Prepare for the "wows" as you pull up to Dolphin Tales, our water front home overlooking the sparkling Bay!
Located on the North End of Anna Maria, our home welcomes you with stunning views and relaxing and peaceful outdoor spaces.
Each of the three king bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom, TV, and sliding glass door access to the wrap around deck. Wake up to sunshine and the sea!
Outfitted with all the comforts of home, meals are a breeze in this kitchen. With breakfast bar seating and a dining table for 8, cooking in or taking out from nearby local favorites is comfortable and easy. A BBQ grill is also provided if you'd like to grill up the catch of the day! Dine al fresco in one of the sections of the wrap around deck.
Relax in the comfortable living room while catching up with your favorite TV show. Complimentary WIFI is available for everyone's devices.
Start your day with your morning coffee up on the top deck, known as the crows nest, while taking in the sunrise. It's the perfect place to welcome the adventures of the day.
Located on the ground level and steps from your own private beach, you will love the sparkling pool and spa. There's something special about being in the water while overlooking the water. Hopefully, you'll be inspired to tell your own Dolphin Tale!
There is a fully refundable $500.00 Deposit for use of the Elevator. The elevator services the ground level to the 2nd floor deck. If you are booking online and would like use of the elevator during your stay please contact us after booking so that we can add the Elevator Deposit to your reservation.
