"My family of 10 loved this house right on the beach. The kids loved the water and all the water toys the home provided. It had all the essentials and then some! We absolutely loved it! The beach was incredible with white thin sand. Our Fourth of July weekend was the best ever! Thank you for letting us stay at your place!

"We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Anna Maria Island. Everything was exactly as described — clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and close to great restaurants and shops. The house had a relaxed, coastal charm that made us feel at home right away. Communication with the host was smooth and responsive. We would definitely love to come back -highly recommended!

"This place was absolutely amazing! The views of the sea and wildlife were unforgettable—we spotted dolphins and even a few manatees right from the property, which made the experience truly magical. The setting is peaceful, private, and perfect for relaxing or reconnecting with nature. The only thing that could improve the stay would be having stairs down to the private beach—it would make access much easier. Still, a beautiful spot I would definitely return to!

Fabulous Spring Break

"Our two weeks at Dolphin Watch was enjoyed by our entire family. This spacious home is located on a quiet street with the bay right in your backyard. Beautiful views of the morning sunrises or a short walk to Bean Point to watch the evening sunsets. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and cooking equipment along with a new propane grill in the back. It was apparent lots of work had been done to ready this property for our visit.
