Excellent Rental! The property and location are exactly as described. My wife and I had a wonderful vacation with beautiful and quiet North Bethany Beach right outside the front door. Just a few steps down off the lower deck, a few steps over the sand dune, and you are on the private beach. Could not be closer to the water! The townhome is well equipped, and has three spacious decks, and all have a wonderful views of the ocean! And the host is very responsive and accommodating! Great stay!

Why is vacation so short?

The weather forecast wasn’t shore weather but it was!!! (They always scare you for nothing!). A great vacation begins with a great family. To that you add a beautiful condo, beautiful weather and great food. We had it all. The air conditioner tried to spoil one evening but Steve was there within minutes and sent repair man Daniel out and we were cool again in no time. We ate at the recommended Matt’s Fish Camp and it was very good. Hard to believe we had a great restaurant a block away! We hope to see you again Bethany Beach!

We appreciate your kind words and patience about our home and what turned out to be a minor a/c fix. There's nothing like locating your vacation directly on the beach. We hope to see you again for another vacation. Best wishes, Marcia

Ocean Spirit has been on my “wish list” for 45 years…..as I watched it being built in 1980. And the experience over the Christmas holidays did not disappoint! Marcia was so kind and prompt in her correspondence to me and I truly appreciated that in a busy time of the year. My beautiful bride of 57 years passed recently after a two year battle with cancer. My two daughters and their families decided we needed to make a change in our traditions this year and a trip back to Bethany seemed appropriate since our family has loved it for the past 50 years. The house was perfectly situated on the most fantastic and peaceful part of the beach and the views were breathtaking. Accommodations were spot on with five bedrooms and the property was available off season which seems to be somewhat rare. Literally everything we needed was there….kitchen supplies, paper goods, soaps, etc. it was clean and warm and an absolute haven for all 7 of us. Waking up in the luxurious king bed in the primary to immediately sea the sun rising over the ocean was alone worth the price of admission. This Ocean Hamlet property is not “just another townhouse at the beach”, rather it is a very special place where views, sand, sea, sun and sky are right immediately at your beck and call. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. Thank for for offering your vacation home to us Marcia and Steve…..it truly made a difference during a very difficult period in our lives.

AMAZING VIEWS in this lovely townhome location in Tower Shores

Our family LOVED this townhome in Tower Shores with the most amazing ocean views. Since we have small kids, it was a real treat to be so close to the beach where we could easily take one of little ones up for naptime or grab lunch. The owner was so friendly and wonderful to work with....easily answering any question we had. The beds were also the most comfortable of any beds we've ever slept in while in a beach rental! The home is modestly decorated, but was perfect for our family and all you need for an incredible beach getaway. Highly recommend!

A bit expensive but WORTH IT !!

We loved staying at the property with easy beach access. It was spacious and comfortable for our small family of 5 adults and 2 children. Best part was falling asleep to the waves crashing on the beach at night, we already miss that.

Found our vacation home!

We have been coming to Bethany Beach for six years now and have stayed at five different places always searching for the perfect rental. This year we found it! As soon as we walked in the door we could tell this house was so much cleaner than the previous rentals. Since there isn't a screened in back porch we had beautiful unrestricted views of the ocean. The owner had lots of thoughtful little things (such as shower caddies in the showers to hold all your stuff!) that were greatly appreciated. I had to contact the owner with a minor issue and she went above and beyond to make sure the issue was resolved. As soon as I returned home I booked our stay for next year!! As far as we are concerned this is our forever vacation home!!

Thanks so much for your kind review. You managed to capture the essence of "Ocean Spirit" including the pride we take in response to maintenance issues that pop up when on the beach. We especially thank you for your consideration of the house and look forward to your return ever after.-Marcia

This was our first time renting a beach property, and it was such a good experience that we want to do it again! Ocean Spirit is just amazing - right on the beach but still private. The unit itself was clean and well-kept; the furniture was all really nice and the floor-plan made it easy to accommodate 2 families without getting in each other's way. It is very well located, also, with very convenient shopping. The owners were considerate and easy to work with, and we even had a bottle of wine waiting for us - what a great touch! We will definitely rent this unit again and would recommend it to all -

Thanks Peggy (and Richard too). We didn't realize you were first-timers; you seemed so experienced with your questions and your review. We've met some amazing people through Ocean Spirit and hope to be renting for quite awhile longer. We very much appreciate your comments and hope to speak further in the year. Take care. - Marcia and Steve

Ocean Spirit...Wonderful vacation!

We have stayed on Bethany Beach for over ten years, all at Tower Shores. Ocean Spirit is by far our favorite condo right on the Beach. The owners are friendly and are wonderful to work with and, unlike other owners whose property we have rented, the Plotkin's live nearby in case anything is needed. We spent the week there with two of our daughters, their husbands and five grandchildren and had plenty of room...and fun! Bethany and Rehoboth Beaches have plenty of great restaurants and family activities nearby, and shopping at the three Tanger Malls in Rehoboth is sales tax free.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 August 2023
The beach is terrific, isn't it? So glad you enjoyed our remodeling and all the sights and sounds around us. Bethany is quite the family town with great restaurants and activities. We hope you visit soon again and bring those grandchildren again. Nothing beats being able to walk right down to the beach. Thanks again for your positive review. - The Plotkins (glad Steve got to meet you even if in a most strange way)

This was my 5th year staying at Tower Shores complex but 1st at this property. How can it not be great....it is right on the beach! 3 decks overlooking the ocean, enjoyed morning coffee and breakfast in pajamas on the deck and evenings under the stars! The owners were awesome with which to work!! Looking forward to next year!!
