This truly is paradise, what a great house for a family vacation. The hosts Fabienne and Gerold were wonderful!The kayak lift and dolphin escorted trip to Jack's Island in search of treasure was one of the great experiences we had that week.
Check-in couldn't have been easier. We received entry instructions early on the day of arrival, complete with video!The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed.
We had a family group of ten staying at the house and we absolutely loved it! The home owners were so accommodating and nice. The house was beautiful and the outdoor space was amazing!!! There was plenty to do at the house and the views are breathtaking. We cannot wait to go back.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. We would excitingly go back!! We caught multiple sharks from the dock, loved the pool, used the outdoor dining almost every night, and found the owners to be kind and wonderful.
We had an amazing stay! The owners are great communicators and very attentive. The house was perfect for 12 of us to feel comfortable. We loved spending most of our time enjoying the pool, decks, and sunroom area. Kayaking over to the beach was easy and a treat!
This was our second time staying at Casa Dolphina. We love the hosts and the house. It such a good family home. They have tons of kayaks and a lift to put the kayaks on and lower down and just paddle out. The kids fished off the pier and caught fish. They have a big porch off the back thatwe love. We spent evenings on the porch playingl games. The pool is beautiful and of course we enjoyed it immensely. The house is beautiful and very well maintained. I would recommend this home to anyone! Gerald and Fabienne are wonderful hosts and are there in a moments notice if there are any problems. You will definitely love Casa Diolphina. We also saw manatees by the pier and dolphins.
We just returned from our stay at Casa Dolphina and it did not disappoint! Our only regret is that we didnât book a longer stay. Fabienne and Gerold were the most amazing and gracious hosts. The property was absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed the outdoor space. It was truly a private oasis. We will definitely book again.
The property was amazing, perfect for our group of 3 families with 11 people-plenty of outdoor and indoor space for relaxing between exploring nearby attractions and down time. The hosts were very responsive and made our stay extra memorable.
we stayed at Casa Dolphina for 12 days and had a wonderful time. The owners were very attentive and helpful, and the house was spacious and clean. The grounds, and the pool, were second to none. Convenient location to many restaurants and beaches and shopping as well. yard games, and kayaks were available, which was a plus! You wonât be disappointed if you stay here!
We had such a wonderful time. Fabienne and her husband were so thoughtful and welcoming. They brought us cupcakes, wine and chocolate which was so delicious and unexpected. They attended to all our needs and the kayaking and fishing was amazing. We definitely would recommend this place and stay here again in the near future.
Hard to leave yesterday⊠our time at Casa Dolphina couldnât have been more perfect! So much room, a beautiful pool which was hardly ever empty, a fabulous dock for fishing and kayaking, a kitchen and bar for foodies like us who love to cook our own meals⊠nothing was missing!! We hardly left the property. It was a family trip where we all met from our various homes in the US to spend some time together. With four grandchildren, there was something for everyone! Our 9 year old grandson is now hooked on pool as there is a wonderful billiard table on the property too. And I must acknowledge our hostsâŠ. Fabienne and Gerald were so personable and helpful!! Communication was easy and they were always available to answer any questions and offer ideas for when we did manage to pull ourselves away from the property!! We will definitely return someday!!!
We have a son who graduated from Eckerd College and our family plus aunts and uncles joined us on the trip. It was difficult to find accommodations that could house all of us. I stumbled across Casa Dolphina and I am sure glad I did.The property was wonderful for the 9 of us. Plenty of space to socialize or chill. I would highly recommend this property. Didn't want to leave and will return.One other thing, the hosts (Fabienne and Gerold) are the best! Every need was met and the few issues we had were addressed immediately. Wish they were our neighbors. Thank you so much for sharing your home.
We have stayed at Casa Dolphina many times. It is in a good location. The view of the water and skyline from the pool area is amazing, we see dolphins near the seawall on a daily basis, and the gracious and attentive hosts are the best.Greg
We were a group of 5 friends who spent a week at Casa Dolphina and really enjoyed ourselves. The property is awesome, great views and sunsets, you never want to leave. Check in and check out were very easy and the owners were awesome to deal with. Thank you Fabienne and Gerold.
Another great Spring Break week was spent with our families at Casa Dolphina! Fabienne & Gerold are the best hosts and we couldnât have asked for a better house for our 2 families to stay at again this week! There was plenty of space for all of us & it had all the amenities we needed. Our kids had the best week swimming, sitting in the hot tub, kayaking to the private island, fishing off the dock, and just hanging out & being kids. We will be back again next year!
Casa Dolphina was the perfect vacation spot for our family! We had 8 adults and 2 kids in our group. The house was clean, well kept, and the perfect size for everyone to be together but also have their own space. Some of the group fished from the dock while others relaxed in the pool and hot tub, even played some pool, and kayaked in our downtime. The sunroom was the most popular spot; rain or shine you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the view of the water. The owners were fabulous, and their attention to detail didnât go unnoticed. Fabienne and Gerold were incredibly kind and came bearing gifts, welcoming us with open arms and made us feel comfortable in their home. They helped suggest things to do close by, even suggested some beautiful beaches to check out and dinner spots. They stayed in touch for anything we could have ever needed. Prior to our trip, they quickly responded to all of our questions. The location couldnt be better! You have everything you need, whether it be stores, golf, food, or even several beaches in just a short drive, but honestly thereâs so much to enjoy at the house you may not even want to leave. 10/10 experience and 5 stars all around. Thank you for everything and sharing your beautiful home with us! We had the best time and will most definitely be back!!
We are three senior sisters and their husbands who have found Casa Dolphina to be the perfect place for a yearly get together. This was our fourth visit with our fifth reserved. We keep returning since the amenities check all of our boxes, inside and out. Fabienne and Gerold are the perfect hosts who know how to make it known you are appreciated.
This was our second stay at Casa Dolphina and it did not disappoint. Very comfortable property. Well appointed and had everything 9 adults could ask for. We loved spending time on the lanai and in the dining room. Beautiful sunsets. The home is close to shopping and events. The owners are very welcoming and thoughtful individuals. Can't say enough about the home.
An outstanding property with amazing views. Fabienne was a great point of contact and was able to answer all our questions promptly. Perfect get away!! Thank you so much for helping us create Christmas memories with our family. The Christmas tree was the perfect touch
First of all our hosts were awesome, secondly we experienced a private outside oasis that was great for the littlest (2 months to the oldest 86 yr old in our family. We are a four generation family that loves being together and we had ample bedrooms, baths, a well supplied kitchen and three large tables we could eat and share time together.Our son-in law found his way to the dock every chance he had to catch fish, mostly small but still loved it. We had dophin shows frequently.
My family recently spent a week at Casa Dolphina and my 11 yr old nephew summed it up best⊠âthat was the best vacation Iâve ever had!!â he told me. Now, he hasnât been on that many vacations yet in his young little life, but I certainly have and I can honestly tell you, heâs not wrong. As the planner extraordinaire of our family vacations, I can confidently say that my entire family echoes his sentiment. If youâre looking for an absolutely stunning, well maintained, clean, spacious, beautiful property full of charm and character then look no further because youâve found it! The location & views-breathtaking! The neighborhood-peaceful, beautiful and friendly. The amenities-youâll have absolutely everything you could ever want or need! Iâll also add that my parents with limited mobility really appreciated how accessible everything was for them. This home is a true gem and it exceeded every expectation and then some. We will forever cherish the memories we made here- sharing family stories in the sunroom over coffee, daily dolphin sightings, kayaking in the bay and exploring the nearby island. We truly had the time of our lives. My family cannot stop raving to me about how much they loved this home!! And if thatâs not enough, the hosts Fabienne and Gerold are just absolutely delightful and kind human beings. I canât say enough about how amazing & wonderful they are! Fabienne even planted a plumeria tree from my late great uncleâs home so now we have family at Casa Dolphina!
Our stay at this waterfront paradise was nothing short of magical! This was not our first time renting this property, and we will be back again! The property exceeded expectations with its breathtaking views and thoughtful amenities. Waking up and enjoying coffee on the deck overlooking the water was pure bliss.
I canât recommend this place enough for anyone looking to relax, recharge, and enjoy natureâs beauty. We are already planning my next family stay!
