If you plan to visit Dauphin Island, you will find very limited accommodations. I suggest that you DO NOT book a room at the Dauphin House Bed and Breakfast. Our family made the 13 hour trip to Dauphin Island from Indiana for a friend's wedding on the beach. We made accommodations (so we thought) at Dauphin House. When we arrived, exhausted from the road, there was no one at the bed and breakfast to greet us. Furthermore, they did not leave us keys to our two reserved rooms, only a phone number. We called the number only to discover that they claimed not to have us in the book of reservations, though we had spoken to them over a month and a half in advance. The woman said not to worry, that we could stay in two of the rooms for the night, but we would have to change rooms the next afternoon. Well, when we woke up we were pretty much thrown out of the Dauphin House. Did I mention we had a six month old baby with us??????? I would be less angry if my infant son were not with us, but how can anyone throw a family with a young child out? Who knows!! Not only was the woman unapologetic, but she did not even give us any clue of where to start looking for accommodations. Fortunately, after hours of searching, we found the last two rooms at the Gulf Breeze Motel. We really enjoyed the Gulf Breeze. It is across the street from the beach and the people working there were very friendly, I can't say that about the Dauphin House Bed and Breakfast.
