A Slice of Paradise
This was our first year to come to Dauphin Island and we’d loved it! We will definitely make it a favorite for our family. Susan, our host was just a call/text away and we enjoyed her condo at Holiday Isle. Everything was awesome! It was better than described. We will definitely be coming back. !

Fabulous Gulf Views
We attended our family reunion on Dauphin so we did not use the extensive beach equipment in the condo. This condo is spacious with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, so it was perfect for our family. It is well-equipped with everything we needed. Our car was parked at the front door making for easy loading and unloading. When we return to Dauphin Island, our first choice will be this condo! Appreciate all the communications with the owner.

Great Experience!
Very nice accommodations, and the photos and descriptions were accurate. This condo is very well suited for a family of four (or more). Further, great communication from the host all along the way. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Dauphin Island and Holiday Isle, and we fully expect to return in years to come.

Susan’s place was perfect! Beach on one side, restaurants across the street made for the best location. Susan’s hospitality was beyond expectations and really made us feel comfortable for our first trip to Dauphin Island. We will definitely be back to this place!

Great spring break!
We loved our stay on Dauphin Island. Susan was able to answer all our questions and the island was a perfect getaway. We enjoyed the beach and the quiet town. We would love to go back. We can't stop thinking about how much we enjoyed it. The condo was a great set up for us with children ages 17, 13, 13, and 11. The pools were great and we were right on the beach. I'd book it every year if I could.

Great time with family
This is a fabulous location for families with diverse interests. You can take a long walk along the beach looking at birds and collecting shells or spend time in the indoor or outdoor pool. Utilize the workout room in the morning, or take a bike ride along the greenway. The condo is well maintained and provides plenty of entertainment opportunities if you choose to stay in -- games, puzzles, books and more. We hope to return again.

Beautiful and Exceeded Expections
This was a beautiful experience for our family. The condo was clean and had everything we needed! The property manager was easy to communicate with and made sure there was a crock pot there along with beach towels, umbrellas, chairs and a cart! The condo is clean, which I appreciate! The island is pristine and enjoyed the view from our deck and walked 7-10 miles daily on the beach. If you want a beach get away and not the hustle & bustle, this is a place for you! If you want a party/music scene or lots of shops, probably best to go to Orange Beach or Gulf Shores. We are laid back and prefer to avoid all that. Loved walking the trails at the bird sanctuary and the beach, visited the fort. Our sons went fishing on guided 4 hour tour and we ate at a couple local restaurants. Recommend getting groceries/food (if you like to cook) before coming to the island. The appliances worked great too! Amenities of the condo itself were good- our sons took advantage of the heated pools and hot tub. The tennis courts were being refurbished at the condo so they found a golf course down the road that allowed them to have a few matches. On the 2nd floor there was a ping pong table and they enjoyed this. We have no complaints, and hope to come back again! Thank you so much!

Relaxing Stay
The previous reviews are right on target. The host was great, the condo was nice, clean and the kitchen was well stocked-we had absolutely no issues. We enjoyed spending time on the balcony and walks on the lovely beach. The island is quiet and very laid back. The eat out options are very limited for a nice meal. We enjoyed purchasing fresh fish from Skinners. The DI golf course was very rough, we had fun playing it, but serious minded golfers will be disappointed. It was a very nice place for some much needed downtime-very relaxing.
