Summary:

Waverly Retreat



The Space:

Ever wanted to know what it is like to live right on the sand Well, you won't have to winder any longer when you call this fantastic Dauphin Island retreat home for a little while! Waverly, a four-bedroom oceanfront gem that is more than ready to accommodate the whole family, is perched on the west end of the island to give you a bit of peace and quiet while still being near all of the action. As soon as the sun comes up, listen to the tide ebb and flow on the furnished deck. Or, if everyone has built up an appetite from a full day at the beach, fire up the gas grill and have a casual cookout with loved ones. For more formal meals, the full kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, wonderful white countertops, an island, dishwasher, and deep sink. Plus, everyone can be part of the conversation during meal prep with the dining area adjacent to the kitchen. When it is time to settle down, the living room features three sofas and a mounted flatscreen TV to make movie nights a breeze, and all four bedrooms are on each corner of the home to give everyone some privacy.

    We rented this property the week of Thanksgiving and it was perfect for the 7 of us. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described. While the house next door is close, there are still amazing views and steps away from the Gulf.

    The house is very nice and clean, this is one time that I really felt like the pictures didn't do it justice. The back deck is huge and a perfect spot for catching some rays and watching the ocean. You can see the beach pefectly from the back deck. It was nice to be able to sit up there and still be able to have a close eye on the kids playing in the waves. The beds were comfy, the bathrooms were nice amd didnt feel cramped. It was a great home away from home for four adults and three kids.

    The house was in a prime location on the west end of the island- very quiet and almost empty beaches. The house was very clean and upgraded. We loved having a bathroom for each bedroom. The only negative is the fridge runs at 50 degrees, the ice maker and water dispenser in the fridge were not working and neither was the garbage disposal in the sink. Other than those things, the house made for a great weekend trip!

    The house was as described, very nice, clean, well- equipped. The staff was responsive to our concerns and got back to us quickly when needed. The back porch was awesome and spacious. The location was not ideal as there is a house directly in front on the ocean side. We could still see the ocean, at an angle. No beach to speak of, but it didn't spoil our fun. We could walk down to the beach where there was space to spread out. All in all, a very nice week

    We had a wonderful stay! The home offered semi-private access to the beach and was just a short walk to the West End beach. The room sizes were spacious, and each bedroom had its own bathroom, which made the stay comfortable and convenient. Perfect spot for a relaxing coastal getaway.

    It was Bananas how close you are to the water at this location! Other than that we had an excellent stay. Very calming decor with everything we needed and quiet to the close waves.

    Perfect place to experience the best Dauphin Island has to offer. Clean and updated with awesome views. Loved the large deck which was very steps away to the water. Great that it's pet friendly. A lot of steps but typical for the location. Highly recommended and hope to stay again.

    Although the waves were crashing onto the beach just outside the house, the sounds were soft inside. The house was perfect for our group, four bedrooms each with its own bath. The house is a short walk to the west end public beach, a wonderful place to explore and beach comb. We would definitely stay there again, even though two bedroom doors stick against uneven floors and some minor wall damage.

    Absolutely the most amazing place. I have never been to Dauphin island but the friends I traveled with had visited the island a few times prior. Everything was amazing. The house was perfect. My friends even said it was the best place they have stayed on the island. 10/10 recommend.

    We loved this property! Our goal was relaxation and we met it! The sound of the Gulf waves was exactly what I envisioned. The private drive and parking right at the steps was convenient for loading/unloading and parking under the house provided shade for the car. Loved having steps off the back deck to access the beach which is essentially shared with the 3 other houses in the immediate area. It was a perfect scenario. You can even see dolphins chasing the fishing boats from the deck!

    Overall the stay was good. We did find the house a little dirty in the kitchen upon arrival, trash cans smelt like old sea food. There was not a broom in the house and I contacted Vacasa twice during our stay and never received one. I walked on sandy floors the entire stay. There were some cosmetic issues with scuffed walls and a few small holes in the walls in 2 of the bedrooms. The trim on all of the base boards looked incomplete with nail holes that had not been filled in. A few of the doors drug the floor when opening and closing. I know this is picky but for the price I expected a well put together vacation home. This house is on the west end so no beach in front of the homes, some access between the front rough of houses. We were there at a time with high level rip currents and high waves due to tropical disturbances in the gulf so this led to flooded road on our last 2 days of our stay. Of course that is mother natures fault. I recommend not driving a low profile car in case of flooding. It would be nice to know in the description that there is limited beach front. A few things that I recommend that need to be added to this house that come in handy at other homes we have rented: extra linens and blankets, there were none here. A guide of the island with restaurants, activities, and places to visit. Luckily we have been to the island at least 6 times before and we’re familiar with it, but definitely would come in handy for newbies to the island.

    Great size house for families. Nice beach access and quick walk to west end public beach. A few palmetto bigs made their appearance and scared kids, but overall wonderful experience. Great price too!
