Dolphin Dance South · Gulf Views · 3-Night Min

2BR · 1.5BA · Sleeps 6 · Panoramic Gulf Views · Palladium Windows · Two Queen Beds · Gas Grill · Shared Laundry · 2-Car Parking · 3-Night Minimum · Across from Gulf Beach

The palladium windows at Dolphin Dance South face the Gulf of Mexico — large, light-filled, and designed to put the water directly in front of you from the living room. Sunsets happen here without going outside. The beach is directly across the street.

South sleeps six on two queen beds and a sleeper sofa — the two-queen configuration makes it the better fit for two couples who both want a proper bed. The layout is townhome-style with a half bath on the main floor and bedrooms above. A gas grill is available on-site for cookouts. Shared laundry is on the property for the week's beach clothes. High-speed WiFi and flat-screen TVs throughout.

The beach is directly across the street — no busy road, just cross over and you're on the sand. Bridge Street's restaurants, bars, and shops are nearby. The free Anna Maria Island trolley stops close by for exploring the island without moving your car.

Dolphin Dance South has a 3-night minimum stay — one of the shortest on Anna Maria Island and the right choice for guests who want the island experience without committing to a full week.

Dolphin Dance South can be rented together with the North side unit next door for groups of up to twelve.

Parking is limited to two vehicles.

text communications with host were timely and provided enough info to access the property, once in unit we identified an issue with heating and communicated this via text, host responded however no service personnel attended. unit is in a great location but has issues with wear and tear, fans don't have chains to adjust speed etc, upper bathroom fan didn't work, lights on the exterior of building don't work, causing a dangerous situation when arriving or departing after sunset. Shower faucet was hard to adjust for temperature probably needs a new cartridge, shower head was awful and I replaced it with a better one with a removeable hand wand, way better. Garbage bags left for trash didn't fit the garbage pail, had to use our own. Beds and linens were good and pillows were of good quality. Its listed as pet friendly but there was dog hair on carpets and blankets. I would not stay there again, the location is good however the unit need TLC

Poor amenities

First day there the TV and internet out. We were out from Saturday till Tuesday. Track lights above dining table 3 lights only one worked. Maintenance came to check TV told about light over table he tried to fix them but after that had no light over table. That was for the qhole stay.Electric can opener did not work. Blender did not work. Pans were all bent did not sit on burners. Blinds in livingroom missing slats. NO window covering in bathroom. Lost an hour waiting for cable company to come. Thursday the AC stopped working. I will say the HVAC company was quick to responde.

Great location...thats about it.

Very disappointed with this property. If you value the location and only the location, this property is for you. The place is much smaller than anticipated and is much more worn out than what I like to stay at. First, it is missing many of the vertical window panels on multiple windows, and everyone can see in. The vents are filthy!! Not sure what the cleaning people do as there were toothpaste marks on the faucet in the bathroom. The furniture is not very comfortable, the carpeting is old and matted down, the walls have scrapes, knicks and generally not in good shape! The shower is small and has a rusty shower rod that gets rust all over your hands as the shower curtain doesn't move smoothly !! They supply no hair dryer...the first place I have ever stayed at that didn't have a dryer. There were also no coffee filters. For how inexpensive filters are you would think for spending a significant amount of money a week they could supply that, so off to the store we had to go again. The toaster also takes three times to get toast brown. We ended up leaving a day early as we were so disappointed. I will not be staying here again.

Disappointed

Didn’t realize whole flight of stairs to climb just to get into property. Blinds broken in every window. Furnishings worn and dirty appliances old and dated. Lightbulbs burnt out. Shower rod all rusted. Washer/dryer inaccessible. Pots and pans terrible. No ice maker. Property needs a makeover.

beautiful views and great location

vrbo ad was deceiving. We had no idea there were 20 steps to get to front door. We are in our 70s so those steps made it difficult to carry up groceries, clothes. The city never picked up the garbage the whole week. The renters already there in the duplex had 3 cars and stayed up all night doing laundry from 12-3am but left monday so no more awake nights as laundry is shared between units. OTHERWISE the unit was adorable, comfortable and the beach so close and such fun. Last night there we were awakened at 3am from the fire alarm and do not know what that was about..Suggestion would be to place tape or paint on last step as a women fell on that last step. You can walk to the village.

Perfect getaway

My fiancé and I booked this along with our 1 year old son. This was PERFECT! It was across a street from the beach (which it says) but it is a rather busy beach. The condo was perfect when we arrived and we loved EVERY MINUTE OF OUR STAY! We will be back
