A Great Time in a Great Place!

We are a family of 6 adults and 2 toddlers. The house is wonderful - very spacious and super clean. It is in a community which has plenty of amenities. We couldn't do it all in one week! The location is excellent, about 12 mins bus took us directly there.

Great stay in Bay Forest

Dave and Robyn‘s place did not disappoint. In fact we’d say the pictures don’t do it justice - the furnishings and decor exceeded our expectations and the whole family enjoyed our stay. Every room is spacious and the entire home was well cleaned. The Barone’s pay careful attention to the little details throughout that made our time there so enjoyable. We plan to stay again and would highly recommend to others!

Sea Scape Vacation

Dave & Robyn’s home is in an ideal location near pools, the bay, trails & the beach. The home is very clean, comfortable & equipped with every utensil/gadget we needed for our family of 3 generations. This home is tastefully decorated & feels like a home away from home. Highly recommended for a family.

Beautiful Family Vacation Home

Sea Scape Villa had all the comforts of home for our multigenerational family (infants through grandparents). It was beautifully decorated, comfortable and clean. It offered plenty of room to gather as a group as well as space to enjoy some individual quiet time. The outdoor patio provided a lovely area to enjoy morning coffee and an evening meal. The hosts were exceptional in regard to communication (both written and verbal) and were readily available to answer any questions. It was evident they put much thought into providing items their guests would enjoy for a beach vacation, including a bottle of wine to welcome us. We particularly enjoyed having bikes available for rides throughout the beautiful community. As well, our entire family enjoyed our time at the pools, crabbing at the dock and morning walks along the paths/trails. We are very much looking forward to returning again next year.

Beach Vacation

Great property. Very clean and spacious. The house has many amenities; ie: bikes and outdoor equipment. The community is well kept and the facilities are top notch. The only disappointing thing was the shuttle to the beach did not run during the week.

Wonderful Family Vacation

Dave and Robyn's home was tastefully decorated, spacious and convenient to everything we look for in a vacation home. The community was lovely and the feeling of being in a resort was great. We had all age groups with us - little ones, teenagers, and adults including a senior (me!!) And there was something for every one of us. A well-stocked kitchen made cooking family dinners a pleasure. The boys loved the loft space. It was truly a great experience and we'd love to stay again. The welcome bottle of wine was thoughtful and appreciated!

Friends and Family Vacation

We stayed as a group of 6 adults and 3 toddlers. The house was clean when we arrived, and their was plenty of space for everyone to hang out and play games. Awesome facilities with pool, lazy river and slides that kept us busy on non-beach days. Would rent again in the future!

Couldn’t ask for a better place

I cannot say enough about this property . Dave and Robyn have thought of everything as far as stocking the home with exactly what you would need on vacation . The house is beautiful, plenty of room for a family to make memories. We traveled with our son and twin 14 month old grandsons, a couple teenagers , and my father n law. There was plenty of room for everyone to gather and then plenty of room when everyone needed their own space. The patio space outside provided time to relax in the evening , grilling and playing corn hole ( we took our own boards ) . They provided ample seating outside for everyone. The location of their property in regards to both pools made it very convenient to put the twins in their wagon and walk there in 5 min to the one pool and 10 minutes to the kids pool while the older kids road the bikes that Dave and Robyn have supplied . All of the amenities that bay Forrest has to offer are located conveniently to the house . The kids enjoyed fishing in the many ponds located throughout and everyone enjoyed crabbing off the pier . As far as the beach location goes , you could take the shuttle that stops at the end of the street but we decided to just pack up the car and head over to the Indian River outlet beach . $10 to park car and they have lifeguards , changing areas , food, umbrella rentals etc. it was a beautiful place . If you are looking for a place down in Delaware to create family memories then definitely consider staying here . You won’t be disappointed and Dave and Robyn are there to answer any questions you may have . Definitely going back !

Recent Stay

Everything was great at the house. Enough room for 6 adults and 3 children. A lot of little things were already there that made our stay really easy. Only negative thing is the pool with the lazy river was only open in the weekends so we only got to use it once.

Bay Forest Gem

We have rented a home in Bay Forest in Ocean View several times...this is a beautiful villa in an awesome community. This particular villa was just great...the owners are very responsive and want to ensure their guests are pleased and have all that is needed during their stay. The location is minutes from the beach and there are many outstanding restaurants close by. During our stay (prior to Memorial Day) the area was relatively empty but picked up near the weekend. I can only imagine the crowds in a few weeks in Bethan y Beach.
