房間很乾凈，洗澡也很方便，廚房視野開闊，小院很舒服，可以三面看海，值得下次再入住；地理位置超方便；晚上可以直接在小院裏看星星

living room的味道很重；洗澡房沒有暖氣，特別冷。單人間的價格偏貴了。

我們五個人，房間剛剛好住五個人，挺好。早餐在院子裏吃，遠遠可以看到大海。車直接開到院子裏，很方便，房東有問必答。

房間衞生衹能説無法形容，服務幾乎沒有，被褥陳舊有味。但實事求是講錢也沒花到😛。最大的亮點是有停車位，緊挨着海邊，步行即可前往觀鯨船碼頭！

Don't let the description "backpacker" put you off if you're not one. Yes it is aimed primarily at backpackers but there are also a couple of nice en suite rooms. The room was a reasonable size, clean and the bed was comfortable. You can also have access to the communal kitchen. Lovely welcoming host. There's a short cut (steep) pathway to the town with bars and shops. Recommended

Absolute rip off. Avoid Dolphin lodge completely. Their website says pay when you stay but they keep 100% even if you don't stay. We canceled by midday. We found the rooms to be small and mouldy smelling, with poor privacy. Their booking system guarantees you will be ripped off
