This was a great beach house for my family and I. We loved the location. Easy walk to restaurants and loved that the trolley picked us up right at the end of the road.

Fantastic! We are so delighted to hear that you enjoyed your vacation at this wonderful spot. We hope you will visit us again next summer !
This home was even better than advertised. The space and beds were perfect for our group and the access to the beach was top notch. The kitchen was well appointed with updated appliances and had more than what we even needed for our stay. Highly recommend this home.

Hi Andrea - Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. This property really is a lovely place and so close to the beach. Ocean block ! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope you will visit with us again next summer
Extremely pleased with the amenities and location of this place! Oceanside so no busy roads to cross to get to the beach. Little Store right across the avenue and Sharky's next door make for convenient needs or meals. Great place to stay!

Hi David - Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Thankfully there is off street parking for this unit. We hope you had a great time here at the beach and will visit with us again next summer
Overall, it was a great place to stay! The parking is a little tight, especially since we have a minivan. Thankfully, the neighbors of the triplex were helpful and we worked together to be able to park well enough. The appliances are nice and updated. Beds were comfortable. I thought it was a nice touch to have both a Keurig and regular drip coffee machines. I loved the private balcony off the main bedroom. The extra blankets were fine but a bit light for me, so if you are like me and like heavier bedding, I recommend bringing something from home. Again, overall, very nice beach house! Loved being able to easily walk up to the beach, especially since we have 3 little ones! Thanks so much to the realtors for being super helpful when I had questions!

Hi Peggy - Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We have noted and changed the bedroom to a king. Maintenance items have been taken care of and thank you for letting us know. the kitchen was renovated not too long ago. We are so glad you and your family enjoyed their stay and we hope you will visit with us again next summer.
Take care
The location on the beach block with easy walking access to all of Dewey Beach is the best part of this property. Our teenagers loved the fun vibe of the area and we loved being able to walk back and forth to the beach throughout the day.
Easy bike or trolley ride to Rehoboth. We rode bikes there every day.
While I gave 5 stars for all categories, there are a few items I feel worth mentioning in the review which I don't think deserve lowering my ratings, but could be helpful for future travelers:
We didn't have any issue with parking our two smaller cars, but if you're looking to get a couple Suburbans or something similar in the assigned spots, it's going to be tight. The listing says two cars max, but the info binder states you can park a third in front of the unit's garage
if it doesn't interfere with the neighbor.
Wish we brought light blankets in addition to sheets. The blankets on all the beds were very thin.
There's a skylight directly over the the master bed. We improvised a shade for it.
Definitely would stay again, no real issues at all and communication with Remax was great. Very responsive to our inquiries.

Good location, but dirty
The location was good, it is ocean block, no crossing the busy road. Parking is tight, but at least free. Space and layout is good. Decor and furniture is definitely dated, powder blue carpeting on stairs and upstairs was old and dirty. I could have dealt with the dated decor, no big deal. The problem was the first day we checked in we had to sweep the floors and what we got into the dustpan was disgusting. Lots of curly black hair, dirt and sand. Sand is expected, but we are a family of blondes, not a black hair to be found. Which tells me the cleaning between stays is seriously lacking. Our feet and socks were black from walking in there. The walls are dirty, cabinets, quilts, everything. I emailed ReMax about this, but never got a response. There were also ants all over the kitchen. We travel a lot and are used to staying in vacation rentals. This was among the bottom of the barrel. I would not stay there again, nor recommend it.
