Wonderful house for a large group!
We met our four children and grandchildren here for a week and it was perfect! A large well equipped kitchen, five bedrooms and four baths and a large living area made our stay so enjoyable. And the water being literally out the back door and a great back deck made enjoying the beach so easy!

Family trip
The house was in a great location and spacious. Plenty of rooms and beds, open floor plan was light and bright. Loved the double decks! The kitchen had everything we could have needed, and the grill was in good shape and clean. Our third trip here with Vascasa , no issues ever. We would love to rent here again.

Wonderful experience. Clean, comfortable, and accommodating. Nice beds and bathrooms. Both open and private space. Three things were noted that need attention: bathroom sliding door alignment, tv in one bedroom, and grilling on South patio. Would definitely consider this home for a follow-on visit in the future. Place is well kept and maintained.

Great Location, nice beach right odd the back porch. Nice open concept with a great gulf view from the kitchen, living area, and both main bedrooms. Well stocked kitchen. No houses in front of this home - unobstructive views.

Super cute
Loved the views, baby gates helped so much with keeping the littles safe! We stayed a full 7 days and the washer and dryer in house was so helpful! We came with 6 adults and 10 kids and we all fit very comfortably! Vacasa also provided great customer care and got right back with any questions I had! The only tip I’d leave is bring some throw blankets, there’s no vacuum accessible so it was ALOT of sweeping but that’s expected! Overall 9/10

A great time was had by all!!!
Our family of 16 spent the weekend during a Mardi Gras parade and we absolutely loved the house. It was well equipped with cooking utensils (although the coffee pot was slow), the beds were comfortable, adorable decorations, open floor plans and room for everyone to sit together to eat and play board games. The outside was well lit and the kids played on the beach after dark. We could easily make this a yearly event for our family.

Great house
The house was amazing! It was clean and ready before regular check in. The place was beautiful and in a great location. The only complaint we have is regarding the driveway. It was very hard to see when coming in, and our GPS made us turn in the one beside it which looks like it was the old driveway because it was a small patch then became sand. We got stuck in the sand, and when we called for help their only response was to get a shovel. While the accidental turn isn't their fault, someone should rope off the old driveway as another car got stuck soon after. Otherwise though, the house was perfect!

Beautiful beach house
Lovely home. Well stocked kitchen. Amazing views as it is as described, directly on the beach. The house was perfect! We will likely be returning next year. However their was no response from the hosting company when we had questions about the remotes for the tvs. We emailed via Vrbo and through their Vacasa app. We only had one day of bad weather and we were able to make 2 of the 6 tvs work with all of the remotes provided. This would not stop us from returning, but is something to note. This was in New Years weekend, perhaps that explained the No response to emails. Even with the lack of communication we would all return, it was one of the best beach houses we’ve rented for our annual New Years met up

***MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WORKS***
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL location & house. EXCEPT the management. I needed to cancel and sent emails and phone calls & texts and no answer. We would have lost all our money. Our family went on to stay in this home and none of the outlets in the kitchen worked after the 1st morning in the home. I contacted VACASA & spoke to someone from another country and always just took my name and number and never called me back. It was the last day before we had to check out, (trip was 5 days) then they came in to fix the issue. We had to cook breakfast outside on the front porch due to not having enough pans for a big family. All in all the money was well worth the stay. The home was beautiful but VACASA dropped the ball. ***OWNER OF THE HOME--I WOULD DEFINITELY LOOK INTO VACASA AND HOW THEY OPERATE YOUR PROPERTY***

Wonderful beach house
The house was very clean and cute! We loved the close proximity to the beach. Vacasa was very helpful with any questions and so was the property manager in the area. They have lots of plates and silverware. They also have two coffee pots, two dishwashers, a crockpot, a waffle maker, a griddle, and lots of pots, and pans, so that you can cook all kinds of things! There are plenty of towels. We loved the 2 rooms with bunk beds because everyone had their own bed. There is a volleyball net so bring a ball. A couple things to help those coming to stay- please note these aren’t negative - just things to know. There aren’t any spices in the house, so plan accordingly. There is almost 2 flights of stairs to get in the house that you have to carry suitcases up. There are no extra blankets, so bring your own blankets for the couch or deck. They are building a new house in front of this house, so be very careful when pulling in the first time. To find the driveway, look for a wooden sign with the house numbers on it. If you pull into what looks like a steep driveway stop and back out- it’s the wrong one. Two vehicles got stuck turning into that driveway, including a contractor. The outside trash can was overflowing when we got there, so we made sure to take it to the curb on trash days. Trash runs twice a week and the schedule is on the fridge, so make sure you take the can to the curb for the next person staying at the house. We would definitely stay at this house again.

Great room layout
This is our second time staying out of Dauphin Island and we love it. This house has a great room layout and we brought friends and family. The kitchen is well stocked. We love being the front house on the beach with nothing blocking the view. From reading other reviews we brought hand soap pumps for each bathroom and throw blankets since there are none. My only negatives; and they aren't bad, are the deck furniture is not very comfortable and under the house was muddy so we couldn't hang out under there like we have at a different house.
