The Pearl of Dauphin Island

B15. Location was awesome! Allen at the property went above and beyond before we arrived and during our stay. The grounds were nice, bathrooms at the pool, near the beach was a great amenity. The price made the icky parts bearable. They had a lot of extras, such as a cart to haul things to the beach, buckets, olive oil, books and coffee filters available inside. The available parking was great

The place was DIRTY! The place was definitely in need of a redo and the cleaning crew should probably be dismissed. There was stains on the floor that would have come up if the place had been mopped, crumbs/food on the chair cushions and rug that would have been gone if they had vacuumed and spots in the shower that needed bleach. The couches were disgusting and we put the extra sheets over it to be able to use the living room. From the front load washing machine I retrieved a lighter, 3 shells, and an entire handful of paper from the seal before washing our first load . The beds were extremly comfortable , however I used a blanket we brought because the coverlet in the master had weird stains and the dust ruffles were absolutely gross. The sheets were clean. My husband tightened all the chairs at the table just so we could sit in them. The kitchen was well stocked but the pan we decided to use had been put away with eggs STILL in it! The more you looked, the worse it got, we decided to just settle in and enjoy the trip , thankful for a place to stay all together. This place has 9.0 exceptional rating....HAD TO HAVE BEEN ANOTHER UNIT! Ours needed new paint, a furniture overhaul, and someone to evaluate the bedspreads,dust ruffles, and towels for cleanliness.
