Some friends and I stayed here our first night in town for a conference. It was very nice and clean and the beds are very comfy. The staff was very friendly as well. Walking distance to the beach which was a dream all in itself.

We just returned from our stay at The Island House in Orange Beach, Alabama. I have absoultely nothing negative to say about our experience. Everyone seemed to go above and beyond to ensure that our stay was pleasant. We arrived around 10:30 a.m. and they allowed us to check in early. The ocean front view from our balcony was so beautiful and relaxing. This was our first stay at The Island House, but will not be our last.

We stayed at the Island House Hotel in May with a group from Northern Ireland. We were on a 10 day tour and stayed 2 days . The only thing you could say about the hotel is wonderful. The view from all the rooms was beautiful. Waking up to see the Gulf of Mexico from your balcony in the morning was a truly wonderful experience. The rooms were large, with great comfortable beds, balcony and spotless. The buffet breakfast was everything you could wish for. The service was second to none. The pool area was well laid out and also spotless. All I can say is we hope to return to the Island House Hotel if we ever travel to that area again. Thanks to all the staff who made our short stay such a memorable one.

We stayed ot the Island House the week of July 16-22. The hotel is in a great location and the beaches were absolutely great. and not croweded at all. We did have a few Jelly fish move in by weeks end but all in all the water was blue , clean and warm. The kids really had a great time. The hotel was very clean and well priced compared to many of the others along the beach. The rooms are not fancy and I would compare them to a Hampton or Holiday inn Express. The view is absolutely awesome. All the rooms face the beach and the balcony is spacious enough to seat 2-3 people. The pool was large and very clean with an abudent of lounge chairs and tables w/ umbrellas. It's a short walk to the beach and the sands are sugar white and very clean. The Cafe' inside the Hotel is very convenient and the food was very good for a quick bite or breakfast in the morning. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. It closes at 3pm and room service is not offered afterwards. The Coke machines in the hotel are not kept up very well and it's essentially "luck" if you receive the correct selection. There are a lot of family activities in the area besides the beach. Waterville is a large water park located on Hwy 59 approx 9 miles from the Hotel. The kids really enjoyed the slides but get there early otherwise the crowds show up and the wait times increase. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Dolphin Express Cruises. Capt Ritchie runs a top notch operation and the cruise was AWESOME. If you want to see dolphins up close and experience a very relaxing boat ride this is absolutely the one to choose. The whole family had a really good time. The cruise takes about 90 mins. Resturants in the area I recommed: Cottens Resturant (only 2 miles from the Hotel on 182) was some of the best food we ate. Great staff and even better food. Get there early (4:30 pm) to avoid the crowds otherwise expect to wait for 45 mins + after 6 pm. All in all the experience at the Island House was very good. I would recommend to anyone looking for a resonably priced Family hotel
