It was our first time staying at The Blue Dolphin Beachhouse & having read previous reviews, I was apprehensive about a couple of things. We were a group of 10 & ranged in ages from 15 to 55, but there was plenty of room & beds for all of us. I loved the very spacious 1st floor with the fully loaded kitchen & 2 separate sitting spaces, each with their own tvs, where the kids enjoyed their shows & we enjoyed ours. My husband & I have very bad knees, so I was dreading the stairs, but while there was plenty to climb, they were nonslip with plenty of railing to help us up. The beds was the other uncertainty. I read they were metal & frail, however, while they did crack when we turned, they held us comfortably & steady throughout our stay. The outside area & pool was a nice escape from the hot beach. We didn't have time to enjoy the grill or figure out the heated pool, but we certainly still got in & enjoyed ourselves. Overall, we had a wonderful time in this wonderful place & would not only recommend The Blue Dolphin Beachhouse, we would certainly book it again.

Great Location, Beautiful Home, Furnished on a tight budget.

The location was outstanding. Probably the best on the island. The home needs better beds and bedding.

Except beds nothing else was in good condition. Wobbly furniture, uncleared dishes, slow oven, no working lights in bath etc. Could have maintained better.

Beautiful House

The house is spacious for my family, it’s clean; the beds were big enough for everyone to sleep comfortably. It's in a perfect area where we can walk to the beach, grocery store, restaurants, etc.
