April Wedding

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the house was great and beautiful when we arrived everything was tidy and looked very clean. We had our wedding reception in the backyard and decorated and it turned out absolutely beautiful with a palm trees in the backyard and the tiki bar. Weather was overall pretty good a little chilly in the morning and at night so I would recommend heating the pool in an early April to have a comfortable swim. We were told that we will receive an initial supply of supplies such as toilet paper, laundry soap, and dish soap etc. And we did not receive any of the laundry soap or dryer sheets. I did contact them and they were very quick to respond and said we could come to the office and pick some up but we already had went to the store to get some. I would recommend for them to give more kitchen towels. We were given three for all week and had to keep washing them. The house did seem very clean, but we did notice some gnats around the house during our stay. But again overall, we loved our stay and everyone had a great time, it is really close to lots of restaurants and has a beautiful view of the ocean from the front porch.
Response from VrboOwner on 16 Apr, 2026

Very Nice House

I rented this for my mother’s 60th birthday so all of her 13 kids, their spouses and her grandkids could all be under the same roof and it housed all 33 of us! The beach really is right there and they have the facilities (like two fridges, two dishes, a custom large table) to house a large group!

Dolphin House Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Booked Dolphin House over Labor Day weekend for family reunion. Everyone voted to return next year they loved it so much. Big attraction was the ability to see the ocean and easy beach access. The only problem was a stove that only offered three working burners and unreliable heat on the working three. Were such a large group it’s impossible to eat out so we were very dependent on the kitchen. Easy fix though (hopefully) and it didn’t keep us from returning next year.
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Sept, 2025
Thank you for your review. We are so glad Dolphin House was the perfect spot for your family reunion and that everyone is already planning to return. We are very sorry about the stove and want you to know we would have been more than happy to send someone out right away to fix it during your stay. We never want our guests to deal with issues like that, which is why our team is always available to help and make sure everything is just right. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back next year. Paradise Beach Homes

This was the perfect property for our family get together. We loved the huge table where we could all eat together (20 people)! The foosball games were a girl with the kids!
