Annual Birthday Beach Bash Bonanza

Overall
It's always challenging to find a house to fit our large family (including 9 Grandkids). Dolphin Cove was spacious enough for each family to have their bedrooms/bathrooms with plenty of common space as well! The fenced in pool added much appreciated security, and the fire pit was an unexpected bonus! We may have found the perfect spot for our Annual Birthday Beach Bash!
Manager's Response
Mary, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic 5 star review about your recent stay with us! We are so happy you found a perfect spot for your annual birthday beach bash and we hope to see you come back! Your feedback motivates our team here at New Wave Vacation Rentals to continually strive for excellence for our guests!!!!!

This house is such a beach vibe, the whole atmosphere is amazing! We loved the shared patio it was perfect for not feeling like you’re stuck inside yet not being in the hot sun. It’s close to the beach! The separate rooms made it not feel so crowded. The kitchen came fully equipped. Overall our stay was very enjoyable and we would most definitely rent again

Dolphin Cove was the perfect beach house for our July 2023 family reunion. The house had a big kitchen and plenty of seating which helped helped during preparation and serving. All the kids and adults enjoyed the day at the beach and the evenings swimming in our own private pool. Some played ping pong in the garage. The layout was perfect and housed 18 of us comfortably. We’ll definitely be back.

My wife & I and a close group of friends decided to celebrate hers and another’s 40th birthdays in Port A where we’d all spent plenty of weekends over the years together. Bridget was always very quick to reply to my chats through the VBRO app. On our first evening, one of the rooms above the garage was not cooling. After hours maintenance was quick to come out and bring a portable window unit to get us through the night. The very next day, it was fixed and the room was much more comfortable for our guests in that room. The stay was amazing and the house was just the right touch to top it all off.
Manager's Response
Thank you for providing such a kind review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and that our maintenance team was able to help make it more comfortable. We hope you visit again soon!

The house is really well set up for privacy for multiple families. Plenty of bathrooms and little pods of bedrooms. Only downside is it may be a tight fit for the 8 parking spots listed. I think 5-6 may be the practical limit.

We had 4 different families staying together and the design of the home was perfect! The bedroom/bathroom layout suited everyone. The kitchen and dining room are the best feature of the home! We were all able to make meals & eat together In a spacious environment. We absolutely loved the private pool! We were able to swim and cool off in the evenings. There were a few minor things in the kitchen that needed updated (rugs) and the cabinets/drawers needed reorganized. Only one other thing—maybe some command hooks in the 2 twin bedroom upstairs—there was really no dresser/closet or space to put up clothes.

Thanks so much for your input! We really appreciate it. You can't beat this house for large groups! It is one of a kind.

The property managers were very responsive. We found the mattresses to be comfy as well. There were a few minor repairs needed, but it didn't affect our stay at all. We already want to come back!
