Had a wonderful weekend here with my girlfriend and our puppy, staff was amazing. They let us do a late check out at no extra cost! There are so many great restaurant options in walking distance. We will for sure be back.

*******Update scroll down ******** My good friends WHO DO NOT smoke were charged $278 for smoke remediation. 3 staff members say they smelled smoke in the room or thats what management is saying. If you stay at this resort make sure you email someone about the smell of smoke in the room even if it doesn't smell like smoke the moment you check in so they cant charge you. Make a electronic trail so they cant refute it. Their last name is Stevens and stayed 3/19/26. It was their first time to Florida so great job on making it memorable. *************UPDATE********** LOOK AT THE REPLY THE DOLPHIN RESORT WROTE. THEY THINK IT IS FUNNY THEY CHARGED A RETIRED COUPLE WHO NEVER SMOKED A SMOKING FEE. FOR THE RECORD THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY REFUNDED THE MONEY. GOOD LUCK IF YOU STAY THERE, YOU MAY FIND AN EXTRA CHARGE ON YOUR CREDIT CARD. After reading more of Dolphin Resort reviews I see a pattern of bad reviews. Read some of the replies of the reviews like, "dont come back". I screen shot some of the reviews so they cant delete them. I like one of the reviews that claimed the room smelled like Febreze and cigarettes one month before my friends stayed.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 2 nights before heading to a wedding in sanibel! Was the perfect beach vibe with the pool and tiki hut. Amazing live music on Thursdays with all the locals! Room was clean and the king bed was super comfortable. Would come here again for sure.
