About this property

Dolphin Delight

Dolphin Delight is a fabulous family friendly Semi-Oceanfront 5 Bedroom 4.5 Bath home with Private Pool and Spa. It is located only steps from a great beach and in the heart of Avon. Enjoy ocean views from either of the two decks facing the ocean and watch over the pool and volleyball court from the two decks facing the sound side of the island.

Your family will not want to leave this wonderful second lot back home in Avon. Dolphin Delight will provide the perfect location to get away from it all. Covered parking under the house and a convenient dry entry that opens to the first level will make move-in a breeze.

The four bedrooms on the first level make for a peaceful retreat. Each bedroom on this level has a 32” flat-screen TV with a DVD player. Two queen master suites on this level offer direct access to a covered deck overlooking the pool and volleyball court. The third queen bedroom has a door into a semi-private bathroom. The fourth bedroom has a bunk set and a single bed with a trundle. These two bedrooms have direct access to a covered deck with ocean views. The laundry is also on this level.
On the top level, vaulted ceilings and large windows provide abundant natural light and offer ocean views. Watch a movie on the 55” flat-screen TV with an Internet-capable Blu-Ray DVD player in the living room. The sunny kitchen with breakfast bar is adjacent to the dining area, which has easy access to the spacious ocean-facing sundeck. The sun/game room includes a three-in-one bumper-pool table that can be used as a dining table, poker table or bumper pool table. From here there is also direct access out to the top deck overlooking the pool area, where there is a seating group under a covered portion and a picnic table for an outdoor eating option. Off the living area is a warm and inviting master bedroom with a king-size bed, 32" TV, and a DVD player. This master also has direct access to the rear sundeck facing west. A half bathroom providing common access completes this level.

The private pool and hot tub are located on the sound-side of the house, with ample deck space and lounges for catching the sun rays or watching the children play. Grill your meals on either the gas grill located on the pool deck or at the charcoal grill in front of the house. Dolphin Delight’s fantastic location provides easy access to popular shopping, restaurants, water sports rental shops, and fishing/bait and tackle, as well as favorite ice cream shops.

There is convenient beach access one house south or two houses north of Dolphin Delight where you will find a wonderful sandy beach and an outdoor shower will be waiting to freshen you up for the next round of fun. Store your gear in the under-house lockable storage room. Clean your catch of the day at the fish cleaning table while your kids play basketball out front or volleyball out back.

Prepare for good times during day and night at Dolphin Delight.

Dolphin Delight
The house was perfect. Very clean, spacious, and right next to the public beach access path. The pool and hot tub were both very clean. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great, but we stayed busy in and around the house and utilized the hot tub on the chilly nights! 10/10 would recommend!

Ocean Views Bliss
My family ranging from 3 years old to well...retired, enjoyed a wonderful stay at Dolphin Delight! This house had everything! I brought things like extra hand soap and muffin tins, but all was provided. There are several large serving trays for charcuterie by the pool or large dinners, and service for at least 8. I was pleasantly surprised! We stayed while a hurricane was offshore. It was wonderful to have the pool, especially in the back of the house, for windy days. The over wash from the ocean really came up a couple of the days. The folks across the street (Ocean Side houses) had trouble parking their cars out of the water and loading unload in knee deep water. We were high and dry at Dolphin Delight! We also received texts from Jeff to alert us to the possibility of high water and rip currents. Linens provided were also already on the beds at arrival. Such a nice touch after a long road trip. This property exceeded expectations, and I would highly recommend!

Dolphin DELIGHTFUL!
We had a fantastic week at Dolphin Delight. We were immediately happy with our choice when we opened the doors. It was immaculately clean and the beach was just a short walk away (viewable from the spacious decks). Jeff was very easy to get ahold of. We thought we had an issue and contacted him and he got right back to us (there was not an issue). We will be back for sure!

We fell in love with Avon and Hatteras Island, and decided to purchase Dolphin Delight to have a special place to spend our vacations. We had the home in a rental program under a local real estate company and now have taken over managing the property. Our hope is that you fall in love with this unique beach town and Dolphin Delight!
