Great property and a beautiful island

We have used VRBO several times and this has been the best villa we have stayed in yet. The location in coral estates was quiet and safe. The house was well stocked and in excellent condition. It is about 30 minutes from the city but close to all the nicest beaches for scrumming and snorkeling. You will want to have a car but the island was easy to drive around.

Amazing view in a gated community

Loved the view, the sunsets, the iguana in our hedge, the Venezuelan Troupials and Banana Quits that came in to eat the sugar and orange slices we put out each day, the pair of parrots that flew by frequently.

Anniversary Getaway

We spent 9 nights at Dolphin House to celebrate our anniversary and it was wonderful. Everything was as described in the listing. Communication was timely and checkin/out was a breeze. Ingrid was very helpful and a joy to deal with. We absolutely loved the pool and the view and spent a full 3 days just lounging around the house. We would definitely return.

Perfect Curacao VRBO

This was the perfect spot for us. It was very quiet and relaxing. If you are looking for lively night life, look elsewhere. Many of the snorkeling spots were within easy driving distance. There is also a very nice restaurant in the development.

Beautiful house!

The house was perfect! It lived up to the pictures and was even better than we expected. Amazing outdoor space, lovely front sitting area under a shady tree, and a beautiful back patio with pool and ocean view. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Curaçao Villa

The villa was just the right place and had all the right amenities for our stay - including a fantastic view! The only short coming was the aging out of the patio furniture, needs to be replaced. We really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to book again if we return to Curaçao.

Paradise!

We loved staying at Dolphin House! The pictures give you a wonderful idea of how lovely it is but it is even prettier in real life. Nancy was great to deal with, as was Ingrid, the property manager. We enjoyed gorgeous sunsets every night as we lounged in the infinity pool. We'd definitely return. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful Spot!

Had a lovely stay at Dolphin House. Loved the location mid-island - very close to the best beaches. Daisbooi beach is 5 mins away and a beautiful gem! Rented a car and drove all over the island and loved coming back to the fabulous pool. Somehow it always stayed refreshing despite the hot weather. Great property - very private and safe. Loved watching all the birds - particularly the yellow headed parakeets. Thank-you Nancy Jo and Ingrid!

Wonderful

The listing was exactly as described. The house had a fully stocked kitchen and plenty of pool & beach towels. The best part was the wonderful pool in a private setting with a gorgeous view of the sea. Nancy and Ingrid were immediately available to answer any questions. You will need a vehicle because there is not much to do nearby but that didn't bother us in the slightest. I would definitely return.

Perfect property for a great holiday in Curaçao

The property lies in a calm, civilized area, close to some of Curaçao's most beatiful and accessible beaches and has a beatiful view over the pool on the Caribbean sea, The typical trade wind of Curaçao sweeps through the house which makes the house and porch comfortable even with high outside temperatures. The house is clean and contains everything for a comfortable stay in the tropics. The pool is lovely! And well-maintained. The property and its environment were major factors to make my holiday in Curaçao an exceptional one. I'd truly recommend a stay at Dolphin House to anyone.

Perfect

What a great house. Pool was awesome, location to beaches was a plus. The neighborhood is quiet so if you are looking for nightlife this is not the place for you….which we found delightful. Property manager met us for check in and out and was available for questions as they popped up. Ac in bedroom was very good. Kitchen is fully stocked with all you need….and then some. Grill works great. Our 10 day stay was great and we would not hesitate to book again.

Beautiful, comfortable, and relaxing

We spent the month of February at Dolphin House. Everything was perfect. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms are modern, the A/C in the bedrooms was great for nighttime. There is plenty of comfortable seating and dining areas. The sliders to the covered lanai and pool deck are huge and open fully, so you're "outdoors" even when inside. The view is wonderful. We had sun on the pool starting around 9:00 AM, and continuing all day with a beautiful sunset each and every night. Highly recommended!

This is a fabulous villa! The pool is the star.

The photo you see is what you get. A fabulous pool and view of the sea. Doors to the kitchen and living room open totally, so it's like living with only 3 walls. Compelling design. Lots to do on Curacao. Not just diving and beaches. Excellent restaurants, well-stocked grocery stores, good roads, lots of great island trips and museums (check out the guest book). Amsterdam/Europe in the Caribbean!

Your best choice in Curacao!

I highly recommend Dolphin house if you want to stay at the Coral Estate. The house has fantastic views of the ocean. The patio is very private and quiet, and it's such a wonderful experience to wake up each morning, opening the doors, and enjoying the day by the pool. The villa is super clean, and you have everything you need for your stay, nothing to worry about. We had a nice welcome from Ingrid, the property manager. It was very easy to organise our stay with Mrs Carr, the owner. She is a very nice person. The location of Coral Estate is perfect to explore the island, close to the western beaches and the city. Driving is pretty easy in Curacao. We can't wait to come back!

A place for couples

This home is a place for couples or perhaps someone looking for relaxation. My husband and I celebrated his birthday and our anniversary. The atmosphere is for people who just want to relax. We were here one week and wish we would have booked two weeks! We both have very busy lives at home. We work with people all day long. I even had to make business calls and deals while here on the island. Nevertheless, the pictures do not do justice to the actual scenery. We plan to come back. This is just what we needed!

Honeymoon in paradise

My husband and I stayed here for our one week honeymoon and could not have been more pleased. The view was incredible, the amenities were up to date and all in working order, and the house was immaculate. The wi-fi was especially appreciated for looking up reviews of restaurants and getting directions to the beach. Also helpful was a binder that included maps, dining suggestions, and local supermarkets and gas stations. We were pleasantly surprised to learn that the pool is much deeper than it looks in the photos. We thought it was about 4 ft deep all around but there is definitely a deep end. The nearby resort (Habitat Curacao) was closed for our visit but they are scheduled to open soon, we didn't miss it though. A nearby beach, Playa Porto Marie, was so relaxing. FYI: Cas Abao beach was fun but more crowded, further away, and more expensive than Playa Porto Marie. Nancy Jo was incredibly easy to work with and Heidi was especially helpful on our arrival. We would definitely recommend this to our friends and family.

Super flexible and efficient owner

We stayed 3 nights in July. we are a family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Due to last minut change in our itinerary in July, we needed a house urgently (within 24 hours) for 3 nights in Curacao. We contacted Nancy (the owner) and she was extremely helpful and organized the booking in within 1 hour. Fantastic! More than can be expected. The villa is also fantastic. It has a good location, great pool, good for bird watching, very clean and very easy to prepare meals (good cooking utensils), a gas grill and no mosquitoes. In front of the house there is a kind of a walk way leading to the beach (a little hidden ). From there it takes about 7-10 minuts to walk to the beach where there is a diving shop, a restaurant and beach chairs to rent. We are certified scuba divers however due to the short time frame we stayed we did not choose to dive, but I would like to - next time. The whole area around the beach is being modernized and now lively and nice compared to 2010 where we also stayed in Coral Estates. At the restaurant it is possible to sit at the beach and enjoy a drink or meal. In total the villa is super good for both relaxation and near by activities.

It’s perfect!

I rent at least three VRBO homes a year. Usually large houses with big groups. There were only three of us this trip to Curacao, so this was my smallest rental. In a word (or three). Clean. Comfortable. Amazing. Nancyjo was responsive and helpful from the moment I booked the place. Best owner yet, and I’ve booked some expensive homes. Ingred, the on-site property manager was incredible. You can’t really understand all the perks to the property and community it’s in until you get there. Coral Estate is just amazing. The exclusive beach. The coffee shop. The restaurant. All top quality. And then there’s the most amazing beach on the island 10 minutes away. The garden and pool at Dolphin House are prestigious. The inside of the bungalow are very nice and cozy...the outside is perfection and that’s where you want to be. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, hot showers, cool AC in the bedrooms. If you want a smaller space with an incredibly view and resort amenities in a private home...book it!!
