Wonderful location with views of the water
We were excited to be able to stay in such a welcoming home. The many outside porches, pool deck and rooftop viewing area were wonderful places to spend time with friends. The location on IofP, very close to Sullivans was exactly what we were looking for. We appreciate the stay!

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!

Great Family Vacation
We loved Isle of Palms so close to Charleston and a great not crowded beach. The house was so comfortable for our large family with each bedroom having an ensuite bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped and the elevator was very convenient to carry the luggage to the different levels. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets from the roof terrace. We also liked the fact that our son's dog was allowed. The walk to the beach was very easy . We will come back!

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.

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!

Better than its Pictures
We selected this property with my brother's and my families based on location on less-crowded southern end of IOP, private pool and allowing dogs. It turned out that the spacious and nicely decorated home was a perfect getaway and we hope to return in future years. The house is really impressive inside, with high ceilings and premium furnishings. We especially loved the pool area, which is beautifully landscaped with bamboo, palmettos and (what looked to us like) banana plants. Porches on front and back of house provided a shady spot to sit any time of day. Beach was about a 5 minute walk and never very crowded, even on the weekend. Service also was attentive and quickly addressed the few issues that arose during our stay. Great vacation!

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!

Our Family Getaway
I certainly wish I could say Dolphin View was our own getaway, this is the second year in a row that we have rented it and certainly hope to return in the future. The house is just beautiful and worked out so well for our family of 10 for the week. The way the house is laid out and decorated makes it a first class place to relax and to enjoy time with extended family. I am so impressed with the detail trim work in the house we had to take lots of pictures to bring home to work into future projects of our own. The location makes it very convienent to Charleston and all it's fine restaurants and sites to see, to local golf and marinas, the beach and for local shopping. We made a lot of use of the great pool and hot tub as well. The biggest problem we had was having to leave to come home! Hope to be back soon!

Dolphin View For Real!
This house was perfect for us to share with our grown children and grandchildren - enough common area and enough privacy for all. It was tastefully furnished - not at all kitschy beach-themed - and the furniture was user friendly. It was all in excellent condition minus those pesky humidity-induced sticky doors. It had a Wonderful kitchen which was SO well- equipped! We really appreciated the plastic plates for the little ones, along with other thoughtful touches such as nightlights. The balconies were a huge hit and watching the dolphins never failed to charm us. We underestimated the magic of seeing the sunset from the upper balcony - what a wonderful way to end our days. The pool was terrific as well and it was so nice that it was private and shaded. Our only disappointment was that The Exchange Club directly across the street is doing some construction and the dumpsters and porta potty were rather inelegant views.

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.

Wedding Group
My family and I stayed at Dolphin View for our niece's wedding. We had 10 adults and 2 dogs with another friend thrown into the mix. It was perfect for us. Every couple had their own room with their own bathroom. A large kitchen and living area with numerous balconies with water views on both sides rounded out the house. Great roof top deck with a wet bar, pool with hot tub and a fireplace made this house a really fun and spacious house for us all. We had plenty of parking and most important we had an elevator for our two members with stair issues. The property was clean, well maintained and was even better than listed. The few maintenance issues we had were taken care of with a quick phone call or prompt visit by their maintenance personnel. We were only a few short blocks to the beach. It was a great stay, we would all recommend this house and would all love to visit again.

Beautiful house. The issue was with the cleaning staff.
When we arrived to Dolphin View there were 2 unwrapped unused tampons on the dresser in the kids' room. There was a pair of men's underwear on the floor in the main floor bathroom. We also saw multiple huge cockroaches which may or may not be common; I'm not sure. I mentioned all of this to the property managers who were very apologetic. If I managed a property that reported these types of issues I would at the very least send an inspector out to ensure the property is otherwise sanitary. What a shame considering this is a beautiful home and deserves to be kept up.
