Our family of 11 (9 adults, 2 kids) had an awesome, week long stay at the Dolphin Watch. Jim went above and beyond to make our vacation enjoyable and stress free. A few things I’d like to note; the kitchen was very well stocked, the toiletries provided were great and the place was clean. As an unexpected bonus, Jim had beach chairs and umbrellas set up for us each day!! Jim arranged for us to have an early check in and personally went back to the house to search for and mail items we left behind after checkout. We were very impressed and would love to stay there again!

We loved this house, the location, the host, everything was great.

Even though the weather didn't cooperate, the place was so beautiful inside that we still had a wonderful family stay. Great communication and comfortable stay with our extended family. Kids loved the pool and access to the beach. Would definitely book again!

We had a group of family members with us for a week ranging in age from 9 to 71. The accommodations were top notch. Wonderful to have the pool and beach right out our door. PLENTY of room, even when we hosted a BBQ dinner for a total of 21 people. The kitchen and seating are expansive and the kitchen well stock with all the pots/pans/dishes/appliances you need. The bedrooms are great and wonderful listening to the waves literally all night from the oceanside rooms. Bathrooms were great size. The elevator was great for moving things in and out. Our host, Jim, was incredible! He was right back to me with any questions. Great location being not far from Fort Fisher Park and the aquarium. You are out of the hustle bustle but close to everything. The pool was perfect and maintain by a pool man I think twice during the week. Hot tub was an added benefit. Having three floors was great. Young kids had bedrooms on the first level and the "old people" were on the third floor, nice and quiet. We would return without hesitation. You really can't beat it.

Great property in a great location. Very well kept and I would recommend to anyone.

My ladies tennis team had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was clean, large enough to easily accommodate 15 people, and was in a great location. The host communicated with me throughout our stay and was helpful when we needed extra space for parking. We also loved that so many bedrooms and the main living space had spectacular ocean views. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this property to others.

Stop! Stop scrolling, stop looking for your vacation home – you’ve FOUND IT!! This home is everything you could ever want in a vacation experience. Just steps & I mean steps from your private beach access you are on the sand. It’s so close to the gorgeous water that when you look out the windows you feel like you’re on a cruise ship. Your unobstructed view provides stunning vistas. The pictures are true to the home. The kitchen is open & perfect for family gatherings as it opens to the living room. Plus the bedrooms are expansive & beautifully appointed. The diff. bed types allow for various sleeping arrangements. The views on the beach side of the house are breathtaking. There are also washers & dryers on the 2nd & 3rd floors. The heated pool is fabulous. We went in Oct and it was delightful to take a dip in the afternoon and not be struck by freezing cold water. The pool is a perfect size and the very short beach access ramp is right there. Have no fear about the little ones – there are gates. Then the hot tub! So great to take a soak and gaze out over the water. There are also several beach chairs, toys and other fun stuff provided. There is a additional large fridge in one of the garages. The elevator is such a great feature. Not only to bring in your luggage/groceries but in case you have some people with mobility challenges. This house was so wonderful that we never left. We enjoyed the beach, the stunning views, the pool, the hot tub, and the board games. All fantast

Fantastic location, right on the beach with gorgeous views through large windows. Great for watching the sunrise. Was very happy with the abundance of seating and extra large dining table which was perfect for meals and discussions during our retreat. Beds were comfortable and hearing the surf added soothing white noise to help with sleep! Jim was very responsive and helped with a special request that worked out perfectly. Highly recommend!
