We had such a great stay at Dolphin Inn. Jorge communicated with us and was so helpful even before we got there. Check in was a breeze. The house was exactly as described and perfect for our three families to share for a week. Also - the house had absolutely every little thing you could need - beach chairs, umbrella, toys; fully stocked kitchen with any tools you might need; outlets set up everywhere. And everything labeled and accessible. If you want to feel like you are borrowing a friend’s home for the week, def stay here!

We were a family of 16 from toddlers to grandparents and this house was perfect for our group. The layout of the bedrooms and common areas worked great for us. There are thoughtful details throughout the home; such as a very well stocked kitchen, tons of dvds and board games, even baby gates and pack and plays. When we weren’t enjoying the pool and hot tub, there was plenty of room for us to gather in the main dining and living area for relaxing, playing games and having our meals. We really appreciated the beach chairs and cart for our short walk to the beach. There is a great bike bath out front so we rented bicycles to ride into Duck for shopping and sightseeing. Our host Jorge was extremely gracious and helpful throughout our stay. We can’t wait for a return trip!

Great beach house. Like a mini private resort. Kids loved it and wanted to stay extra days after our week was up. Beach one and half blocks away. Great pool, sauna, beach volleyball. Mother deer and two fawns strolled by property almost daily. Also saw Dollphins while on the beach. Kids couldn't wait to get back to the beach in the evening to see and catch the "Ghost Crabs".Jorge great host and assures your stay will be everything you expected. Southern Shores a great upscale local and convenient to everything like shopping, activities and other towns. Just a great family vacation!

We caravanned fromMichigan with 2 other families and spent a week at the Dolphin Inn! The house was perfect for three families (10 kids and 6 adults) and we had sleep room to spare. The house had everything you needed to have a great time outside (pool, hot tub, volleyball court, play structure, etc) and inside (TVs everywhere, games, etc.) Host was always available and accommodating! Really had a great time and when the OBX comes calling again - this is where we are staying!
