Glad we chose the Dolphin house

Our overall experience was great!! And the house was clean spacious, and the backyard is absolutely inviting for spending time in the pool or just lounging by the pool, whether in the sun or under the covered area cabana. We highly recommend the dolphin house. Thank you Nataly and Vitaly for your hospitality.

Family getaway

We had a wonderful time at this home. The pool and outdoor living space was perfect for our family and where we spent the majority of our time, when we were not at the beach. The inside of the home was very clean and spacious. The home owner was easily accessible and responsive, which I greatly appreciated! We would love to return to this vacation home again in the future. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Owner wanted to charge extra fee!!!

Everything in the property was like in the pictures. The only thing I did not like is when the owner tried to accuse me for incorrectly booking the amount of guests that would re-at the property and send me a bill for almost $400. I had to send her proof that my sister had rented another property and she canceled the payment. I wish she would’ve communicated with me first before trying to charge me. It just made everything very uncomfortable and I was ready to come home. I definitely will not be booking with her again

Beautiful area to be in!

Was a lovely place. But there wasn't any containers to store left over food, not a clean cookie sheet or cake pan. No measuring cups. Maybe in the garage have a drying rack! The decore was very nice. Better communication and maybe not count on the car that we told she would rent. Last minute she told us she rented to someone else. At Christmas in Florida cars were being rented for $2000 and up. So the one she had forvour family was $70.00 a day $490 for the week. So beware. Also never spoke once to her which would have been nice. She said her English wasn't the best. I gave her my phone # 3 times she could have just said Hello! When I mentioned the sheets and towels weren't clean she seemed upset but we were upset because at 10 pm when we were going to bed we had to wash sheets! The good definitely out weighed the things we didn't like but all in all a nice vacation. Maybe after reading this post they will add a few things to the kitchen. Maybe a nice Welcome note to the tenants since she couldnt speak good Engish! In the past we felt so Welcome in the homes we rented.

Bachelorette party

We enjoyed our stay very much. The kitchen and pool were perfect for our girls trip. It was a little tight to sleep 11 grown adults. The host was extra accommodating to make sure we all slept comfortably. Great communication and hospitality.

Great Stay at Dolphin House

My family and I had a wedding and some business to take care of in St. Pete.'s and needed a place stay all on one level. We found the house to be better than we had thought. Very tastefully decorated, very clean and all in great working order. The kids enjoyed the pool and we had the ability to have meals together as a family. The owner was has a great outlined usage notes and communication was fantastic. I would highly recommend this house.
