Beach access, salty air, sweet sunshine! What else do you need for an unforgettable vacation to Dauphin Island Boasting a furnished deck to enjoy a morning coffee on, a private gas grill, a wonderful sunroom, and plenty of space for the whole family, this retreat has no lack of ways to soak up some rays. The open layout of the kitchen, dining area, and living room will be perfect for mingling and entertaining after a day spent on the sand, so take advantage of the stainless steel appliances and breakfast bar seating to whip up a tasty meal for the whole gang. Slip into relaxation mode in no time when you kick back on the sofa or one of the plush recliners as a movie plays on the flatscreen TV. Each of the three bedrooms are all on one level as well, so those with limited mobility will have no problem calling Turtle Cove home. Not to mention, the pups don't have to stay home on this trip, as this home is dog-friendly!
What's nearby:
Sitting just a few blocks from the sugar-white sand of Hernando Beach, you will have no delay in getting your fill of sandy toes and waterfront picnics. When you want to venture out a bit, the heart of the island awaits just one-and-a-half miles north offering a variety of dining options, shopping, and local attractions. If you brought the kiddos along, be sure to visit The Estuarium at Dauphin Island Sea Lab or take the ferry over to Fort Morgan!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Turtle Cove. Our goal was rest and relaxation which was exactly what we found. The home is lovely but we found it a bit lacking in a few things we generally find in a beach front home. First there was not a hair dryer. We had to go purchase a hair dryer, having never stayed anywhere where one wasn't provided. We were also disappointed that there was nothing in the home except for a couple of beach towels for use on the beach. We made due with what we brought, but would have loved to have a couple of chairs and maybe an umbrella. So if the beach is your thing just remember to bring anything you'll need for a relaxing time listening to the waves. The closed in porch on the back of the home was lovely as well as the front porch facing the ocean.
The location was amazing, walk to pool and beach was not too far and pretty easy. Size of house was great and roomy for 8 people.
The beach house was lovely - clean and very comfortable. The location was excellent. It was in a quiet neighborhood with a short walk to the beach. It was also a short drive to the ferry and the bird sanctuary. We had a wonderful visit and would like to return at another time.
Proximity of house to beach was great. Easy walk to beach and swimming pool. Home was quiet and comfortable. It had everything needed for our vacation. Hope to stay again next year
We absolutely loved our stay here from the moment of checking in to the moment of checking out everything was made very easy and efficient! This house is absolutely beautiful and the beaches are so peaceful and uncrowded! The only thing that could have made it more perfect would it had been oceanfront. It was a little bit of a stroll with 4 kids and all the beach items but we made do! We will definitely be back!
Very clean, updated home. Plenty of room. Very comfortable seating. We are very pleased with it.
Tips: get groceries and other medical supplies at Greer’s before hitting the island. There are not many restaurants on the island, so be prepared for a wait if you’re wanting to eat out. House was in a great location. I enjoyed hearing the frogs at night.
We had a great time and this home was perfect. It was a short enjoyable walk to the private beach. There were games available in the unit for evening fun. The kitchen was stocked and every aspect was smooth. We also loved the covered parking on site. I highly recommend this rental.
The house is beautiful and well kept. It is a close bike ride/walk to pool and beach. I never got a response to questions from management while on vacation, nor could I ever get them on the phone.
Overall we enjoyed our stay in this house. It was cute and spacious. The bed was fairly comfortable. The back sunroom is a nice feature. There were plenty of cooking items and dishes. No hair dryer. We liked the ceramic tile in some of the house. Good location on the island. Probably would not choose to stay here again for several reasons. The gated community is well maintained however our street ran open in the back to an apartment complex with access into the development by walking across the grass so not a gated community really. One evening several teens came across the neighboring house backyard and were messing around with the house. We heard them talking about the possibility of security cameras so they continued into the development and went on down to the private beach within our community. Upon their return they messed around behind our house in the dunes before going back to the apartments. Maintenance at this house was disappointing. Several ceiling lights were burned out including one in the kitchen ceiling fan. One sink stopper in the master was broken and a tub stopper was pulled out and laying in the tub. The rugs in the master bath were a matted mess with long strings everywhere on the floor and tracked in the bed. All of the windows that we tried to open stuck except 2. Bedrooms had gross stains on the carpet which were numerous and had obviously been there for sometime. I called to let management know we were reporting them upon arrival. Air conditioner did not work well. This house was an expensive rental and we felt like it should have been better maintained. The Roku was awful. Poor reception with lots of buffering.
