Happy Joy is a unique condo that is nestled right on the beach in Dauphin Island, Alabama. We are located on the East end of the island which is higher elevation and is protected from flooding! Yeah! Enjoy family and friends in the great room! Featuring a very spacious kitchen, dining area, and living room with beautiful leather recliners and couch (with USB charging ports and automatic reclining) and smart TV. Relax in the Sun Room by the floor-to-ceiling windows on the daybed and trundle. The master bedroom features a very comfortable king-size bed with an en-suite bath and an adjoining space we call the “Happy Room” that has a daybed and trundle, small desk and printer, and books, games, puzzles, etc. The second bedroom has a super comfortable queen bed with the second bathroom across the hall and a fun Flamingo theme! We also are sharing our beach wagon, chairs, beach toys, and small charcoal grill for your convenience! We want to make “Happy Joy” your home away from home! Walk right out the door and within 2 minutes (we timed it) you will be standing in the beach! You will pass the outdoor shower and pool as you make your way to the quiet, gorgeous white sandy beach! Another unique feature is there are NO stairs to climb in or out of the condo! The only time you will see steps is when you go down the three steps on the boardwalk that lead to the sand! Our family just purchased this condo as a “bucket list” Dream of mine. We have new furniture throughout and everything you need to have a fun and relaxing vacation! We know you will feel Happy at “Happy Joy”! ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Fenced private pool - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the condo: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Charcoal grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - Near the bay - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 1,220 square feet ## Similar properties ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/19000000/18992200/18992113/w636h476x4y4-43673179.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beach Front Dauphin Island - Large Condo Sleeps 6 Dauphin Surf Club Dauphin Island - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.4 Exceptional 89 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-31&endDate=2025-11-01&selected=18992113&PinnedHotelID=18992113&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/69000000/68930000/68920600/68920523/7ccb2419.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SunTime at the BEACH!
