About this house rental

Dolphin Bay CV424 - Expansive Coastal Retreat, Sleeps 16, 2 Living Areas, Huge Outdoor Deck, Close to Beach

WHY GUESTS LOVE THIS PROPERTY
Dolphin Bay is designed for large families and group getaways, offering over 3,000 square feet, multiple living spaces, and flexible sleeping arrangements for up to 16 guests. With two living areas, a full kitchen plus kitchenette, and a spacious outdoor deck built for gathering, this home makes it easy for everyone to be together without ever feeling crowded. Just minutes from the beach, it’s the kind of place where group trips feel effortless.

HIGHLIGHTS
-Sleeps up to 16 guests with 7 sleeping areas
-Over 3,000 sq ft with two separate living areas
-Full kitchen + additional kitchenette for large group meals

WHAT TO EXPECT
Dolphin Bay stands out as a true group-friendly home, with space intentionally designed for both connection and separation. Two full living areas allow your group to spread out comfortably — whether that’s kids in one space and adults in another, or simply having room to relax without feeling on top of each other.

The kitchen setup is especially functional for larger groups. With both a full kitchen and a separate kitchenette, meal prep, snacks, and drinks can all happen at once without crowding — something that makes a noticeable difference during longer stays.

The front deck quickly becomes the centerpiece of the home. It’s a shaded, breezy space where guests naturally gather in the evenings for conversation, games, and downtime after a day at the beach.

Sleeping arrangements are flexible and designed with real groups in mind. Two ensuite queen bedrooms provide private retreats for couples, while additional guest rooms, bunk options, and the unique boat bed with trundle make it easy to accommodate kids and extended family. Every space is set up to make group travel simple and comfortable.

This house was absolutely amazing. We loved it. We had 12 people Total. Everyone had their own bed and there was one extra bed that no one slept in. All of the amenities in the house were great. We never wanted to leave. We will stay here again. Family oriented they even had a little seat for the littles to use the big potty. Bathtub toys and an arcade game. 10/10 this by far is the best experience we’ve ever had.

This rental was so amazing! We had a big group of 16 and everyone slept so comfy. It was spacious but the layout was perfect for entertaining. We loved it. They had a full stocked kitchen with all the pans, pots, appliances, utensils you could think of. It was extremely clean when we got there. We will definitely come back.

All of beautiful things I could say about this property, but it's better if you just stay there to find out for yourself!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
The house was big enough for our group of 7 and the beds were good. The problem was the roaches. Bunk bed(which has no ladder) was a concern because the ceiling fan is too close. Ceiling fan in bathroom was very dirty.
