Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I recently stayed at the Blue Dolphin Inn, and it was a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was inviting, and the innkeeper was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The check-in process was straightforward, although you have to drive a bit further down from the inn to reach the check-in spot, which is on the left-hand side marked by the distinctive Blue Dolphin sign. Despite this, the overall experience was fantastic, and we're already planning our next visit. We'll definitely be back to enjoy the hospitality and charm of the Blue Dolphin Inn. We want to see all the places back to its full potential there in Grand Isle. Favorite place to come as a kid.

They were friendly and easy to deal with. Everything was clean and well maintained. Beds were nice; tv in each bedroom. They made it a breeze to check in and out. I wont look any further than the Blue Dolphin.

Cute. Has 2 small bedrooms. A futon (full of stains), a table and 2 chairs. The kitchen was clean but the floors were dirty. Needed to be vacuumed and swept.

The beach access was a highlight, the bed incredibly comfortable, and the outdoor cooking setup was fun. Place was a bit small and the couch/futon somewhat uncomfortable but really not a big deal. Enjoyable and relaxing for sure!

I would (already have!) highly recommend Blue Dolphin to anybody! The location is perfect, across the street from the beach, the staff is so accommodating, and the cottages are extremely spacious.

Cozy, well maintained rooms on the beach
These on-the-beach, cozy, elevated-off-the-ground rooms are great for casual visits. The individual rooms for sleeping in our two-bedroom had exactly enough room for one person to get into the bed, but nothing else. There was a futon-couch in the main room along with a small kitchenette there.
