The Time of Your Life Awaits at Dolphin Time-Oceanfront

This property is new under our management. We are updating all of our properties as needed to ensure the best experience for your stay!

There is nothing more captivating than an ocean view. You'll discover that, and so much more, at Dolphin Time. Located in the exclusive, private condominium complex of The Sanctuary at False Cape and nestled in the charming Sandbridge Beach, community, this four bedroom, four bathroom expansive corner unit brings your beach vacation dreams to life.

An open, expansive floor plan creates ample one level living space. Rich, cherry wood flooring, detailed custom cabinetry and a built-in fireplace create a cozy ambiance for reading or playing board games, or just catching up on the events of the day. Granite countertops and stainless steel appliances accent the gourmet kitchen, ideal for the chef in the family. After a long day at the beach or shopping, the gentle lapping of the waves will lull you into a slumber so deep you may miss the alarm, however we don't recommend it - you won't want to miss the spectacular sunrises Sandbridge is known for. This is beach living at its best.

The wrap-around balcony is perfect for that first morning cup of coffee, or catching up with cocktails after a long day of shell seeking.
Conveniently located within a short distance to major shopping areas, tourist attractions, restaurants and the famed Virginia Beach boardwalk, Sandbridge is close enough for convenience yet has enough distance to maintain privacy.
The Sanctuary boasts three pools, two gyms and two libraries and the beautiful landscaped courtyards offer grillstations and poolside teakwood picnic tables ideal for outdoor BBQ's. At Dolphin Time, you'll make memories that will last a lifetime. Call us today!

PLEASE NOTE: This condominium does all work during the off season.

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.

The property management company made the process easy and exciting. The unit was spacious and had beautiful decor. The condominium was right on the beach and had 3 pools. There were two restaurants within walking distance. Everything about our stay was pleasant and we can't wait to come back.
