Great location, but a few too many things needed maintenanceThe location on Dauphin Island was excellent, and we loved having access to the kayaks and fish traps — big plus for this property. Beach towels and chairs (4) were provided and in good shape, and the kitchen’s oven and stovetop worked great. We left the house cleaner and more organized than we found it.That said, for the nightly rate, we expected more attention to detail. The master bedroom mattress and bedding weren’t up to the standard we’d expect for the primary suite, and one of the guest bedroom doors didn’t close properly. The refrigerator’s ice maker didn’t work and there was no water filter, and the door bins were cracked (unusable without risk of breaking further). When we flagged the ice maker, the host wasn’t able to confirm whether it worked at all, just noted the cleaners say there’s bagged ice in the freezer — not a real fix.Several amenities needed repair: the ping pong balls were all dented, the beach wagon and umbrella were broken, the fishing poles were broken, and of the boogie boards only 4 were usable. Outdoors, the TV cover hinge was rusted and difficult to open, and the outdoor shower head holder was broken. We also weren’t left enough paper towels or detergent to last the stay.None of this ruined the trip, but for a listing with a perfect review history, we’d expect these basics — working appliances, usable recreational equipment, functioning fixtures, and adequate stocked supplies —
