Great spot during off season.
Parking was a liitle tight, as far as availability & size of parking space. Loved the room. Although not on beach, it was only a short walk away. Lived the kitchen in the room. It definitely came in handy.

What we’d check for you here

That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.

Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.

Questions about Dolphin Inn

What time is check-in and check-out at Dolphin Inn?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Dolphin Inn allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Dolphin Inn?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does Dolphin Inn have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Does Dolphin Inn have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Dolphin Inn have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Dolphin Inn?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
