About this property
Sea Colony Close to Tennis/Fitness/Shuttle Charming 2 Bedrooms Plus Loft
Welcome to the Bethany Beach, Sea Colony's best resort spot, Southwinds. Nestled in tall trees and pines, this private, secluded "beach cottage" has lovely wooded views. A charming outdoor area has been created for you to enjoy after a fun day at the beach. This is the perfect location, it is convenient to tennis courts, pools, playgrounds, fishing ponds, the fitness centre, and the in-season shuttle to the beach (if you don't choose to walk, bike, or drive).
Our two-bedroom plus loft comfortably sleeps eight with a king bed in the first master bedroom and a queen in the second. The spacious loft has twin over full bunk bed and a twin bed.
Tastefully decorated, cathedral ceilings, walls of sliding glass doors and many, many windows provide an abundance of natural light. The large living area opens onto a wrap-around screened-in porch, all new furniture and flooring. There is a sunny open deck off of the dining area.
Our home is the perfect getaway for any season. The beach is not just for summer anymore. Perfect for Mother's Day, Striper season, golf weekends and come see why Sea Colony is The Premier Family Beach and Tennis Community. My family invites your family to RELAX and ENJOY a great holiday here!
As a guest of Sea Colony, enjoy the aquatic centre, fitness centre, tennis centre, playgrounds, walking paths, and one-half mile of guarded, private beach.
Enjoy the beach, splash in one of the 12 pools, play tennis on one of the 32 tennis courts, or just chill out with a cocktail on the wraparound porch.

The host was fantastic with communication. The unit was clean and well-stocked. Every room in the unit was comfortable and clean. Beds were great. Kitchen was well stocked. The outdoor patio was dark and we did not sit outside. The unit is a few short steps from the Sea Colony tram and it was easy to get to the beach. It is a short walk to the Market Place for dinner. Ellen is great and it would be super if other hosts could learn from her.
We had a good short stay at this property. It was well stocked and clean. We also liked Sea Colony, not a knock on the owner but wish Sea Colony would charge daily rates for their badges, we had to pay full weeks price for a 2 day stay.
Our family had a wonderful end-of-summer getaway trip and it was exactly what we needed. Peaceful, quiet, comfortable. The house is close to the tram, which is close to everything! Parking was easy. The screened in porch on rainy nights invited family bonding and togetherness. Ellen was wonderful to connect with and we are thankful for our trip!
good location.
owner helpful
main issues were tv did not work initially,
dinner table chairs lacked bolts on legs , and 2 collapsed when people sat on them
utensils storage area was not cleaned
one bed had broken springs
just fix these issues and property woulld have good rating
It was our first visit to Sea Colony in 35 years. Sea Colony is a huge development including high rises and townhouse and low rise flat dwellings with beachfront, multiple pools, many tennis courts, etc. Despite its size it is pretty tastefully laid out. People were in beach mode, very nice and laid back.
This is a cute 2nd floor flat which is well laid out with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, kitchen, dining and living room areas all on main level, + a loft. Also a screened in porch and small deck. The location is quiet, facing woods and adjacent to a stream, a short walk to the fitness and aquatic centers and a pleasant tram ride or short drive or short bike ride to the beach (there are outdoor faucets/showers at the beach entrances to get sand off, and there are pools right there which could serve the same purpose). Beds and furnishings were comfortable, appliances and plumbing worked well and AC was effective and quiet. Parking was easy. The owner was rapidly responsive to my texts.
It got 4 rather than 5 stars because I use an absolute scale... 4 stars is my max for this type of accommodation which is not new (90s?) but is well maintained, without the posh bells and whistles of high end (and high $) new construction. So, "just fine, very good" but not "top of the line." My family (2 kids, parents, 2 grandparents) had a great time.
My husband, two boys and my 70 year old parents stayed for 4 days and it was the best beach resort in the DMV area. It was great for my mom, who's back made it difficult to walk, because the tram drove us anywhere we needed to go, including to the beach. Overall, I can't say enough good things about Sea Colony. There are no pool bars, or bars or restaurants at all in the resort so it doesn't attract young partiers, making it a more family friendly environment.
Regarding this unit - it was a great size for the 6 of us. My parents and my husband and I had our own bedrooms and the boys enjoyed having their own space in the loft. The kitchen was well equipped to make meals and it was nice having a washer and dryer in the unit. Overall it was clean and functional for our stay. The only critiques I have are the bugs outside the front door. It is right next to the woods so there are spiders and various bugs, but the cleaners should probably just sweep off around the front door to remove the dead bugs for a better first impression. Also, it was advertised that they provide toilet paper, paper towels, etc. There was one partially used roll of paper towels and each bathroom had the one roll of toilet paper that was on the dispenser. We ended up having to buy both, which we could have brought from home if we knew that we needed to. There were also no extra trash bags. I just recommend bringing your own so you have some back-ups. Not a reason not to stay here.
Everything about our stay at Sea Colony was wonderful- except for the check in at the office. The young man assisting me was not helpful or nice. The 2 people working with him were very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful , though.As far as the condo, it was perfect. It was clean, with comfortable beds. Lots of spaces to gather. Porches were nice (loved the sandy touches) with eating and sitting areas. Communication with Ellen, the host, could not have been better.The tram ran frequently and can accommodate lots of veach stuff.If I had any recommendations, it would be better lighting and a new shower curtain in the hall bath.Being boaters, it was fun to read the flags hanging on the wall.I would definitely return here for our yearly girls trip.
Wonderful cozy Condo in Sea Colony was just what we needed to recharge and get some family time. Eileen was very helpful in rearranging our stay and very accommodating. Highly recommend! Enjoy!
It was a great place to stay! The ONLY complaint is that there was not a good broom or vacuum to use while we were there!

I want to start this review by saying we have vacationed and rented in Sea Colony for over 25 years. We have rented multiple units. This time our stay was highly disappointing due to the poor condition and lack of maintenance throughout the property. The kitchen area was sloppy, unorganized and appeared dirty. Master bedroom mattress was extremely uncomfortable. The decor seemed thrown-together and the toilet bowl was not installed correctly. The doors were also in terrible shape—the screen doors fell right off their hinges when touched, and the sliding doors would not lock at all. Additionally, the outside decks were extremely dirty and looked like they had not been cleaned or maintained in years. While the owner did get back to us in a timely fashion, the uncleanliness was blamed on the renters. We looked at the reviews before hand and trusted them to be accurate. This however is a much more accurate description from experienced renters.

My family and I had an amazing time at Sea Colony and will definitely come back. My only complaint is when we entered the property the floors were covered with sand! They were not cleaned at all before we entered. I also thing part of the problem was that the porch was surround by a moat of sand. Other than that the property was great and we enjoyed our stay.
Amazing location for family vacation. Sea colony offered everything we could have imagined. Just wish the listing had been more clear that we needed to bring our own linen 😱
Well equipped, the size of the unit was great and the beds were comfortable. The non-screened porch was not used due to furniture conditions and porch grime, the screened in porch as used daily.
We were very thankful to find this place, as we were only staying for 3 nights. We are used to the ocean side of Sea Colony so this was a little different for us. Ellen was a gracious host and was very clear about what was/was not included with the rental. The area is very quiet and peaceful! It met our expectations and we had a lovely weekend!
Quick responses from property manager. Would not rent this property again. In very bad location - behind other condos. Long unlighted path around to the back of the building to get to entrance. Owners try to make it cute inside but it is dark. Management said there would be sheets and towels when we got there. Some sheets were thrown on top of the beds and no towels. When called about this I was told to use some of the beach towels that were there for our bath towels. Or what I’m used to when renting in sea colony
