As always, we enjoyed our stay, being just a few steps away from the beach is so convenient and we have the best morning and evening views. This spot is always our first go to place to rent when in Surfside.

Great Beach Stay
My wife and I had a great stay at the beach at Dolphin Views. The home is located right on the beach with excellent views from the deck and living room. The home was exactly as described in the listing, and was extremely clean at check in and very well furnished with everything we needed. Check-in / check-out was a breeze and we will definitely be visiting again.

This house was perfect for our stay. It’s true beachfront. I brought my dogs and they loved hanging out on the fenced deck. The house is within walking distance to Seahorse Grill which was great for dinner one night. We will definitely stay here again.
