St. Augustine Nights of Lights Celebration Happening now through January 26th 2025! Welcome to your ultimate waterfront retreat at Dolphin Cove! Nestled by the picturesque Matanzas Inlet, this 3-story haven boasts unparalleled views and endless adventures.

Accommodating up to 10 guests, this spacious home offers the perfect blend of comfort and luxury. With river and beach access just steps away (the beach is a mere block from your door), you'll enjoy the best of both worlds. But what truly sets Dolphin Cove apart is its exclusive on-premises fishing and boat dock, complete with complimentary kayaks. No need to choose between a beach day or a fishing excursion – here, you can have it all!

Marvel at the breathtaking vistas from the expansive windows on the second floor, offering uninterrupted views of Matanzas Inlet. Start your day with breakfast on the second or third-floor balconies, where you can soak in the serene atmosphere, catch up on your reading, and witness stunning sunrises and sunsets, often accompanied by playful dolphin sightings.

For those seeking outdoor entertainment, the first-floor patio is an absolute delight. Equipped with a summer kitchen, TV, grill, fire pit, picnic table, and dartboard, it's the perfect setting for memorable gatherings with loved ones. Enjoy the hammock area off the deck AND outdoor shower with hot water!

When it comes to dining options, you'll be spoiled for choice. Head south to experience the tantalizing flavors of 386, JT's Seafood, or on to the culinary delights of the European Village. There's something to satisfy every palate just a short drive away. Head north to St. Augustine to experience the Elk house Eatery, Purple Olive, Viola's Italian eatery or the Paladar Cuban Cafe. If you prefer to stay in, our fully equipped kitchen and outdoor kitchen & balcony offer the perfect setting for a memorable meal with family and friends.

But Dolphin Cove isn't just a place to stay – it's a venue for unforgettable experiences. Whether you're hosting a family reunion, corporate retreat, or romantic getaway, our property is the perfect backdrop for any occasion.
