This is an amazing Gulf-front property that you and your family will enjoy and will want to return to for many years to come! The well maintained, beautifully constructed townhome has two balconies that face the Gulf and look directly out to almost astonishing emerald green and sapphire blue water. The Dory is conveniently located in the heart of Perdido Key, but it feels like a secret spot. The shopping, local attractions and fine dining to be found in Downtown Pensacola and Orange Beach are just short drives away. PKRM guests are invited to take advantage of complimentary excursions like golf at Lost Key, deep sea fishing, cruises on Perdido Key's beautiful local waterways and even admission to OWA Amusement Park. Each reservation comes with the opportunity to enjoy one fun excursion per day.

The custom unit is decorated with stylish, comfortable furnishings. There are flat screen televisions in every room along with many features to enjoy. Guests love that there is plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable and stretch out with 3 bedrooms and 2 1/4 baths. There are multiple sleeping configurations to accommodate up to 9 people.

Although the view of the beach from the downstairs patio was obstructed by sand hills and weeds, we were easily able to walk over the hump and go straight to the water. The kids had a lot of fun. The house was spacious and clean. Wish we had more beach chairs and umbrellas, kid toys but we just went down to the store across the street to buy some, no biggie, just come prepared with those. I'd recommend this place because it was private, silent, and well-maintained property. I'd stay here again if we ever visit Perdido Key in the future. Management was quick in responding to small details and observations. No issues.

Perfect for Family Vacay

We had a great time with family at this property! We all live in different areas so it was great getting to come and stay on the beach as a family. The townhouse was nice - grateful it had a baby gate for the stairs and we really enjoyed the area. Perfect location!! We would love to come back next year! Also, the guys loved the golf course - thanks for the coupon!!

Vacation at the Dory 2024

property turned out great. we have stayed at another property in Perdido Key the last several years. check in was smooth. and the best thing was offer to check in early on Saturday. that gave us the whole day Saturday to enjoy the beach. the unit also had chairs and umbrellas available on ground floor that we could use. was a real plus+ ! this unit conveniently located to access all of Perdido Key. We will likely book it again for next year. Highly recommend this place.

Great family vacation!

We love this condo. This is the third time we have stayed here. Plenty of sleeping room for our family of 8. The kitchen is supplied with all the necessities. Everything is close to the condo when we do leave the beach. It is perfect. We can’t wait to go back.

Great place to stay, short walk to the beach and looked just as the pictures show. Great for a family. We loved our week there and just a short drive to everything you need. Quiet area out of the way from all the craziness. Would definitely stay again.

Location, location, location!

The Dory was equipped with everything we needed for a week at the coast, and even with multiple adults, there was plenty of room for everyone relax. A short path led to the beach. Although it wasn’t crowded during our stay, it was nice to see that the area immediately behind the condo is marked off for her guests. Each unit is allowed only two parking spaces, which would likely be more than enough for most families. We had four vehicles to park, so we did have to utilize off-site parking (just a 5 minute drive down the road). The only truly negative issue we had was when my daughter stepped off the patio and onto a rusty nail (likely fallen from the overhead platform supporting the air conditioning unit). Since it punctured her heel she received a tetanus shot at a local urgent care, along with instructions to stay off the beach for the remainder of our stay. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Dory, and would definitely consider returning should we ever be in the Pensacola area again.

Perfect location

Perfect location! Very quiet area just a short drive from things to do. We really enjoyed the private beach. Home had everything needed for our stay, including beach chairs. Check in and check out instructions had me slightly confused, but maybe it’s just me. Instructions said to tell Alexa unit we were checking out but I didn’t see any Alexa. Also couldn’t figure out the fancy thermostat. Home was clean, well stocked with needed items, and felt safe. All the other units had a hose outside for rinsing off after the beach, but this one didn’t. That would be my only suggestion for improvement, a hose to rinse. This was a great family trip and many wonderful memories made and we thank you for hosting such a wonderful time.

It was a fun stay

This is a beautiful clean townhouse and well provided kitchen. The view from the property is beautiful and the beach was clean and not super busy and like the fact that it was a private beach for the townhouse. It is a perfect place to vacation with the kids. The only downside is we were short on some comforters but otherwise it was a great stay .

We really enjoyed our stay at The Dory. Super clean, had everything we needed, and we loved being right on the beach. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the things you might need. That hasn’t been the case in other places we have stayed. I do wish there was a space for pantry type food but we made it work. We will be back for sure.

Great location, subpar cleanliness and service

There were two primary negatives with the property. 1) The dryer was not working. The management company admitted that a part was on order and a temporary repair had been executed prior to our arrival. The part was not due in until after our departure. It tioj two phone calls and going to the management office in person before they offered any solution to the issue, which was to let us use another property near by that was not rented, to wash our laundry (for a day). This is obviously less than optimal when the purpose of renting a beach house for a week is to enjoy the water. 2) We discovered mouse feces in the cushions of some of the living room furniture the afternoon before we departed and there was mold/mildew on the base boards in the upstairs bathroom. That being said, the location was really good, easy driving distance to the National Seashore and Orange Beach if you wanted more dining options. The beach was right out the back door and the view from both blaconies was great.
