About this house rental
POOL with great deck and screened porch.
Cant decide between the Sound and the Gulf side? Get both if you stay here at Whale Tales. Private sandy bay beach out the back door and Gulf beach access at end of the driveway.
2 Masters — 4 bedrooms, 3 baths. Spacious Architect-designed open floor plan with high ceilings. Very private on 1.25 acres of land. Huge windows with bay views everywhere in the living space. Well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer and commercial size Ice Machine (250 lbs. storage and 360 lbs. of ice made per day!!). Free wifi internet & 4 large Smart TVs. Huge screened-in deck off living room with covered area and two outdoor showers downstairs. Plenty of chairs and lounges on the decks along with gas grill. In ground adjustable basketball goal out front.
The private pier is 150 ft long with a lower dock at the end to crab, fish, swim, and dock your boat. Pole holders are mounted everywhere. Super bright lights for night fishing.
Bedrooms: King, King, Full + Twin Bunkbed, 2 Twin Bunkbeds. All bedrooms have large walk-in closet.
Luxurious upstairs private master suite has its own living room, huge walk in shower, and private deck overlooking the Sound.
The second Master bedroom is on the main level and has a King bed, TV, and private full bath.
Also on the main level are two more spacious bedrooms. One with a Full and Twin Bunkbed. The other has a pair of Twin bunkbeds. Between them is a large bathroom with double vanities and separated (by doors) toilet and shower rooms.
This is a great spot on the Island where you can see dolphins, foxes, herons, pelicans, osprey, all the sea life, and more without ever leaving the property.
Turnover Day is typically Saturday: The vast majority of rentals on this island are weekly with check-in/check-out on Saturdays. In order to avoid interruption of the norm (and avoid turning our calendar into a jigsaw puzzle), we may choose not to accept short stays or reservations that don't begin or end on a Saturday.
Pet Friendly - dog fee $25/night per dog.

The home is beautiful, spacious and well kept. The pool provided hours of relaxation. It was clean and great temperature. The guys thoroughly enjoyed catching Big Reds and their bait off the dock. The solar powered dock light allowed them to fish at the dock until all hours of the night. We made great memories!

Beautiful house with easy access to the Gulf waters. Dock off back of house was great for swimming and also fishing. We caught a lot fish and the kids had a ball. Pool off side of house is perfect and well maintained. We went to the Gulf beach off front of house which is a short walk away and quiet and nice. Beautiful views of sunset at night. Would recommend and stay again at this house on Dauphin island.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Oct 2024
Place was clean and spacious. Great views from the back porch of the bay. Upstairs Master Suite is huge and it's private, and also has it's own deck which had great views. Kitchen and pantry were big. We were there in Oct and pool was too cold to use, even though the VRBO listing touts that it has a pool. Should be a caveat that pool is too cold to swim in. Very disappointing for the kids. The private dock is also not great. It is completely covered in seagull droppings and one of the piers has slipped (or broke) which made the dock quite slanted and a bit precarious for about 20 feet to walk on. And finally, the pots and pans are so scratched and beat up - hard to understand why they would not be replaced. VRBO has it rated "Exceptional". I disagree. It's OK.
