise!

This Dauphin Island duplex was a coastal paradise that elevated our vacation. The private pier sparked daily fishing fun, Coastal Blue Persuasion’s charter was a thrilling highlight, the aquarium educated and entertained, and the restaurants delivered unforgettable flavors. Our 11-year-old is counting down to next summer, and our Yorkie was right at home. This rental’s blend of modern amenities, prime location, and family-friendly vibe has us hooked—we’re definitely coming back for more Dauphin Island memories

I was surprised at all the reviews that gave this place a perfect rating. While it was ok, there is definitely room for improvement. I had to clean the bathroom on arrival, finding hair and dirt on the floor. I did not call the owner, as I didn’t want someone there while we were there. The place needs a lot of TLC. The pillows were obviously old and flat. The stove burners all tilt making it difficult to cook in a pan. The most unusual thing was that the doors between units were duct taped shut. We could hear the neighbors opening a can and conversing at a normal noise level. For the price I expected a lot better.

What a fantastic property, Thank you for everything. Wonderful stay in every way.

The house was great for me and my two sons. We love to fish, so with the house sitting on the bay with the dock was excellent. Many different species can be caught from the the dock as well as crab. Dolphin can be seen from the dock as well. Mr Reeves is very nice and helpful as well making a great overall experience.

You can’t beat this view, absolutely incredible. Exactly what we needed for our time on the island!

Quiet, lots to do, Islander restaurant was a hit.

Perfect for what we needed

The property was just as described, not having enough salt or cooking oil was not a problem as we are smart enough to bring our own. Also 2 rolls of toilet paper and one roll of paper towels were plenty to get us started and finish our stay! Again we brought our own as we are adults and understand how a rental property works. You can't beat the price for this unit. Sitting on the porch every morning drinking coffee and watching the sunrise was just what we needed. Unbelievably quiet the entire stay. The fishing was great. We did have one major issue, the AC was not working. Figured this out within 15 minutes of arrival. John was contacted and was at the property in less than an hour with with 2 window AC units. Window units were more than enough to keep the place cool our entire stay. John is a very responsible owner and quick to resolve what was a major issue.

This is an amazing location on the island, and the price isn't bad. However, the listing could be clearer about the fact that this is only one side of a duplex (i.e., the photo could point to the side available for rent, instead of the middle of the house). Also, the kitchen was disorganized and poorly stocked (salt shaker was empty, 1 tbs. of olive oil in bottle). No ice/water in fridge and no ice trays. Only one paper towel roll and two toilet paper rolls, watered down soap in kitchen/bathrooms. We were only able to use one of the burners, as two of the other burners would smoke upon turning heat on, and the other one was so tilted, we couldn't cook food evenly. The walls are thin, and we heard crying children several times a day. We had to purchase quite a bit of items (ice trays, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning spray, salt, oil, spices) to be able to cook our meals and clean the house during our stay. The fishing is excellent, kayaks are nice and perfect to take out at sunset on the bay, and it's an all-around good, quiet location on the island. Given that this was our honeymoon, I was disappointed to not find the house set up more hospitably. Yes, it is older and he is making efforts to update it, but I think the larger issue is an overall feeling that this is being done as cheaply as possible to maximize profit instead of making guests feel at home.

We had a great time staying with Mr Revees his place has everything you'll need for the perfect vacation,and I want to say something about all the other reviews that say it needs work,well of course it does all the vacation homes in that area need work if there being rented out on a regular basis,but I can tell you from experience the owner is upgrading this property constantly,he's put in floors,new deck,and is about to put new windows in the unit,there's neighbors next to you but they're really nice and don't bother you at all,I'm sure my little girls got a little bit to loud but not a word from them at all. I guess what I'm trying to say for the price of this unit it's absolutely awesome,the fishing is good,and he's even got a lot of stuff you can use to have fun with. Thanks for a great time and we will be in touch with you to stay again in one of your units very very soon
