About this property

Oceanfront SeaColony Penthouse with Gorgeous Ocean Views!

This spacious contemporary penthouse condo with a vaulted ceiling in the living room is bright, clean, sunny and cheerful with gorgeous ocean views from the living room, dining room, kitchen, master bedroom and the large private balcony. You can relax while overlooking the promenade, the dunes and the wide stretch of beach and ocean. While drinking our coffee in the morning, we watch the playful dolphins below as the sun rises over the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. This year we saw a hump back whale in the ocean right in front of our building.

We now have two newly renovated bathrooms. We have made many new purchases which include two sofas in the living room, one is a queen sleeper.
The bed in the master bedroom is a Wyndham Simmons king-size pillow-top mattress. For the dining room we purchased a contemporary table with 8 chairs, measuring 72” with the leaf in, enough for 8 people to eat meals together if they wish.

We also purchased a new range/oven with an above-range microwave, both in stainless steel.
We have also purchased contemporary shutters for the primary bedroom windows which almost cover the entire east wall. When opened there is no obstruction of the magnificent ocean views. The ocean sounds will lull you to sleep at night.

We have porcelain tile flooring throughout the living room, dining room, kitchen, both bathrooms and the hallway. Carpets cover the bedroom floors. We recently renovated the living room, dining room and kitchen. We knocked out a few walls in the kitchen to provide a more open feel with greater views of the ocean, beach and dunes. We are replacing the floors with porcelain tile, while keeping the carpets in the bedrooms. We are painting and putting up new cabinets and quartz countertops in the kitchen. We also have replaced the balcony doors and floor to ceiling windows.

The living room and both bedrooms all have flat screen wall-mounted TVs. There is a DVD player in the living room and free WIFI throughout. This condo comes with a covered reserved parking space under the building and one additional parking space is available in the lot if more than 2 guest passes are purchased. Bike racks are located under the building so you can bring your bike or rent one in town.

This condo sleeps 8 in beds; there is a king bed in the primary bedroom and two queens in the second bedroom and a queen sofa sleeper in the living room. We have blackout window treatments in the living room.

We love the wide stretch of private beach for Sea Colony guests only. There are lifeguards on the beach in the summer . Beach chairs and toys are available in the locker in the garage on the main floor or for rent on the beach or you can bring your own. It is much less crowded than the beach in town, and much much less crowded than Rehoboth or Ocean City beaches.

Sea Colony has 24-hour security. A vacation in Sea Colony can run the gamut from beach fun to tax-free shopping to golfing, tennis and water sports. The privacy of the 'quiet resort' allows guests to sunbathe and enjoy the soothing ocean breezes in peace. Amusement parks and outlet shopping centers are not far and they provide more variety of family-friendly fun.

This world-class resort tennis facility offers an astounding 34 courts along with tennis clinics, camps and lessons by teaching professionals. Golf courses nearby include two dozen courses featuring waterfront and forest layouts designed by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Sea Colony also organizes weekly events such as bingo, camp fires on the beach and other fun family activities.

The town of Bethany is only .5 miles north of Sea Colony, an easy walk to the boardwalk, restaurants, bookstore, and many other specialty shops. The library in town allows summer vacationers to get a card and use their services which include a nice variety of DVDs and books. We enjoy many of the fine restaurants in Bethany and Oceanview, and if you want to go a bit further Fenwick, Rehoboth and Ocean City.

If you are interested in another property which I also own one floor below this one with the same gorgeous views, similar furnishings, and the same floor plan, please look at VRBO/HOMEAWAY AD #564354.

A really nice stay at this Sea Colony condo

My wife, 10 year old and I usually rent a condo at Sea Colony for our week long summer vacation. We're so glad we chose this condo this year. The Owner was very easy to communicate with and the condo is exactly as shown / described in the listing. Its clean, all the appliances work perfectly, the tv, internet, etc. was great and the ocean view was beautiful. We hope to stay again next summer.

Fantastic Stay

Beverly was communicative and welcoming. The condo was great for our family of four and had the amenities we needed for a relaxing beach week. The view off the balcony is gorgeous and we enjoyed many hours sitting out there while the kids slept or took a daytime rest. The pools were easy to get to and the private beach was easy to walk to and had plenty of space. We would love to stay here again!

The view is AMAZING

The location allows you to hear the surf and enjoy the view! It almost felt like being on a cruise ship (not in the small way) as you could see the water without seeing the shore line. Beverly was very communicative and helpful. We may show up here again next year!

A nice stay!!

The views were lovely, the beach clean. Being a couple weeks before the summer season officially began meant it was nearly a deserted complex. that means QUIET! The unit we rented was in lovely condition and being on the top floor had the best views. My bed was comfortable and the shower had amazing water pressure. I imagine staying when the pools are open would be a completely different experience. Sea Colony has a lot of rules, which are understandable, but limiting. Bethany beach is a lovely and quiet community. The boardwalk and shopping district are a short walk away which was nice. Beverly was very communicative and available to answer any questions that arose. All in all it was a lovely getaway.

Oceanfront Condo with Gorgeous Views

I recently stayed at this condo with my family, and we had a wonderful week. The condo is absolutely beautiful, with a cathedral ceiling in the living room, and stunning views of the ocean from the master bedroom, living room, and the top-floor balcony. The kitchen is well-equipped, and we had everything we needed for cooking and dining. The bathrooms are very clean, and all the appliances work flawlessly. The furniture is all high-quality; the mattresses in both bedrooms are very comfortable. We loved relaxing on the top-floor balcony after a day at the beach. The location of the unit is also perfect: on the top floor of the high-rise (it is very convenient when one needs an elevator), just steps from the beach, and the closest within the Sea Colony to the shops, restaurants, and outdoor entertainment on and near the Bethany Beach boardwalk. We had a wonderful vacation week at this condo, and we would definitely stay here again. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a beautiful and quiet place to enjoy a vacation in Bethany Beach.

Lovely Sea Colony condo, responsive owner - would stay there again!

This was our 2nd stay in an oceanfront condo at Sea Colony in Bethany. The 1st time was great, but this time was even better because we were dealing with a responsive owner (Beverly) instead of the mgmt company that handles most Sea Colony rentals. The condo was up to date and nicely furnished. Everything worked. (There were helpful notes posted near certain features, like the one explaining the wall switch for the ceiling fan.) The beds with their new mattresses were especially comfortable. We did have to bring our own towels and bedding (same other weekly beach rentals we’ve done so this was not an issue). There are pillows on the beds, but you may want to bring your own pillows like we did to make sure you have the feel you’re accustomed to. The condo has a small W/D combo which was great for a small load of clothing or a few regular bath towels. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils and basic equipment, plus some basic dry ingredients like salt, pepper and a few other seasonings. There were also consumables like paper towels, trash bags, dish detergent, and other cleaning items. Beverly asks guests to bring these items in case the ones in the condo run out, and we did bring them, but we didn’t need them (we left them for the next guests).The condo has TVs in each BR and the living room, plus stereo and DVD player in the LR. Bring your fave DVDs or watch the classics that are there. I’ve reached the character limit here - would def. stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Beverly Catron

Host profile image
I am a pediatric occupational therapist who has always loved the ocean though I was raised in the Midwest in Illinois. When my two children were young we came from Bethesda, Maryland to many beaches along the eastern seaboard, including Rehoboth and Bethany Beach Delaware and even the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I always dreamed of having my own place on the oceanfront. In 2012 I accomplished that dream when my son and I bought this beautiful condo in Sea Colony. We are enjoying it immensely and look forward to sharing it with friends, family, and guests.

If you are interested in another property by the same management with the same gorgeous views, floor plan, and similar furnishings as this one, please look at VRBO/Homeaway ad # 564354.

Why they chose this property

Bethany Beach quickly became our favorite vacation spot because it was so close to our home and we could be on the beach the same day we arrived. We like its small town, quiet atmosphere and family orientation. We go to Rehoboth or Ocean City, just 20 - 30 minutes away for outlet shopping, amusement parks, and bike riding on the boardwalk. We chose Sea Colony because it is right on the ocean with beautiful views. We love the activities provided in the summer for the families in the Sea Colony community. The shuttle service provided in the summer months makes getting around the resort very easy.

What makes this property unique

We specifically chose this condo because of its gorgeous views of the ocean from the balcony and most rooms inside the condo. It is spacious, bright and sunny, and clean from top to bottom. We love the large rooms and vaulted ceiling. In the summer, as we drink our coffee we enjoy watching beautiful sunrises and playful dolphins from our living room and large balcony. There are beach combers on the sand, children and adults in the pools and walkers on the promenade.
