While you’re there

Check out some of our favorite parts of Dauphin Island. Sourced from our local teams who live there.

Lighthouse Bakery

Melt-in-your-mouth cinnamon rolls, homemade fruit turnovers, massive Sunday omelets, and freshly roasted lattes. The kind of from-scratch, made-with-love morning spot that turns breakfast into the highlight of your day.

BGH Cafe

Your go-to takeout spot near the Ferry Boat Landing—Paninis, Po-Boys, and Wraps alongside old-school soft serve, malts, and specialty espresso drinks.

Dockside Seafood

From boat to plate, this Dauphin Island gem delivers the freshest, most responsibly sourced Gulf Coast seafood around—where family ownership, local fishermen, and a passion for quality come together.

Pirate’s Bar & Grill

Voted the best food on Dauphin Island—scratch-made everything, fresh Gulf seafood, legendary Wing Wednesdays, and the original Dauphin Island Bushwacker, all in one unforgettable island dining experience.

Dority’s Bar & Grill

Great food, cold drinks, live music, and genuine Southern hospitality in the most inviting outdoor setting on the island. Less like dining out, more like a party at your favorite neighbor's house.

Miguel’s Beach’n Baja

West Coast vibes meet Gulf Coast soul—everything made fresh, the tacos are legendary, and the homemade salsa alone is worth the trip.

Reel Deal BBQ & Seafood

Finger-licking barbecue, crispy fried seafood, and cold milkshakes on a shady covered deck. The kind of casual Dauphin Island gem that makes every meal feel like a perfect summer day.

The Carriage: Wine & Market

Curated fine wines, craft beers, artisanal cheeses, and chef-inspired seasonal dishes in a warm, welcoming space where every visit feels like a celebration.

Dauphin Island Pier

A one-of-a-kind coastal landmark with a fascinating history dating back to the 1600s—now a free, scenic destination with stunning Gulf views, easy beach access, and the perfect setting for a picnic and a stroll.

Loved our stay on Dauphin Island! Kitchen equipment is minimal (the toaster didn’t work), and no basic cooking supplies like spices/oils, foil etc. More like a hotel with accommodations rather than a “traditional” AirBnB where it has that lived-in-home feeling - which is understandable as it’s run and managed by a corporation/property management company rather than an individual homeowner. Some aspects of the property can use some upgrades - the stairs and deck are very worn, as well as the trim/cabinets. The area was great, close proximity to all of the things we wanted to do and the neighborhood felt safe. We would definitely stay here again.

My family and I had such a wonderful vacation. It was our first family vacation and it turned out so amazing. The home was clean and located in a very convenient spot. The walk to the beach only took a few minutes. I thought it was pretty cool that you can rent golf carts and drive those around the island. There were a few things that could use a little tlc but nothing that was an inconvenience to our stay and I let the host know so they were aware. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely come back. The location was excellent, and the short walk to the beach made it easy with young kids. Gas grill was one of the cleanest we’ve ever seen at a vacation rental.

We had a couple of minor issues during our stay, but the management team was incredibly responsive and resolved everything quickly. Their communication and customer service really stood out.

Overall, the house was exactly what we were looking for. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing Dauphin Island getaway.

The home was in an amazing location, conveniently close to both the bay and gulf beaches, as well as nearby sites, shops, and restaurants on the island. We loved the porch during the morning and early afternoon shade and the beds were comfortable. However, the home could benefit from some updates, including new carpets and furniture, as the current ones are worn and stained. Additionally, small things would have helped too, such as the kitchen, while equipped with the basics, needs new pans and essential items like salt, pepper, and basic seasonings. Some light bulbs were out and many remotes need new batteries. The bikes listed were rusted and not functional. The home was good but could have been great with just a little care and TLC.
