It was a small space, but well appointed. Two double beds, a Television, lots of extra blankets and towels for the beach/pool. Games, mini kitchen, bathroom with toiletries. It's really close to the pool area and the private beach is across the street. Walkable to two restaurants, both on the water.

My first time was for recreation, and my 2nd stay was work-related. The room was spotless, everything smelled fresh, and the bed just as comfortable as I remember. I love the little stove, perfect to make your own food. Additionally, the walking distance proximity to the amenities and local food and drinks spots. I'll definitely be returning, and would highly recommend to anyone (and already have!).

Our stay at Dolphin and Manatee Cove was exactly what I needed! This condo offers breathtaking waterfront views, and we loved stepping right outside to watch dolphins and manatees in their natural habitat. The space was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and fully stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet close to great dining and activities. Highly recommend for a tranquil and unforgettable waterfront retreat. Definitely be back again!
