Cheerful Bayfront 3 bedroom home.

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 69 reviews6 months ago

We had a great time at this place. The house is located at the end of a street right at the ocean. Very private and spacious property. Many dining options, grocery stores and beaches are 15 minutes away by car. The perfect location if you want to be by yourself, but close to everthing. Everything was clean and as descibed. The kitchen had everything we needed and the rest of the house was well maintained and cosy. Would book again without a doubt.

"Sandy Feet" Broadkill Beachfront Home

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 94 reviews4 days ago

This was our second year staying at Linda's place, and once again, it did not disappoint! The home is just as beautiful and welcoming as we remembered: bright, open, and full of windows that offer stunning views of the ocean. It’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home. And Linda is a fantastic host! Super responsive, kind, and genuinely eager to make sure we had the best stay possible. We’re so grateful to have found this gem and already can’t wait to come back!

Condo 2 Bedroom Waterfront Lewes/Rehoboth DE

5 out of 5 average rating, 79 reviews1 week ago

This is a nice unit in a larger condominium complex that abuts the water. Very close to golf at Baywood Greens and Plantation Lakes. It is just a short drive off Route 1. It was Spartan and very clean. Large TVs in the living room and bedrooms but without regular cable TV. The host sent helpful videos to help us find the unit. Recommended.

Waterfront Condo With Olympic size swimming pool

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 9 reviews8 months ago

James was an amazing host. He was responsive, helpful, and kind. The condo was beautiful, clean, and perfect for our family. The neighbors were also very kind and welcoming. My children loved the pool and walking the bay. The views were second to none and the location was perfect since it was minutes away from restaurants, stores, and Bethany beach. We will definitely be booking again!

Beautiful Bethany Beach Retreat - Minutes to Beach

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 19 reviews7 months ago

This was our second time staying at Kaitlin’s canal house and it was just as great the 2nd time around as it was the first. It’s such a peaceful and beautiful location on the canal overlooking the marsh. Easy access for kayaking and fishing and just a quick drive to the beach. The house truly has everything. Can’t recommend it enough for a family get away!

Great place! The location and view are unbeatable in Lewes. Beautiful sunset (and daytime and nighttime) views from the big balcony. The condo is simple and uncluttered, small but comfortable and has everything you need. Wonderful to be able to get this location and view at this price.
