The house was charming, clean, convenient to everything, and exactlyas listed. The beach decor was cute and small touches like a Brita filter and plenty of outdoor seating made the stay easier. The hosts answered questions quickly and efficiently.
It was so nice to have a home away from home. All the amenities and the location is perfect. We weren't on the beach, but a small drive and we were there! I would definitely stay here again!!
The home is just as advertised - very comfortable in a safe quiet neighborhood with plenty of access to all the sights, eats and beaches. Will definitely return…

Dolphina House is a great property, conveniently located to Pensacola activities and Pensacola Beach. The home is very comfortable, bright and nicely decorated. The owners are very responsive to all needs , accommodating, and provide many amenities, which make for a comfortable stay. We will be back!
I couldn't speak highly enough about this place and location. The neighborhood was very nice, quiet, and always felt very safe. Super convenient to parks, downtown, and the beaches. The home was perfect and the fenced in back yard was heaven for the doggies. Highly recommended, I'll definitely be back. Thanks!

Thanks Ben! We're so glad you enjoyed your time here. We look forward to you visiting again!
This was our second stay at the Dolphina House and we hope to return again on our next trip to Pensacola. Our experience with the owners, property, neighborhood and location has and continues to be exceptional. My wife is in town for a dog agility trial, and the backyard and the doggie blankets provided are great comfort to us and our special friend. The Dolphina never disappoints…

We're so glad you enjoyed your visit. We love hosting you ALL. Thank you so much for leaving the house spotless. Come again soon!
We stayed this summer and we booked it for my parents this month. Milli was a huge help! My parents had never rented a vacation home before and were very nervous. Milli was great about communicating with me and was even willing to meet my parents at the house when they arrived to walk them through things to make them feel mor comfortable! Definitely recommend staying here!
This little house had everything we needed and in a great location. Molly and Doug are very thoughtful and easy to reach! We enjoyed the fenced in back yard for the pups as well!
Be aware that the house is “vintage” and some may complain that it’s dated. We loved the homey feel and the pics accurately describe the listing. Also some may care that there are no tvs in the bedrooms.
Everything worked as expected and we would definitely stay here again! We loved the binder of recommendations and enjoyed trying many of the hot spots to eat! Thanks again!
This house is perfect for a family. The neighborhood is quiet and very well-kept. My husband and I ran each morning and never felt alarmed. The house was just as described. It's not too far of a drive to the beach and it was nice to get away from all of the "touristy" traps (even though we are tourists too). This place just felt like home.
We've lived in the area since 1998. East Hill offers lots of opportunities to see everything Pensacola has to offer. We've found it to be the most convenient location in town. We are avid boaters and always launch from Bayview Park, just blocks from your stay. We hope you enjoy the area as much as we do,. We are close by and available to answer any questions that you have.
Why they chose this property
This home is close to everything! Shopping, restaurants, downtown, boat launches and more. It's a great neighborhood to walk, bike ride, with lots of neighborhood parks. You can play tennis a few blocks away. We offer a great backyard to relax in, and the house is spacious but cozy. There's also a great dog park 4 blocks away.
What makes this property unique
We go out of our way to provide a clean, safe space for guests. The home was built in 1938 and sits amongst other historic homes. We've tried to keep the character of its age, while still offering modern conveniences. We hope you find it comfortable for you and your family.
