Bring friends and family together at the DolphinInnOBX, a seven-bedroom beach rental cottage in Southern Shores, just south of Duck, NC. Our beach house enjoys horizon ocean views and is a short 1.5-block (four-minute) walk to the beach. Enjoy a private pool, hot tub, pirate ship playground, wrap-around decks, and a landscaped yard. The Dolphin Inn, featured in Money magazine, was recognized for its quintessential beach atmosphere. The Dolphin Inn is pet-friendly, joining many Outer Banks' beaches and businesses.
The Dolphin Inn offers premium amenities like a fully outfitted kitchen, family-friendly gear, a complimentary in-home entertainment package and a guests-only fitness club membership.

Meet the Host

Jorge
Owner
Though we love to travel the world, our best memories happen at the Dolphin Inn. We bought the house when our kids still believed in the magic of pirates and princesses. These days, they don't ask us to play make believe on the Dolphin Inn's pirate ship playground. Still, a little magic happens when we're at the Dolphin Inn. Maybe it's the salt air or the slow pace, but we seem to laugh more. The kids linger longer at the table. They go for walks with us. We find time to play games, tell stories and rewatch favorite movies. It's a special place to our family. Maybe that's why we love to share it with other families. We hope we can help your family make memories at the Dolphin Inn.
