This was the best stay I have had, ever. The house was perfect. The solitude and decor was just amazing. It was so relaxing for all of us who stayed at Casa Dolphina. We even got to see some dolphins out past the private dock. I will stay here again as soon as I can. I had always imagined what I thought a vacation should be in my mind, but this lived up to my imagination. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend anyone to stay at Casa Dolphina. You will not regret it one bit. Thank you to the owners so VERY much. Allowing us to make the most beautiful memories that will stay with us the rest of our lives. We will come back again.

A well appointed house with wonderful owners. Myself along with some friends and family didnt want to leave. The property itself is breathaking, with wonderful water views, a much needed pool and neat little outcoves sprinkled around the yard. A nice patio table in the shade by the water, a tiki hut with a dining table, a grilling station and a dock with some primo fishing. The interior was spotless, the rooms were large and plentiful enough to fit 10 of us. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was stocked and the sunroom was a great place to relax and umwind. Fabienne and Gerald were responsive and incredibly welcoming hosts, I'd recommend it to anyone and cant wait to be able to go back.

Great hosts and house

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!

Best property and hosts near St Pete's!

Beautiful, well kept property. Fabienne and Gerold are amazing hosts that want you to have the best experience possible. The kayaks on the property were a great idea to paddle out to the island. Fishing was great. Seeing dolphins right next to the dock pool was incredible. We would love to come stay again.

Fantastic property

We just returned from our stay at Casa Dolphina and it did not disappoint! Our only regret is that we didn’t 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.

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 won’t 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.

Love Casa Dolphina

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.

Another great week!

Another great Spring Break week was spent with our families at Casa Dolphina! Fabienne & Gerold are the best hosts and we couldn’t 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!

Florida grad reunion

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.

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!
