Dolphin Lodge

My partner and I booked this place on the long weekend which is one of the busiest times of the year. We understand that there is a policy that we wouldn’t get to have a refund for last minute cancellation. We had a sudden death in the family, and we wanted to see if there was any possibility for refund, credit or change of weekend. Knowing it was the long weekend, we imagine that they’d be able to get a booking if we cancelled. In the midst of any communication, the hotel did not pass condolences, and blamed us for using Expedia as the reason we could not get any refund or change of weekend. In the end, they have their right to deny waiving the cancellation fee, which is okay. I just wanted to share that there was no warmth and understanding in any of the interactions I had via phone or correspondence with the hotel. We are sad to say that we will not return to Dolphin Lodge, and we do not recommend this location.

The room was ready for us even with a late booking, was very comfortable

Arrived at 6.02pm and reception was already shut, so found out key and and room. Surrounding noise is loud from behind and below the apartment. Easy parking right by. Short walk to sea front and bay, very ltttle available in the evenings so ordered a delivery. Apartment has stocked items for 2 people so was great Alarm clock in the room had alarms set at midnight and 3am which was annoying. Pillows were comfortable, bedding was way too hard, but couldn’t leave window open due to noise.

Great value and good holiday location.

Clean and quite enjoyed it

Only stayed one night at Dolphin Lodge but was very impressed with everything about the place. One of the best value serviced apartments we’ve stayed in. To be honest, for the price we paid I was expecting a basic motel room. However we got a spacious apartment with separate kitchen and a dining/living room. A comfortable bed and spotless bathroom with great hot shower had us wishing we’d stayed in Albany a few extra days. Location is great, close to Middleton Beach and there’s a tavern with an extensive and reasonably priced menu within walking distance. Also a great cafe a couple of doors down. Highly recommended.

Excellent in every way. Highly recommended. Great location for beach.

Neat, friendly staff and comfortable accommodation

I liked the location and the property layout. It was clean and tidy. Only thing I can say is, would have loved a fan as it was a bit warm for the first part of the night. It however cooled down once I kept my bedroom door open

Travelling by myself, wish I had found Dolphin Lodge earlier. Next visit will be with my partner. Hope to spend! a week or more Next time
