Experience Grand Isle

Louisiana's Hidden Gem

Grand Isle is a hidden gem in the very deep South. We have a delicious array of fresh seafood, including an abundance of shrimp, fish, and crabs, as well as crawfish during the peak season of early spring until mid-summer.

Come on down and share this serene and culturally enriched little island with us!

World-Class Fishing

Cast your line into some of the richest fishing waters in the Gulf. From redfish and speckled trout to tuna and marlin, Grand Isle is a true angler's paradise. Whether you're fishing from the beach or pier, chartering a boat, or grilling up your catch, here you are right at the heart of it all.

Words from our guests...

  • Christine
    We stayed here for one night as we came into town for a wedding. The cottage was cute, clean, and all we needed! Would definitely book again if we are ever in the Grand Isle area! Thanks for hosting us
  • Jeremy
    Blue Dolphin was absolutely perfect. Communication, check-in, location, amenities, cleanliness, staff....everything. We couldn't have asked for a better place.
  • Kelly
    The cottage was very clean and the mini splits were wonderful. Pot, burner, and propane checkout was convenient as we didn't have to haul from home. I will definitely consider booking again in the future.
  • Harold
    We had a great stay at the cottage in Grand Isle! It was the perfect spot for our family-2 adults and 3 kids-to relax and enjoy some time outdoors. The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed.
  • Joni
    This place was absolutely adorable. The mom in me was totally fangirling over the appliances in the kitchen!! I loved the location and the convenience of the amenities. Fantastic location being literally at the beach access.
  • Caden
    This place was very comfortable and very clean. Plenty of towels and very comfortable beds! Karen and her property manager were great to work with. Polite and responsive. I would definitely stay with Blue Dolphin again.
