We enjoyed our stay in this house. The house had 4 large bedrooms with new and very comfortable beds. The house was roomy and well kept. The kitchen was well equipped and we hope to stay here again. The location was perfect, a short ride to the beach. Great neighborhood for bike riding and 2 pools in the development.

The community of Bethany West really made our stay even better. Quiet streets for biking, pool and workout rom were well-used by many of us. Trolly was fun! So much to do in the area, we will be back!
Beds were comfortable, showers great. Kitchen well supplied with cooking needs. Enjoyed the screen porch in the evenings.
Great location
Outdated house furnishings. Dining room yikes
Dirty rugs
Good linens although arrived late
Good porch space but worn. Dirty pillows
Door knob locks opened with a credit card and bolts hard to lock from outside
Good kitchen
Nice house. However, there was no railing on the front stairs which was quite dangerous for the age groups that were with us. No one told us about it. We found out when we got there.
My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at the Bethany beach rental property, about a mile from the beach. The easy access to the trolley which takes you to the boardwalk throughout the day and also access to two community pools 5 minutes walk away, make this house the perfect vacation for family and friends. We all had a great time and will definitely go back for another vacation.
