I was in this place on 12/27/11 the employees are very nice and try to help you as much as they can. However the accomodations are terrible in order for you to go from the beach or the pool to your room or to the parking you need to go at least 100 stairs. they have little cars but they... More

We stayed at the Dolphin Cove Inn hotel in Manzanillo for four nights, from December 18th to the 22nd. It is a shared property (hotel and shared condos) that has two different reception offices, one for the hotel, one for the condos. It is a mediterranean style property, with four rooms in each small building. It has a very good... More

While the town of Manzanillo itself is not that great we were delighted with our little hotel. It reminded us of southern Spain with all the white buildings nestled into the hillside next to the ocean. The rooms were clean, spacious, and nicely decorated although the furniture was a bit worn- charming overall. And they all had balconies,or terraces if... More

We stayed here in early April 2010. The room was clean and comfortable, with an awesome balcony overlooking the ocean. The bathroom was small, but cute, and it had acceptable water pressure and hot water. The kitchenette had all of the necessary dishes and equipment for meal preparation, though we didn't really use it other than to make margaritas. ;)... More

We found Dolphin Cove on tripadvisor and would just like to add that the staff, especially Hansel, were all very friendly and helpful. We felt this was a good value hotel, with an amazing balcony view, and reasonable food in the restaurant. We also enjoyed the beach and felt that walking up from the beach to our room was a... More

In a nutshell, our staying was great and I was surprised by how little I spent on it. The hotel is best enjoyed by families (when savings come first), but it's not bad at all for couples. Check their website and take advantage of the discounts. For our money, we got a fresh, spacious room with and awesome view, a... More

We found the room very sparse - 2 forks, 2 knives, 2 plates, etc. The reviews on the internet are mostly from family and therefore not accurate. We witnessed the owner treating employees very badly - bad temper. We were told it was Mr. Brown - ugly episode. We will never return and will not recommend it. More

We stayed at the Dolphin Cove Inn with another couple in early March 2011, taking advantage of their $199 special, which includes breakfast. What a deal! The hotel is in excellent condition (it has been three years since our previous visit), rooms are spacious and clean. The restaurant is excellent, making it unnecessary to leave the premises. The two downsides... More
