About this property

Cosy Home with Heated Pool

*POOL IS HEATED to 85 degrees from Nov.1st-April 31st. If nighttime temperatures fall below 50 degrees the owner reserves the option to turn the heater off.
Situated just one block from the beautiful Indian River, Dolly's House affords you the best New Smyrna Beach/Edgewater has to offer. Enjoy fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and boating on the river, or take a ten minute drive to the beautiful beaches of New Smyrna.
A short 15 mile drive up 95N takes you to Daytona International Speedway, Daytona International Airport and more beautiful beaches. Orlando International Airport is approximately 90 minutes away by car.
When you've had enough of the crowds at the beach you can enjoy a day in your own heated pool. After your swim, relax with a glass of wine around the pool or in the screened-in patio. The yard is fenced in for complete privacy in the pool area and there's a grill so you can enjoy cooking and eating outdoors. The laundry room is off the carport, with another bathroom and a shower to wash the sand and salt off after a day at the beach.
The house is located in an older, established neighborhood. Most of them were built in the late 1940s or early 1950s. They are not fancy but they’re sturdy have survived many hurricanes with no damage.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The house felt cozy, and the outdoor space and pool were lovely. This said, the house needs a good cleaning. The baseboards were dirty and very dusty. The corners around the furniture in the living room and bedrooms were very dusty. Further, the bathroom floors (tile) need a good clean. In the second bath, the tile grout was discolored and yellow around the toilet. Additionally, the kitchen utensils, cookware, and dishes were dirty. I had to wash everything I used (the first time I used an item). And, as a personal preference, I would have appreciated if the outdoor furniture (Adirondack chairs/patio table) would have been cleaned (wiped down to be free of dirt/debris) for our stay.

To say I was upset after reading your review is an understatement. I was going to dispute your criticisms but decided that the best response was to point out that of the 27 reviews I’ve received on Vrbo since 2022 ( that’s as far back as I can go) every one has been a 5 and of those 27 bookings, 6 have been repeat guests, with several coming back for a third time. I’ll let those numbers speak for Dolly’s House.

Had a great time!

We loved our stay at the Dolly house. The Patio and pool area is where we spent then majority of our time while we where at the house. It’s very private and relaxing. We was able to visit Orlando, New Smyrna, and Daytona. Location was perfect and the house was equipped with everything we needed.

Relaxing stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolly’s house! The house was clean, had a great pool, and was well stocked with plenty of towels and other things to help us enjoy our stay. As someone who loves to cook the kitchen had everything you needed! Upon arriving we were surprised by a 6 pack of beer, creamer for the coffee and fresh muffins - such a nice touch! Kathleen was extremely helpful during our stay. We would love to come back again!

What a great place to stay! Very clean and comfortable. The pool was a bonus. Kathleen was a pleasure to deal with, quick to respond to questions. Central location to hit the beach or see Daytona Beach, and an easy drive to Orlando. We'll stay there again when we travel to see family in Edgewater.
