Simply the Best!!!

6th year on Anna Maria and this was by far our favorite house. The view is spectacular, the private beach was heavenly, the covered patio and pool were wonderful, and thank you for the heated water. It was perfect. The kitchen was well-appointed and the multiple refrigerators and wine coolers accommodated all our needs. The maintenance staff were so helpful, prompt, and we were so impressed by the service. Our guests all felt like they were in Heaven. We loved your service so much we are renting from you again next year. You made us very happy. Thank you!

Dolphin Tales was everything I thought it would be and more. We rented the house for our 27th wedding anniversary. The home has wrap around views that are stunning. Sitting in the spa and looking out to the ocean was my favorite. The home was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. We had an issue getting one of the sliders open on our first day, but we called the rental agency and within the hour they had a team out to fix the door. They were great to deal with, very attentive. I have nothing but great memories and will most definitely return.

The perfect beach house

We had such a fun time at Dolphin Tales! It’s exactly as pictured and the name does not lie- we saw dolphins almost everyday! We stayed in May and the weather was absolutely perfect. The pool and private beach make it so relaxing to just walk out the door to everything you need- especially with a two year old! The wrap around deck/view is DREAMY! We walked the mile to pine street every morning- which is very doable. Ginny and Jane’s, the donut experiment and hometown desserts were a few of our favorites. The Anna Maria island pier is also walking distance and has good lunch food! The kayaks are so nice to take out from the private beach access as well! The perfect beach house for a relaxing vacation!
