Clean, comfortable with everything you need, parking for two cars. Fantastic location just steps from the beach, walking distance to cafes/pub and even a view of the Cockle Train as it goes past. Appreciate the linens and fabulous hot water service to shower off after the sandy beach. Would gladly stay again.

Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location couldn't be better—just steps from the beach, restaurants, shops, and all the essentials. We’ll definitely be returning. Thanks so much for having us!

Decent budget accommodation near the bay

Dolphin 10 is not fancy but perfectly adequate for a short stay when location matters. It's right adjacent to Horseshoe Bay and walking distance to several eateries - both in town and adjacent the bay. The unit is small but has all that is required.

Whale watching

A short notice weekend away and we were lucky to see Shamrock and her calf in the area. The property is a stones throw from the water and a great location to explore the area from.

Great apartment

This apartment is in a great location and had everything we needed (kitchen, stove, heaps of crockery/cutlery, a washing machine, 2 large couches, good sized TV etc). Only a few minutes' walk to the beach, general store, pub, train and bakery. Well stocked and very homely.

Beautiful one day, perfect the next

Our grandson has started to get interested in fishing. Spent a day pulling out mullet and salmon trout off jetty at Murray Mouth, competing with pelicans and seals. And a lovely day on Granite Island jetty. Very interesting history along the coast. Although we all 4 had different interests there was something for everyone. I’ve always loved Horseshoe Bay and now I know where to stay, we’ll hope to be back again. Thank you for welcoming us in

We were very impressed with the property, very comfortable. I loved the photos decorating the walls. Would make one suggestion, a grab rail in the shower would be an advantage.

Dolphin 10

Location & convenience of apartment block was spot on but were disappointed in our position. Prior notice that we were at the back would have been appreciated. We would also respectfully suggest that some of the utensils are replaced eg rusted oven trays and chipped glassware. at

Only 1 issue

As always we were happy with our stay. The only issue this time was the second bedroom. A previous tenant had vomited on the carpet tried to clean it but the summer heat made the odour extremely unpleasant !!

Fantastic location

Shirleys apartment is in the perfect location. You can walk out of the building to the beach. Its on 1st floor which was ok with us, just mentioning it so people are aware. Apartment is spotlessly clean. Very comfortable beds and very cosy place. Feels like home. Please be aware its a very old apartment. The kitchen cabinets drawers don't open easily. The exhaust fan in the bathroom does not work, the wire has been chopped off. I barely sat on a dining chair, realised it was wobbly, so got up in time to see, the legs are actually broken. I realised i could have really injured myself if i fell. It's an OHS issue. The grill in the bathroom was hanging, ready to fall off. The shower really smal, could barely fit in.
