Disappointing

A Christmas vacation in Alabama. The weather was cold and windy. Good points: the kitchen had all the appliances we needed. The nearness to the beach. Beach toys. Baby gates. Soft sheets. Most beds were comfy. Washer and dryer worked well. Bad points: This house was advertised as having a heated pool. When we arrived, the notebook did not include instructions for turning on the heater so I messaged the host. Her response gave instructions as if the heater would work and admonished us to not leave it on the whole time or we would be charged extra. Turns out the pool heater didn’t work at all. When we checked earlier reviews, it shows a broken pool heater two months before our visit and those occupants were told it was missing a part. So don’t expect a warm pool. As this heated pool was our main reason for picking this property we feel cheated. Inside the house the main floor master suite had a noisy bed with a sunken mattress. The bunk bedroom had no heat coming in the register (yes, we checked that it was open). So those occupants slept in all their clothes just to be comfortable. At the base of the house in the middle of the carport was a weed growing out of the concrete pad with painful stickers (Sand spurs or lawn burweed) that was almost unavoidable because they had not done any yard maintenance. Overall this was a disappointing family experience.

Relaxing Experience

We came to visit and rest with family who live in Michigan. The house was a great set up for 5 adults and two dogs. The only minor issue for us was the pool wasn’t heated due to a part that didn’t come in, and it was a chilly week all else was great!

Relaxing fall stay

We enjoyed being able to stay at this property, see and hear the waves. The private pool was perfect even though the heater was broken, the owner stayed in good contact with us the entire time and even allowed for an early check in. Everything listed was accurate. Location was nice and quiet which is what we wanted to have a nice time to relax. Being able to take our dog with us was just a very nice added bonus for our trip.

Fantastic space for a group

Perfectly appointed for a stay with a decent sized group. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could need (including a plethora of spices, which is always a nice addition!) The guide book lays out all the details that you can often overlook, too, like how to load the fridge so you don't overwhelm it :D The layout of the house was perfect for hanging out and socializing but the sleeping spaces allowed for privacy, too. The pool was perfect for our group of five, and the walk to the beach is over in an instant. We will definitely return!

Family Vacation

We had two families stay here with 3 kids under 18 and 5 adults. It was perfect for our families. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and pool area. There is also available beach items to take for the short walk to the water. We highly recommend this house.

Great Rental

My family and I stayed in the property for a week for our family vacation. The property was perfect for us. It was a great location with easy access to the beach. The privaye pool was a great way to relax at the end of the day after a long day on the beach. We would definitely book again.

Second Stay

This was our second time to stay at Doodles and Dunes. We again ha d a wonderful time in this great house. Beautiful view from all the windows of the Gulf. Enjoy sitting on the front porch each morning enjoying ocean view and breeze drinking cup of coffee. Then off to the beach a very short walk and later afternoons in the pool. Tiffany is a terrific host. We will be making this our vacation spot twice every year. Oh and our two Fur Babies love it too.

Birthday Celebration

My family, including children, grandchildren, and spouses spent my birthday week at Doodles & Dunes. I cannot express in words how much fun we had. The location to the beach and bay was perfect. The views from all of the decks were spectacular. The house was beautifully decorated. We ended our days relaxing, playing and watching movies in the pool. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make our meals. Tiffany is by far the best host ever. We will be back for sure.

Great time for the most part

We had a wonderful time, the location, home and private pool was fantastic. We did have issues with the air conditioner, but the way Tiffany handled it was very professional and she was persistent in getting us help despite being in another state. As long as the air conditioning system can be remedied we have found our vacation rental to return to.
