Good

Overall was a nice stay and perfect location. Do know there are a lot of stairs involved.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The pictures of Dolphin Dance and Cortez beach across the street were amazing, but they did could not truly capture the magic that is Anna Maria Island. To look out every window and see turquoise water that is crystal clear when you make the one minute walk to the beach was a huge blessing for our families. We would set up the tent in the morning and conveniently hop back to the house for lunch or rest. The South unit has new furniture and carpet, and that was wonderful for my allergies. It was spotlessly clean too. There is an adorable “mama’s reading nook” in the master bedroom where I spent many mornings sipping coffee alone and staring at the beautiful sea. The duplex was well-equipped and new appliances are on the way to match the updated north condo. We went with our besties and their children. There is a shared laundry room, and both the children and my bestie and I enjoyed meeting there and going through “the portal” into the other unit. The management company is top-notch. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. They immediately responded to our request for brooms and provided such a great starter pack That we did not need to use many of our supplies. I would suggest bringing your own beach chairs and sand toys. There are plenty of towels and sheets and pillows, but bringing extra beach towels is always a good idea. We want to come back next year and stay in Dolphin Dance. Well done!

Great house! Great location! Right across the street from the beach!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is in a great location but it is not well maintained and it needs a very, very very deep cleaning.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My sister and I rented both units of Dolphin Dance for our families to come together from different states to share Thanksgiving at the beach. This space was ideal for combining both families, while still having some separation when needed. The location was fantastic, with a 1 minute walk across the street to uncrowded beach access (as opposed to the miserably overcrowded Holmes Beach on the island). The units were both well cleaned, but if we had to pick one over the other, the 803 unit was in much better condition than the 805 unit. There's many updates needed in 805. The furniture in both units could definitely be replaced/updated, as both living room units are dated/stained leather. All 4 beds were miserably hard. The listing states 2 Kings/2 Doubles. That is not accurate. It is actually 2 Queens/2 Doubles. We assumed the pictures may not have ben accurate and wished we'd confirmed accuracy before booking. The listing needs updated to eliminate the confusion. The sleeper sofas are terrible, but both are full sized. The listing is more accurate if noted that both units sleeps 8, somewhat comfortably. The unit is on S Gulf St, which jams up every single evening for 2-3 hours, so that is something to note if you are concerned with traffic issues or plan accordingly. The overall location is amazing, with quick walking distance to both bay and gulf, as well as to Bridge Street. We would definitely stay at Dolphin Dance again, if we book without having our senior mother along with us (the steps proved to be just too much for an aged, old body). We enjoyed our stay so much (more time at the uncrowded beach for the win) that we requested an extra night, which the management company welcomed without hassle.

We would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to a nice vacation rental!

This was perfect for the 8 of us visiting AMI. We rented both units We had 3 couples and 2 single adults. One adult had to sleep on pull out couch.. The views of the gulf are beautiful from the rental. The place could use a deep clean and some TLC but it worked for us.

Excellent location right across street from beach and walking distance to food and shops. Management responsive to requests. Be prepared to share 1 1/2 baths per unit. Had a great time.

Overall the house was great. Cleaning needs to be a little better. Check in and out process was a breeze. Kitchen is not stocked with much so make note of this. However, we utilized both units and was able to share utensils/pots etc. Location was perfect for us. There are lots of stairs so beware if anyone in your party has issues.
