Beautiful!

We had a lovely stay. The property has beautiful water views from inside and outside, day or night. There's plenty of outdoor space and seating and umbrellas for shade, if needed. The interior is nicely decorated and well appointed. We found it incredibly clean and everything we needed was on hand. Fantastic experience.

Beautiful Stay at Sunsets and Dolphins

We stayed in the area to explore the natural springs and really wanted to stay on the water to enhance our vacation. We loved this cute little house right on the canal. We sat out and looked at stars and chatted each evening. The couch was comfy for watching a movie and the beds were also comfortable. It was the right fit for us - not too elaborate or expensive but still very cute and convenient. Book this for your next trip to the area!

Quiet Getaway

My husband and I were looking for a place on the water near the gulf. This house filled the bill. We were also on a fact finding mission for future trips with our kids and friends. House is comfortable with 3 bedrooms and 2 5 baths. Lots of great seating areas. We'll be back.

Beautiful!

We had a wonderful experience at this property. It's in a beautiful spot with great views day and night, inside and out. There is an abundance of outdoor space and seating and a couple of large umbrellas. Inside, the air conditioning works great even with the 100 degree days. The interior is nicely decorated and comfortably appointed. We found it to be incredibly clean. Everything we needed was there. There was a slight snag with check in, but the property manager went above and beyond to make up for it. Also worth mentioning is the no-fuss check out procedure. Again, is was a wonderful stay.
