Loved it!

We love this location! It is removed from the crowds and craziness of Myrtle, yet a short ride to every place we wanted to go. The condo was beautiful and immaculate. The view of the sunrise every morning from the balcony was amazing. The beach was clean and not too crowded and we loved walking to the pier at night for some live music

Vacation for baseball tournament

Clean, lovely condo overlooking the ocean. We stayed for the week during a baseball tournament. Location was close to all amenities we needed, yet not in the middle of the party vibe that is more prominent in Myrtle Beach. Condo owner was very prompt and thorough with any correspondence.

Wonderful Vacation

We enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Cove immensely! The condo is bright and very comfortable. We loved the ocean front location close to the pier and the view was unbeatable. It as very nice to have the use of the beach chairs, toys and umbrellas. The unit had everything we needed and the entry porch was very handy as a place to leave sandy shoes and towels before going inside. I would highly recommend!!

Good family vacation

Great location. The beach is beautiful, not crowded, and very family friendly. The pool at the apartment is nice, it provides a good break from the sand at the beach. The apartment main living area is nice and most of the bedrooms are good. The master bedroom and bathroom had an unsettling smell that was disappointing and lessened our enjoyment during our stay. Owners are friendly and was easy to get a hold of with either email or phone.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 March 2020
We are glad you enjoyed your stay. This is the first we have heard of a smell and we are sorry to hear about it. As you mentioned, we are easily reachable by phone or email, so if we would have known we would have sent our crew in that day to have any problem taken care of. Our guests' satisfaction is our top priorty and we are always a phone call away. Cheers, Lelia & Nick

GREAT BEACH WEEK

Excellent host, clean and comfortable condo unit, over looks beach and pool, just north of the pier. As advertised. When the sun got to much on the beach, the pool started to go in-shade by midafternoon. This is an 18 unit condo building with it's own beach access so the beach area was not crowded like the beaches in front of high rise condos. A real plus.
