Confortable home in quiet neighborhood

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolphin House. The home had all the furnishings for comfort, cooking, and doing laundry. The owners were very responsive and helpful in attending to our needs and requests-even going above and beyond expectations.

Great Neighborhood Location

We were impressed with the cleanliness and the art and decor was lovely. The air-conditioning was quiet and comfortable. It’s 5 blocks to the Library, which is a good walk, in lovely single-home neighborhood. Lovely space for our month-long stay, with everything needed in the kitchen for meals. Great stay!

Wonderful Place

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is clean, the beds are comfortable, and the neighborhood is quiet and safe. We enjoyed using the variety of dishes to cook with, and hang out as a family. It is a short drive to multiple beaches, a beautiful downtown boardwalk, and nice local shops.

The Dolphin House was absolutely perfect for our stay in Stuart. It’s a great location for hitting downtown or the beaches. The house was very clean and had everything for our month long visit. My wife and I had no issues whatsoever and we hope to book in the future. The desk in spare room work out great for remote work.

Perfect Stay

The property was perfect (as described) our ONLY complaint is the stations on the TV. There is NOTHING to watch. I would suggest letting the tenants download their own apps (tubi, amazon, netflix) so we can watch what we want with our own login. (Smart TV system) thank you......

Wonderful Stay

We enjoyed our stay at the Dolphin House. We were in town to visit family so did not get to spend too much time at the house but we found it to be clean and nicely decorated. It was very well equipped and we had everything we needed. Dog liked the fenced yard. Nice quiet neighborhood. Master (king) bed was very comfortable.

Refuge from a storm

My husband and I are full time RVers. We rented this house for safety and for sleep. This house is a concrete block and steel building and had been standing for approx 50 years. We knew we works be safe from high winds. But the surprise I received when I walked in! Such a well done make over. Open concept with updated appliances and features. Very comfortable! And we felt safe!! Thank you for giving us shelter!

Fantastic stay!

This is a fantastic rental and the location is very convenient to all local amenities. The house is beautiful and was very clean. The host was fantastic with communication as well. I even left a make up bag behind on accident and she messaged me right away to let me know, and helped arrange for it to get sent back to me. I would absolutely stay here and recommend it to others.

Enjoyable stat.

The stay was enjoyable and convenient to the people we came to see. Would consider it again if our son came along with us. Otherwise I think it would be a bit big for just two people. But over all no complaints that would make me not recommend it to anyone. The owner did a nice job on the property.

Holiday Getaway

The Dolphin house is conveniently located in the Krueger Estates neighborhood off of East Ocean Blvd. The home is very inviting, the neighborhood is friendly, and secure. The Dolphin house is close to downtown Stuart and within minutes to the Stuart beaches. We have dogs, so the fenced in side yard was very helpful for us. We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to return again.
