Located in the highly sought-after Doral Woods, Dolphin Villa is situated on a large and secluded south-facing lot, spanning nearly 1 acre.

Quiet and Relaxing

Dolphin Villa was exceptional in all areas. It was great to stay close to all of the attractions but just enough away to be very quite and relaxing.

Excellent villa and location.

Just got back from a week at Dolphin Villa and have to say it was superb! The villa is clean, spacious and has all of the amenities you need. There is a comfy lounge area with big TV, excellent kitchen with everything you need and big bedrooms. The pool is larger than most I have seen online and very clean. Didn't get to use the hot tub but it's there if you need it. The location is very quiet in a nice neighbourhood and you are not overlooked like many other villas so can enjoy the pool in private. If I was ever to go back to Florida, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. The host kept in contact as well to make sure everything was ok after we settled in. Top marks, couldn't ask for any more !!

This is NOT a luxury villa. The pictures are misleading and not up to date. I’m even reluctant to rate it a 3 star. It is very “tired” looking. The bedding, pillows are stained (disgusting) towels have stains, the fans were so full of dust the manager had to come and clean them all so we could actually use them. My husband actually had to climb on our bed and clean the one in the master suite so we could use it the first night. Maybe it’s a cleaning staff issue, but the room doors, kitchen/bathroom cupboard where everyone touches were disgusting so much so I had to scrub them because I couldn’t stand touching them everyday. Pool heat was refunded by owner as we could not use it or the hot tub (only able to use 6 days out of 3 weeks). We were aware that the pool heat would shut down due to extreme cold weather but the hot tub should have been useable during our entire stay. It’s 20 years old and although running, didn’t maintain the heat due to thermal cover missing, which the property manager managed to clean up and tape up (still in poor condition) and put on for the last 5 days of our stay. I have lots of pictures of things that in my opinion makes this barely a 3 star. The owner told me this was his personal vacation property, so not sure why this is even on VRBO. Phil the manager tried his best to accommodate and that was appreciated.
The door frame on microwave is cracked
Oven is very dirty. Also dirty used cookie sheets in bottom drawer
Chair in Master Bedroom looked broken and material is all peeling off.
