About this property

After a 7 month remodel the Dolphin House Huntington Beach opened on November 1, 2016. To take the virtual tour, just Google "Huntington Beach Dolphin House" and judge for yourself. The 300MB download speed WIFI powers all your devices and covers the entire property. Free Parking next to property. We positioned 3 flat screen "Smart TV's" where the family could gather in the Dolphin Room and watch Netflix on the 75' UHD screen with surround sound, or scatter to view their preferred programs. The cooks in the clan will not be lacking in the kitchen with an assortment of pots and pans, dishes, wine glasses, coffee maker, cutlery and many staples already stocked. And the if you prefer, there is a very nice gas barbecue in the back yard. The washer and dryer are new and we already have the detergent. Also in the garage the kids will find an air hockey table and a nice assortment of bikes. The adults may prefer to play a few rounds on the 3 hole putting green. Parking at the Dolphin House is free and easy. 10 steps behind the rear gate is a cul de sac that is very safe, there is no through traffic and is empty most of the time or you could also park in front of the garage door. So I invite you to take the virtual tour of the Dolphin House and let me know if you have any questions.

Great Family Getaway

The property was great. The pictures showed it being very nice, but it was much nicer than that. The interior decorations were very well thought out and made the ambience very comfortable and relaxing. The bathrooms were modern. It was great for families have boogie boards, beach chairs and bicycles. James was very attentive and responsive to any questions. Highly recommended and I have already done so with friends

Nice getaway

We stayed four days at the Dolphin House and really enjoyed the outdoor patios and putting green. The picnic table could use a good sanding and fresh coat of paint. Plenty of beach toys, an ice chest, an umbrella and chairs. The owner, James, was very quick to respond to an issue we had when we first arrived. Great customer service.

Great Space with fun Amenities

The property is in a great location with a short bike trip to the beach. Plenty of space on the inside of the property with the skylights providing great natural lighting throughout the day. The outdoor space is great as well with the put put green being used often during our stay.

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely place! James was very responsive and easy to work with! The artistry of the house is beautiful! The house is well equipped/stocked, even have bikes for us! The location is a bit away from the beach but, it is likely a good thing as it is quieter!

Conveniently located house

We rented this house on our trip to South California and it was a great experience. House is close to Huntington Beach, and from there we went each day to different beach destinations to explore several of them. House itself is located in quiet neighborhood and has few of its own things to offer - bikes, boogie boards, wetsuits, and air hockey/pool table, complimented by small mini golf! We had a blast entertaining at night after being away from it during a day. Host, James, was very responsive to our requests, I highly recommend it for larger families looking for inexpensive vacation!

Thoughtful owner, loved it!

The house itself was very tastefully decorated inside as well as the detail of decor outside. What spoke to us was the items the owner had there for us to borrow such as bikes, surf boards, wet suits,pool table,beach toys and chairs ext. Really was a personal touch. The jacuzzi tub was a hit with all of us. The security cams were different for us but understandable. Do not recommend if you have toddlers or younger but our teens and 8yr old loved it. We rode bikes to the beach as a family which was fun. Deff recommend this property!

James was great. He responded quickly to questions and provided a great place to stay. The location was great, and we had plenty of space for our family of 5. It was lots of fun to play pool and air hockey, and we had everything we needed there with a grocery store just around the corner. I definitely recommend this place.

Dolphin House is five star!

Great place to hang your hat while in Huntington Beach! The kitchen had everything we needed and the backyard was wonderful for relaxing. The beds were very comfortable. Our only regret is that we were so busy with family events that we didn't have time to use all the available 'toys' - except the putting green. We will be back for sure someday! Thank you, James, for making our visit so smooth, from start to finish.

The house is very comfortable and convenient to the beach and nightlife. James has a storage area full of bikes and beach equipment and we immersed ourselves in all of it. I will be back at the dolphin house and I think everyone should stay at this house!!!!

Dolphin House

House was just as described in listing. Super cool beach vibe and perfect place to hang out by the beach. Fully stocked with great amenities including beach toys, bikes, full putting green, all sorts of kitchen amenities, comfy beds and great beach decorating/ murals. Only two blocks to beach and grocery stores, and two different comfortable indoor seating areas with plenty of room. James was very easy to deal with and was super understanding with our group, that needed a little help understanding that we had neighbors close by that had little kids and deserved quiet time which required to take our group inside after 10pm at night. Overall, I would highly recommend the Dolphin house and want to thank James again for his help and the way he dealt with our "shortcomings".
