Description
Tidal Wave is a beach lover’s dream, offering a seamless mix of relaxation, fun, and comfort right on the private sound-side beach of Dauphin Island. The home’s warm and welcoming interior gives off an elevated coastal vibe, filled with natural light, high ceilings, and thoughtful decor that blends traditional and modern styles. With a private pool, hot tub, and multiple outdoor spaces including a pergola-lit tide pool and under-house entertainment area, Tidal Wave sets the stage for unforgettable family vacations and even weddings or events.
The open-concept living and dining area creates a large social hub with an oversized sectional, playful coastal accents, and a shared double-sided fireplace. The dining room’s farmhouse table comfortably seats ten, and the adjacent bar area makes for a great spot for casual conversation. The kitchen, just off the main living space, is a galley-style layout with a large central island, wall oven, and breakfast nook with bay windows that deliver direct beach views.
The sleeping arrangements at Tidal Wave include:
• East King Bedroom (First Floor): King bed, access to Jack-and-Jill bathroom with tub, shower stall, and large countertop space.
• East Bunk Room (First Floor): Two twin-over-full bunk beds with pull-out trundles, large TV, standing arcade console, and access to the Jack-and-Jill bathroom.
• NW King Suite (First Floor): Gulf-facing windows, private bathroom with a shower stall.
• SW Bunk Room (Second Floor): Single-over-full bunk bed.
• Master King Suite (Second Floor): King bed, TV, balcony access, luxurious bathroom with raised black jetted tub, panoramic views, black granite countertops, and a sleek modern design.
• East Queen Suite (Second Floor): Queen bed, TV, private balcony access, bay window beach views, private bathroom with shower-tub combo.
The outdoor experience at Tidal Wave is just as impressive as the inside. The first-floor deck includes covered dining, a grill, and a raised deck with a private heated pool (the heated pool can be turned on for an additional fee of $200 per day) and hot tub, offering panoramic beachfront views. Down below, a pergola-lit area surrounds a natural tide pool, with Adirondack chairs and a footpath leading to the private sound-side beach. This beach is perfect for younger swimmers thanks to its gentle slope and calm waters, free from rip currents and with fewer marine hazards than Gulf-side beaches.
The under-house area is more than just storage, it’s a beach hangout zone. Hammocks offer a relaxing spot with ocean views, while the game and fitness area features cornhole, giant Jenga, a punching bag, heavy rope, plyo boxes, and a pullup bar with rings.
Tidal Wave also offers a golf cart rental option and is wedding- and event-friendly. The second-floor balcony offers shaded seating areas for enjoying the view, whether it’s morning coffee or a glowing Gulf sunset.

Peaceful Getaway
We just had an amazing getaway at this house! It felt very private and had such gorgeous views especially at sunset! The pool was one of the biggest reasons we booked this house and the kids loved it! The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed! I would definitely stay here again!
Adam Johnson says
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed Island Dream! Hope to see you again!
Regan Johnson says
Hello! My group is interested in renting the Tidal Wave home for a week next summer. I realize that this home is on the bay. Is these beach access across the street that can be used?
Thank you!
Adam says
Yes, you can access the beach via Shell Ct right across from the house.
Tracy says
Is there actually 5 king beds plus the 3 bunks?
Adam says
There are four King Beds and two bunk rooms. One bunk room has a Twin over Full. The other bunk room has two twin over fulls.
STACY PROFFER says
I’m interested in booking this property, just checking in the pool if it’s heated and if there is an additional fee?
Adam says
There is a $50/day fee to heat the pool.
Tracey Jones says
How many cars are able to park at this property? How accessible and far is the gulf beach access from this property? And can you swim on the bayside of the property? Is there a sand area for children?
Thanks in advance! This will be our first time visiting Dauphin island so I have a lot of questions.
April Harrell says
There is room for about 8-10 cars to park (depending on the size of the car). The closest access point on the gulf side is across from the property at Serigny Ct (85 feet east of your driveway). Please do not walk between houses. There is an small sandy beach on the bayside behind Tidal Wave. I recommend the little ones swim on the bay side as there is a smaller chance of an undertow or rip current. Please call or text 1-800-771-1480 with any questions you might have in the future.
Maria Cason says
How much is the event fee for a wedding?
April Harrell says
There is a 1,000.00 event fee at Tidal Wave.
Emily Alberico says
I can’t say enough about my stay at Tidal Wave! Even with chillier weather, it was a fabulous beach retreat. It was private, quiet, and incredibly serene. It rejuvenated my spirit, and I am already planning on going back in the spring and early summer. Everything was clean and pristine and tastefully decorated. It wasn’t overwhelming or kitsch. Crisp, neat, organized. It had everything we needed; it felt like a retreat. Can’t wait to go back!
