    Dolphin Watch - A Side



    The Space:

    Dolphin Watch is a delightful home set on the beautiful banks of the St. Helena Sound. Everything you could need for a wonderful family vacation is here for your enjoyment. Kick up your feet and stay for a while! Forget about work and get ready to relax. This home was designed with guests in mind, with dual main suites, comfortable guest rooms, updated furniture that include a new dining table and bar stool, and all the little extras that will make your vacation unforgettable. A bright and poised interior will provide a lovely reminder to savor peace and quiet at the beach. Enjoy the convenient boardwalk to the beach and keep your eyes open for sea birds and dolphins playing in the surf. Chill out and enjoy the sweet Southern breeze on the ground-level patio equipped with plenty of seating, a spacious enclosed outdoor shower, and a grill for the family chef. Once the evening arrives, a well-equipped kitchen with new countertops and top-of-the-line appliances is available for cooking a Lowcountry feast.



    Three bedrooms have fantastic views of the famous Edisto sunsets, and you'll love the new, luxury, premium, pillow-top, hotel-grade mattresses. Free WiFi and seven TVs will keep each guest entertained in case a brief afternoon shower interrupts your sunny day on the beach or boat. Outside, the new beachside and streetside stairs will make it easy to access the water.



    If boating is on your schedule, the Marina at Edisto Beach is only a half-mile away for a convenient spot to launch the boat for a day of fishing or cruising. The Marina is also great for enjoying live music on the dock with a sunset view.



    Everyone will be delighted with the perfect setting for a memorable vacation!

Our Beach Week

Edisto nevers disappoints! We stayed in Dolphin Watch A this past week and had a wonderful time. Walking out the back door to the beach is great! The accommodations were very nice for our family group of 12.

Aptly named

Dolphin watch was an amazing place for us to enjoy the wildlife at Edisto. Each day we saw 20 or more dolphins and we were also blessed to see several horseshoe crabs. The shells are plentiful and the waves are calm so all can enjoy the water without issue. We highly recommend Dolphin Watch!

Excellent location! 2nd time staying here.

Excellent location! It's on the bay side, so the ocean waves are nice and calm. BEAUTIFUL view! We saw dolphins each day we were there. The kitchen was fully stocked including lots of pots and pans and service for 14 or 15 people. There were several games available to play. A chest of beach toys were available outside for the children.

A beach house with great potential and slept 13 comfortably

Declaimer: Our family wanted to give this property 3.8 stars but we can’t use decimals in our ratings, so please take note of that before reading the rest of the review. Our group of 13 had a wonderful beach vacation. This waterfront property is perfect for little kids who may have limited time on the beach before needing a nap or snack. We were able to spend a couple hours out in the waves before returning back for naps and home cooked meals. This house is wonderful for large parties of 10-12. There’s plenty of plates and utensils, kitchen items (a kitchen aid, in fact, and two coffee makers) and seating downstairs under the home for some simple, quiet outdoor time. The house could use a little work with fit and finish (and could have used a deeper clean before our visit), but it was still a great time regardless of the imperfections.

Excellent Layout for a large family

Our first time to Edisto and staying at Dolphin Watch as our original house got cancelled at the last minute. The Vacasa team was amazing to quickly get us a new place to stay when we were about an hour away from check-in. The house has mixed review. Pros Layout was amazing! Never could tell it was a duplex as it was so quiet & private. The kitchen was well stocked with all the appliances, tools & dishes needed. There was some beach toys, boogie boards and a beach chair at the house for use as well. Also loved having a house on the concrete covered parking area to spray the sand off. The house had numerous games, puzzles and numerous TV streaming options. Location was amazing with getting to see tons of Dolphins each day!! Cons Bugs, bugs, bugs. I am sure most were due to the marsh right off the backyard, but there were so many bugs it made being outside miserable. We also killed several bugs inside during our stay. The path with direct access to the beach is great, but it was overgrown in areas, so it felt like you were walking through a forest to get to the beach. The cleaning could have been a little better as I found a broken dirty razor in the master bathroom and lots of dead bugs behind the rocking chairs in the master bedroom.

Excellent accommodations and beautiful view

We had a group of ladies reconnecting for the weekend at Dolphin Watch. All of us are originally from the Lowcountry and went to high school together and enjoyed our time together at Edisto. Very cold weekend, but the sun did come out to greet us before we left!

Great location!

We’ve never stayed on the sound side but it was perfect! The house was good sized with a well stocked kitchen and clean. There’s some wear and tear items that could be fixed up (downstairs bathroom shower) but overall we enjoyed everything and would definitely go back.

It was a good week.

We really enjoyed ourselves. The place was adequate for our 10 adults - ages 19 - 83. We could have accommodated more, but it was nice to spread out. We could have used some more cookie sheets
