About this house rental
Our house is located directly on the beach! We are located on the northeast side of the island (the bay side just south of Dolphin Beach) with a beautiful sandy beach view overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. This side of the island is a hidden gem and with the small number of houses it makes our street and house very private and quiet. Not only does our 3-bedroom beach house boast breathtaking views of the ocean, but steps from the house is also an immaculate shallow swimming beach. It is ideal for families and small children. We have beach chairs and plenty of sand toys. Watch spectacular sunrises from the porch as well as spot dolphins swimming almost every day. Climb up to our crows nest to get a panoramic view of the island. Take out our double kayak and 2 paddle boards out to the sandbar or explore around the island. You will need to rent a golf cart a one is not provided for you to use as there are no cars on our island, just sandy roads, bikes, and golf carts permitted. If you are wanting to explore-head to the south end of the island where there are serene nature trails in the Preserve with miles of undeveloped land and beaches. Also enjoy our dock for excellent fishing. There are also nearby boat slips that we can recommend. Included in your stay is an Island Club Membership, which offers (as available) bicycles, kayaks, & paddle board use, 2 swimming pools, tennis courts, basketball court, and other amenities.
Our house includes 3 bedrooms. 1 queen bedroom overlooks the Gulf of Mexico. Bedroom 2 is along the side of the house and has a full bed (plus trundle) and large windows. The 3rd bedroom (technically the master) has a queen bed with a slider to the back patio and an attached bathroom with a shower. Our kitchen, dining room, and living room are all one open space. This opens up to the screened in patio. Through the kitchen you can access the washer/dryer.
Prior to your arrival, will send you information about all the logistics of traveling to a barrier island. Our family used to live full time on the island, so we have lots of experience and are happy to answer any questions you may have a boat. Please note checkin and checkout times are not flexible due to the logistics of turnover schedule. If you arrive early or depart later you’re welcome to use Island Club amenities, however, we can’t accommodate early check ins or late checkouts.

The house was very quaint. Perfect for a small family. Breathtaking views, and the host was informative and responded very quickly. We would definitely stay here again. It was a beautiful part of the island that we got to discover.

If you're searching for the perfect beach vacation, stop here — this is it.From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded expectations. The views are absolutely spectacular, and waking up right on the ocean never got old. The house itself has everything you could possibly need — thoughtfully stocked, beautifully appointed, and incredibly comfortable for our whole group.The wildlife alone was worth the trip. We spotted dolphins and manatees right from the property, which was a highlight none of us will forget. The amenities are top-notch, and the location is as good as it gets.This was a dream vacation — truly perfect in every way. We're already talking about coming back. Highest possible recommendation.

Our family of 4 loved everything about the house! The location on the beach was perfect, and made it easy for swimming, fishing, and paddle boarding/kayaking. Having access to the paddle boards and kayaks at the house was also helpful. We spent our days making the easy golf cart drive over to the gulf side to look for shells and play in the waves and then back to the house to enjoy the calmer waters. We saw dolphins and manatees daily from our beach.The house itself is cozy and well appointed. Everything was maintained and clean. Since you need to make most of your food on the island the kitchen is stocked well with small appliances, pots/pans, glasses, etc. We enjoyed the Florida room early and in the evenings.Kitty was a great hostess. She called me about a week before the trip to talk through everything we needed to know about the house and island. She gave us a contact for grocery delivery and how to meet someone to get our luggage to the house. We can’t wait to come back and stay!

We had an amazing time staying at Dolphin Watch. The beach views were amazing, the house was perfect for our group of 6 including a 12yo, 2yo & 3 month old. It was easy to enjoy the beach since it was right there. We enjoyed fishing from the dock everyday. We loved visiting the pool in the mornings. We also really enjoyed the screened in porch and panoramic views from the common areas. From before we booked all the way until the end of our trip, Kitty was the best host and always communicated with us quickly and answered all our questions, and made sure we were well taken care of. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We would absolutely crook this property again when we come back. Don’t hesitate to book! It’s amazing!
