“Dolphin Cove Inn: Spectacular setting, loaded with charm”

My wife and I stayed at this property 2/23-3/1, 2008. We were enchanted by the total effect of the gorgeous landscaping, the ingenuity of how all the steps and rooms fit perfectly into a challenging hillside, the sweeping views of Manzanillo Bay. Our cheerful white-painted room was very tastefully furnished, and its best feature was its substantial balcony, arrayed with four chairs, a couple of recliner lounges, and a table; so conducive to sipping morning coffee, or enjoying an incomparable view of the ocean. Nights were beautiful: its hard to beat a pounding surf for getting lulled to sleep, in my opinion!
The bougainvilleas and other plants and flowers made for outstanding landscaping. My wife and I considered climbing the many steps everyday a mini-workout, a way to burn up some calories! The Inn's restaurant, Paradise, offered excellent food and very friendly service. We were given a free breakfast each day, a very nice hotel amenity.
As great as it was to hang out in this environment, we found it refreshing to visit other area beaches, especially Miramar with its huge waves and reasonable prices on food and cervesas. We caught the local bus right in front of the Inn office, and that was a convenient way to get to all the local destinations.
Staff here was helpful and courteous. We'd return to this gem of a hotel in a heartbeat. Excellent value, excellent atmosphere.

Dolphin Cove Inn is a beautiful hotel on the Pacific Coast, Mexico. We had such a nice one-week stay in November 2007, it was great and we loved every minute of it! It has a beach, a great pool and a really nice restaurant. The service is splendid!! The rooms are cosy and fresh. They all have nice viewes over the ocean and every room have a furnished balcony.

“A great place to stay”

My husband and I just got back from our second stay at Dolphin Cove Inn in 3 years. It was wonderful ... lovely, low key, and very relaxing. The setting is lush and gorgeous and the views from the rooms and the restaurant are stunning. We noticed great improvements in the restaurant and chose to eat in on a number of occasions. The service was great and the food was pretty good too. We were also impressed with Edgar, the concierge, who was helpful on numerous occasions. My only suggestion is to provide umbrellas on the balcony. It gets pretty hot and sunny during the day! This is a great place to stay for people who don't enjoy being around hordes of tourists or staying in cookie cutter resorts. We definitely will be back!

“Loved Dolphin Cove Inn!! Want to go back!!!!”

We had a fabulous 4 days at Dolphin Cove Inn. Only problem was that it was not long enough. A great long weekend from Los Angeles but I could have stayed alot longer. We loved the smaller inn style and friendliness (and price!!) but it had all the amenities we needed. The open restaurant next to the pool and overlooking the water was so convenient and relaxing for all our meals. We took a taxi into town to get a change of scenery one night for dinner ,had lunch at one of the adjacent properties one day and used their tennis courts, other than that we were perfectly content to hang out at the pool overlooking the water at DCI, take walks on the waterside walkway and to sip margaritas at sunset. The intimacy and privacy of Dolphin Cove Inn was just what we wanted and needed. We especially liked having access to local amenities but loved not feeling like we were with throngs of tourists and conventions at such bigger properties. Have recommended this hotel to a number of people!

“Loved it!”

Dolphin Cove Inn

Feb 12, 2008

We are regular visitors to the Dolphin Cove Inn. The rooms offer all that you need to make for an easy self-catering holiday. The resort has a wonderful pool, restaurant and easy access to the luxurious facilities of Las Hadas next door. Our daughter loves to snorkle with her dad off the beach of the resort. This year they even found a buried pirate ship! (using their great imaginations!) The Dolphin Cove Inn is lovely -- the sunsets from the balconies are truly unbeatable. We love it!
