If you’re reading this, stop and book your stay now. This was by far the most generous vacation rental we’ve ever had. It had everything we could possibly need during our stay. We’ve never had so many options for coffee supplied at a rental and had a great coffee shop nearby. Everything was like new, comfortable and super clean. The location is amazing and it’s super easy to access both the beach and the main intracoastal channel. We loved getting everywhere we wanted to go locally on the supplied beach cruiser bikes. It was a fantastic stay and we’ll be back!

This was our second time staying at Thomas and Nicole’s Dolphin Bay. We rented the whole duplex & brought the parents. We absolutely love this beautiful property. They are the perfect hosts and make our stay so easy, peaceful, and enjoyable. The property has everything you need for vacation. Beautiful view of the bay, couple minute walk to the beach, SUPs, kayaks, fishing, & wagons and chairs for the beach. There are so many amazing restaurants right within a 5-10 minute walk. This place and Nicole and Thomas are 5 stars all around and we will be coming back for a third time hopefully next year!

This place was great! Everything was well thought out. The house had everything you could need. Wagons, beach chairs, umbrellas, cooking supplies, coffee supplies, and the list goes on. The place was beautiful and comfortable. The beauty and quiet of waking up on the bay made for peaceful mornings. The wagon made the super short walks to the beach even easier. We enjoyed cooking in the house and big breakfasts on the black stone. The owners were quick to respond with any needs and even brought over a small cooler for us to use. We had a great time at this place and we would definitely stay here again!

We had the pleasure of staying at this location. It is incredibly clean, and the host was incredible answering all of the questions we had. It is a 2 minute walk to the beautiful beach and the dining options (by foot) are great (we did not have a car on this trip). Looking forward to staying here again!
