Amazing location and view!

It has an amazing view, both from porch and master bedroom. A private beach is key - but place is a very short walk to ocean beach. Great restaurants and bars are walkable. Rebobeth Beach is a short and easy drive. Very nice place!

Very nice placr

On the whole we love the place. Only negative if you have little ones the band noise is LOUD especially in the master bedroom you can hear it perfectly! Also if there is a lot of rain the street floods but it’s nothing against this place. It’s perfect for a safe little beach for our grandchildren ages 3 & 1. We would come again and stay here.

Enjoyed the bay

Air conditioning was excellent. 3rd floor stays cool. Loved the screened porch and view. Refrigerator and freezer need a tune up, but everything else worked great. Easy walk to many Dewey locales and beach. Dewey Water Sports was 2 blocks away. Grotto pizza one block away. Can hear kids running in attached units. Mattresses were very confortable. Was very clean.

Perfect beach getaway!

The view from the screened in porch is everything!! We stayed several nights with two other couples and had a lovely time. It’s close to the beach, on the bay with its own little beach, and the views are fantastic. It was clean and had two parking spaces (we got a third parking space from the “town of Dewey” kiosk for the third couples car and those spots (green spots) were right across from the condo. Walking distance to all restaurants in Dewey (we loved Starboard Raw the most) and just a great weekend!

Exactly what we were looking for

Had a wonderful impromptu getaway. We weren’t sure if we wanted to be closer to the ocean or on the bay. Hands down the screened in porch to hang out and watch the bay with our coffee and the sunset while playing games was absolutely what we wanted. The home had everything we were looking for/needed inside. Only thing that was awkward for us was having to bring towels and linens- I’ve never been requested to do that and had to find some xl twin sheets via friends. We are already making plans for our next trip ! The owner was fantastic and easy to work with!

This is a beautiful property and compound with wonderful access to the Rehoboth Bay and a private pier with dockage. We enjoyed launching our kayaks and stand-up paddle boards at the private beach as well as storing them in a secured area. We were also able to tuck our bikes away in a nice secure area And ride them into Rehoboth and surrounding areas including Indian River inlet. The stairs going in maybe a challenge for someone who has some difficulty with steps, but we found them a great way of knocking off any remaining sand on our footwear or bodies as we walked up. We were able to hose off at the very convenient hose area on the lower deck and brush off Any sand that we may have had on us prior to entering the unit. The screened in roll down shaded porch was a true joy to relax and listen to the flags flap in the wind and the seagulls and waters around the bay.

Best location we’ve ever stayed in, by far! We’ve taken many family beach vacations, and it’s rare to have usable outdoor space right outside the rental. The little beach and dock on the bay were perfect—a refreshing change from typical rentals. Our family enjoyed fishing off the dock and actually had space to play outside when we weren’t at the beach. This spot is ideal for a family of six. With seven, it felt a bit tight, but it was still one of our favorite places we’ve ever stayed!! The condo is two stories, with a master bedroom and full bath upstairs, and two bedrooms on the main level. There’s also a small TV room off the family room, separated by a sliding door, which worked well for an extra guest. There wasn’t any storage space in that room, so we kept the sofa-bed pulled out so he could store his things underneath. Overall, a wonderful stay with a great, responsive host who patiently answered all of my questions—I would highly recommend!

How did you get a king size bed up. Spiral staircase???

Great location on the bay, walking distance to everything. The private beach was nice for watching the sunset A few things could be updated , like the beds and the sliding glass door out to the screened in porch is a bit sticky and an older version. The top floor primary bedroom is a like a little oasis with a beautiful view.

A special place // a true gem

Somehow lucked into a late booking for this special place. Was told it was a place for family and a great place for kids. Not only was it great for our family but we felt like family for the way the owners welcomed and helped us. It’s a truly unique spot with a private beach on the bay. Our kids were able to explore and play — practically alone — for hours on end. The location is central in Dewey so we barely needed to get in the car. And the walk to the ocean is mere minutes. My only hesitation booking this place is that it may make it harder for us to get dates for next year! Do yourself a favor - book some time here. And make sure to be home for sunsets over the Bay. If you put on the 1812 Overture just at the right time, you may weep as my father and I did — watching the big red ball give itself over to the other half of the world, but sprinkling magic pinks and orange dust across the Bay as it does. “Again” my children yelled together.

Idyllic home right on the Chesapeake Bay

We had the summer vacation of our dreams! The house is perfectly located right on the water with the most amazing views and sunsets. Cute sandy beach for the kids to play wiffle ball, dock with plentiful crabs to catch, great spot to launch my paddleboard. Beautifully decorated beach home with just enough space for our 7 family members. Ocean a quick walk down the block. Walking distance from lots of restaurants and even more activities such as parasailing, pontoon rentals, banana boat riding. We even took skim boarding lessons! So grateful to the super owners for allowing us to stay!
