We absolutely loved our stay here. It was perfect for our family of 10. We had our own personal area on the beach and the pool was a big hit with the grands. Highly recommend this place

The house was clean and comfortable. The air conditioner on the main level struggled but when I reached out about it, this issue was promptly dealt with. Really enjoyed sitting on the balcony- watching the waves and hearing the ocean. Very relaxing. Booked for next year.

😎 Awesome! Thanks Shane! "No problems or complaints" — I'll take that every time. Glad Dancing Dolphin was great for you all and that the comms kept you in the loop. Reach out with any suggestions for DD, or when you're ready to lock in a return — she books early for summer! Thanks again! 🙏

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dancing Dolphin. The house worked perfectly for our crew - 8 adults and three children. The bedroom arrangement worked well for us, and the common area was nice and large for everyone to gather. Being on the beach was ideal - a simple walk out. And having a covered pool gave us more outside time without too much sun. We would definitely come back!

🥳 Awesome! Thanks Kristine. So glad Dancing Dolphin worked perfectly for your crew of 8 adults and 3 kids — the bedroom setup, that big common area for everyone to gather, and being right on the beach with a simple walk out. And you get the covered pool! Folks sometimes wonder about it, but you nailed why it's a plus — more outside time, less sun. So glad you'd come back! Thank you so much for the 5-star review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Any suggestions for DD? Or ready to set up that return? I'd love to hear from you. Thanks so much for staying in our home! 🏖️

😁 Thanks Stephen! Glad you had a wonderful ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 star stay at Dancing Dolphin. Great place. Beachfront. Sheltered pool. Private. Nice open beach that feels like its your own, and high chance of dolphin 🐬 (and sometimes Blue Angel) sightings! What's not to love! 🥰 We'd be happy to have you all back anytime for more sand, surf, wonderful food 🦐 and dolphins 🐬! Reach out when ready to lock it in. Dancing Dolphin goes super early each year. Don't miss out! 😉 Thanks again! 🙏

[😊 Thanks Carroll! Glad you all had a great time, loved the home, location, and is was perfect for your large family. Gotta wonder how that 5th star got lost from the rest of her buddies. I tried reaching out a few times to check in on suggestions you might have but no word. If you have a moment to reach out, would love to hear what we can do to help the wayward one for your next trip to get the band back together: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 😉. Thanks again! 🙏]
