We really enjoyed our stay at short walk to the beach. The property is well set up for family and furry friends alike. The property was clean and well equipped. It has a lovely view of the ocean and we enjoyed cocktails and watching the sunset from the balcony. It really is a short walk to the beach. We also enjoyed the hot tub, which is a bonus. Linda was great to communicate with and was very accommodating! We will definitely stay here again !

We had a lovely few days at Dillon Beach! The house is small but fit our party well (2 adults and 2 kids). It was also great to be able to bring our pup along. I appreciated having a washer/dryer and the hot tub was a nice bonus!It’s a pretty short walk down to the store and the beach (though a bit steep for anyone with mobility issues).The host was easy to get in touch with and even let us check in a little early. Thanks for a great stay!

This was the second time we’ve stayed here and really enjoyed it. Incredible views, super quiet, and only a short walk to the general store and beach. Nicely furnished with all the essentials, too.

Perfect beach home away from home

This is the second time that we've stayed at this property and it has been consistently an excellent place to call home while visiting Dillon Beach. It is clean, organized, thoughtfully decorated, and there is a working hot tub AND laundry on-site. We will be returning soon and cannot wait!

My friend and I had a lovely time at this property. The upstairs large open space room was quite comfortable. I enjoyed the artwork with the ocean boating themes. The deck off of the upstairs room has quite a wonderful view, better than represented in the pictures.

Perfect Dillon Beach rental

Our family of four have stayed in this Dillon Beach rental four times and it just keeps getting better. There have been improvements to the property that have increased functionality and comfort, and you can't beat the location. The property manager is friendly and there were no issues accessing the property on time. Helpful hints for future renters: - Plan on packing your own food storage containers/ziploc bags. - Bring your own beach supplies (towels, toys, chairs, etc.). - This is a two-story property with no gate at the top of the stairs, which may be a concern for families with young children. Also, no bathtub. - Wonderful amenities for renting at the beach: laundry on-site, hot tub, and BBQ.
