"We had a wonderful time. The house had plenty of seating for the group we had, in addition the kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils/plates and cups for the group. We had a few issues and ACP responded and came same day to fix/address the issues. Was impressed with the communication. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the beautiful views. The deck was a hit for the group. Covered with seating for all. Will definitely come back and stay here again.

Whale of a tale was wonderful!

Review Date: June 29, 2023

"There were 11 (one a toddler) of us in this house for a week and we all plenty of room. We all loved the fact that each bedroom had it’s own private bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked and the owners have provided internet in case you need to work remotely. The beach is just a few steps off the stairs from the back deck. This was our first visit to Dauphin Island and it is very remote. No grocery store and not many restaurants. We cooked in a few nights which is the best way to go for dinner here. I highly recommend this house for your next stay! The only drawback to this house is that there is no lift for your luggage or groceries. You have to carry everything up a flight of stairs to the front door. We still loved the house though.

"We had the best week at Dauphin Island. Whale of a Tale was a beautiful beach house that accommodated our family perfectly. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots/pans to cook meals and the washer and dryer was so helpful keeping up with our laundry. The back deck was our favorite part. So relaxing. We spent most of our time on the porch and right down the steps at the beach. We loved Whale of a Tale and can’t wait for our next trip back .

"Beautiful house located nearly on the gulf with the water a few steps away. Well worth the money. The deck is amazing! Only thing to note is that there is a new house being built to the left of the house which partially blocks the view of the gulf. This is not reflected in some of the pictures. You still have a view through the two houses on the left and right of property, plus the wonderful sounds of the waves. We would stay here again.

"Everything about this house was fantastic! We had everything we needed and the house was located exactly where we wanted to be. We've been visiting Dauphin Island for 50 years and have rented from various real estate companies. Our last three visits over the past 10 months have been with ACP Vacation Rentals and they are definitely the best on the island! We will absolutely rent from ACP for all future visits.

"Beautiful and spacious house on the west end of Dauphin Island. It was super clean and had most everything we could ask for! We loved having an upper and lower deck and the 2 king sized beds. It was perfect for our family and we plan to stay again next year. I really enjoyed chatting with Amy in the ACP office, as well, and feel like I made a fast friend. This company couldn't have been more hospitable!
