Guest reviews for Dolphin Heads Resort
Location good Pool and restaurant area is inviting . Rooms are very run down , rooms not cleaned properly hair and mold in bathroom. Need a big cash injection - updating if they are wanting to charge what they are per night . Very disappointing has potential to be a great place to stay .

Unfortunately the units are privately owned and some owners are yet to renovate. We hope to see you back and if available we try and give as many renovated rooms as possible. With regards to the bathroom if you could please tell me what room number you had so I can investigate.
The view was magnificent however it took 3 room changes to get what I booked, 2 beds. The room smelt musty. The dinner was lovely at the poolside.

Hi, I am sorry that we did not handle your booking correctly. I will provide this feedback to staff and look into where the problem was.
Daughter grazed herself on the doorway to room as it was rusty and paint peeled off. Needs a little updating. Room was clean and staff were lovely. Pool was great. Beautiful view of ocean from room.

Hi Bry, We are very sorry your daughter grazed herself on the door frames. We have flagged this and the Body Corp is in the proceed to have these frames replaced. Hope we see you again soon.
Condition of the room was average, very outdated and not worth the cost of the room. Doorframe was rotting, ants in the room, only, wobbly roll away bed, no daily cleaning service, even if asked. No wifi. No shade over any area of the pool. Positives, lovely bar staff, sangria jugs and the beach.

Thank you for your review. We have looked at the fan and all is working, the TV has a switch beside the bed which was turned off, we are sorry that you did not let us know as this was easily fixed.
Reception is hardly ever open So if checking out early nowhere to leave keys

Thank you for your review. When our reception is closed as per the signage the Restaurant, Cafe & Bar takes over. We also have a key return box on the wall beside the front door.
