What a wonderful space! Plenty of room for 6 adults, steps from the beach. Had all the beach gear we could possibly need including each chairs, boogie boards, umbrellas and a wagon to carry it all. Inside was clean and spacious and kitchen had all necessary cooking supplies. Great gas stove! Host was quick to respond to any questions we had.

Great House

We have been coming to LBI for more than 25 years and the house is perfect for us. It is so well equipped with a second refrigerator, beach chairs and umbrellas etc. and is pristine. The den with outside covered deck is really nice and extremely helpful in the event it happens to rain. The house is well located on the ocean side of the Boulevard and only a few houses from the ocean. Thom is very responsive for any needs one may have,

We’ll be back!

This is an A1 rental. The home is exactly as described and well appointed with anything you could possibly need. It’s perfectly located in the heart of Harvey Cedars, away from the chaos of South Island. My family and friends were very comfortable in this bright, thoughtful home which isn’t always the case w rentals. The kitchen has a big island which became the social hub. The home is well laid out w 3 bedrooms below and the master on the top floor along w the kitchen and public rooms. I personally loved the roof deck best. The only semi shortcoming has nothing to do w the home at all. The beach is at its narrowest point on the island. Since we had glorious weather, the beaches were crowded and we definitely felt the struggle for real estate. Other than that, it was a perfect stay. Thom is a proactive easy going host who made everything seamless for me. Next summer cant come quickly enough.

Great friends trip!

We can't say enough great things about our stay at this property. Thomas and Christine were wonderful to work with from booking to preparing for our trip and everything in between. The house had plenty of rooms for our group of 6 (including a child) - lots of beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, TV's, dining space and more. The location is close to the beach, restaurants, markets and endless ice cream spots. We look forward to coming back! Thank you for an amazing LBI vacation,

Awesome Home

This home was very clean and comfortable for my family. The location is very convenient to the beach, downtown H.C. And the north end of the island. Kitchen well equipped, beds very comfortable, sunset views from roof deck wonderful. The owners are very responsive though we didn’t run into any issues during our stay. Will rent again.

Wonderful shore house

Our stay on Long Beach Island was wonderful. The beach and ocean were perfect. The house is spacious, well organized and clean. Two bedrooms had walk in closets which were perfect for a baby to sleep in a pack and play. Our host had lots of beach chairs, umbrellas available, and beach toys for the kids. A buggy to transport all the “stuff” was available as well. Thank you, Thom.

Everything from the pictures, description, location and instructions provided were perfect in making the week most enjoyable for our family.

The home was beautifully maintained, extremely well equipped, as well as spacious and comfortable. The location was very convenient, as well as quiet.

House is immaculate

this was our second time renting this house for a week. Was very comfortable for two families with kids. The owners were always attentive and available for any of our questions. So close to the beautiful beach. And house is kept in great condition. Would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful almost new and feels like home

The place has a great reverse living layout, was impeccable in every detail. We were easily able to move in for the week. It comfortably accommodated six adults and two children. Although it is on the main street, we are able to walk behind the house to the lane to get to the beautiful beach. The place was clean and feels new. The kitchen had everything we needed. It has a lot of stairs but worth the climb to the kitchen/living area. The traffic noise in three bedrooms was the only adjustment, but after the weekend it was minimal. Can park five cars in front, and if need be, a garage space is available.

Dolphin Watch

Stayed 2 weeks. House was everything we could have asked for. Plus we didn't have to worry about bringing beach chairs or umbrellas as there were plenty already there. There were also 2 bikes which allowed us to get in some exercise. Plentry of room and beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms. Will definitely return. Short walk on quiet street to the beach which was 4 houses behind us. Clean beaches with lifeguards at end of street. Beaches were not crowded. Owners take pride in house and it shows. AC worked great during hottest days.

Great place to vacation with the family

The owners are super nice people and take great pride and care in their home, and make you feel at home. Dolphin Watch is a modern, clean, updated comfortable house with good air conditioning, reliable internet and several cable TVs in the house. The property is very well stocked - from a complete kitchen to many beach chairs and beach toys. Good grill on a great deck for outside eating (and a separate solid plastic picnic table for the little ones) and a rooftop deck for watching the bay and sunset. Easy, short walk to the beach on the ocean side. Great outdoor shower when you return from the beach. A very short walk across the road to nightly magnificent sunsets on the bay. For a bicycling enthusiast, you go right from the garage to miles of flat roads (less than 5 miles to the lighthouse). We would definitely love to come back and our children and grandchildren feel the same way.

Summer Time Fun!

Just finished a family vacation for 10 at Dolphin Watch. It was our first time staying on LBI and it worked out really well--even the weather was fantastic. The house is clean, roomy, well stocked with kitchen necessities, bikes, beach chairs, umbrellas, movies and a ping pong table in the garage. As bikers, we were able to ride to the lighthouse and back(under 10 miles) in the morning and be on the clean, beautiful beach in the afternoon. Harvey Cedars is a great location-a little bit away from the hustle and bustle of the more commercial areas. This is definitely a place to revisit.

Beach Lovers Paradise!

This was our first vacation to LBI and our first experience with VRBO. Both were fantastic!! The owners of this property are wonderful caring people who obviously want their guests to enjoy the property as if it were their own. They have thought of everything!! The kitchen is fully stocked as well as beach toys and beach equipment. We all enjoyed the outdoor shower, sunsets on the deck, BBQ'ing, cooking and drinking, beach days, cycling Long beach Blvd, walks to town. You name it we did it and the location of this property was perfect for it all!! We were a group of 10 with the youngest being an 18 month old. There was even a pack-n-play for her! We all fit very comfortable. We did not feel cramped for space and the 5 kids had a blast. Plenty of things in the house to keep them busy and the Ping Pong table was a big hit! If you like comfort and a clean modern house, Dolphin Watch would be a great place to vacation. We will be back next year for sure!!

Great time!

We have spent 3 years at LBI for our family vacations. This year we chose Dolphin Watch and had such a nice time. It fronts a busy road, but we kept the front door locked so the little people wouldn't use it. And that worked out fine, because the owner's neighbors behind Dolphin House let renters get to the beach by cutting through their yards. Traffic noise wasn't a problem for us , we always had music playing by day and had sound machines on overnight. Shirley and Darryl were very helpful with any questions we had. We had room for our 11 family members . My daughters brought PackNPlays and a double sized air bag. Everybody was comfortable. The master bedroom and bath is lovely. The other bedrooms are great as well. The kitchen is bright and open and equipped with anything we needed. We grilled on the outside deck often . As I said, we cut through neighbors yard to get the the beach, which is just a short walk away. The beach is beautiful. The kids really enjoyed playing in the sand together. The water was chilly but didn't stop many of us from swimming. You can cross the road to walk to the bay but we didn't do that much as we were really enjoying the beach on "our" side. Everyone left happy that we chose Dolphin House. LBI is such a great, family oriented place. It was a wonderful vacation .
