Great house and pool near the beach!

We had a wonderful vacation at this beautiful home with a well-sized, private pool for relaxing! The house was laid out well for our extended family of 6 couples with each couple having a bedroom. The location was excellent with the beach nearby and many shops and restaurants in walking or a short driving distance.

Great place for a family get-together

This house was great for a group of people to get together and have fun. We loved the pool however we're a little disappointed that the hot tub was not a hot tub. A floor plan would be helpful to get a sense of how the rooms are laid out. The twin bedroom is right off the kitchen with another room beyond it. So, those two people better be friends...it worked for us, but it would be awkward with 2 strangers. The house is so close to the beach, the park and the water taxi. Buy your groceries and stay put! This platform d tub.

Great Team Bonding Location

The directors at my company stayed together for a team bonding/work trip and had a wonderful time. The outdoor space was amazing. The heated pool was so wonderful and we all spent so much time in there. The hot tub and pool are the same temperature and were not heated when we arrived. I recommend turning the heat up on the pool as soon as you arrive if it is cold so that it has time to warm up. This was also a great location and our group had lots of fun at the beach, restaurants, and shops

Nice place for a group, but inaccurate listing

While the house did have 6 bedrooms, to get to one of them, you had to cut through another bedroom without any direct access from a common area or even outside the house. Also, the house has a hot tub listed as a popular amenity and when I contacted Lance about using it, he stated "there isn't a hot tub but there is a sauna at the home if you would like to use it." While we were not looking for a sauna, the listing clearly states hot tub.

Fun girls weekend

We had a wonderful stay at the Dolphin Beach House. Plenty of room for 11. Close walking distance to the beach. Towels, beach chairs and umbrellas all supplied. The outdoor space was really nice. Heated pool and 2 W/Ds were a plus. Will absolutely return when visiting Fort Lauderdale. Highly recommend.

Perfect for casual practical

Great space for lots of kids with central air and a heated pool that was so much fun. May have to get creative with large groups for sleeping, but lots of options. Easy walk to the beach. Sandbar was a great place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner casual and oceans 2000 was a divine meal for a dressy occasion. No issues with critters or wildlife for us, which we appreciated.

Spring break laudy

Great experience at this house. Leo was very welcoming to me and my 14 friends all college students. We had a great time in laudy and enjoyed our times chilling out at the house. House was able to sleep all of us, and we found the grill very useful for cookin out while chilling out at the pool. Made a lot of great memories watching college basketball in the living room in our down time. Overall 10/10 experience. Great house. Sweet pool

Birthday Celebration

I planned a milestone birthday with 8 life long friends to celebrate in Ft. Lauderdale and choose Lance and Danielle property. The location of the house was perfect and big enough to accommodate all of us. The backyard, patio, and pool were beautiful. Mother Nature was not cooperative and we seen a record amount of rainfall during our stay. Lance and Danielle are very kind and caring and very responsive to any questions we may of had during our stay. Thank you for being such gracious and generous host Anthony

Golf trip fun

Ten men stayed here and had a great time. Everything you need is no more than two or three miles away. Ubers typically about $8 to go where you needed to go. No need to rent a car. Five minute walk to the beach. Walk to supermarket is only ten minutes and then you Uber back if you want to save a few bucks. Owners are responsive...good people. Two washers and dryers if you have multiple families staying there. I only needed to tell them about updating or increasing the pans and a few kitchen items... otherwise everything was perfect

Perfect family getaway

This house perfect for our family vacation! We had people of all ages from 65-7 months. Plenty to do from the pool and pool toys to the beach. The beach is a very quick golf cart ride away and also a close walk. The neighborhood seemed safe and quiet. I felt very safe walking every morning. The house was fully equipped right down to coolers and beach chairs. The property manager, Leo was extremely attentive! He gave us his personal cell number and texted us back in minutes with any questions. He even helped us pick out restaurants that would accommodate our family Thanks Leo. You were awesome! I would definitely recommend this house for large families of all ages!

Location cannot be beat!

From the moment my family and I checked into Dolphin Isles we were in awe. First the location of this house is incredible. Very short walk and we were at the beach. We did take advantage of the golf cart add on and were very pleased. We took it up and down A1A and the kids loved it. When not at the beach or on the golf cart, we let the kids swim in the pool while the adults relaxed on the pool deck and utilized the outdoor pool bar. The layout of the house was perfect for our group and the attention to detail by the host (Lance) was spot on. His responsiveness and willingness to answer my many questions did not go overlooked. I will most definitely be booking Dolphin Isles again in the very near future. Thank you Lance for making my family vacation unforgettable!

Excellent backyard and location!

We honestly couldn’t have found a better rental for our extended family to enjoy a week together! We had a blast using the pool and tiki bar, and everyone had their own space. Loved that it was only a 2-block walk to the beach, and there’s a great restaurant nearby right on the beach (highly recommend the Sandbar Grill…friendly staff and great food/drinks. Ocean 2000 is overpriced and not so great food). It’s a long ride to the New River because of traffic, but we were always able to get several Ubers or Lyfts for our large group within a handful of minutes. The property managers were awesome and extremely accommodating. Unlike the negative review about bugs on the property, we didn’t have a problem with any (although this is Florida, so keep the door shut and you should be fine). Although we don’t usually rent the same place twice, everyone in our group would really enjoy coming back another time!
