Solid House But Not Worth It
House was great with a fun location ( views of creek and only 3 blocks from beach walks). Too bad elevator, hot tub were not running ( booked this house specific for these two as I am arthritic and stairs are tough for me).

Great house, amazing location/views
We loved our stay in Isle of Palms; the house was incredible, and it was located in a great area for exploring both the Isle and Sullivan's Island. The view from the roof deck is a 10/10. The property managers made it incredibly easy to check in and were very responsive when the hot tub wasn't working properly and sent someone over quickly to fix it. Would rent again!

Lovely home & excellent location
We had a great time at Dolphin View & really enjoyed the house & pool. Location is great & an easy walk to the beach.
I just wish there was a larger dining table inside & outside. We were just a family of 7 & struggled to have a sit down meal altogether.
The upstairs private roof was very enjoyable of an evening, the sea breeze was delightful.
We are always thankful for allowing our furry family member to join us. Thank for having us!

Amazing Stay
Loved this property. Home was clean and had anything we needed. The pool and hot tub were great with lots of toys to enjoy while swimming. The bar area was equipped with fans so we could stay cool while not in the water. Location was a short walk to the beach so we were able to enjoy morning walks, afternoon sun and evening strolls. The sunset from the upper deck was nothing short of spectacular. My only feedback was that with a house so large, more seating in the family room would be nice. We thoroughly loved our stay and look forward to returning. Thank you!

Beautiful, spacious home in a good location!
The house is beautiful and well laid out. There was an issue with the elevator and they had someone there quickly to fix it as soon as we contacted them. My only issue was that we were told someone would be there on Tuesday or Wednesday to clean the pool and no one came. I texted early Thursday morning as the pool was cloudy from all the rain and having 12 people in the pool for 5 days without the chemicals being checked. I had no response to my text by afternoon so I called and then they sent someone out quickly. My in-laws overheard the pool guys shocked at how bad the pool was and wanted to know what we did so that doesn’t happen again. My family has owned a pool for over 35 years and you cannot go 5 days of rain and people swimming without checking the chemicals and expect the pool to be clear. The pool guys also told my in-laws that they would be back later that day to check the chemicals again and we never saw them return. That was the only “issue” we had with our stay, which didn’t ruin our time that we spent with family. We would return to the home in the future as it held our family of 12 perfectly!

Great house with great lowcountry views in the evenings.
Dolphin View was as advertised. A very clean house with a stocked kitchen. The pool was great and the right size for 10-12 people/kids. The beach was a manageable walk in either direction. The adults had a great time sitting on the rooftop porch watching the sunsets. The only critique was that the wifi was very slow and undependable, which made it hard for some of us to check in on work issues or for kids to use their devices - thank goodness for mobile hotspots.

Unexpected fees
Stayed for 3 nights, additional $400 linen fee, booking fee and $250 for each dog (2) not prorated. All in all over $1000 for extras and early 9am checkout during off season was disappointing. Recommend reviewing total cost on contract before booking.
Also, checkin in requires getting to office before closing to sign papers and get code which required extra efforts, would have preferred electronic checkin due to late flight.
House is also on busy street with event hall across the street with loud music one night.
House itself was immaculate and nicely stocked with well manicured yard.

Didn’t live up to the experience we had hoped for.
Layout and size of house works well for 12 guests. Somewhat dated, but comfortable. Pool/jacuzzi was not operational and never repaired despite us constantly reminding management. After filing a complaint after checkout and requesting somewhat of a refund (you would think they would have offered it without request, considering we’d made it clear it was high on our list of reasons for selecting this particular home), we received a very subpar credit of 3%.

Great family Christmas!
We rented this house to spend Christmas with my parents and my sister and her family. 10 people total. The bedroom configuration was perfect and we especially loved that each bedroom has an en suite bathroom. The common space was large enough for us all and the kitchen was well equipped. The teenagers used the hot tub and ping pong table every day. On the second to last day the heat went out on the main floor. The management company was very responsive and it was fixed within a few hours. I highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!

Fun and relaxing
The property is centrally located. 20 minutes from downtown Charleston, 5-10 to major grocery stores, near great restaurants, etc. We rented a house with a pool in case the beaches were crowded, which was not the case. However, it was still lovely to have the pool. We used it every day.
The house is big, beautiful and comfortable.
My only complaint is that the kitchen area had not been fully cleaned: the counters were sticky and the freezer was dirty. Because we are in the middle of this pandemic, it made me doubt the cleanliness of the entire property, so I got my bottle of bleach and wiped every surface of the house.

Roof top views!
Pros:
We loved the roof top views of this house.
Living space was very comfortable. And beach access was easy.
Cons:
Some things were not quit up to our standards. One being cleanliness. Kitchen cabinets were dirty. Sheets on one bed were ripped, another had hair interwoven into fabric. The door to the basement was almost inoperable because it stuck so badly - you had to slam your body into it to get it to move, same for the elevator doors.
