Dolphin Lookout, Beach Front, on Summer Haven Beach. in Daytona Beach

A gorgeous beach cottage offering its ecstatic guests a front row seat to both sunrise and sunset - any questions? 

Quiet and charming Summer Haven has long been a secret amongst the country’s elite. Since its back-country beginnings in 1885, this sleep seaside town has provided lucky visitors a taste of the other side of Florida. Before loud resorts and frenetic amusement parks, the cream of northern society vacationed here for languid days and lazy nights. 

For barefoot bliss and a salty taste of heaven, choose Dolphin Lookout as your next holiday destination. It’s an iconic American house, conjuring memories of your favorite childhood July Fourth.

Offering six guests the choice of two bedrooms, one sleeper sofa, and two and a half bathrooms, it packs beach cottage charm in a full-sized house. Every room boasts views, so you can peek from under the covers to enjoy a view that’s all yours.

Sitting on a spit of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the Matanzas River, it’s a water lover’s dream. Go for a morning swim and then enjoy an outdoor shower before waking the family with a delicious cooked breakfast. Florida oranges taste even better with these views, or how about bacon eaten atop retro diner stools?

Your ample communal space includes a living room and fully stocked kitchen, both with ocean views. Enjoy your home-cooked meals outside on the large decks and wonder how you’ll ever manage to leave.

This very well-maintained home is particularly special for its windows and pristine floors. Furnishings are bright and delightful.

Your pets are very welcome and they’ll go crazy for all the sights and sounds on offer. Quiet roads and surrounds make this a safe spot both for pets and kids. The beaches remain nearly deserted, even in peak season.

For day trips, you’re spoiled for choice. Fort Matanzas makes a great afternoon out - and is just a 2-minute drive away. St. Augustine is a must-see as well, about a half hour’s drive.

*** Plus one time end of stay cleaning fee is $195, pet fee $100(each), security damage fee is $95, amenity fee is 4.95% & tax is 10%.
