Beautiful, well kept property. Fabienne and Gerold are amazing hosts that want you to have the best experience possible. The kayaks on the property were a great idea to paddle out to the island. Fishing was great. Seeing dolphins right next to the dock pool was incredible. We would love to come stay again.

Best property and hosts near St Pete's!

We just returned from our stay at Casa Dolphina and it did not disappoint! Our only regret is that we didn’t book a longer stay. Fabienne and Gerold were the most amazing and gracious hosts. The property was absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed the outdoor space. It was truly a private oasis. We will definitely book again.

Love Casa Dolphina

This was our second time staying at Casa Dolphina. We love the hosts and the house. It such a good family home. They have tons of kayaks and a lift to put the kayaks on and lower down and just paddle out. The kids fished off the pier and caught fish. They have a big porch off the back thatwe love. We spent evenings on the porch playingl games. The pool is beautiful and of course we enjoyed it immensely. The house is beautiful and very well maintained. I would recommend this home to anyone! Gerald and Fabienne are wonderful hosts and are there in a moments notice if there are any problems. You will definitely love Casa Diolphina. We also saw manatees by the pier and dolphins.

outstanding location!

we stayed at Casa Dolphina for 12 days and had a wonderful time. The owners were very attentive and helpful, and the house was spacious and clean. The grounds, and the pool, were second to none. Convenient location to many restaurants and beaches and shopping as well. yard games, and kayaks were available, which was a plus! You won’t be disappointed if you stay here!

Florida grad reunion

We have a son who graduated from Eckerd College and our family plus aunts and uncles joined us on the trip. It was difficult to find accommodations that could house all of us. I stumbled across Casa Dolphina and I am sure glad I did.The property was wonderful for the 9 of us. Plenty of space to socialize or chill. I would highly recommend this property. Didn't want to leave and will return.One other thing, the hosts (Fabienne and Gerold) are the best! Every need was met and the few issues we had were addressed immediately. Wish they were our neighbors. Thank you so much for sharing your home.

Another great week!

Another great Spring Break week was spent with our families at Casa Dolphina! Fabienne & Gerold are the best hosts and we couldn’t have asked for a better house for our 2 families to stay at again this week! There was plenty of space for all of us & it had all the amenities we needed. Our kids had the best week swimming, sitting in the hot tub, kayaking to the private island, fishing off the dock, and just hanging out & being kids. We will be back again next year!

We are three senior sisters and their husbands who have found Casa Dolphina to be the perfect place for a yearly get together. This was our fourth visit with our fifth reserved. We keep returning since the amenities check all of our boxes, inside and out. Fabienne and Gerold are the perfect hosts who know how to make it known you are appreciated.

A Dream Vacation

Hard to leave yesterday… our time at Casa Dolphina couldn’t have been more perfect! So much room, a beautiful pool which was hardly ever empty, a fabulous dock for fishing and kayaking, a kitchen and bar for foodies like us who love to cook our own meals… nothing was missing!! We hardly left the property. It was a family trip where we all met from our various homes in the US to spend some time together. With four grandchildren, there was something for everyone! Our 9 year old grandson is now hooked on pool as there is a wonderful billiard table on the property too. And I must acknowledge our hosts…. Fabienne and Gerald were so personable and helpful!! Communication was easy and they were always available to answer any questions and offer ideas for when we did manage to pull ourselves away from the property!! We will definitely return someday!!!
