Our 4th time staying here. As always, it was perfect.

This lovely cottage was in the community of Carillon Beach. It was clean, well located and very comfortable for 2 couples. You can park 2 cars in the driveway and easily walk around the community. Public access to the beach is close by. Mark was easy to communicate with via text. We would stay here again.

Thank you, Mark, for sharing Dolphin Smiles with our family. This was the perfect property in Carillon Beach for my husband and I and two teenage children. There was plenty of space, it was well equipped with thoughtful touches, and the perfect location in the quieter end of the neighborhood within a short walk to the heated pool or beach. The beach chairs and umbrella were a much appreciated amenity. The photos do not do this beautiful home justice and we felt that the property was a remarkable value. The owner is very communicative and accommodating. We look forward to another visit!!

This is a beautiful home with close access to the beach and pool. The lighthouse tower was terrific and the place was immaculate. Mark the owner was very responsive to the issues we had, which are listed below: 1. The beach service was atrocious. Not once during the entire week were our two chairs and umbrella set up when we arrived at the beach. We contacted Mark, who directed us to the beach service company, who said they’d follow up with the workers. It was incredibly frustrating. Bring your own equipment to avoid the hassle. 2. The microwave wasn’t functioning when we arrived. Mark had already ordered one that arrived on Tuesday. I was fine to install it myself, though it would’ve been hard for someone like my petite wife to do it on her own if I wasn’t with her. 3. The freezer never functioned. A repairman came out on Wednesday to clean the coils that still didn’t fix the problem. That meant no popsicles or ice cream for my four and two year old kids. We also had to buy bags of ice the entire week. 4. The master bathroom toilet sounds like an airplane toilet when flushed. 5. Bring a table fan for the kitchen. It gets extremely hot in the afternoon or when you’re cooking. There’s very little airflow. 6. The smallest bedroom needs blackout blinds. It gets very bright and very warm.
