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.

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.

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.

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.

Stuart Getaway
We stayed for Thanksgiving week my husband and I. Out college age children came for 2 days. The home was great, well remodeled and well appointed. The location was excellent 1.8 miles from downtown and near the bridges we love to walk with the dogs. Near restaurants and shops. We had a wonderful time and will be back. Home could use more lighting in the bedrooms and by the couch I like to read at night.

Alice R., Where do you live?

This house had everything needed and more! Also nicely decorated
We had a wonderful stay at Virginia and David’s home. They provided everything needed and more. We travel a lot and have rented many homes and this one was one of the most well equipped and thought out properties at which we have stayed. We highly recommend the house. It is great for two to four people or for a family with two children. Our two small dogs also really enjoyed their stay. The backyard was fenced and dog proof.

Great family stay
Beautiful little place. We stayed last spring and realized we never did a review. Very comfortable place and loved the open concept. Back porch is very relaxing and we loved having a small fenced in yard to play with the kids. There was an issue with the central air system but the owners swiftly responded. David was so kind! Several hiccups throughout the stay but again, swiftly handled. Would recommend this unit for a small family!

Very Enjoyable Stay
We really enjoyed our stay. The home was beautifully decorated and all the new furnishings were nice quality & very comfortable. The many amenities provided by the owners helped us feel right at home. In addition the owners provided a lot of information about attractions and events in the community as well as some history. The location was a nice quiet neighborhood just a 5 minute drive to beaches and downtown Stuart. The owners were very responsive to our questions. Check in was simple and all instructions for the stay were provided in advance. We would definitely consider staying here again. John & Ruth

Can’t say enough good things
I come to Stuart for family about every other month throughout the year. I have stayed many places but this, by far, is my favorite. The location is perfect for me and the home was extremely comfortable and felt like home. It has everything you need and is way better than a hotel. I hope I can make this a regular spot for my trips. Virginia was in communication with me regularly before my trip and checking in and out of the house was super easy. I literally can’t say enough great things about my experience. Thank you for the best 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......

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.
