Close to the beach. Quiet. Spacious, breezy balcony overlooking spacious and well-appointed back yard. New kitchen appliances. Great location for the dog too, with access to fenced-in yard plus easy walk to the beach. Perfect for another memorable family beach vacation.
Our family of three, plus our family dog, had a lovely stay here. Everything was as advertised and the location to the beach was perfect. We cooked all our meals either inside or on the grill in the spectacular backyard oasis. Highly recommend!

Wonderful; close to everything
My girlfriends and I had a wonderful time in Dewey Beach this past weekend. The condo was within walking distance to the beach, and all bars and restaurants! We look forward to visiting again!

Great place to stay in Dewey Beach!
This is a great place to stay in Dewey Beach and a great value. Owners were very nice and helpful. The house is close walking distance to the Starboard, Rusty Rudder and Bottle and Cork. It is located only a few steps from the beach. Great back yard with fireplace and outside showers. Plenty of room in 3 separate apartments located in the 3 story home. 100 times better than a hotel. I will definitely stay here again.

Quick trip
We had a nice time. The apartment was well equipped. Parking was ample, off street. Beds are comfy (but I didn't like the extra-firm pillows; I'll BYO next time). The dog was happy. Wifi was fine.

Relaxing week at Dewey Beach
We just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our vacation in your apartment at Dewey Beach. We found the apartment nice and clean and were pleased that the kitchen was so well stocked with pots and pans so we could cook dinner there some of the nights and not have to go out every night. We also made use of the outdoor fire pit and really enjoyed the close proximity to the beach. Our dogs were very comfortable there as well. We would definitely come back.

Great location close to beach and town
This apartment's location is excellent. Very close to the beach and walkable to all of downtown Dewey Beach. We loved that our dogs could stay with us too. (Must have a Dewy beach dog license - $10 per dog) The apartment is well outfitted with everything you need. The deck is nice to have. The yard is large and great to hang out and for the dogs to roam around. Dell is very responsive to booking and all questions. We had a great week!

As always, we had a great stay at Rodney Dunes. Even though the town is growing and progressing, Dell and Larry have managed to maintain that "Dewey Way of Life" beachy feel we love and keep coming back to year after year. Everything we need is right there, steps from the beach, great outdoor showers, fun back yard, comfortable accommodations and we get to include our beach loving golden retriever! Thanks again for everything Dell!

Lovely week
My sister and I rented this apartment last week (July) and had a great time. It's cozy, equipped with everything we needed and the hosts couldn't have been lovelier - they were there when you needed them but out of sight otherwise. They take impeccable care of the property, inside and out. There is a massive backyard with tables, a fire pit, outdoor showers and beautiful plantings. There is a 30 second walk to the beach which was never too crowded. It's also a very short walk to great restaurants, bars and activities. We will definitely try to rent here again!

Great place to stay in Dewey Beach!
This is a great place to stay in Dewey Beach. We went for a long weekend and rented Unit B. The house has a great back yard with outside showers, fire pit and grill. The house is a 10 second walk to the beach. Parking spaces are available. House is walking distance to Starboard, Rusty Rudder, Bottle and Cork and Grottos. The owners of this rental were extremely cordial and gave us a tour of the other units which are also very nice. We are looking forward to staying there again next summer. Much better than staying in a hotel. Great value, great location! I am looking forward to coming back.
My family and I traveled from Chicago to Dewey in June. We loved the size and location of the property, but the unit itself could use some updates. The entrance to the “foyer” where the doors for the 3 separate units are doesn’t feel very secure, the trim in the bathroom is loose and the shower is very small- making it extremely difficult to shave your legs.
Dell and her husband were very nice and responsive, and everyone we met was very friendly.

Excellent Location!
This is a tough review to write because this apartment is literally 4 houses from the beach and in such a wonderful location. You could walk to so much and it was really, really convenient. However, the property needs a good amount of TLC in order to look like the pictures in the listing. The yard is overgrown and the patio furniture is worn from being out in the weather. The front door also needs to be lifted in order to close correctly. My conversations with the owner were very friendly and the apartment is a good place for a weekend, though, so maybe this is because it was the end of the season.
Great place and very attentive owners! Had everything we needed. Was the first time in awhile we had to bring sheets, towels, food, etc but the place was great. It was truly 100 yrds to the beach and very convenient for in town restaruants and easy to walk to all places! Dell & Larry were very accommodating.
Dell and Larry are great hosts. They were more than helpful and fun to talk with. The unit we rented was clean and comfortable, well-furnished and wonderfully close to the beach.
It was our first time at Dewey beach, and we loved it. The location of the rental cannot be beat unless you're staying right on the beach itself. Very convenient for my 77 yo mother who has arthritis and trouble walking. We could get a beach wheelchair for her at the lifeguard stand, but since we were so close, she preferred to walk on her own. Apartment had everything we needed. I would say it's more suited for 4 people as it gets a bit crowded with the pull out couch. Larry was so nice and had great recommendations. We loved all the dogs that we met at the house and on the beach! We will be back for sure!
Lovely condo in great location, central to Dewey businesses and quick access to beach. Dell was a gracious host, easy to contact and quick to reply. Fenced in backyard is great for dogs and humans alike!
