About this property

The Time of Your Life Awaits at Dolphin Time-Oceanfront

There's nothing quite as captivating as an ocean view, and at "Dolphin Time," you'll discover that and so much more! This expansive four-bedroom, four-bathroom corner unit is located in the exclusive and private Sanctuary at False Cape condominium complex, nestled in the charming Sandbridge Beach community. It's truly a place where your beach vacation dreams come to life.

"Dolphin Time" offers an open and expansive floor plan, providing ample one-level living space. You'll find rich cherry wood flooring, detailed custom cabinetry, and a cozy built-in fireplace, perfect for reading, playing board games, or simply catching up on the day's events. The gourmet kitchen, ideal for the family chef, is accented with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. After a long day at the beach or shopping, the gentle lapping of the waves will lull you into a deep slumber. However, we highly recommend not missing the spectacular sunrises that Sandbridge is known for—this is beach living at its best!

The wrap-around balcony is perfect for enjoying your first cup of coffee in the morning or unwinding with cocktails after a long day of shell seeking.

While maintaining privacy, Sandbridge is conveniently located within a short distance to major shopping areas, tourist attractions, restaurants, and the famed Virginia Beach boardwalk. The Sanctuary complex itself boasts three pools, two gyms, and two libraries. The beautifully landscaped courtyards offer grill stations and poolside teakwood picnic tables, ideal for outdoor BBQs. At "Dolphin Time," you're sure to make memories that will last a lifetime.

Nice Beach front condo

I had to pick up keys offsite at a real estate office. Everything was great except the check in. I got there just in time before the real estate office closed . They had no package with keys ready for me. I was told If I arrived after closing the package would be in a locked locker outside the door. Nothing was in there either. The gal at the office finally figured out who I was and I got the keys etc. could have been a major issue. However, a beautiful beach front condo.

Property is on Sandbridge Beach. The widest strand of sand, quiet. End of the road. Very family friendly or couples. Easy access to beach. Just walk out property and you’re there. We had 4 br 4 bath ocean front balcony. Our unit was impressively decorated. Be aware there is only enough house goods to last a few days if you have a family. Easy 15 min drive inland to Harris Teeter or Target. Every morning pods of dolphins back and forth. Beach set ups can be arranged by local vendor- great idea as it gives your group a point of contact and shade. A coffee bar /cafe is across street. This location on Sandbridge is not a quick drive to VA Beach proper and that’s the idea. Loud crowds are not here.

Lovely location within the complex and amazingly kitchen. Bonus that all room with a bed larger a twin size had an on-suite. Any issues that arose were promptly dealt with by property management. Would definitely stay again.

Great place, needs better cleaning

It was a great property, but it needs a serious deep clean. At the rate we were paying, I would expect it to be a lot cleaner than it was. It was very obvious the cleaners do the bare minimum.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental was very nice - we had a total of 7 people stay and overall a good experience. Very spacious rooms and fit our needs. A few items that weren't stellar - The refrigerator desperately needs replaced - it is non-functional - we had meat in the tray defrosting and it spoiled because the lower drawers in the fridge weren't keeping items cool enough. The front was pretty disgusting with stains that wouldn't come clean. The ice maker was useless. The table must be re-finished or replaced as it looks grimy but wouldn't come clean. We had requested extra towels as we only received 6 sets and no one from the realty replied to our message, so we needed to buy a set at Walmart for our use. We did text the realty company about the refrigerator and someone did take a look/try to clean it, but it wouldn't come clean. Those were just a few negatives, but overall we had a wonderful week! Thank you. We are already booking for next summer :)

girls weekend

The condo unit, itself, was very nice, getting the key packet from the ocean sands realty was horrible, it was very late at night trying to find the lockbox outside their offices in the dark was not fun, opening the unit's door was frustrating!!!The owners need to replace/repair the keyed entry. The biggest issue WE had was that we thought it was rented thru VRBO, which after the fact you find out its not. When you get the "What to bring" list and it's toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher soap, hand soap, gargage bags etc. A VRBO rental would of had all those items there. I have rented a LOT from VRBO's and you never had to bring those items along. Like I said before the homeowners really need to fix the door handle as unlocking and getting in was a "crap" shoot and hope you just get lucky

I Have Never Left A Review Before But....

We stayed for a wedding for a few days. The ocean view is awesome, and the whole reason we stayed there. Porch very dirty, wiped chairs ourselves. Also internet intermittenThe items that got me were: 1. No keypad with code, had to drive to the office, pick up the keys and info, had to return the keys when we left - being tired we were not keen on that. 2023! 2. When we arrived we had 3 couples and 2 sets of keys, that became a challenge & we had to meet them at 2:00 a.m. to let them into the elevator. 3. Only 1 towel/washcloth per person, requested 6 more (2 times) charged $30 for those, never came so hope that not on our card. 4. Because a wedding and had a lot of luggage with changes of clothes and toiletries, no luggage carts to get everything upstairs, made 4 trips for 1 couple w/lots of heavy items. Need a cart for the unit. 5. Although we always hope for a clean unit, we understand can be something missed. But the floors had a lot of long dark hair in the bathrooms and dirty looking rugs that I wouldn't stand on. I am short hair blond and my husband has short hair also. I also wondered if the same rag used to clean bathrooms was used everywhere because I found the same hair inside the fridge YUCK! 6 Last VERY aggravating item was the master bdrm closet is locked, no master closet available, had to hang our clothes/share a closet with other guests, going in when they are awake - different schedules be darned. We will find another unit next stay.

There were two restaurants within walking distance. Everything about our stay was pleasant and we can't wait to come back.
