At the Ocean House, they know your dog is part of your family. That’s why they started the Pooch Program, to make your pet’s stay, like yours, comfortable and enjoyable. Well-mannered dogs 50 pounds and under will be welcomed with treats and a toy and have the use of a designer dog bed and dog bowls. The concierge will provide up-to-date information on pet walk areas. Leashed dogs are allowed on the private beach before 8 a.m. and after 6 p.m., with expanded hours October through May. And, with a reservation and an added fee, dog sitters and walkers can be made available. There is a limit of two dogs per room, up to 50 pounds total. Ocean House was recently named to Forbes Magazine's list of "Most Luxurious Hotels & Spas", and is one of the top 100 hotels in the world according to Travel + Leisure readers.
