Nothing Between You And The Gulf But Sand! Dancing Dolphin 2193 West Beach Blvd DANCING DOLPHIN: GORGEOUS. RELAXING. POOL. BEACH. UPDATE 2023-06-02: Yay! New pics from the big reno. Had to wait for a little break in the bookings! UPDATE: 2022-11. Big renovation complete. All new floors, decks, countertops, living room furnishings, and so much more. Brand new virtual tour! The Dancing Dolphin is a gorgeous home that is located directly on the Gulf! It has 10 foot ceilings with crown molding, is professionally decorated, and has wonderful gulf views from most rooms, including 4 out of 5 bedrooms! Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge (varies by season and with gas market price, has been $60-85 per night, just inquire, and must be for length of stay (this is based on market pricing for propane gas, and can change at any time, both up and down, until added to a reservation). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a week before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. Comfortably sleeping 21 with four of the five bedrooms located on the gulf side so you can wake up to the water out your window. The Dancing Dolphin in Gulf Shores also has a large open living/dining/kitchen area, and includes TWO Gulf Front Master Bedrooms, each with its own tub and separate shower. Main Floor Bedroom: King 3rd Floor NW Bedroom: King 3rd Floor Middle Bedroom: Twin Bunk + Twin over Full Bunk 3rd Floor SE Bedroom: King + Bunk 3rd Floor SW Bedroom: 2 Queens + QSS Main Floor Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa Other amenities at the Dancing Dolphin in Gulf Shores include a POOL, televisions, cable, internet, central air, ceiling fans throughout, TWO refrigerators with ice makers, washer & dryer, 2 dishwashers, outside showers and a picnic table. BONUS FRIDGE AND DISHWASHER Yep. TWO refrigerators and two dishwashers... You won't want to ever have just one again! PARKING There is available onsite parking for at least 8 cars. In fact, you could park more cars than you should be driving for a 21 person home! Inquire if you have special vehicle needs. WIFI/INTERNET YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid and ran > 100Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction! SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well. PETS We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Please inquire. No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time! That's it! We think you'll have a great stay in our home. Reach out and let us know how we can help! SNOWBIRDS! Up to 2/3rds off for off-season stays of 28 days or longer. We have several other homes, some with elevators, and some really big ones (12 bedrooms!). One as small as a 3BR on the lagoon. Send us a note if you have other needs. Need more? Blue Heron is a door down? Get TWO homes right by each other. Or, how about FOUR? Blue Heron, Dancing Dolphin, Egret and Erica's Sandpiper are all less than .2 miles apart! Best wishes.

May 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Family Vacation spot! We stayed at the Dancing Dolphin in late April with our family which included 7 adults, a 3-yr old and a 1-yr old. It was the perfect house for us. Everyone had their own spacious bedroom and bathroom, along with a very open and roomy kitchen and great room. Being right on the beach with a covered pool was great! Having 2 full refrigerators and 2 full size ovens was fantastic. The only negatives we had were a couple of bug sightings, a cool pool (even though it was heated to 82 degrees), and the a/c on the main floor didn't circulate well in the bedroom. We will likely rent again for our next family vacation! ##### Lynn S.

Apr 25, 2024 #### Dancing Dolphin long term fall stay We very much enjoyed Dancing Dolphin, had everything we needed from a great view and the proximity to beach was awesome. Everything about the house made sense and when a few bulbs stopped working someone from Bama Beach house was there to resolve in literally a matter of minutes. We cooked a lot and the spacious kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. You and your family (I spoke to Terry a couple times during the stay) were wonderful to work with and will definitely be my first stop shop for my fall reservations. ##### Dren M.

Even though the weather was a little cold, we had a great time. The house was very large and in good condition. The location was excellent, right on the beach and near some great seafood (takeout for us, since it was covid times). We saw dolphins almost every day from our windows. And the property manager was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend. ##### Virginia M.

We had a wonderful time last week. It was our first trip to the area and we loved it. The location and beach were incredible! We swam with all sorts of wildlife including a shark, stingray, manatees (a pod of 5) dolphins and an array of smaller fish! The house was perfect size for our group and the rooms were comfortable and the kids had endless fun in the pool! The house was clean and spacious! The restaurants and shops were nice and fun and the water park was a blast....Overall our trip was incredible and we appreciate you renting the house to us!

Stayed at Dancing Dolphin with my family and grandkids in April. The house is amazing, had everything we needed. Huge eat in kitchen that is very well stocked. Bama Beach Houses' staff is very available and super about everything from first making the reservation, to super easy check in. We have used various agencies over the past 6 yrs to stay in Gulf Shores and BBH is by far the best in customer service. I am so happy we found them and we will be a repeat tenant. Thanks for a wonderful vacation experience. \[Thanks Katy! See you on the calendar already for next year too! Really appreciate the warm fuzzies! 😉 Thanks again!\] ##### Katy F.

We booked the Dancing Dolphin for our family Christmas. Every year we do a getaway. This was definitely the best place we have stayed so far. The house was spacious and right on the beach. It is definitely well worth the money. Everyone has decided we should get this same place for next year! Everyone was very responsive to any questions we had. Since posting photos of our family Christmas several people have asked how to go about renting this home. Very pleased with everything. Definitely did not want to leave! ##### Christine D. ### 8/10 Good #### Matt B.

Heated pool was fantastic and the management company was very responsive. Clean house and good amenities. The mattresses need to be replaced. Almost every person indicated that their mattress was uncomfortable and very dated. They have used mattress pads to try and mask the problem but they do little to help. Replace the mattresses and this place checks all the boxes. ##### Matt B.

The location is perfect, in a residential area away from all the touristy spots, but still close to restaurants and other activities. With five bedrooms, it is a great option for multiple families. Everyone has their own space. We read with interest the other reviews. It is true that the house shows signs of wear. There are cracked floor tiles, the sliding doors are almost impossible to open, the dryer was broken and it was not very clean. We can imagine that it is hard to maintain a beach house with so much traffic in and out. The management company could do a better job with housekeeping. Our main concerns were the lack of basic amenities that one would expect with a beach rental. There were no beach chairs or umbrellas, no beach toys, no BBQ grill, no bikes, no beach towels. We ended up having to rent everything for an additional cost. Based on how much money we spent for the house, we do think these things could have been provided. The house owners were very responsive; we did not complain about the shortcomings because overall, we had a great time with our family after over a year of lockdown. ##### Josh F.

May 27, 2025 #### Wonderful week at Dancing Dolphin We had an absolutely wonderful week at the Dancing Dolphin! The kids sprawled out and loved the bunk beds while the bigger girls claimed the front ocean view room with the double beds. We usually stay further down in Fort Morgan, but loved the location and convenience your home provided. We still got the secluded beach feel with way more food options and activities nearby. We might be adding more to our Spring Break crew next year but if we don't, we'd absolutely stay in your home again. Thanks for having us!! ##### Heather B.

I was planning on booking for next years spring break, but have since found out that the grandkids have two different spring break weeks next year. We definitely want to return, just trying to figure out how to make it happen. May have to be when they get out of school. Ugh, I love spring down in GS. Thanks so much for the great houses that you have! I tell everyone about Bama Beach Houses. Oh, and no alligators this year but did see this Eagle on the beach our first day. We think he was eating a Seabass. ##### Katy F. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darlene R.

We all had a great time and hopefully imprinted some memories in our little ones. 😁 ##### Darlene R. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Salamanca-Hotels-Seneca-Allegany-Resort-Casino.h2238839.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky OH](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandusky-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Sandusky-OH.h1183594.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Jasper](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Jasper.h1760121.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h41871.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [TownePlace Suites By Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-TownePlace-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h427522.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information)
