Oceanfront, ideal for a romantic getaway. Walk to beach.

We are a Super Host and Guest Favorite on the other, bigger vacation rental site. Our repeat guests often book up our calendar, so we haven't had many guests from VRBO yet. So, if you have any questions, just ask; I'll be happy to answer right away!
Here's more about The Dolphin House: Fall asleep to the sound of the waves and wake up to watch for dolphins, sea otters, and whales. Take the path to a secluded beach or a scenic 10-minute drive to Carmel restaurants or Big Sur hiking. Just 8 miles away are Pebble Beach and Monterey. Our home is fully appointed with natural wood, stone and glass , designer furniture, and a chef-equipped kitchen. All sheets are 800 or 600-thread count 100% sustainable cotton. All amenities are natural and earth-friendly.
