As soon as we arrived at the property we was impressed with the curb appeal and when we went inside we were impressed by how it was decorated and how clean it was. This property has anything you could ask for. Our yorkie felt right at home. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Great dog friendly place to stay!
Dauphin pod was a great dog friendly place to stay for my husband and I. It was centrally located on the Island. The beach was about a .5 mile walk so I would suggest taking a little wagon to haul your beach gear. It was very clean and had all the essentials! Communication with the host was very quick.

A cozy couple’s retreat
Dauphin Pod is a perfect place for a couple’s getaway on a beautiful island. The two rooms, kitchenette and bathroom are just right for two. The place is clean, well-maintained and nicely decorated. There is a small kitchenette that, when we stayed, only had a microwave for heating things up (no table or stove) but a great place to get meals just down the street is Dinner’s Up, which has ready-to-eat take-out meals that only need to be warmed up, which we found to be a perfect choice. You can also sit out on the deck or in two other places downstairs for relaxing and eating. Also, don’t miss breakfast or lunch at the Lighthouse Bakery. We especially appreciated being in the residential part of the island, nestled in among the trees. The aquarium, Audubon refuge and a secluded beach are all nearby. There are bikes available and a bike path that runs the whole length of the island is just two blocks away. We loved the small town feel and friendly, welcoming people and look forward to returning for another, longer stay.

Relaxing & Peaceful
The owner paid great attention to personal details for not only myself & my spouse but also our 2 dogs. It was very pet friendly space. The house seemed secluded even though there were other houses around. The beach was close by along with everything else on the island. We were able to relax without having to worry about anything. We will be going back!

Perfect getaway
The Dauphin Pod was a perfect long weekend getaway! Great neighborhood that made walking to the beach easy, fantastic biking and the Pod had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. During the rain the covered breezeway was perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine and reading and was also great for morning coffee. The kitchenette with the air fryer and nice refrigerator/freezer made meals easy. The overall attention to detail made it such a comfortable stay! I will definitely be back 😊

Nice & quiet
A nice little one bed & one bath spot for couples. Liked the fire pit and grilling area. Landscaping needs some work and recommend leaving more firewood for the fire pit. I think it would be a good option to include the golf cart as an option when booking or include it in booking. The surrounding neighbors don’t bother and it is very quiet. The bikes are a nice option as well.

The trip to the beach is far with a lot of stuff, but you can make a few trips. Worth it if you are staying all day. House was cute, clean, and everything is very close. We really enjoyed our stay. The beach was very quiet and clean.

Great Place!
This is a lovely, efficient place. My husband and I stayed there, and we elected not to take the dogs - I’m glad we didn’t because of the stairs, but had we taken them, they would have LOVED that the owner left treats for them! Even though we didn’t use the fire pit - and I was DYING to try out that stove I’ve been wanting to buy! - the s’mores are such a thoughtful touch! This place has everything but a stove/oven; it is so well outfitted! Thanks for everything, especially making our first trip to Dauphin Island feel like we were coming home!
