This home is everything it says to be and more. The home has a welcoming beach themed decor. You don’t need to bring much. Plenty of beach items, toys, chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and kitchen items. Oven and grill were perfect. Tons of extra blankets and towels. To keep sandy areas clean in house there were brooms and vacuums. Everyone on the beach in nearby homes were nice. Extremely peaceful and the extra sunroom was the best. The temperature was perfect in house. Games and books galore. We saw dolphins and some sand sharks way out. There is a hot tub that looked cleaned and was warm. The bathrooms were well stocked and nicely updated. There’s a small store up the road to get some essentials and ice cream. The town of Milton was quaint and the easiest for grocery shopping. Other beach areas had tons of restaurants and oh my the Tanger Outlets were perfect for tons of shopping deals. Would definitely come back again! Hosts are very sweet, prompt and extremely helpful! ##### Dawn L.

We love the views of the water from the house and how short the walk is to the beach. Although public, it feels like a private beach. We enjoyed making campfires on the beach and the sunrises over the water are beautiful for the early risers. Everything you need (kitchen utensils, towels, soap, linens) is supplied making packing much easier. We did have a glitch with the AC, but Tess and Andy were extremely responsive and got the problem resolved quickly. We are already planning to come back next year. ##### Don S.

Easy walk on a private path to the quiet beach. Lovely and comfortable furnishings. Large enough space for our family of 8 adults and 5 children. Well stocked kitchen. Luxurious and plentiful towels, beach towels and linens. Lots of games, toys for indoor and outdoor play. Tess was easy to reach and responsive to our questions. We look forward to our return. ##### Kathy C.

Beachfront tranquility offers a stunning waterfront retreat with scenic beach surroundings, bright windows and spacious rooms. The house had everything you could need, easily labeled and accessible. This place was exactly as described in the pictures and photos. Our family enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the kids enjoyed time on the beach flying kites, "saving the horseshoe crabs" that were upside down, watching the wildlife, and easy access to the beach. Although remote and set apart in a quiet area, the location allowed us easy access to great restaurants, shopping, and a short drive to Rehoboth Beach. Tess was a terrific host to work with and very responsive day and night! I highly recommend staying at this property if you are visiting the Broadkill Beach area! We hope to definitely be back! ##### Elizabeth M.

Taking advantage of its beachfront, the house provides views from all the living areas. It may be an older home but the new appliances and furnishings make it fresh. From 80 yrs to 5.. we all found our spots with plenty of room to spread out. The bay flies were kept at bay by the constant breeze making a full day at the beach very pleasant. It was great to have all the beach equipment at hand we put the provided kayak to good use! It was so nice to be away from the tourist traps and in a natural beach area. The fox trotting along the shoreline at sunset was priceless! Thank you for sharing this lovely home. ##### BETH H.

Tess is incredibly responsive and caring about her guests with great communication and many tips to offer. The house is incredibly well appointed for a large family who enjoys cooking, games, and easy access to the beach. Our littlest 2 year old easily navigated the path to the beach and was able to be very independent in the calm shallow waters of the bay. The kayak and hot tub are big hits with the older boys and the well appointed kitchen with our culinary crew feeding our large group. When you walk through the door of Beachfront Tranquility you see directly through to the ocean - and it's that way from anywhere in the house. Even on gloomy or rainy days, you can sit in virtually any room and still view and enjoy the ocean. We absolutely love this house - and it's owners! ##### Cindie V.

My wife, adult children, grandkids and I had one of our best vacations ever. The house was spacious and comfortable in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen was well supplied with appliances, cookware, utensils, plates, etc. In addition, we had plenty of beach paraphernalia including chairs, kayaks, toys, and wood for a bonfire. The ocean was literally in our back yard. My 4 year old grandson could not get enough of the beach where he and I would play for hours. Plus, each room of the house had a great view of the water. Our hosts, Tess and Andy Wald, were committed to ensuring we had a pleasurable stay in Broadkill. Tess in particular was very responsive to our needs - even months before our arrival - and urged us to ask her questions. When I inquired about something for our grandson she ensured Amazon delivered it to the house within 48 hours. Now that's above and beyond in my book. We created many wonderful memories during this vacation. Thanks Tess and Andy for a wonderful stay. ##### Rick S.

This was our third and best annual trip to Broadkill. The house is fantastic, location perfect and the owner welcoming, accommodating and responsive. Our group of 11 (6 A; 5 K) appreciated having ALL linens, garbage bags, soaps, sand supplies, etc. provided. It really cut down on packing. The kitchen was great. The adults loved the coffee grinder, French press and tea kettle for the mornings and the excellent blender easily handled aioli for grilled lamb kabobs. The convection oven kept the kids supplied with Dino-Nuggets and they enjoyed choosing their favorite colors of plates, cups and utensils. There is only one fridge, so we made a beverage cooler on the deck and bought ice every few days. The beds were comfy and the two older boys loved their own room for TV and occasional down time. Nonie and Pa relaxed on their sunporch for early morning reading with beautiful sunrises. We used chairs, umbrellas, sand toys and the two-person kayak and life jackets. We did not try the hot tub. We hiked the fun, easy Boardwalk Trail in nearby Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. (Do take bug spray.) Prime Hook also has a good little gift shop. When the wind blows from the west, yes, there are days with bugs, but that's why Delaware Bay is full of life -- birds, fish, aquatic creatures. From the sunroom we even watched a turtle lay her eggs. If you're looking for natural beauty, peace and solitude, this place is for you. ##### Norma L.

We continue to return because it feels like home to all my family…so welcoming. The beach is usually ours alone, the water is perfect for my grandchildren (ages 9-17) and for the adults too. Tess is wonderful and we can’t wait to return next year.

It has everything you need — lots of relaxing areas, comfy beds, a well-equipped kitchen (yes, real knives!), and everything for the beach, from toys to pretty towels. We enjoyed paddling in the sea kayak and floating on boogie boards with the kids. From the front windows we saw a fox and her kits, a turtle laying eggs and lots of birds. One night we were able to enjoy a fire on the beach. For a rainy day activity, we enjoyed the Quick Sip Tour at Dogfish Head Brewery in nearby Milton and also took the kids to Rehoboth for a few hours. The busy beaches aren’t for us. Broadkill’s serenity and natural beauty are gems to us all. We hope to return! ##### Norma L.
