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.

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!

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.

Wow. Everything and more!
I can’t even begin to say enough great things about Vacasa. We will never rent through any other company again. They are quick to respond, professional, friendly, and make you feel like family. We had an AMAZING time at dauphin island. I’ve been renting condos/houses on the beach for years and have never stayed at a house so well equipped. They have everything you could possibly need and more. Vacasa made our trip so much fun, worry free, and easy as pie. The self check in was flawless. The pool and beach access are steps away. The house was HUGE and had so many great common areas. We will definitely stay at this house again and like I said, never rent from another company again. Our family of 5 had more than enough room and our three young boys were never bored. There were so many board games, card games, TV apps, etc. it was never crowded at the pool and most days we had the entire beach to ourselves. The gated community made us feel safe and everyone we did run into was friendly and welcoming. Wonderful stay! The house was very clean although I will say, I have extremely high standards when it comes to cleanliness and I do wish the bathrooms had been just a bit better. There were small black hairs throughout the entire place (I assume from a dog that had stayed the week before) but after a quick vacuum (provided by the house in a closet), we were good to go. Since we too brought our dog, I really didn’t mind. We appreciate being able to include our pooch on the family vaca and we understand how hard it is to get every single hair 😂. It was a wonderful week and we can’t wait to come back!

This was a great place for a nice get away. The private beach and friendly neighbors really just made it perfect. This is definitely the place to be if you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of summer vacationers.

This home is a nice place to stay. We loved the back room (sunroom). The master bed is comfortable. Plenty of towels and linens. Everything you will need. We wish we would have had access to a larger pool, however our original home had sold and this rental was our next option. Our kids didn't complain about the beds so they must have been comfortable as well. Its a good place if you want to relax. The management was very responsive as well.
