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.

Wonderful
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!

Home away from home!
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!

Reliably comforting and safe.
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…

Wonderful home, yard, and neighborhood!
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!

Perfect for a family
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.
