Location is key for this beachfront vacation rental home. Perched on top of a sand dune, just passed the rock wall on Cape San Blas, it’s impossible to get any closer to the water than in Dolphin Watch. The gentle waves of the gulf hit just beyond the staircase leading from the house to the beach. On the opposite side of the house, just across the street, is the St. Joseph Bay. The bay is a marine life wonderland. Perfect for snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding and inshore fishing.

Dolphin Watch accommodates a party of 6 comfortably with 3 bedrooms on the top floor, and the living area on the main level. Each of the three bedrooms are gulf front with fantastic gulf views of the beach and access onto a large covered deck. The main floor living area is an open concept that allows everyone to spread out and enjoy one another while also taking in the breathtaking views.

*Due to accelerated beach erosion there is currently very little beach in front of this property. However, while Dolphin Watch is experiencing what nature throws at her you can reap the rewards! Use the promo code SAND to get a significant discount on any stay at the property.*

It was nice. Hearing the waves were a plus at night. The 1st night I was concerned about the swaying of the house but got used to it.

You literally can’t get Closer to the beach. Close convenience stores, great fishing, not a ton of people around that made it felt like we had a private beach. I totally recommend.

The house was awesome. Right on the beach. There’s a bed swing on the porch that is so relaxing. We spent a lot of time there watching the ocean. Will stay again!

We had a great week! The property is like being ON the water. It was so convenient to go back and forth to the beach and Sept at the beach is wonderful. The house was clean and in order. There were plenty of dishes and utensils/pots and pans for our use. The beds were comfortable. Would be nice for the middle bedroom to have 2 single beds or 4 bunk beds but I knew it was a queen ahead of time. Location is great. Love the quick bike ride to the shops and easy to get to they kayak launch for the bay. Will definitely think about renting again.

Location was wonderful! Very close to the beach. Additional items would make the stay more comfortable and enjoyable: adding a table to at least one of the balconies, placing a coffee table or end table in the living room, replacing all random coffee mugs with a nice set, replacing pots with matching lids, fixing light fixtures in the laundry room and on the top balcony. .

I'm not sure you can get closer to the water without staying on a boat.Everything was great, except for the dead fish from the red tide. That, however was not the fault of property owner, or rental company.

Wonderful property right on the beach. Even in summer the beach was not crowded like other areas on the panhandle. We were able to have our own beach fires, the kids made s’mores and we watched fireworks that some neighbors shot off. The house was very spacious and accommodated our 2 families with everyone having enough space to spread out. The views from the 2 decks were amazing and we really enjoyed watching the sunset each night and watching the dolphins play off the shore. We fished in the ocean just outside our back door and off piers in nearby Port St Joe. We hiked the trails in Deal Tract Preserve that was just a short walk down the road and the State Park at the tip of the cape. The restaurants we great, especially LongBill’s and the ice cream sundaes at The Cape Trading Post were a hit with both the kids and adults. We can’t wait to visit Dolphin Watch again!!
