Our entire family truly enjoyed Dolphin East. There was something for everyone! It met all our needs: plenty of rooms, views from multiple levels, the ocean right out the back door, place for wee ones to play down stairs, room to spread out, big table for family dining and game nights, well stocked kitchen for cooking, multiple fridges, even a place for you to get a little solitude away from the bustle of a big family. My personal favorite was the master with the porch. If you don’t feel like going out to the beach, you can sit up there and still enjoy all the best parts of it without the sand. It rained on us a couple of days, but that didn’t hinder us from having a good time because there’s enough room to keep kids and grownups busy if you can’t get outside. The neighborhood was friendly and felt very safe. We love being away from the busy beach activities, but still close enough to drive there. There were plenty of restaurant options within a few minutes drive and stores for those things we forgot. The beds were comfortable, the towels were wonderful, and there were enough bathrooms for all of us without having to wait on anyone to finish- that’s important with Littles. Our grown kids enjoyed the patio seating in the early mornings and evenings while the littles played on the screened-in back porch. The host was quick with responses also. Best family vacation to date! Thanks, Dolphin East!

8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
Great property with ocean view, short easy walk to the beach. Very well stocked kitchen , especially for a lot of people. Spacious kitchen with two refrigerators was very nice. The door that leads to downstairs doesn’t stay closed very well, along with the screen door on back porch is hard to close. Good deck chairs to enjoy the view. The balcony was big enough for storing beach gear, would be nice to have some hooks for beach towels to dry. We donated boogie boards and beach toys to add to the hug collection of beach chairs and floats. There were a few light bulbs out. Good amount of bath towels and the big washer and dryer is great! The beds are comfortable and the ceiling fans are fantastic. Could benefit from a rug outside the back door to wipe the feet a bit more. Unfortunately the floors weren’t cleaned very well and the outside decks were very sandy. The house is spacious and comfortable and would stay there again, the cleaning crew just missed the boat this time.
