Stayed Jun 6, 2026Our family had a fantastic stay at Dolphin Watch The house comfortably accommodated all 11 of us, ages 13 to 78, and the beachfront location with pool made it perfect for our vacation.We loved the ocean views, easy beach access, and the daily setup of chairs and umbrellas, which made our beach days even more relaxing. The extra beach towels were a great touch, and Jim was responsive throughout our stay.The kitchen was well-equipped for a large group, with two dishwashers, two coffee makers, and a coffee grinder.Dolphin Watch was a wonderful place for our family! We would gladly stay there again!

Stayed May 30, 2026Communication was quick. Owner lives in town. Lots of room. AC worked great for us. The road side bedroom stays the coldest. Two dishwashers. Extra fridge in the garage. Easily fit 4 cars/trucks in the driveway without even having to use a garage. Far enough away from the pier to be out of the hustle and bustle but there is public access every couple of blocks. Love the touch of the 6 chairs and 3 umbrellas that the owner has put out for you. Makes it so much easier on you! Eat at Michael’s Seafood and shuckin Shack in Carolina beach as well as Celtic Creamery and Squigleys. Just remember this area prefers cash! Guest before us were not kind to the pool and I felt bad for how much cleaning they had to do to get all the sand out. We would absolutely stay here again!

Stayed Apr 23, 2026Dolphin Watch is a perfect name! We saw dolphins every morning! We reserved the house for a family reunion. The bedrooms were spacious and perfect for our multi-generation family. The beds were very comfortable. We used the heated pool and hot tub every day, and it was great to be able to walk out to the beach each morning. The spacious kitchen worked great for cooking for so many people. The living room had lots of comfy seating for lounging. Highly recommend!

Stayed Sep 6, 2025Our stay was excellent. The house was clean and spacious. The view was exceptional. The pool was delightful. Each morning we woke up to chairs and umbrellas being set up on the shore for us to enjoy. I loved the kitchen which was open and contained everything we needed. And I loved having a laundry on the two top floors; that was very convenient.I think we spent most of our time enjoying the decks overlooking the pool and ocean.

Stayed Aug 23, 2025We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful Kure Beach home! Our large family group of 12 adults and 9 kids fit perfectly, and the house never felt crowded. The layout was ideal for a big group, with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and spacious common area where everyone could gather comfortably.The kitchen was well-stocked and made cooking for a crowd so easy, and we loved having a large oversized dining space to enjoy meals together. The kids especially loved the rooms, pool and ping pong table, while the adults enjoyed the decks with ocean views and space to relax.The location couldn’t be better—just steps from the beach, so it was easy to go back and forth with the kids throughout the day. We also appreciated how clean and well-maintained everything was upon arrival, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout our stay.This home gave us the perfect backdrop for making family memories—whether it was morning coffee watching the sunrise, beach days full of fun, or evenings gathered together. We highly recommend this property for any large family or group looking for a perfect beach getaway.

Stayed Jul 19, 2025We had a wonderful stay at Dolphin Watch with our family of 16 ranging in age from 7 to 85 years old. The elevator was nice for my elderly parents. The pool and location on the beach were perfect with the high temps last week. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was fully stocked, and plenty of nice restaurants nearby. Jim, the owner, could not have been easier to work with and was quick to respond to texts. He even provided chair/umbrella set-up on the beach daily for us. Highly recommend booking this property.

Stayed Jun 14, 2025We vacation every other year with our children, grandchildren and extended family. We had a large group ranging from 3-62! It was a full house, yet we didn’t feel on top of one another. Plenty of spaces to separate. The house was clean, very well stocked with kitchen equipment and a had generous supply of paper towels, dishwasher and dish detergents. The bathrooms were also well stocked. Plenty of eating space for large groups. Our son even made his famous homemade meatballs, pasta (brought his own pasta board) and sauce for the whole group! The oceanfront views were stunning, especially from the two oceanfront bedrooms on the third floor! We are already missing the porch swing on the second floor deck! Plenty of outside seating on the decks and at the pool. The 3 beach umbrellas and 6 chairs set up every am was a much appreciated surprise! Plenty of parking space out front as well! We had 6 vehicles easily parked in the driveway.Jim was great to communicate with, responding timely with and any questions or concerns. We were also pleasantly surprised with Kure Beach. Much quieter and laid back atmosphere than we are used to which we really enjoyed. There is more activity just down the road in Carolina Beach. Close to Wilmington, and also Southport via the ferry. Would definitely recommend Kure Beach and Dolphin Watch!

Stayed Feb 21, 2025Mr.Kitts was so considerate and his home is absolutely stunning! It was even nicer than the advertised pictures due to recent updates. He checked on us to see if we had everything to make our time enjoyable. This home and location is so well equipped and the sunrises were simply amazing! Would definitely put this property at the top of my list for future stays!
