A few changes could go a long way!
Overall our stay was great. It is likely we would stay again but there are a few items that were frustrating and if they can be corrected, it would go a long way! All of our emails regarding check in stated no later than 4:00 p.m. our door code would be sent via text. We were at the house, ready to get in and get settled and did not receive any information about getting into the house until almost 4:30. The manager said this was due to low staff. I get that it takes time, but if the contract says no later than 4:00 p.m., then that should be when the code is sent. The description listed the third floor pull out couch as the final sleeping option. However, there were no linens or pillows for this bed. We had to call to get linens sent to the house and all that was brought was sheets. We found extra pillows from throughout the house. If this is listed as an option for sleeping--this should have been included at the house from the beginning. I am sure that finding suitable mattresses for a rental is difficult, however, the first floor mattress had broken springs and was sunken in various spots of the king bed. The other mattresses seemed to be older and in need of replacement as well. The ceiling fan in the second floor master could only be on if the light was turned on. We asked about the coffee pot set up before arriving: Keurig or full pot. We were told both were available and brought our K-cups--however no Keurig, but there was a Nespresso! Little fixes to be great!

Lovely home
We enjoyed our stay at Blue Dolphin! The home is very well appointed and in a great location, very easy walk to the beach. That being said, there are some areas of upkeep that need immediate attention! We reported a horrible carpet stain. The carpet needs replacing! Also, only one eye of the stove worked. And finally, the breakers would go off with any usage of more than one appliance in the house. Please take a week of deep cleaning, replacing, and checking for proper working order to get this property to what it can truly be again.

GREAT LOCATION
Really nice house with easy access to the beach across the street. We tried the chair and umbrella service at the Santa Clara Regional Beach Access point, but it was crowded. The access off of Campbell street was never crowded and we could usually reserve a spot in the front row right on the water. Just had to make sure we had our chairs down there before 8 am. A local guy told us not to try to use any space in the private beach area to the left of the access point, but anything to the right would not be a problem. We tried to stay within the private area right off the Campbell St access. The house was awesome! There was some very minor and normal wear on some floors downstairs and the carpets on all the other floors desperately need to be replaced, but other than that everything was in great shape as listed in the photos. The pool in back is tiny. It's really more of a place to cool off every once in a while you sunbathe on the deck. Nice to have, but none of us really sunbathed out there so we didn't use it. We rented a golf cart for the week so our smelly and sand-filled stuff would not dirty our car. I was great, but you probably could get away with not having one if you wanted to because there are a few great restaurants within walking distance.

Great stay in Santa Rosa
I was very disappointed in the fact the property was not rented for 3 days prior to our stay and we could not get access to an early check-in on our check-in day. The house is gorgeous, lots of space and was relatively clean but the carpets could use a cleaning as well as the patio furniture. The only real issue is the kitchen stove. Electric stove is outdated, the electric eyes seem to work when they want to. The Saturday morning of our stay, the stove shorted and popped a fuse, I could not locate the fuse box. I called property support and they walked me through where the box was, switched the fuse back on and got the stove to semi-work. If you enjoy cooking on vacas with fam and friends like we do, this might not be your spot, unless they get a new stove. Otherwise, great location, great house, great beaches and Santa Rosa is a really really really nice place, nice people as well. I'm definitely looking to come back later this summer. Oh and that pool is not a pool. More like a heated jacuzzi lol

The house was ok but the pull out bed on the third floor was broken. The springs that held up the pull out were missing. The sheets left for that bed were too small. Fortunately the little boys could sleep on the downstairs couch. House was fairly clean but the kitchen sink was dirty, especially around the top.

Great location
The house was located on a quiet street in a great location. Quick and easy access to the beach. We enjoyed riding the bikes that were provided along 30A and used these as our mode of transportation for the week. We did experience a few issues which the management company did address but communication between the management company and the renters is an area that can be improved upon. There was no information provided prior to arrival or at the house regarding Wi-Fi access information. The day after our arrival we were informed by the pool cleaners that the pool pump had not been on/working and it was not safe to use the pool until this was fixed. The management company did work on getting the Wi-Fi information and fixing the pool issue but it required several follow-up phone calls on our part as the information/updates were never communicated to us in real time as it became available. We knew the rental did not have beach chairs or beach towels for use prior to arrival but it would be nice if these items were included. Overall we enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning to the area!
