    Firstly, the house was immaculately clean, comfortable, & felt like a home away from home. The host was very quick to respond, kind and helpful. The view was absolutely indescribable. There are just no words. The home comfortably fit 6 people. The Tiki hut was equipped with beautiful comfortable furniture, internet, a TV, surround sound speakers with bluetooth, lights & a fan. There are 2 docks, kayaks, paddleboards, life vests & paddles, literally everything you'd need. The area is safe & perfect for families with children. The highlight of our time at Papa Roy's was the dolphins. We literally SWAM & kayacked with a family of them for going on 2 hours straight the day before we left, & seen them every single day we were there. They even played with us from the dock when we finally came back in. I took a net & caught little shrimp & fed Henry the blue Herron for about 45 mins every day we were there. The house is equipped with everything you'd need from blankets, pillows to cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, laundry supplies etc. I would suggest getting groceries before hand because Walmart delivery is not available for this location. Its is also the pefect place to get away. Your close enough to be 20-25 minutes from Gulf Shores and 30 mins away from Perdido Keys in Flordia. This place was by FAR the most incredible place we have EVER been & our host Michelle was unmatched on every level. As a frequent traveler, we HIGHLY recommend you stay here.

    We had a wonderful stay at Papa Roy’s! From the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect relaxing getaway. We loved fishing right off the dock, kayaking around the water, catching hermit crabs, and even watching dolphins swim by. There is so much to do — you truly don’t even have to leave the property to have an amazing time.Our 6-year-old had an absolute blast and was entertained the entire trip. The sunsets each evening were breathtaking, and ending the night with s’mores around the fire pit was the perfect cozy touch.Such a special place for making family memories. Communication with the host was alsoexcellent and timely!

    I can’t say enough about our experience here. The home was spotless and beautifully decorated like a beach cottage. Our children ages 10, 10, and 8 played endlessly on the beach and waterslide. We saw so much wildlife, including dolphins everyday. It was so peaceful, given that the area on the other side of the water is all natural with no houses. The kids could walk pretty far out while still touching and the water was calm. We got some much needed rest and would love to make this our go-to place to come back to again and again.

    PapaRoy's may be a bit off the beaten path, but that’s exactly what makes it such a peaceful and relaxing place to stay. My family loved starting our days with trips to the beach and other nearby attractions, then winding down in the afternoons on our own private beach. We spotted dolphins daily, and the slide was a fun bonus that everyone enjoyed.The closest town, Foley, is about 25 minutes away and offers plenty of options for shopping and dining.Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely love to return. Give PapaRoy's a try—you won’t be disappointed!

    We went to Papa Roy's Paradise for the second time, and we look forward to returning a third time. I highly recommend staying here! It is so nice to have a private little beach and pier so close to the house, especially with an 8-month-old and 6-year-old in tow. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, seeing the dolphins, and swimming. Michele is a wonderful, helpful, and responsive host. The only issue we had was with the internet, so we were unable to watch any movies at night on the smart TV or dish on demand, but Michele said they may be getting fiber in the future (fingers crossed!!).

    Marjorie and I had a fantastic stay at Papa Roys. We love that fact that it is a very quiet neighborhood. We loved sitting down by the water enjoying our favorite drinks and watching for the dolphines to swim by. We were close enought to Foley to go shopping for an afternoon with many resturants if we did't want to BBQ. We have been at Papa Roys 3 times now and plan to make many more trips down to Alabama. It is worth the 2 1/2 day drive down there.

    We absolutely loved our stay! We were able to see dolphins & catch fish from the shore or dock every day. And the pavilion outside is a great way for the kids to get out of the sun or snuggle up and watch a little TV.

    We loved the property! We saw all kinds of wildlife: conch shell walking on bottom of water, unidentified huge fish sitting at bottom of water, heron, blue jays taking a bath, and best of all a small gray dolphin 3’ from shore. It was also a full moon so we enjoyed the moon and stars from the dock. We walked daily along the road and it was peaceful and friendly neighbors!

    Beautiful beach house in a great location! Very clean and exactly as described. The private beach and dock were the best parts! My daughter and i swam and my son and husband fished. The water was warm and calm and they caught fish after fish. There were kayaks, life jackets, floats and more. We all enjoyed our stay.
