Dolphin Manor

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Enjoy the peace and quiet you’ve been longing for at this inviting ocean view house! The large and cozy back porch provides plenty of seating and is the perfect spot to kick back, relax and take in the hillside views. The large backyard is perfect for a volleyball or badminton game if guests bring their own net and ball. Gather in the living room area with your group and spend the afternoon eating snacks and playing board games. The fully-equipped kitchen and the dining area with enough seating for everyone are ideal to enjoy a tasty meal together before heading out to explore the large patio and surrounding area. Take a 5 minute walk to private Sunset Beach to revel in the beautiful rock formations. Bring a kite to fly, hunt for shells and sand dollars, build a fort out of driftwood, or just enjoy the stunning scenery of the Northern California Coast.

What’s nearby:
Just a five minute walk will take you to a private access gate and down the steps to Sunset Beach! Glass Beach is only eight and a half miles south and one of the most popular beaches nearby. It gets its name from the smooth colorful glass pieces that you can find there and that are illegal to remove! The Fort Bragg Coastal Trail is a 4.5 mile-long paved trail which offers incredible views of the ocean and is the perfect place to take a relaxing walk and enjoy the breeze. MacKerricher State Park offers plenty of outdoor activities including hiking, biking, and horseback riding, with facilities available for overnight camping. You can even book an excursion for coastal whale watching! North Coast Brewery is a renowned award-winning brewery and a local favorite you must visit. Dolphin Manor is located right by 10 mile river for kayak enthusiasts. A few miles north will get you to the Star Winery.

Relaxing Stay
It was very nice and relaxing. Enjoyed as everything described in listing. Easy drive to area attractions. Only negative was the back porch was very dirty. That said, we did mention it to the property manager and they offered to come and clean it. Would definitely stay again.

Great stay
We really enjoyed our stay at this home. The pictures are accurate as it's a bit dated but spacious and has everything we needed. We enjoyed walking in the quiet neighborhood and down to the private beach. We even had sunshine which was the icing on the cake. Didn't mind the 10 minute drive into Fort Bragg business area.

Great location and room for all
Dolphin Manor lived up to expectations. We have stayed in this neighborhood before, but needed a bigger place this time and Dolphin Manor was perfect. Lots of room to spread out, the beds were very comfortable, plenty of hot water for all 8 of us. The home IS slightly dated, the carpet had stains, but overall it was clean and comfortable for out stay.

Disappointed
Unfortunately, due to not one, but TWO deaths in my immediate family, we were unable to visit this property. I contacted customer service for both VRBO and Vacasa because the property was managed by both companies. They were both entirely useless in accommodating any type of resolution. There was no credit offered, no refund of the cleaning fee, etc. Even airlines make exceptions with a death certificate. I am extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with the lack of compassion shown by the property managers of this rental. I would understand with such a high end property that there would be a fee to cover daily costs but to keep the entirety of our payment is greedy beyond belief. I will not be recommending this property for future rentals nor would I recommend VRBO for the lack of options for similar situations.

House is dated
House itself is very clean! Very outdated. Looks like its fresh out of the 70's/80's. It says its walking distance from the beach which is true but it makes it sound like there is beach access from the property which there isnt. You would have to walk on the 2 lane road which isnt safe. There is no cell phone service even on their wifi. Theres only 1 tv in the house and it is hard to use. Even when we tried to log into our netflix, everything needs a passcode and i wasn't given one. Plus side is everything was clean, the beds were comfortable. The stove takes forever to cook on the oven took a long time just to pre heat. The listing says 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. There is one bathroom in the master bedroom, one in the hallway and a half bath in the cold garage. Almost all the cabinets have bicycle locks on it. It didnt feel very homey at all. Felt cold and uninviting.

Neat but dated, poor wifi
The property is neat and surfaces are clean, good kitchen set up. It's very quiet, easy access to the beach and easy to find. The outdated stove top, mildewy washer and poor wifi was a dissappointment. The third bathroom is in the garage, super funky and in cold weather would be a problem to use. Would not stay there again unless the appliances are updated and wifi issue are resolved.

This is a beautiful , well maintained and well appointed property. We loved eating on the deck where we were keeping company with the nesting swallows. Wildlife viewing in the yard’s large meadow included birds , deer, and a fox. The quiet location near Seaside Beach was great for our 3 generation family.

Very nice house in a very nice location. We enjoyed beach combing, long walks, watching the pelicans and. listening to the surf at night. Has a well equipped kitchen, but had trouble with oven on our last day. It was late so we did not bother to contact property manager.

Great location
Our group of two small families really enjoyed our stay at this house. The highlight was the location and private beach. I’m not sure if it’s listed on the online page, but there are a lot of stairs getting down to the beach. It worked great for our group but anyone with mobility issues might need to drive to another beach. The house was as described with a well stocked kitchen. We did have Internet connection issues while we were there. The management was very quick in replying to us about it. There were quite a few dead bugs throughout the house and we let management know to address that with their house cleaners before the next renters stay there.

Relaxed in quiet small neighborhood. Home was comfortable for 6 ( 4 adults 2 kids). Access to a remarkable beach with sand dollars. We experienced a mix up with early access, it was managed timely and professionally. Nice to have a shower in the garage for beach cleanup.
