Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted you had a perfect stay and appreciated the special touches. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back again!
Great house with great views! We loved the huge, open, well-stocked kitchen. The bathrooms could use a little updating and we could have used a couple of more blankets upstairs but, other than that, everything was fine! The host, Wine Country to Coast, was so helpful during our stay, and their cleaning crew even found my Dad's hearing aid after we had looked everywhere for it! Wine Country to Coast called me and mailed it to us right away! Thanks again for everything!
Amber, we are very happy you enjoyed your stay and we hope to host you again in the future.
have a great day

My family gathered for our matriarch's 80th birthday. The house was spacious and comfortable, the view stunning. There was plenty of room to gather in the living room, cook big meals, play and sleep. The hosting agency were very kind, responsive and helpful before and during our stay. Highly recommended

Lodging was as advertised.A nice addition was the ease of check in with a clean and welcoming setting. There was music playing, the house was warm, and the light was on.

We love hearing that you enjoyed your stay! We hope to host you again!
The view was amazing! This was a great house for my husband and me, our three adult children and one grandchild. There was plenty of room, nice activities (ping pong and hot tub), and you can walk to the beach! I highly recommend this house. Host was very responsive when we couldn’t find sheets for couch bed

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re so glad the home was a great fit for your family and that you were able to enjoy the views, amenities, and easy walk to the beach. It’s great to hear everyone had plenty of space and fun with the ping pong and hot tub!
We’d love to host you and your family again!
The view is spectacular. The house is clean and comfy. The kitchen is nicely outfitted.The only drawback is that the driveway is so steep that it takes a strategic approach not to scrape the car.

We were very happy with our stay at Whale Watch. We shared the home with another family, and it was perfectly suited for that setup. The kids especially enjoyed the game room, which included ping pong, air hockey, and darts. The upstairs common space was spacious, bright, and very clean. The rental company also left welcome snacks for us, which was an unexpected and appreciated touch. Overall, this home exceeded our expectations, especially when it came to cleanliness and comfort.

The views are magnificent from almost every room upstairs. It was very windy while we were there, so there was little beach time and the views made all the difference. Staff (Stace and Amanda) were great and check in was easy and we were fully aware of the driveway entrance before we arrived, so that was all good. The ambience was great and the beds were comfortable. We had hoped for a better game room - especially because we really couldn’t go to the beach. Game room was in the garage and ping pong was only playable with the garage door closed to avoid balls getting lost down the driveway - which was kind of claustrophobic. Overall, we had a great time and would rent Whale Watch again.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the magnificent views, comfortable beds, and overall ambience of Whale Watch. Even with the windy weather keeping you off the beach, we’re glad the scenery still made your stay special.
We also really appreciate your kind words about the team!
Thank you as well for the honest feedback regarding the game room. We understand how important indoor entertainment can be when the weather doesn’t cooperate, and we appreciate you sharing your experience with the ping pong setup in the garage. Feedback like this is incredibly helpful as we continue looking for ways to improve the guest experience. We’d love to host you again in the future and hope next time you’ll get some calmer beach weather too!
Host was very welcoming; all instructions were clear and thorough.

Hello, Glad you had a great stay! We look forward hosting you again. Sorry you had to move cars. It is stated everywhere (in all paperwork, on the website, in the house) that 4 cars is max in all of Dillon Beach. It is an HOA rule that we adhere to.
Thanks,

The view is unbeatable. There was plenty of space for our family, and the hot tub was a great addition! We also really enjoyed the deer in the neighborhood, the quiet community, and the country roads to travel on. We hope to return to this house again one day! I’m so glad we chose this home to stay in. The view surpassed our expectations. We highly recommend!
