Beach house holiday rentals in Dauphin Island

Our stay was wonderful! There was more than enough room for 4 adults and 3 children. The outside space made this listing worth it all. We loved playing in the sand, fishing off the deck, and having easy beach access. We had some unfortunate issues that were out of Karin’s control and she went above and beyond to help reconcile the issues. Highly recommend!

We discovered a hidden gem! What a delightful stay for everyone. There is a ramp on one side of the house that made bringing our luggage in a breeze. The view of the dunes and beach was nice each morning as we sat outside and sipped our coffee. There was even some wildlife to watch. Once at the beach, it couldn't get any better. Very few people, a gentle slope into the ocean and plenty of soft white gulf coast sand to put our chairs in! As mentioned by others, Heather is a very responsive host. Making sure each guest has what they may need. The layout of the house made it for easy for all boasting very comfortable bedrooms that were away from the commotion of the common spaces. There are sand chairs available as well as a wagon if you would like help bringing your toys to the beach. There is a slight walk to the beach but not on we ever had to dread making. Already looking at another week in 2026 to return!

This place exceeded our expectations. There were so many amenities provided, such as boogie boards, beach chairs and towels, toys, nets and shovels. The weather throughout our stay was glorious! We enjoyed both the ocean and the pool. The washer and dryer sets were essential! Two of all appliances were perfect! Anything we needed in the kitchen was there. Being on the upper level was another blessing. We used the outside porch to the max! Definitely recommend Norris Lake Chalet for large families.

Such a great place to stay for the weekend! We brought our boat to tie to the dock and were easily able to take it out each day. Kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with plenty of supplies, easy check in, and beautiful location. We will be back!

We had a lovely time at Tiffany’s place! The house is very close to the beach. You do have to cross the main road but the access felt safe for us and our kids. There were many beach toys and amenities which was very nice. The house and neighborhood were comfortable and quiet. It was fun to sit under the house on the swings and relax in the shade! It was easy to walk and bike around the island. We would be very happy to stay there again!

This is our 3rd year staying at her lovely beach home with my family. There is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy their stay with big bedrooms and a big table to gather at for dinners. It has the perfect location on the Sound side with easy walking access to the Gulf side too. It is always the vacation home we look forward to stay in every year.

We enjoyed our vacation along with 3 other families at this beautiful beach house! The house is beautiful and very clean! The pool and easy to access beach made our vacation so relaxing! We would highly recommend this house for someone looking for a relaxing vacation away from all the hustle and bustle of a busy vacation attraction! It’s an easy drive to get to town and nice restaurants close by! Sonia was very friendly and easy to work with!

Carla and Jason's Barefoot Bungalow was everything we had hoped for and more! To look out the windows and see the ocean was breathtaking. Having a place right on the ocean was so worth it! (Though cost was totally reasonable!) We had a small gathering of immediate family for my Mom's birthday and it could not have been a better venue! Being so close to the beach allowed for so much more ease, entertainment, and joy! Walks and time on the beach in both the morning and the evening was so conducive to connection. Perfect for a family reunion of sorts! Sitting on the large wraparound deck to greet the day over coffee, sea birds flying over head, and the ocean breeze was wonderful! And the interior layout allowed for all of us to have space and room to breathe. Our time at Barefoot Bungalow will be remembered forever and we hope to make it back there in the not too distant future!

We had a fantastic experience staying at this Airbnb! From the moment we booked, the hosts were incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They answered all our questions quickly, gave great local recommendations, and were always available if we needed anything. The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described, but it was the hosts’ attentiveness and kindness that really made our stay special. Highly recommend—would definitely stay here again!

The house is very spacious and is close to the beach. We had a problem with one of the AC units at the house, but Neil quickly got someone out to look at it. It is a great house on a great part of the beach that is not too crowded.

House was beautiful and perfect for what we needed! Ashleigh was easy to contact and made sure everything was ready for us

The beach home was perfect for our gathering of friends. The primary bedrooms were great with secluded spaces. Bunk rooms were also great. While we were there, we had other homes full of people around us, yet I felt like we had our own space without anyone around. The living room was great for gathering when we needed a break from the sun at the beach. With the walk to the beach <3 mins away, well worth the stay! I’d rate this 10/10 and highly recommend Emma!

Wow! Our stay at this house was nothing short of amazing! The brand-new property was super clean and provided ample space for our group of six adults and five children. The pool was a perfect hit with our grandchildren, ranging in age from 10 to 3 years old. They had a blast splashing around and enjoying the water. The beach being just a short walk away added to the convenience and fun of our trip. We were also incredibly thankful for the corner plaza market, which had everything we needed - a restaurant, a seafood market, an ice cream stand, and of course, a small market for any essentials. Joel was exceptional in his responsiveness to all our communications, ensuring that our stay was smooth and enjoyable. This place truly knocks it out of the park 100% and is absolutely perfect for families looking to have a memorable vacation. Highly recommend!

Absolutely perfect & exactly what we needed with 5 children! Beach wagon, chairs, and sand toys were so so helpful. Our host was extremely accommodating to my many requests on early check in, and incredibly responsive to any questions I had. I can’t say enough good things about this place. The public pool was perfect and was never too crowded. Everyone at the cottages were incredibly friendly. This beach is extremely kid friendly. The walk to the beach was a breeze. Takes maybe 2 minutes until your feet hit the sand! We will definitely be back! 5 stars!!!!

Very comfortable and spacious plenty of room for my family and I. Kids enjoyed themselves very much. 10⭐️’s

This Airbnb is in a great location. About 15-20 min from the heart of Gulf Shores. The back has a beautiful view of the bay and you're just a walk across the street to the ocean. We came here with 10 ladies for the weekend and had plenty of room for everyone.

I highly recommend this place, especially if you have a large family. We only have the two of us and our dog, but the place is spacious, clean, and near everything. The host is friendly and responsive to any issues.

This was one of the cleanest, well-maintained, and beautifully appointed houses we've ever stayed in. It was very close to the beach and amazingly clean. Clearly, the owners take pride in this home, and we will definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing stay. The home was beautiful and the location was great. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

My husband and I loved our stay here! Everything was just like the photos. The beach is just a short walk over and so is the bay which was super convenient. We loved being able to sit on the deck on the front and the porch on the back and just hear and watch the waves!! I found the kitchen to be well stocked - plenty of seasonings, coffee & filters and dishes (nothing in fridge so no condiments which was fine). After reading other reviews we did bring our own throw blankets, hand soap and shampoo/conditioner and that made things much nicer for us!!! The house was clean! The bed wasn’t great but we slept just fine - the sheets are a bumpy texture but that didn’t really matter too much to us. There also was a funky smell in the bedroom on the window/curtain during our stay (didn’t mention it to them until our last day) but management responded quickly & said it will be resolved. Communication was great - had minor WiFi problems and they quickly came and fixed it! We LOVED our stay!

We had a fantastic stay at Josh’s Airbnb on Dauphin Island! Josh was incredibly responsive and friendly, making the whole experience smooth from start to finish. The home was immaculate and located in a beautiful area, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Our kids had a blast with all the activities available, and having the golf cart made getting around the island super convenient. The house itself was stunning—spacious, beautifully decorated, and truly felt like a home away from home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend it to friends and family!

This house has everything you could possibly need! beautiful location with beautiful sunset views. Had a blast fishing off the dock and swimming with the kiddos!

This is a stunning place from which to explore the island! You can walk over the dunes to the secluded beach nearby and take a swim all by yourself (not counting the pelicans and terns). If you want a bicycle to get around the island, there's currently just one rental in operation on the island -- Salty Dog. I recommend calling them in advance, and they can deliver the bikes to the place when you arrive.

I wanted a vacation for my family, where we could spend quality time together. Until Next Time was just that!! We brought out own food to cook and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! Every room was spacious, bright, and clean and the beds were beyond comfortable. The pool was a HUGE hit with both the adults and children. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!! The location of this property can't be beat! Day 2 we had already decided that Until Next Time is going to be our regular and forever family vacation spot!!!
