Loved our stay! We will definitely consider for next year! Clean, organized, spacious, loved being able to have the dogs and scrabble nights, club house, pool, and pickle ball was fantastic. Sunset deck was beautiful. We the photo of the kayaks meant they were on site, but they were not, so plan to go off site for that. Also, the bikes were fine and we loved having access to them, but the seats could not adjust, so you may want to bring your own, or rent.Those are just 2 little things we would adjust for next time, and we would totally stay there again.

Family getaway

We enjoyed the accommodations which allowed all of us to have our own space and yet still come together to spend time together. Everything we needed was at the condo, including kitchen items, bath and beach towels and a wonderful rolling cart for the beach. It was a very quiet and convenient location. A short drive to restaurants and the beach.

Beautiful place

The townhouse is situated in a beautiful community with a nice clubhouse that offers plenty of amenities and a pool. The home is very spacious with a lovely ambiance, and it was well-prepared for our arrival. Everything was clean and well-organized. The host paid close attention to every little detail, even providing bowls for our small dog. The rooms, bathrooms, and bed sheets were all spotless, and there were plenty of towels and beautiful china. We had a very nice time.

Great experience

Our family had a wonderful stay! There wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t there. It was very clean and modern. The king bed we had was very comfortable. Twin beds not as much. We loved the extra amenities with the access to the neighborhood clubhouse. Short drive to bethany beach but sometimes hard to find a parking spot. We will rent again.

Peaceful and relaxing

We loved our stay in this beautiful, peaceful and relaxing community! The property itself was spacious, clean and well-appointed. We loved the fully-stocked kitchen (cooked all week!), and made use of the pool and fitness gym every day! Condo had everything you could possibly need for a day at the beach! We loved strolling around the complex saying hello to all the friendly neighbors (and meeting their fur babies!). Parking was rarely an issue at the various close-by attractions (beach!), although we were there slightly after the summer crowd and kids were back in school. We will book again!

My family stayed in this property for Mother’s Day weekend. The property was well stocked and very clean. It is located in a beautiful, quiet community. Full access to a pool which my daughters loved. Also very dog friendly area. Even have poop bag stations around the premises. The owners were very responsive and allowed a late checkout on Sunday at no charge. The location is about a 5 minutes drive to downtown Bethany so great location if you don’t mind driving to the beach.

Great property and host

Stayed here a week while waiting to move into our newly purchased home in VA. The host was so accommodating and helpful. I had my dog, 94 yr old mother and adult kids. The space is beautifully decorated and has everything one might need. One thing to be aware though - there are a LOT steps. Steps at the front, steep steps from the garage, steps to the bedrooms. So keep that in mind if anyone in your party has mobility issues. The location of the property is perfect. Just a few minutes to Bethany boardwalk, Rehoboth Beach and the outlets. Grocery store 2 minutes away and lots of good restaurant options. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for our family of 6!

This place was perfectly sized for our family of 6 and the owners have clearly thought about everything you might need while on beach vacation. Plenty of towels, including beach towels, chairs, umbrella and toys for the beach. We used the bicycles multiple times during our stay to go back and forth to the beach too! The housekeeper was very responsive and helpful to address two non-urgent issues upon our arrival. House is clean, well maintained and the community club house has a pool and fitness center. We especially loved the game room/library! Quick tip: if you’re a coffee drinker, plan to find a coffee shop nearby or bring your own. The coffee maker in the unit is old and doesn’t keep coffee hot after brewing. Overall, thanks to the owner. They have thought of it all and we had a great week!

Wonderful vacation stay

This is our second year & we will be booking today for next year. There isn’t anything that you want or need that this house doesn’t offer. We felt like this is our home away from home. And we used all the amenities offered (indoor/outdoor pool, game room, pickleball court). We cooked some meals there & the kitchen had everything we needed. The house is very clean & well taken care of. There are no negatives with this house.
