Back again this year in this wonderful property. As usual, everything was perfect. This very special property offers everything we need, the house is very spacious and very well equipped, whether in the kitchen, in the backyard or just in terms of the beach equipment. And in terms of communication with the owner, he is very efficient and responds to all our requests in a few minutes.I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to have a great vacation!

Amazing house / Villa in Dolphin Isles
August 09, 2023
We were in this house / Villa for 10 days - 9 Nights. The house is beautiful even nicer than on the pictures and very well equipped. It is a very, very clean and exceptionally well maintained. We have been in others vacation homes in this area in the past, this one is the most beautiful. The pool area is a paradise for itself with the trees all around, the pool, hot tub, table and canopy in between. Beautiful!! The front lawn & garden are beautifully manicured and give a very comfortable and private feel to the whole property. In general, it is very quiet and private place it feels like you are the only one here. The owner was very helpful and very accommodating to all our needs. If we would be able, we would stay longer! A great choice for a blissful vacation!

Hi Zev. It was my pleasure hosting you for your stay in Fort Lauderdale! This home is my pride and joy, and I am fortunate to have a wonderful team, including Style Vacation Homes, our cleaner, Ana, and property manager, Kiril, all of whom work diligently to create a seamless vacation experience for my guests. You were lovely and thoughtful guests, and I look forward to your next visit! Best, David

Amazing Property and Owner!
July 05, 2023
My family and I have stayed here once before our most recent stay, and I can’t say enough about the quality of the property, the location, and David the owner. Everything is always spotlessly clean and the decor is beautiful and comfortable. The pool and hot tub make our stay even more amazing. The property location can’t be beat…it’s close to everything you’d want to get to in the area. David is always highly responsive and made sure everything was perfect for us. Thank you David for a tremendous stay once again! We look forward to coming back!
Patrick C.

Hi Patrick. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family! We enjoy the property ourselves when we have the opportunity. We owe a lot to our wonderful team who keep it in the best possible condition at all times. We don't consider this home as a typical rental. That is not our motivation. For us it is rather a serene, tropical oasis that we enjoy sharing with lovely families like yours. I'm so glad to hear how much you enjoyed your stay! I hope to see you again soon, at this or one of my other Style Vacation Homes properties. Best, David

Hi Meg. Thanks so much for sharing your experience at Dolphin Palms!. Style Vacation Homes does a wonderful job of managing the property.

Amazing house and location
June 01, 2023
We loved the house. Great layout, living area was spacious and welcoming. The outdoor space is excellent and well configured. This was also the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. It was spotless. You can't beat this location. Walking distance to the beach with restaurants also located on the beach. The beach area wasn't too crowded either in this location. Neighborhood was quiet, even on Memorial Day. This is a great place to stay.
Gregory W.

Hi Greg. I am so happy to hear about your experience at Dolphin Palms! We are blessed with a team who take pride in what they do. Our cleaner, Ana, presents the home in perfect condition each time. We also love the neighborhood. The ocean is only a 5 minute walk from the house, and the wonderful oceanfront restaurants are so convenient for our guests. Thanks for letting other travelers know some of the things you liked about the home. You were very thoughtful guests, and we would love the opportunity to host you again sometime! Style Vacation Homes manages this home and several other properties for me. Have a nice summer! Best, David

Home away from home
April 06, 2023
From the moment we walked in we felt so comfortable and at home. The house was very clean, organized and well stocked with all the essentials. We have stayed in a lot of rentals and this was by far the best. The location is amazing, it’s just two blocks to the beach. The garage has all the necessary beach equipment that you need, even all the sand toys for the kids. (Our little one was very excited to see all the beach toys!) It was a great stay, we can’t wait to go back!!!
Lauren P.

Hi Lauren. Thank you so much for the wonderful review of Dolphin Palms! My partner and I have traveled quite a bit, and we have always longed for the perfect combination of a 5-star hotel experience in a private, home-away-from-home setting. Unfortunately, most vacation rental homes fall short on the details. When we discovered this tropical gem, we knew we could fix that. I'm so glad you enjoyed the home as much as we do! Style Vacation Homes does a beautiful job of managing this home, as they do for my homes in Provincetown, MA and Long Beach Island, (Harvey Cedars) NJ. I hope I will have the opportunity of hosting you again in one of my Style Vacation Homes properties. Best, David

Amazing vacation--love, love this house/location
April 06, 2023
Four couples took a long weekend and stayed at this beautiful home. The pictures resemble the house. The inside was perfect. The outside had the pool, hot tub and areas to sit. There were so many things in the house that were provided where we have stayed in other VRBO houses that were not. Totally appreciate trash bags, dish detergent, dishwasher soap and washer soap. Many kitchen items as well--spices, coffee, filters and sweetener. The 3 wheel barrels, coolers, chairs for the beach and umbrellas were awesome too. Literally a 3 minute walk to the beach. The house had so much. We ALL really enjoyed our stay and would return in a heart beat--hope to at some point. If you book this house, you will not be disappointed. Management staff super easy to work with too. Karen L
Karen L.

Hello Karen. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about Dolphin Palms! We try to provide everything from rain umbrellas to beach toys - everything one might need for a relaxing vacation. Our guests appreciate the refreshing body wash and shampoo in all the showers, including the outdoor showers. One guest even thanked us for providing post-its! We enjoy the property ourselves, and every time we find ourselves reaching for something, we make sure to provide it for our guests. I'm so glad to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. You were very thoughtful guests, and I want to thank you for taking such good care of the home! I hope you will visit Dolphin Palms again in the near future! Best, David

Beautiful Home Away From Home
January 02, 2023
Our family stayed over the Christmas holiday. The owner put up a beautiful Christmas tree for us. We have stayed at many vacation homes around the world and this home was by far one of the most comfortable and organized homes we have stayed. The owners really thought of every detail to ensure guests have all the comforts of home. The kitchen had high end appliances and fully stocked with very nice dishes & glassware. We spent much time cooking so we truly appreciated all the cookware and serving dishes. Wine/beverage refrigerator plus an additional refrigerator in the garage was helpful. There were plenty of linens, paper goods, and cleaning supplies provided. The home decor was just beautiful with tasteful artwork. Home was very spacious and extremely clean. The surrounding landscaping was pristine. The pool & hot tub was serene and private. We highly recommend renting this home! The owner and management company were excellent communicators. We will definitely stay again!

Superb Ownership & Hospitality
September 09, 2021
The property is just like the pictures… very clean, convenient location, has everything you need. We had a slight mishap with the hot tub… no one’s fault just some wiring issues that kind of stuff happens… can’t say enough good things about Louis Shaw of Style Vacation Homes.. and the owner of the property it self, David… both were first class & fixed the problem efficiently & ASAP. Property was very well maintained and well kept. The mosquitoes can be a nuisance in the evening but no big deal… the owner has property routinely sprayed for pest and several fans and bug spray for your convenience… Superb ownership & hospitality. I would strongly recommend this property as well as any other David & Style Vacation Homes may have.
Louis H.

Hi Lou, Thanks for your comments about Dolphin Palms. I am very happy to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. Yes, tropical vacation properties require careful maintenance to remain in the best possible condition. As homeowner, I am very committed to providing the highest level of quality in everything from cleanliness to landscape and amenities. Style Vacation Homes also handles my property in Provincetown, MA (named "36 West"), and my home in Long Beach Island, NJ ("named Serenity"). These properties are maintained to the same high level of quality as Dolphin Palms, but they provide a very different type of vacation experience. My guests love those properties as well. I encourage you to take a look at those homes on Style Vacation Homes if you should ever consider Long Beach Island or Cape Cod for your vacation. Best, David

DO IT!

The house is exactly what the pictures show online. This house comes with EVERYTHING you could ever need! If in doubt just ask and they will let you know. Aside from clothes and bathroom necessities you are covered! The pool and spa is where we spent most of our time! There are some maintenance people that come through but we were never interrupted and the schedule is listed when you get there. If you are on the fence about staying then all I can say is DO IT!
Heather U.

Hi Heather. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review of Dolphin Palms. We are very happy to hear how much you enjoyed the home! Yes, the property does require periodic maintenance to keep it in the best possible condition for our guests. This includes pool service, landscaping and pest service. We try to confine these brief visits to Monday and Thursday mornings to minimize any inconvenience, and we do not require our guests to be present for service calls. Quality control is very important to us. We try very hard to make sure all of our guests have an excellent and carefree experience when they arrive. Thanks again for choosing Dolphin Palms for your vacation in Fort Lauderdale. Best, David

I booked this house for my wife’s annual Girls Retreat with her mother, sisters, and nieces. They loved this place and it’s close proximity to the beach.

5-STAR REVIEW. Excellent process from A-Z. Everything was very smooth. The house and stay are worth every penny. The house was super clean and organized when we arrived. The instructions and manual make everything seem so easy. Amenities there were A+. Seriously, every little thing to help make our vacation great was thought about and included. Location was perfect, 2 blocks from the public beach (3-5 minutes walk). Beautiful neighborhood. A few minutes from the mall, restaurants and shops. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and I will certainly be renting this house again.

If you see this property available for your travel dates, definitely book it! everything about it is PRISTINE..So clean, very well stocked with everything you will need for a beach vacation including beach chairs, a sand wagon kids toys and even sunblock. This property has an exclusive entrance to Birch State Park which is a must when travelling to Fort Lauderdale. We had 6 women and plenty of room for all of us. The pool and hot tub are heated and the neighborhood quiet. There is not one negative thing I can say about this property and I'm high maintenance!

Hi Carrie, Thanks for sharing your experience at Dolphin Palms! I appreciate your mention of the private entrance to Birch State Park at the end of the block. That entrance is reserved exclusively for residents of our neighborhood. Having easy access to the wonderful nature trails and other features of the park has been of great value to our guests. Keeping this home in tip top shape for my guests is my priority, so I am very pleased to hear how much you and your friends enjoyed your stay! I very much enjoyed having you as my guests.

I recently booked a 5 day stay at this beach house for me, my aunt, and 3 of our friends. As soon as you walk inside the house, it takes your breath away! The promotional video and pics honestly does not do this location enough justice! It is absolutely gorgeous! Each room is decorated and stocked beautifully with whatever you need. The ambiance is luxurious making you feel like royalty while staying there. Two of us, myself and my aunt were celebrating our 39th, and 40th birthdays and it could not have been better. The house was stocked with pretty much everything needed for your stay! I hope that this house is available on my next stay! We Loved it

Great winter getaway!
February 21, 2021
This house was perfect for a quiet getaway from the snow in New Jersey! Vincent, the property manager, met us upon our arrival and explained how everything worked. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we could need for cooking and it was all in beautiful condition. The whole house was impeccably clean which made us feel very comfortable during these times. We loved the easy access the Hugh Birch State Park at the end of the block and enjoyed daily bike rides (bikes not included with the house, but would be a very welcome addition) and walks on the paths. The quick walk to the beach was ideal and the house is even equipped with a great cart to tote chairs and supplies. Our only issue was that the wifi was a bit finicky at times, which made it a bit hard for my husband to be ‘working from home’ and it could use an extender to work better in the yard since that is where we spent much of our time. The house is exactly as shown and I would highly recommend renting it!

Hugh Birch State Park, with its wonderful nature trails, is a unique and special advantage for this home, in that our guests enjoy free private access to the north entrance to the park. We do not provide bicycles for the home. However, there are bicycle rentals nearby, which are also able to provide prompt repair service as needed, which we are not able to do. Thank you for alerting us to the WIFI concern. After hearing about this, we immediately contacted our AV specialist, who rebooted the system and added another WIFI access point. We also upgraded to 1 gig service, which provides very strong signal throughout the property, even in the outside patio areas. Since then, our guests have had no difficulty streaming on their favorite devices or Zoom conferencing. Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to share our home with you. We hope to see you again soon!

Superb Property!

This is a stunning property and every detail is considered. The decor and design details are superb. Well stocked from the kitchens to the bathrooms. Property manager is helpful and attentive. The layout of the house is great for a family or large group. The patio is just amazing and perfect in the day or evening. We travel a lot and I would not hesitate to come back to this property. Well managed and well done!

Hi Michelle, Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts about my home! This home is truly a labor of love for us. Maintaining a tropical vacation home in 5-star condition requires solid teamwork. Louis Shaw from Style Vacation Homes designed the home, and his team has done a great job of maintaining the property over the years. Their attention to detail has been very valuable to me and to my guests. You and your family were wonderful guests, and we hope to see you again one day in the near future! Best, David

Awesome experience and stay!
August 10, 2020
We had an awesome experience and stay at the Dolphin Palms. We loved the home, the pool, the hot tub and the proximity to the ocean. All of the amenities and features worked very well and we stayed in and cooked (due to COVID) almost every single meal. And when we did have delivery or when we did go out, everything was perfect and close by. The only thing that kept this from a 5 star review was that we were asked to change the propane on the grill and bring down the rolling garbage bin to the curb, even though there was a maintenance person of some kind at the home pretty much every day.
Mitch L.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about our home. We are very proud of this home, and we do our best to make sure our guests have everything they need for a great vacation experience. Our property manager Vincent does pull the wheeled trash and recycling carriers to the curb for pick up, as he did during your stay. We request that our guests kindly perform that task only if for some reason Vincent is unable to do so. This assures that our guests will not run out of room for trash and recycling during their stay. Regarding the propane tanks, we always provide an extra tank for our guests' convenience, in case the first tank runs out. Vincent would have been happy to explain how to switch propane tanks if you needed assistance. On the day of your departure, we provided you with a 2 PM check out at no additional charge. As always, our guests' comfort is our priority. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay.

This was me and my family?s first trip to Fort Lauderdale and our first time renting a home for our vacation. This house was the most amazing place we have ever stayed. The property manager, Vincent, was excellent. The first night the air conditioner was giving us problems and it was fixed the very next day. The home is absolutely beautiful and is just as pictured. The house is equipped with everything you will need and is a short walk to the beach. I can?t express enough how perfect this house is and we will definitely be staying again.
Shynese M.

Hello Shynese. I am so glad to hear how much you enjoyed the home! We also love this home, and we relish the relaxation and comfort it provides whenever we have the opportunity to stay there. Tropical vacation homes near the ocean require vigilant maintenance. We replaced the central AC unit with a brand new system after your departure to avoid any further mechanical issues. We are fortunate to have an excellent cleaning crew and a property manager who is also very attentive. We would be very pleased to share our home with you again. Hope to see you soon!

Enjoyed our Stay
October 18, 2019
Check in process was easy and helpful. Vincent walked us through the entire property to make sure we were comfortable. We did encounter an issue with the pool operations, but Vincent quickly arranged for a pool specialist to check it out the next morning. The issue needed additional attention so we were shown how to operate things manually as to not disrupt the stay. Very clean place, has most everything you would need to cook your own meals. Pool and hot tub were clean and inviting. The neighborhood was quiet and close to the happenings along the beach. Despite the hiccup with the pool, we would stay here again. I would recommend to others.
Matt A.

Hi Matt, I very much appreciate your taking the time to provide your thoughtful feedback about my home. I am happy to say that we have resolved the technical issue with the pool/spa control panel. In the meantime, Vince was happy to assist you with the manual operation of the equipment. While technical difficulties can occur in any home, we make it our priority to manage our guests concerns as promptly as possible. I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We hope you will have the chance to visit again some day. Best, David

Interior Design Spectacular!

This property has it all! Absolutely beautiful! Excellent space for my family, interior design spectacular, incredible outdoor landscaping with pool, hot tub and 2 outdoor showers to rinse off after spending the day at the ocean (which is a 5 minute walk). Vincent, the property manager, attended to every need quickly and was a great resource for us.
Shelly L.

Hi Shelly. Thanks so much for taking the time to offer your feedback about Dolphin Palms! Louis Shaw from Style Vacation Homes is responsible for the interior design. I conceived of the landscaping design. That is my special interest. Our neighborhood is unique in being so close to both the beach and to Birch State Park (at the end of our block). Our key fob provides private entry to the rear gate of the park, offering many lovely nature trails and views of the intracoastal waterway - perfect for running, walking and bicycling. Thanks again for being our guest. We hope to see you again! Best, David

Hi. Thank you so much for your comments about Dolphin Palms! In my own travels, I have discovered the difference between a typical rental and a high-quality vacation home.

I also try to provide all of the simple conveniences that my guests look forward to. Thanks again for letting me know how you felt about Dolphin Palms. I appreciate your thoughtfulness as a guest.

Hi Jara, Thank you so much for your comments about Dolphin Palms! I must give credit for the design to Louis Shaw from Style Vacation Homes. Regarding the amenities, I try to supply everything that I would want if I were staying in a five-star hotel. Unlike hotels with a concierge desk, we homeowners have to anticipate in advance the needs of our guests. I stay in the property myself about once a month to make sure that everything is perfect. I designed the landscape to create the feel of a private tropical oasis. It feels absolutely serene to me, and I'm glad that you enjoyed it too. Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review about my home. I hope you will think of Dolphin Palms again when you return to Fort Lauderdale. Best, David

We absolutely loved everything about this rental house. Beautiful house, super clean, great labels/instructions throughout the home. All the amenities were fabulous.

Minor note for consideration: Would suggest enhancing wifi as no wifi in the master bedroom or patio area.
Aryeh F.

Hi Aryeh. I was very pleased to see your review of Dolphin Palms! Thank you so much for your kind words! My AV specialist did install a Wi-Fi booster some time ago, and that was successful in providing a strong Wi-Fi signal throughout the home and outside areas. I will ask him to investigate the weak signal. Perhaps there is a malfunction in that unit. I am aware that the WIFI was working for the guests who checked out on the day that you checked into my home. The WIFI will be affected by larger numbers of people in the home. Between your guests and visitors, it's my understanding that you had over 15 people in the house daily. The signal will be weakened If that many people are accessing the WIFI. Thank you very much for your feedback. It will help me to maintain my home in the best possible condition for my guests. I appreciate your choosing Dolphin Palms for your family vacation. All the best to you in your future travels! David

House that felt like Home!

We had 7 adults that stayed at Dolphin Palms. This house is absolutely beautiful! We were in the area April 2019 for the Tortuga Music Festival which we have been to for 6 years and always rented a hotel.This was the best decision we made renting this house. The house was immaculate and has everything you need from linens,toiletries,kitchen had everything needed for cooking indoor or outside on the grill. The pool and jacuzzi were clean and the temperatures just perfect,pool lights were cool too! Beds are very comfortable and clean! Neighborhood was very quiet so if your a loud partying group this area is not for you! We also enjoyed a hike in the local park that we had free access. Everyone at Style Vaction Homes has been very helpful and was in touch with us every step of the way. Vincent was very thorough with the walk through of the home. All of us loved it and will definitely be back!

Hi Lila, I appreciate your candid feedback about your stay. Needless to say, I am thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed my home! Louis Shaw, who is the owner of Style Vacation Homes, worked closely with the architect, and he conceived of the soothing interior design you describe. I was more involved with the landscaping. (Gardening is my passion!). If you loved Dolphin Palms, then you will also love my home in Provincetown, MA. It is a completely renovated, historic 4- bedroom home filled with quintessential Cape Cod charm. My favorite activity there is having my cup of coffee while watching the bay from the gliding Adirondack chairs on the front porch. Louis was also instrumental in designing that home, which is quite different from Dolphin Palms, but equally beautiful. You can view it on the Style site, ID 100123. How visitors feel about my homes matters a great deal. The goal is to have you feeling physically and emotionally transported to a serene and tranquil destination

Amazing house, perfect location
February 08, 2019
We spent a week at Dolphin Palms and enjoyed every second of it. The house is amazing, the location was perfect and the house had every amenity one would need. It is obvious that the owners care and succeed at giving their guests a truly positive experience. The layout of the house offers privacy if one seeks it and big open spaces for gatherings. Sadly the weather wasn't perfect but with the heated pool and hot tub we hardly noticed. The backyard area is amazing and so peaceful. The landscaping is lush and beautiful. The location was perfect, walking distance to everything, beach, great restaurants, the state park. We have rented other homes, but this is far and away the best experience we have had. If you have the opportunity to stay at this gorgeous home, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for a great stay.

Hi Randy and Ellen. We very much appreciate your wonderful review of Dolphin Palms! We are so glad that you and your family found our home welcoming even when the weather was not. Though we started with an empty yard only three years ago, we envisioned a private oasis with pool, waterfall, two outdoor showers, in-ground hot tub and comfortable seating areas, surrounded by lush and colorful vegetation. We are fortunate to have achieved such a soothing environment, and we are always happy to hear how much our guests enjoy the end result. We hope that you will visit again soon, and that you will experience our typical sunny Florida weather, so you can take full advantage of everything our area has to offer!

Best vacation ever!!!
December 18, 2018
I wanted to celebrate my 50th birthday by taking a trip with my husband and some friends (couples). Dolphin Isles had the feel of a private resort. Located 2 blocks from the ocean in a private, quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed relaxing in the pool (nice and warm even in Dec.) and in the evening sitting in the hot tub. If you are looking for luxury accommodations- this is the place for you! We were a short walk from the ocean and wonderful restaurants. The property manager was amazing and ensured that we were comfortable and had a wonderful stay. We will be back!!!! Thanks so much for taking time to leave such a nice review of our home, Dolphin Palms! It is truly rewarding for us when our guests let us know how much they enjoy our home. Our goal was to create an escape from the usual, a private tropical oasis with a feeling of casual elegance.

Dolphin Palms Thanksgiving
November 30, 2018
This was our second Thanksgiving spent at this house. The house is really wonderful. First we love the heated pool and hot tub. We love being able to walk into an 85 degree pool and feel instantly comfortable. The deck area has all the comforts you would think of or need, including the 2 outdoor showers. The house is recently fully renovated and very nicely and comfortably furnished. It is supplied with everything we needed and more. Most places we stay at require visits to the store to get supplies initially or to restock. This requires neither. The HDTVs in every room, the Sonos system throughout the house and outside, the fully stocked kitchen, and on and on were appreciated. Will definitely return again.

Thanks so much for your kind review of our home! We are glad you were able to enjoy the home for the holidays.

Most recently we have added remote control cafe lights to the pergola over the back patio. This provides a soothing night-time ambiance for the outdoor seating area and dining table. We try to keep our kitchen gourmet-friendly.

Pure luxury, every detail is thought of: step into this beautiful home and relax. Professionally decorated, spacious, open concepts- exactly how I would like my home to be. We enjoyed the heated pool and spa, the outdoor showers, eating on the patio, using Sonos; gorgeous gourmet kitchen stocked with spices, oils, and everything you need to plan meals at home (if you wish). A few bugs 'no-see-ems' in backyard (easily taken care of with spray). Used the carts to bring chairs and umbrella, towels etc to the beach which is approximately 5 min walk (with my elderly mom)- this was very useful. We also used Hugh State Park (ask for the padlock code) for trail running and exploration (entrance 2 minutes from the home down 32nd NE street). Vince, the manager was very accessible and professional. I have looked to rent this home in February, however, it is not available, to our chagrin! We will be back another time.., I would rent again in a heartbeat.

Hello Tom, I am happy to hear that you enjoyed my home. Your comments are much appreciated. I'm glad you love the neighborhood as much as I. I'm not sure if you had a chance to venture to Hugh Birch Park at the end of the South corner of the block? The park has great walkways and views of the intracoastal. I love that they offer grills to BBQ and kayaks to take out on the lake. A new feature to this area is the Auberge Ocean front property. In just nearly a months time, there will be public access to their SPA, Bar/Cafe, restaurants and shops. Glad to have this beautiful feature to add to the great things that there are to do within a few blocks of my home. I wish you and your family a very happy holiday season. DH

Hello John, Thank you for your comments. I'm glad you were happy with your last minute reservation with us due to the fact that your family were not happy with the property that you checked into. I know that you were hoping to stay at the home across the street ( Coral Beach 100104) as you have in the past, but that home was occupied. We are pleased to hear that you were happy with Dolphin Palms-100107. This is my newest home that was completed recently in a very nice area known as Dolphin Isles. Like Coral Beach 100104, Dolphin Palms is a beautiful home with large open seating areas and a gorgeous pool and hot tub. The double outdoor showers is a very nice feature when the home can sleep up to 10. I personally enjoy the sitting area in the front yard to where I can allow my dog to roam and keep my eye on him. The landscape on the house has matured beautifully, it is very lush and sunny where needed. All this plus privacy makes the home special. I hope to see you again.

Especially useful to us were the carts provided to carry beach chairs, towels and toys ( also provided) for the short walk to the beach. There are 2 outside showers and hooked up hose to make sand removal easy. We also utilized the baby supplies ( high chair with bib, crib, etc.) Plenty of eating space and room for jigsaw puzzle too! The outdoor area with pool, hot tub and lots of seating is fabulous and relaxing. Vincent, the very helpful property manager, met us at check in to give us a thorough tour and answer any questions.

Thank you for your kind words toward my decor. I had Louis Shaw, the owner of Style Vacation Homes design and decorate my home. He has a keen design eye when it comes to setting up my house. I do hope that you will consider staying with me again. I also have another home that Louis has designed and decorated for me that is located in this area but on the other side of A1A. Even closer to the beach and restaurants. That house has a roof deck that offers ocean views. I love that house as much this one. The house is also on the Style website ID 100104. Like this home, it also offers a virtual tour. I hope to see you again soon Jamie. All the best! David H.

Amazing property - we'll be back!!
June 30, 2018
From the booking, to the check-in information, the personalized "tour" of the property and the property itself, we could not have been happier. The house is stunning, with great attention to detail and beautiful decor throughout. Kitchen is amazingly well stocked and great appliances. Even the laundry room is top notch. Every bed is extremely comfortable. All six of commented on them and how well we slept. Linens are so nice! Bathrooms are beautiful as well, with luxurious towels and stocked with shampoo and soap. Great sized living room, family room and dining room (although we only ate at the table once). Pool and spa are in perfect shape and the control panel to operate everything must be from Star Wars (easy to use though). Plenty of comfortable seating and lighting outside and TWO outside showers for when you come back from the beach (which is a short easy walk) or a jog. Highly recommend this property. Two refrigerators, grill and basic supplies included. Great location!!

Hello Jon, I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed my home. I appreciate your comments. It takes a great team to maintain my home to my standards. Louis Shaw and his staff at Style Vacation Homes has done an amazing job at making sure my home and guests are well taken care of. I hope you will consider my home for your future travels. Fort Lauderdale Beach is continuing to develop into a spectacular destination for travelers. The Auberge should be having their grand opening soon. They are offering great restaurants, shops and a state of the art salon that is available to the public. I have seen the plans and it is quite fabulous. What a fantastic attraction it is for our neighborhood. Thank you again Jon. All the best to you and your family and friends! David H.

Rating: (5.0 / 5 stars) Comments: Clean! Everything you need and more! Expectations were beyond what we hoped for. Vincent the property manager was exceptional with details of the property and super personality! Great memories here and we would rent this again. The only suggestion would be to spray the backyard for mosquitos; they were bad!Thank you for your feedback. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed our home. I'm sorry to hear about the mosquito issue. The amount of rain occurring in Florida these past weeks has had an impact on the mosquito population for all homes in South Florida. Not many home owners treat for mosquitos. They expect guests to use repellents to protect themselves. We provide both. We service our homes twice a month in addition to providing insect repellent, and that seems to work well under normal weather conditions. We will increase the frequency of treatments to help keep this from being an issue for our guests. Thank you

50th Anniversary Fun!
June 02, 2018
Our family vacationed to Ft. Lauderdale for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary and stayed at Dolphin Palms. It is an absolutely beautiful house, even better than the pictures. The pool, hot tub, and outdoor showers are amazing. The house is comfortable, spotless, and has everything you could think of needing. The management company was wonderful to work with, and we would definitely go back.

Beautiful retreat!
May 31, 2018
We very much enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Palms. The house was equipped with anything you could think of, from kitchenwares, televisions, towels, chairs, Sonos sytem, shampoo and bodywash etc. We were traveling with a 4 year old and 1 year old, and they had a full sized crib with bedding, high chair, pack & play, beach and pool toys to use. The house was pristine, and everything was exactly as pictured on Home Away. The pool and spa were wonderful, we spent most of our days in the pool and dining outdoors. The beach is a quick 5 minute (or less) walk, and if you drive there are public parking spaces close to the beach entrance. Vincent, the property manager was very helpful, and responsive to questions. Our only issue was that the outdoor Sonos speakers were disabled due to the noise ordinance, but that has more to do with the city than the property owner. We loved our stay, and hope to return again.

Beautiful convenient vacation spot
May 22, 2018
? ? ? ? ? This house was perfect for the 6 adults and 2 babies in our group. It is well maintained and offers many conveniences. The pool area is beautiful. I read a review that said there was an issue with bugs- we did NOT find that to be true. The kitchen was great, fully stocked and ready to use. Bedrooms are lovely and beds are comfortable. It was nice to have TVs with Comcast in every bedroom. There is some baby gear at this house that isn’t mentioned in the property description.. should you need it, a crib and 2 pack n plays are available. And with notice I believe Vince (property manager) will set them Up. The people (especially Cindy) at the property management agency were easy to talk to and very helpful.

April 10, 2018
The house is beautiful!!! We loved the way it was decorated, some much space in the home. The master bed and bath were perfect.The 3 bedrooms. were in a separate wing, which was great. The pool area was amazing. There are two showers outside and the kids loved them!! The pool area is great, you can be in the sun or shade and all of the furniture is so comfortable in and out.The back yard is very private and the plants are beautiful. It was only a couple blocks to the beach, it is across A1A, but not that busy, a very easy walk. Close to Fort Lauderdale beach, we drove in to that area a couple times. I like the area the house is in, it is quite, but if you want to get to the busy beach areas, it is an easy drive. We have rented many Florida homes and this is one of my favorites!!!

Beautiful Home!

I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a rental in Fort Lauderdale. The house is spacious and beautifully decorated. No stone was left unturned with regard to furnishings. From dishware to nightlights to large screen TVs, this house has it all! The pool and the hot tub were wonderful as well. This is definitely a 5 Star Rental.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this beautiful vacation home.  Traveling with parents, siblings, and our two little ones, it ended up being the perfect choice.  The house was recently renovated and is absolutely gorgeous with all the upgrades.  Even the bathrooms are something to look at! The layout is so spacious and comfortable. Every detail is so well thought out, and the house is beautifully maintained and clean and equipped with everything you can think of including a beach wagon, beach umbrellas and chairs, toys, inflatables, and all that you need to have fun at the beach!  The beds are comfortable! The entire property is more beautiful in person than in the photos.  During our stay, we would enjoy the first half of the day at the house enjoying all its amenities including eating on the patio and taking an outdoor shower.   The heated pool and jacuzzi are awesome to use at night as well and light up with colors.  There is a digital control system for water temp, bubbles, l

Simply Amazing!
January 12, 2018
We can't get over how perfect this property was. From how clean it was, to the front and back yard space and to the size of the living space. There is nothing this home didn't have. The property manager was patient and responded to our every need - he was amazing! The maintenance of the property is top notch - pool cleaned every few days, landscaping taken care of! The layout of the home is perfect if traveling with young children as the bedroom is far away from the noise and the main living space. We felt safe and at home at the Dolphin Palms. A true oasis, close to everything you need. This is a perfect family vacation home and we cant wait to return. Style vacation homes was amazing to work with answering every question I had. we have rented for years and always seem to find something that needs improving, but not here! Absolutely perfect!!! Thank you for having us! Elena and Family

Perfection
October 23, 2017
This property is truly a luxury vacation home. It was stocked with everything we needed to make it our home away from home. The décor is beautiful. The location is perfect to walk to the beach or to dinner. The backyard with the pool, hot tub and furniture was like having our own personal resort. It is in a quiet neighborhood so we were able to relax without disruption of loud music or parties. Louis and his team strived to make our stay as comfortable as possible and they succeeded!! I will rent this property again and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

Dolphin Palms
August 30, 2017
The house was wonderful, we truly enjoyed the amenities especially since it was a rainy week. We had a few issues the stove went out and the ac unit went out on the side of the house with the three bedrooms. We contacted Vincent for both incidents and he took care of them immediately. We also had an issue with the TV on Monday in the family room. We advised Vincent, TV came back on it continued to go in/out. Vincent contacted Comcast they were scheduled to come out Thursday morning. The technician was there approximately 30 minutes. Vincent was very attentive, proactive, friendly, professional. readily available to assist with any problems that occurred.

Perfect home! Couldn't have asked for better!
July 15, 2017
Amazing vacation at this beautiful home! From top to bottom, this home has it all! My husband, brothers, mother, and grandparents wanted a house where we could realax and spend time together at the pool and beach. This home had something for everyone with so much space to spread out and have privacy when needed. Felt like a 5-star resort! Vincent the manager was so kind and helpful- even helping my grandparents with their bags when they arrived at the house before we did. Can't wait to return again. Thank you Style Vacations for a stress-free vacation rental experience!

I would have given it 5 stars except for 2 small issues. I will start with the booking process they use pay pal and I got charged $45 per installment. I've booked other places and was able to use my credit card without additional fees. I had to pay 3 different installments which the last one was re-reimbursed. I spoke the owner asking why I couldn't pay everything at once he told me he would work on it. The 2nd issue was when they set up a arrival meeting with the gentlemen who took care of the house. We were set for 4 pm, I told them when our plane was landing and pushed it back to 4:30. When we arrived it was not ready. He was very apologetic but really gave us no reason as to why it was not ready. He was there for anything we needed. Unfortunately we had the only rain they have seen on the east coast of Florida in months. We still went outside and enjoyed the pool, hot tub, grill etc. I would recommend the house it was beautifully decorated and a great location.

Perfect Vacation
April 12, 2017
We absolutely loved our Dolphin Palms rental home. We rent homes every year and this was the best one ever. Vincent gave us a warm welcome and thorough briefing upon arrival, and responded to my questions immediately until I got the hang of all of the electronics. This pool was the first ever that was absolutely the perfect temperature from day one; same with the hot tub. The whole Style Vacation Homes team was a pleasure to work with and we would be happy to rent from them again next year!

Incredible Relaxing Getaway
March 31, 2017
This was my home for a week and it was OVER THE TOP! With cohesive and thoughtful decor, comfortable beds and spa like features, I was relaxed and well rested throughout my stay. There is nothing more peaceful than waking up to waterfall cascading into a pool every morning. Not to mention the location couldn't have been better, just a few steps away from the beach! The surround music system placed through out the inside and outside of the house was very nice as well. Without a doubt this has set the bar high for other future vacation rentals. Overall, this is a very special home I am over the moon to have found and hope to return to very soon.
