Dancing Dolphin Is A Beautiful 5BR. Nothing Between You And The Gulf But Sand!
Dancing Dolphin 2193 West Beach Blvd
Summer 2026 is ALMOST GONE and 2027 is filling up REAL FAST! Still looking for 2026? Contact us ASAP.
Don't forget, peak season is in swing and during peak season, we book Saturday to Saturday. So, if you're looking and don't see any availability, check to see if your stay duration falls under those parameters as that usually is the problem :) But, as always, feel free to reach out as we are always happy to help!
DANCING DOLPHIN: GORGEOUS. RELAXING. POOL. BEACH.
Dancing Dolphin is a gorgeous stand-alone, beachfront, home that is located directly on the Gulf! It has 10 foot ceilings with crown molding, is professionally decorated, and has wonderful gulf views from most rooms, including 4 out of 5 bedrooms!
Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge (varies by season and with gas market price, has been $60-85 per night, just inquire, and must be for length of stay (this is based on market pricing for propane gas, and can change at any time, both up and down, until added to a reservation). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a week before check in so we can get it on before you arrive.
Comfortably sleeping 21 with four of the five bedrooms located on the gulf side so you can wake up to the water out your window. The Dancing Dolphin in Gulf Shores also has a large open living/dining/kitchen area, and includes TWO Gulf Front Master Bedrooms, each with its own tub and separate shower.
Main Floor Bedroom: King 3rd Floor NW Bedroom: King 3rd Floor Middle Bedroom: Twin Bunk + Twin over Full Bunk 3rd Floor SE Bedroom: King + Bunk 3rd Floor SW Bedroom: 2 Queens + QSS
Main Floor Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa
Other amenities at the Dancing Dolphin in Gulf Shores include a POOL, televisions, cable, internet, central air, ceiling fans throughout, TWO refrigerators with ice makers, washer & dryer, 2 dishwashers, outside showers and a picnic table.

BONUS FRIDGE AND DISHWASHER Yep. TWO refrigerators and two dishwashers... You won't want to ever have just one again!
PARKING There is available onsite parking for at least 8 cars. In fact, you could park more cars than you should be driving for a 21 person home! Inquire if you have special vehicle needs.
WIFI/INTERNET YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid and ran > 100Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!
SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.
PETS We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Please inquire.
No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!
That's it! We think you'll have a great stay in our home. Reach out and let us know how we can help!
SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer.
We have several other homes, some with elevators, and some really big ones (12 bedrooms!). One as small as a 3BR on the lagoon. Send us a note if you have other needs. Need more? Blue Heron is a door down? Get TWO homes right by each other. Or, how about FOUR? Blue Heron, Dancing Dolphin, Egret and Erica's Sandpiper are all less than .2 miles apart! Best wishes. Rick

😁 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! 🙏

I tried reaching out a few times to check in on suggestions you might have but no word.

We had a wonderful time! We enjoyed the pool, beach, game time on the dining tables and were able to cook or order out all of our meals. We are traveling next May, so we are passing on booking for 2026. But we hope to be back and wouldn't consider any other house for our family beach vacation. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

This is a great home for your family vacation! The assortment of bedrooms should meet any size of group. The location and the private walk to the beach is perfect. We really enjoyed sitting on the balconies, beachfront is the way to go!

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Rick Goldsworthy
Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!
My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf.
I truly love the Dancing Dolphin. Its not our biggest home, but it just feels right. We stayed here long term one year when a hurricane (yuck) took out our primary residence. The feel of the Dancing Dolphin is just like home. Comfortable. Nice. Let me now if you need a bigger place or different options and I can probably help you.
