About this property

Spectacular oceanfront at quiet end of boardwalk at Rudee Inlet SEE SPECIALS.

LAST MINUTE DISCOUNT FOR DATES LESS THAN 15 DAYS IN ADVANCE is 30% and 16 to 30 days in advance DISCOUNT IS 20%.

The property is known as Dolphin Run Condos. My unit has been upgraded with new stainless steel ceramic top stove, granite top counters, a new king bed in the master bedroom and fresh painting with cheery ocean colors. You can sit on the balcony and watch the ocean waves and the boats going out and returning from the marina VIA Rudee's Inlet. At times you may see the dolphins running! For those who like fishing, you can fish right off the pier in Rudee's Inlet or go across the street and arrange a deep sea fishing expedition. While most will want to enjoy the beach, the property has an indoor pool that is kept at 84 degs. year round. The lobby is large and with an expansive view of the beach. Please view all the pictures. See #'s 35 and 36 of the Kiddie Park out front on the beach.

We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect, close to the ocean, local attractions, and easy to get around. Our family loved being able to walk right out to the beach and pier. The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of space for the whole family to relax after long beach days, and the kitchen made meals super convenient.The host was responsive and helpful, which made check-in and our entire stay stress-free. This trip gave us great memories, and we would absolutely stay here again!

We did not have adequate hot water in the bathroom shower and the water pressure is terrible in both sink and shower nearest the entrance to th unit.The television did not work to watch the Super Bowl in our unit. The TvS are too old so we had to watch the Super Bowl in the lobby which was very cold despite turning the heater up. The pool Is closed for renovations which was not mentioned on vrbo or by the owner. This pool was the primary reason I chose the facility for a winter get away. There were roaches in the dishwasher this morning. The elevator 1 was not working and the second one was making loud noises every time it was used. The directions for entrance coming from email and text is confusing. And we spent 899 dollars for a 3 day stay in a sub par facility. Also 1 towel per guest is not enough for a 3 days stay. The ocean very was nice.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Feb 2026
16 Feb 26 Gail: Firstly , I am sorry that you did not have a good experience in my condo. 1. Water pressure: This is the first time I have had a complaint about the water. It is VA Beach City water. There could have been a temporary lack of pressure due to the severe weather. 2. TV's. The problem is not with the TV"s but with Cox Cable and Internet. Our condo association has just recently signed on with Verizon Fios for both internet and cable. Notwithstanding that your complaint about the TV's is the first, I have purchased 3 Samsung 65" smart TV's which will be installed this weekend. 3. Pool closure. I apologize about not advising you about the pool work. I should have. 4. Roaches in the Dishwasher. This is most surprising as this has not been a problem and the unit is pest treated periodically. 5. I will check with the condo association about the elevator problems. They were completely rebuilt about 2 years ago with no complaints since. 6. Glad you were able to watch the Super Bowl in the lobby. I will let the condo board know about your complaint of the lobby being cold. We did have very severe cold weather. Not sure what the problem was and will say, I have never had a complaint about the lobby being too cold or too hot. Very sorry about that. Again very sorry for the problems you had. Howard

Overall the property was nice. Unfortunately the kitchen had ants in the dishwasher and some roaches. The Master bath also had roaches. The wifi info in the condo was incorrect and there was no info on the amenities of the facility. Also, the pool was closed when we were there.

Not sure why the pool was closed. I do know there is some planned upgrades on the pool but they should have let the owners know when those upgrades are to occur. Thanks for your overall rating under the circumstances. Howard PS I recently had the unit professionally treated for pests and have signed up for recommended quarterly service.
