    Great bang for your buck. Older hotel but not bad. Very close to everything and can walk to most if you don't mind walking.

    About 75 yards from the beach. Rooms are clean and functional. You're not on Main Street but that's why you go to the Beach isn't it? We've been coming to the Dolphin Lane motel every couple of years since 2006...you can drive and get anywhere in about 25-30 minutes

    I definitely recommend this place!! It's cozy, quiet, and walking distance to everything you could want to do. I LOVE this place and we're already talking about our next trip here. The room was clean, cold AC, and lovely staff.

    Nothing like a morning coffee with the ocean breeze blowing in your hair. We brought everything, even a crockpot! There are several size rooms, ours is just the standard ..so little fridge. It could use a little spiffing up, that’s for sure! Falling asleep with the door open listening to the ocean tho 🌴 Worth It Totally!!!!
