    The property has a great location, just across the street from public access to a very clean beach with pristine waters. It is a great way to be introduced to the Outer Banks.

    A bit older than the pictures. Not exactly what we expected.Pros:Recently paintedNice laminate flooring (no carpet)Spacious, open upstairs with partial ocean viewNew KeurigOlder washer/dryer, but they worked well.3 bedrooms on the middle floor, one a master suiteImmediate responses to problemsOur mini labradoodle loved it!Cons:Not as clean as we hoped. I vacuumed under and behind tables and under the couch (not including pic of that!).A dog house, so furniture is stained.Bottom floor with laundry had no bathroom, so my husband on a cane had to go upstairs from the pool.Pool has a major leak that we had to check each day to open hose for more water (The pool guy was great, though, and came more often.) He did say the owner will fix it end of season.Some small interior fixes needed.Hot tub on deck by road. Way too visible. Clean and checked twice a week, thoughDeck furniture moldy, so we didn't use the deck at all.Overall, we did have a restful stay during all the bad weather.

    I want to be fair and the house is decent, close to the beach entrance and the main area upstairs was a good place to gather. Hot tub is nice and on the top deck right off the living room/kitchen area. Kitchen was not well equipped, main table was sticky, peeling paint and in terrible condition and the sofa should be thrown out. Sliding door was almost impossible to open and close, fan over kitchen table was rusted through. Many of the fixtures are old and beat up and the pool is super tiny. Biggest issue was the A/C was not working on the top floor for the last couple of days. We called in and they sent a maintenance man fairly quickly but he really couldn't do anything. Next day the A/C company came out but said that the whole unit needed replaced. We were there in July with mid 90's and heat advisory with no A/C. Temp in the house was 80 degrees. Was told they would bring a portable A/C unit but it never came. I understand that this is an unforseen event but there should be better contingencies for your guests. No one ever followed up on this and really I feel bad as the next renters probably had to deal with this tood. Overall very dated house in a decent location, but no help when we needed it.

    Rented this home for the number of beds it contained. The top bunk railing was loose and had electrical tape wrapped around the bedrail and bed frame. Extremely wobbly and I did not allow my child to sleep there. Other than this, the house was great. We had to get an air mattress to use.

    Dolphin Watch is an awesome house, excellent location for beach access with an easy walk to your choice of 2 public beach accesses. This is our second stay here and one of our favorites. Nice upgrades include the top deck flooring with great porch furniture. New interior floors throughout. The two bedrooms with master beds were comfortable. The living room furniture is comfortable too. Only thing that would make it perfect would be kitchen sink sink stoppers to make washing dishes and counters easier (right now they just have drains to catch any food debris) and a few storage food containers for leftovers would be great. Not a big deal as you can bro those items with you. The dishwasher, washer and dryer all work great!

    We chose this home for its location, four bedrooms, pool, and hot tub! The location had easy access to the beach and walkable to coffee shops, ice cream shops, and grocery store! It was well equipped for our family of nine! Only downside was our thoughts that it could have been cleaner! We had a wonderful week with perfect weather!

    We loved the house! So close to the beach. It had all of our needs. Had a hiccup with the entry code getting in, we called the emergency number and they called back within 20 minutes with a new code. We decided on this last minute vacation and our first time renting from this company and would book again.
