About this property

Gulf Shores Getaway w/Large Pool – 1 Mile to the Beach!

  • You will love this ground-floor condo the minute you walk in the door! Dolphin Villas is located just over 1 mile from the beautiful beaches of Gulf Shores and the public beach access. Perfect for a family vacation, couples’ getaway, or someone that wants peace and quiet time by themselves. "Our Sweet Home in Alabama” feels like your home away from home.

    The kitchen has everything you need if you would like to cook. All appliances are stainless steel, and the laundry room is equipped with a full-size washer & dryer. The pool is located across the parking lot just a short walk from the condo. There are chairs and tables there for your use.

    Our home is smoke-free, however, there is an ashtray provided on the back porch for those who smoke. Wal-mart is just 2 blocks away!! Hwy 59, which leads to the beach, is just one block away and offers a plethora of things for you to do which includes lots of restaurants & shopping.

    Our rates are lower than most hotels in the area so why would you stay in a small hotel room when you can have a 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo with all the conveniences of home? Try our Dolphin Villa…we are sure you will like it! Thank you again for considering us for your vacation destination.

Great hidden gem

This condo is quiet and wonderful. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect since this sits back off of the main road and is away from the beach, but it is fantastic. I stayed here with a buddy while we were visiting friends in the area. This condo is close to everything and yet perfectly removed to be quiet and peaceful. Don't miss out on staying here. You won't be disappointed!

Guys Fishing Trip

I rented this place for my boyfriend and his dad's fishing trip. They were both impressed by the condo. It was clean and ready when they arrived. Both were comfortable for the duration of the trip, and he kept bragging about the location for what they needed. All in all it was a great stay for them, and Cindy was excellent at communicating with me about anything I needed to know about the condo.

Wedding Trip

When we got to the condo and got inside our first impression was excellent. The bedrooms were very spacious and beds were very comfortable. The master bathroom was great. Double sinks, cabinets, and a very nice large closet in there. Kitchen was supplied with everything we needed. The living room and dining room area were very nice, spacious, and comfortable. Our trip was for my grandsons wedding. The wedding and reception were both very close to where we were staying. Our overall stay and experience was excellent. The only thing if you could leave directions on how to get into the stations on the TV. Other than that everything was excellent. The owners were also very nice and very easy to deal with. Thank you so much Cindy.

Perfect for us

Four +60 adults (two couples). The place is beautiful. Plenty of room. Very hot water. Would’ve liked just a little more pressure in the master shower but that’s just me. Perfectly fine for everyone else. Nice large fridge. Really liked the combo Keurig/carafe coffee maker. Lots of Tv channels but didn’t watch much. Nice short drive to either public beach or state park beach. Still can’t figure out 26mph speed limit to the state park! Clean, comfortable, convenient location. Cindy was VERY quick responding to questions! Consummate host!
