About this property

Dolphin Run | Heated Pool, 3-Min Walk to Beach!

  • Relax & Reunite with your favorite people at Dolphin Run — our fully renovated Mid-Island beach home built for families and friend groups. Private backyard oasis with heated & screened pool sits out back; 3-Min walk to Gulf sugar-sand beaches. Beach& pool gear, baby gear, pet-friendly, and a fully stocked kitchen are ready for your next group getaway. 3 BR, 2.5 BA with real beds for 6, plus a queen sleeper sofa. Gather your people, bring swimsuits & groceries - we`ve got the rest!

    Welcome to Dolphin Run
    This is a beach house for the trips you`ll remember. Fully renovated, comfortably designed, and tuned for the kind of vacation where everyone - kids, grandparents, your best friends, and even the dogs - actually get what they came for...sunshine, beach days, and good times! Hang out by our private heated pool out back, walk to the Gulf just 5-minutes down the street, sleep in real beds, and a kitchen & front porch that pull everyone together at the end of the day.

    What guests love most:
    • A private, heated, screened pool to swim year-round, swim safely with the kids, swim without sharing it with anyone but your people.
    •3 minutes to the beach — Dakota & Sterling Avenue Beach Access points are just a short walk away. Leave the car parked all week.
    • Real beds for everyone — no air mattresses, no fighting over the comfy bed. Eight people, three bedrooms, one sleeper sofa, all genuinely comfortable.
    • Beach gear, baby gear, and a stocked kitchen — chairs, umbrellas, cooler, beach toys, pack-n-plays, high chair, and everything you need to cook for a crowd. Show up empty-handed.
    • Pet-friendly — the dog is welcome too.
    • Professionally managed by Coast & Range Vacations — a local Florida team, responsive and on call, here before, during and after your stay.

    Where you`ll be
    Mid-Island Fort Myers Beach — close enough to walk to Times Square for dinner and live music, far enough that the pool deck is quiet at sunset. Publix, Lover`s Key State Park, Bowditch Point, and Snook Bight Marina are short drives. RSW airport is under an hour.

This is the second time we have stayed at Jeff's property. It is always a very joyous occasion for our family as we spend the holidays and an entire month on the beach! Jeff has everything you need including chairs, a wagon toys for the beach and pool towels for the heated pool. The house is perfect. The outdoor screened in porch is one of our favorite areas where we spend many evenings watching the sunset and enjoying a glass of wine. Morning, coffee is also very enjoyable on the porch. The neighborhood is very clean and peaceful. We enjoy many walks around the neighborhood. The beach is a short distance from the house which we always pack up the wagon with our stuff and spend the day at. Publix is half a mile from the house and is an easy walk if you are just picking up a few things. Our favorite places to eat are fresh catch by Publix and flippers in lovers key. We cannot wait to return next year!

We had an amazing vacation. I loved that you are provided ALL the beach accessories you will need and a beach buggy. This home is beautiful with all the amenities you need even soap, shampoo and conditioner. Jeffery was super connected with quick responses. The pool was so nice to have to cool off since the ocean was really warm lol. I can’t say enough about our experience. This home is a must stay!!! Beach access super easy to walk too. Thank you for sharing your home with my family. 5 stars all the way!

Very nice house and only a 5-minute walk to the beach. Screened in front porch was very nice and relaxing. The house came with everything you needed for the beach; however, we had our own chairs so didn't need to use them. Pool was a nice addition but only used it once or twice as we spent our time on the beach. Will stay at this house again when we come back to Ft Myers Beach.

Amazing stay for family of 5!

This house was absolutely fantastic. It offered all the amenities we were hoping for — from a beautiful pool area to very clean and well-stocked everything, just bring your suit case! The location couldn’t be better; it’s just a short walk to the beach, which made it easy to catch both sunrise and sunset every day, and easy for our 3 kids to walk. The rooms were spacious, modern, and spotlessly clean - LOVED the primary bathroom! We also appreciated the little touches — “party lights” and Bluetooth speaker by the pool, plenty of comfortable seating in the screened in porch, all the things you’d need for the beach, and incredibly comfortable bedding. Jeff was very helpful and very responsive for any questions we had. Our family has stayed in many places, but this one truly stood out. We would absolutely stay here again without hesitation!

Best Beach Christmas Vacation

My family had an amazing time at Jeff's property. Jeff was very responsive to any questions that we had during our stay. The house was in a great location. It was walking distance to a couple of restaurants and the grocery store. The beach is a short one and a half block walk. Sometimes we use the wagon that Jeff provided and other times we just carried our chairs. The beach is absolutely gorgeous easy to walk on and not crowded over Christmas time. The house was in pristine condition. Upon our arrival. There were plenty of blankets and bedding for our family. Jeff has some games, but now there are many puzzles waiting for anyone to tackle them. We left several there because we plan on returning again next year to visit. The pool was in beautiful condition and was warm on the cold days that we experienced, which were few. This was one of our favorite Christmas vacation trips that we have taken, which is shown by our willingness to return to the property next year. The convenience of Fort Myers airport and Punta Gorda airport allowed our adult children to come visit us while we stayed for a month. I would highly recommend the property to anyone who is looking for a relaxing fun and comfortable vacation.
