We went on a family trip with 22 of us, we had an amazing time at the Dolphin Cove. The pool was perfect when we were tired of the beach. Perfect size for us, we will be back. Some of the queen beds seemed to be a full size and not a queen but it still comfortably slept couples.
The rental was perfect for our whole family of 14. Plenty of parking for 6vehicles and a golf cart. Easy access to the beach. Very clean and comfortable. A little problem wit some roaches but very minor. Would stay here again!
Comfortably slept 24 people. Common areas area large enough for all. Easy walk/drive to the beach. Private pool and a heated community pool around the corner.
I would definitely rent again.
This house was perfect for our company function. Lots of bedrooms with comfortable beds. Pool was awesome! Kitchen had everything we needed. There was a little issue with cleanliness and a couple of maintenance issues and all were corrected immediately. Very secure and quite neighborhood in the evenings. Would definitely stay here again!!
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!
The property was just as described. The house was a perfect fit for the size of our party, which consisted of adults, teenagers and a few younger children! The neighborhood was relatively quiet for the week of Spring Break. Check-in and check-out was easy and convenient. Property management was helpful and very responsive. Short drive to the beach and shopping! Overall amazing experience, would definitely rent this house again!!

We were so happy when a new management company opened in Port Aransas. We have been renting homes in Port Aransas for many years and finally have a management company that offers a higher level of service. The house was immaculate and ready when we arrived. Check in was a breeze and the office staff was great. Can't wait to come back.

Gulf side house had AC issues in all 4 bdrms. One window unit was placed in one bdrms, One box fan avail for entire house. Carriage house has spotty satellite TV & internet doesn't reach one room. The kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of cookware, etc. The common area was great! We made lots of memories. Plenty of room for all 19 of us.

Reviewer Comments:
Dolphin Cove has plenty of space for a large family; the bedrooms are varied (bunk beds and double beds, king beds), allowing for multiple family configurations. The house was fairly clean and well equipped. However, for nearly $2,000 per night, we expected something more than ordinary. The pool may look grand, but it was very small and only 4.5 feet deep. The text says "close to the water." Unfortunately I was not savvy enough to realize that meant driving to the beach would be necessary. Houses are jammed together in the development. On the plus side, when we had a problem with a stair rail, it was fixed expeditiously. The beds were comfortable. The fire pit was a nice touch.

We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach house! It was perfect for our large family — spacious, clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed.The layout was ideal, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out while still having great spaces to gather together for meals, games, and time by the pool. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bedrooms were comfortable and quiet.The location was fantastic — just a short walk to the beach, and close to shops and restaurants.We made some great memories here and would absolutely come back. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a fun and easy beach vacation!
We couldn’t be happier with this beautiful home! The house was so nice and fun for our group of families. The management was amazing!! Very friendly and helpful! We plan to book our next trip to Port A with this house again! Thank you!!
Very well equipped kitchen, 2 washers and dryers, private pool. Our family and friends group could visit or go to the beach or shopping. Great AC system too!
The house was spotless, and there were lots of traffic gathering places for our big group of family and friends. We cooked a lot with the kitchen and the outdoor grills, and it was fantastic.
This is the second time we have stayed here for Memorial Day Weekend, with a large group of families, and we really enjoyed it again. The layout is great, especially with the huge kitchen, fire pit, and pool! We will be back again.
