Dolphin Watch
The cozy old fashioned cottage was nostalgic for us but offered 2 fabulous porches with plenty of seating and awesome views of the ocean. Steps away from the beach this place was a great get away from everyday life. You will need to bring all the basics (like TP, paper towels, dish soap , trash bags etc) but knowing this in advance helped. Would definitely stay here again!!!

Great location!
Great location. Spacious house. Really enjoyed it. House needs some routine maintenance attention and you’re not getting alot of extras with your stay (I.e., things like having to supply your own toilet paper and hand soap) but other than those minor things, this house was a real gem!

Well maintained!
This is an older property but it is well maintained with beach theme decor. I loved the outdoor rocking chairs and the shaded area. I burn easily and was so grateful to have a shady retreat. The kitchen had the basics. The Ceiling fans were a plus.

It was okay.
This house is okay. It’s showing some wear and tear and could use some maintenance. Bathrooms are tiny, almost like you’d expect in an airplane. The outside shower was awesome. Some of our family reported the beds were very uncomfortable. Overall we were satisfied with the rental. The location is perfect, steps from the beach. Our last night there someone rented the house next to us and partied loudly until about 3 am, waking up most of our family.

This is the best cottage we’ve ever stayed in, steps to the beach. The accommodations were more than enough for the two of us. The house is in a great location too. Wish we were still there!

It was an excellent week and all we needed was found in Dolphin Watch. I would definitely book this property again.
