The house is amazing with feeling of being outside and the pool and outdoor space integral. Location is perfect for a relaxing trip - not too close to all the hubbub but also with access to restaurants and beaches close by. Kitchen well appointed. Nice extras of beach and snorkel gear available to use. Ingrid was very helpful with tips and recommendations. We had a seamless experience and would highly recommend.
This is the second time we've stayed in Dolphin House. We love it here. The view from the deck and the sunsets are amazing. We also loved seeing the iguana(s) in the hedge, feeding the Venezuelan Troupials, Bananaquits, and watching the two parakeets fly by.The house is near several beaches, a great restaurant--Eetcafe De Buurvrouw (The Woman Next Door), and the Flamingo Sanctuary.The house was spotless and had everything we needed. The owner, Paul, caretakers, Ingrid and Ivan, were so nice. They quickly answered any questions and were most helpful.I at 81, my friend at 67, and her daughter at 42 found that Dolphin House is perfect for us, and we wouldn't consider staying anywhere else.
My family and I greatly enjoyed our adventure in Curacao! Myself, my husband and our twin 16 year old boys explored, relaxed and ate our way through the island. What made the trip perfect was booking and staying at Dolphin house. The house and Coral Estates meet all our needs. We wouldn’t change a thing!
The villa is situated in a nice luxury resort ‘Coral estate’.The villa itself has all the comfort you can wish for There is an amazing view from the terras over the sea.On top of it there is an infinity pool in which we after our beach day again could enjoy the cooling effect of the nice water.The managers of the house are very friendly and helpfullWe had a wonderful holiday in this beautiful houseWe would certainly reccomend this house to every one
This home is absolutely fabulous! The pool and the view is spectacular. The property is clean and well-maintained. One of the property managers met us upon arrival and answered questions and helped us get started with our vacation as well as kept in contact via Whatsapp when we had questions. The home is everything it said and pictures are 100% accurate. The property owner kept in contact as well and was of great assistance once our plane landed. The home has everything you could need to have a pleasant stay. 5 stars across the board! We would definitely stay here again!
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.
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.
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.
The Dolphin House is everything it promises to be and more. The view and pool are fantastic. Curacao is warm and we used the pool at least 2-3 times daily to cool down. The pool was very private which also makes is doubly beneficial. The air conditioning in the bedrooms worked very well. All in all, this house is in a very private, quiet neighborhood located very central to all the great beaches. You will enjoy yourself staying here.
The house was as pictured. The outside was wonderful for swimming, dining and relaxing. The kitchen was the best stocked that we have seen in all the properties we have rented. It has been well cared for. It was also nice to have the restaurants available down in the resort area. Ingrid was fabulous as the local contact/manager...she even went and picked up our pizza after we found out that they couldn't deliver it (our husbands had taken the car to go fishing) and paid for it since they wouldn't take our credit card over the phone (we did reimburse her of course)...she went above and beyond and DEFINITELY appreciated. She responsive our whole stay. It was a great stay!!!
Lovely property, exactly as described on the website. The location is excellent for short trips to the best beaches and a quick drive to the various attractions on the island. The manager was super accommodating and very responsive to inquiries (with a wealth of knowledge on places to visit, best supermarkets, restaurants etc.).We can absolutely recommend this property for a family!

Beautiful home
We had a wonderful experience , Nancy Jo was great to deal with, as was Ingrid. Home is in a great location, well equipped, and very private. We had a great vacation and would highly recommend staying here!
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.
As 2 couples travelling together the villa was plenty big enough. Beautiful pool with a fantastic view of the ocean. Thank you for sharing your villa on vrbo, we would definitely go back!
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.
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.
The Dolphin House on Coral Estate is a charming and cozy house on a great location. We loved the view and especially the terrace and great pool. In the 8 days we stayed here, we never sat inside. The house is good located on the wind and has a kitchen well equipped with everything you need. We will definitely come back!!
We postponed this trip for several months, but worth the wait.
Clean, private, quiet and everything was just as 'advertised'. Small extras like a welcome bottle of wine were much appreciated. We'll be back when we can!
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!
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!

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.

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!
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.
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.
