About Dianne Walters
Why we chose The Dunes:
We love the peaceful surroundings and less crowded beach as well as the sweeping ocean and beach views from our 2 balconies. It is a treat to watch ships sail from the Port of Mobile.
Our young grandchildren especially love the freedom of movement on this less crowded beach and surrounding area and cherish the short walks along the beach to the uninhabited Fort Morgan property to collect those precious seashells.
This is not just a rental property. It is special to us and our second home. We have furnished, equipped and decorated it for that purpose and choose to share it with guests who are committed to caring for it during their stay.

Perfect Vacation Home for Family
What a lovely, comfortable & clean place to stay. This was my 3rd stay at Dianne’s home — I highly recommend it. Views of the beach & ocean are fantastic, & it’s not a crowded beach area. The condo is beautifully decorated with plenty of room for everyone’s belongings. There were hangers in the closets, lots of drawer space, & the beds gave us a good night’s sleep. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner & had what we needed to serve & cook the turkey & the side dishes. The oven cooked evenly & all the food came out perfectly cooked. There were 4 of us family members — 2 senior citizens, my daughter, & my teenaged grandson. The abundance of supplies (paper towels, etc) was an extra plus. The family enjoyed watching the football games on the living room TV. The layout of the living/dining room is thoughtfully arranged which makes the living area quite spacious with plenty of sitting area for everyone. There is even a desk area which my daughter used to get some Christmas calendar creating finished on her computer. We relaxed in the pool & the hot tub on-site too. Great shopping in the Gulf Shores & Foley area & we took advantage of it. We had lunch at the Copper Kettle Tea Bar in Foley & the food was delicious. Two family members had the High Tea — lots of food & brewed loose leaf hot tea—best ever! Many thanks to Dianne for sharing her home with us — we felt blessed to be there. We hope to return in the future.

Beautiful condo & location
This beautiful condo, and the Ft Morgan, AL location, helped to make our “family girls trip” fun, relaxing and memorable.
Very clean, fully stocked kitchen and amenities made us feel at home- we were sad when it came time to leave.
The beach, the gulf and pool were gorgeous.
Thank you to the Walters for sharing their wonderful condo.

Thank you for your kind words about our Dunes Beach Retreat! It is always our goal for our guests to have a 5-star experience! You are welcome back for more relaxation at any time!
Wonderful Condo
We stayed at Dunes Beach Retreat the month of February, 2023. The condo is nicely furnished with a well stocked kitchen and all the extras were great. Wonderful views. We did have some construction going on during our stay but Diane told us about it ahead of time. Diane communicates very well and quickly answered any questions that we had. We very much appreciated that Diane and Tom gave us their opportunity to stay in their condo.
Stayed February, 2023
I am so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and were very patient with the repairs being done to our building during your visit. I believe in making sure my guests have all the information they need prior to arrival; so as soon as I knew these repairs were going to be done while you were there, I wanted you to know. We enjoyed having you as our guests and hope you will stay with us again in the future!
So many Amenities and a Beautiful view
We enjoyed our stay so much. We love Fort Morgan for the ocean view, the fishing and the beach. The condo was amazing- nicely furnished, a well supplied kitchen and the extras provided by Dianne were such a nice touch! We would love to stay again!
Stayed July, 2022
It was a pleasure to host you and your family in our home and happy you found everything to your satisfaction! We look forward to your return visit!
2nd time as good as the first
We just finished a week at the Dunes. We booked the 2nd visit because we liked the first one so much. We went to the beach, the pool and the hot tub every day. Our grandson had a blast at the Dunes. We rode the ferry, visited the shops in Gulf Shores ate at Lulu's and Mo's BBQ. Both Gluten Free places - good food great service. The condo has all the utensils,pots,pans and tableware you need. Appliances top notch. Washer\dryer good to have, beds were comfy and I want that cabinet in the entry way when they redecorate. Beach themed decor and a great view of the beach and the bay. We watched many ships come and go in Mobile Bay from the two balconies. Sunsets were beautiful from beach and the those balconies. We would visit again without hesitation. Thanks for sharing your beach home with us again.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC
Our first snobird getaway from Jan thru Feb 2022 has been absolutely fantastic.
It is the nicest beach home we have stayed in gulf shores region last 20 years.
This is truly a 'Dune Resort' which has every accommodation you will need for one week or three months to enjoy this beautiful beach home. It is so clean and comfortable
We had a great location to watch the dolphins from balcony or relax on the beach.
It was a 'WOW' experience.
Thank You

Family Vacation
Our family of 5 very much enjoyed our stay! The unit was just as described and Dianne was a WONDERFUL host. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The beach was secluded and the whole condo building was never crowded. We met very nice neighbors who live there and the beach attendant Phillip was extremely friendly and very helpful. Ms. Dianne, thank you so much for having us! We loved your unit and hope to be back. The Weintraub Family: Alex, Brian, Eric, Gary, and Meredith.

We loved this condo! Very clean and spacious. The kitchen is well stocked. The owner provided many things that most places do not. Great views and location. Hope to stay again.

Amazing Stay
This condo was equipped with everything you would ever need. Beautifully decorated and a beautiful view. It is truly a "BEACH" vacation even though you could be in Gulf Shores within 20 minutes. Tacky Jacks was our go to for supper and a pizza from Sassy Bass. The ride to Dauphin Island on the ferry is about a mile away. Dianne is an amazing host and is there for you if needed. We will definitely be back.
Stayed May, 2021

Spring break
My family stayed here for spring break this year , and we were completely happy with this amazing condo. From the minute we got there we were 100 % happy and content with our choice . The area was amazing, the view was fantastic, and there wasn't one single thing we needed that wasn't available . The layout of the condo was great, the kitchen was perfect. We will definitely be back to enjoy this peaceful part of the beach .
