The property was clean and check in very easy. Only thing I can say was unique about the property is the levelness of the floors and walls. They are not level in most rooms so it makes you feel kind of off balance when walking around. Overall it’s a cute beach cottage in a great area!

Cute Beach Cottage

We spent three weeks at Blue Dolphin, and were very pleased with the house. It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It is also convenient to many restaurants and to the beach. The hosts were quick to answer any questions we had. I would recommend Blue Dolphin to anyone looking for a nice place to stay on Tybee Island.
