This is the second time we stayed at this property. It was clean and welcoming. The kitchen had every thing we needed for our stay. The beds and couches were very comfortable. The owner was easy to communicate with, kind and flexible! We had a wonderful stay again!

Thanks for choosing my beach house again! This shows me how much you loved it here and I was very happy to host you again. Thanks for being such great guests and cleaning up! I truly appreciate guests like you! -Suzanne
Our stay at this relaxing Vrbo was quite quaint. The house truly felt loved and well cared for. It was exceptionally clean, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need—it honestly felt like you were staying in your own home.Best of all, both of our Labradors traveling with us were welcomed and made to feel right at home. It was wonderful to find a place that was not only comfortable for us but welcoming to our dogs as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

Dear Athena, you and your dogs (and you husband - lol) are welcome back any time. I truly appreciate that you took such good care of the house. I found absolutely no evidence that you or your dogs/husband/kids were here as you left if very clean. Thanks for being such a great guest! -Suzanne
This house was perfect for our family of 4 and our puppy. The house was super clean and fully stocked with everything we would need and more. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, and even on a holiday weekend, the beach was only a short drive away! We will definitely be back!

Thanks Chris, I really appreciate your wonderful review and that you went above and beyond to pick up after yourselves. I couldn't even tell you had a puppy here. Thanks again for placing linnens/towels in the washing machine - I didn't expect that. I look forward to your next visit. Remind me that you are a return guest and I will give you 10% off the nightly rate. All my best to you and your family!
Above and beyond from what we expected. At first when we were booking we were kind of nervous. As soon as we got here that all went away. Such a warm welcome into a very beautiful home. Very peaceful, quiet neighborhood. Outstanding communication with the host, fast responses. Would definitely recommend, and will also be trying to come back next year. Thanks for everything!! We also got to see Betty!

Dear Phillip, I sincerely appreciate your very kind review. I also see that you went above and beyond to clean up after yourselves. It doesn't even look like you were here. I would happily rent to you again!!!
Stay was great! We had ample space for 5 people and my dog. It's seated in a nice quiet neighborhood. Communication was very good. We had a lot of fun. Would recommend.

Thank you for your wonderful review, and glad you had a great time! Thank you for leaving the house in perfect condition. I hope to see you again.
Beautiful home! It gave a mountain type feeling which I love. Yet so close to the beach and plenty of stores.Pet friendly which is great! We brought our dog on vacation this year for the first time. Plenty of space in the home so we could fit his crate for when we went out.The home is very clean and has a really nice layout.I would definitely stay here again. The host is attentive and is very kind. If you like the beach but also prefer a quieter place to retreat, this is it.Thank you again for sharing your home with my family.

Wow, thanks so much for the very nice review. As I mentioned in a personal note, you were the perfect guests! Thanks again for taking such great care of my beach house. People like you are a blessing.
The house was beautiful and very clean. It was spacious enough for our family of 4 and 2 dogs. We did have some trouble with our air conditioning in a bedroom and the host went out of her way (like 6 hour drive) to come and help us resolve the situation. She was very helpful, understanding and accommodating!

Thank you for leaving the house so clean—you were a wonderful guest! I wanted to clarify the situation with the air conditioning in the Family Room so future guests have the full context. Unfortunately, the A/C unit broke the week before your stay. I had my HVAC team out right away, but they needed to order a part to complete the repair. In the meantime, they supplied a portable unit that was tested and working.
However, during your stay, the portable unit began tripping the circuit breaker. I made the six-hour drive to meet my HVAC technician, and he provided a smaller replacement unit that functioned properly for the remainder of your visit. To help make up for the inconvenience, I also issued a $200 refund.
I’m including this information so that future reviewers have a complete and accurate understanding of the situation.
I hope you consider renting with me again. All my best to you!
Suzanne’s home was perfect for us and our 2 dogs. The bedrooms are spacious which let us set up a pack & play for our baby. The home had everything we needed. Appliances seemed new, as well as most things. The only downside was there wasn’t somewhere to just let our dogs out to potty, I did have to walk them around but the neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed our morning walks around. The house is about 15-20 minutes from Bethany Beach. Suzanne was very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed the house—it truly means a lot. Since your visit, we’ve cleared all the weeds in the backyard to make it even more dog-friendly. We have steps planned for the far side of the deck to make it even easier to access the back yard area. It's on the list.
I welcome you and your family back any time as you were the ideal guests!
Relaxing Retreat is a perfect name for this home as it sits away from the hustle and bustle of the busy beach towns, but close enough to be at several hot spots within minutes. The home is well appointed with all the necessities as well as some bonus activity items. Everything was clean and orderly, and communication with the host was effortless and efficient.
Very clean/new property. Stayed with family including young child and dog. Easy to maneuver large crib and luggage in/out and around the house. Backyard was nice for the dog to explore and friendly neighborhood. Kitchen fully stocked, plenty of all the necessary supplies. Back patio was also great and comfortable to hang out on. Grill looked brand new but did not use. Check in/out very easy and simple.
