Coastal Gem on the Sand With Large Deck, Ocean Views & Private Pool & Hot Tub

This was a great house! The beach was the perfect distance for the kiddos to play on the beach and parents to watch from the deck.

The home was very roomy and comfortably fit 10 adults and 4 children. The kitchen is fully stocked and found ourselves needing nothing in order to cook for our large family. The additional fridge and standing freezer was a nice addition as well. By far the most comfortable patio furniture I’ve seen while staying at any beach house. Just know, the only thing you’ll need when you stay here is toilet paper, trash bags, and paper towels. There were some concerns though: mainly there was a musty smell from the kitchen cabinets of high moisture along with black mold around the A/C vents in two, maybe 3 of the bedrooms which may have caused a few of our guests with some respiratory problems during our stay. The hot tub filter cover was broken and held on by tape which had to keep being reset. The step towards the bottom of the staircase wasn’t secured which made my MIL fall, luckily nothing which caused injury. One of the doors to the laundry rooms handle was broken and a few minor other things that should have just already been fixed. Over all, it’s a very nice place but maybe the upkeep side of the house has been neglected too long. In my opinion.

Overall, this house was very nice and spacious. It has a beautiful beach/ocean view. Very family friendly. The house was overall fairly clean, aside from some mold around the vents in each of the bathrooms. The hot tub didn't work when we got there (which we were unaware of), but they did get it fixed while we were there. The amenities listed spices, but all that was there was salt and pepper and those were difficult to find. The wi-fi was very spotty and often didn't work. While we didn't use the tvs often, we did use them for some downtime in the evenings for the kids.

Our first Family Beach Trip was a great success thanks to the ease and accessibility of the Doctor’s Orders. It is perfect for families, especially with young children. Of the 29 VRBOs we’ve stayed in around the globe; this one, by far, was the most well appointed.

Beautiful house. Loved the location and was perfect for our family. Only issues was the wifi not working the first day and living room tv never working. Which was not much of an issue since we stayed out at the beach the whole time.

This was our 3rd time to Dauphin Island with our 2 daughters their husbands and children. Our first time to this property and we were not disappointed in anyway. The location, beach space, abundance of beach toys made it great for the 5 grandsons. The kitchen is well staffed and the house with plenty of bedrooms for all to spread out. The deck and furniture were a great place to spend time when not on the beach. The hot tub was a big plus as well. The property was everything we needed so we booked it again before we left!

Our stay was remarkable. The house had everything we needed. The only thing that we feel needs some work is the bathroom off the bunk room. It could use some updating.

The house was very clean other than a moldy shower curtain upon arrival. The layout was perfect for our 4-family group and the deck is the best we have seen with the nicest deck furniture ever. The beach was private and there is plenty of room to spread out without neighbors encroaching. We enjoyed the waves, dolphins from the deck, watching the neighboring fishermen reel in catches, and crab hunting at night. The only negative was communication with Vacasa. It is not the same as communicating with an owner and many times if felt like my questions or concerns were being fielded by a call center or by AI. It did not seem like they had any personal knowledge about the house or area. Even with this, we would definitely book this house again!

Great location that offered a nice private beach and well appointed home.

We had a wonderful time there with our teenage children, young adult children, and our parents(the grand parents) we had plenty of room! It was clean and well stocked with anything you need in the kitchen. I would 100% go back!
