Choir Retreat Weekend

Guest: the choir (alexandria VA)
Date of Stay: 09/26/08 Review Submitted: 11/06/08

Our church choir and their families retreated to Rehoboth for a weekend of fellowship and singing in September. The house was perfect for our needs. Large, comfortable, well-appointed and well-maintained in a quiet residential area of the town. Added plusses were the hot tub, proximity to the beach and restaurants, a large kitchen and eating area and a large screened front porch. Highly recommended for families!

Owner response:Thanks for your kind words, Linda. It was wonderful to have you, and we look forward to having you back again this fall!

Amazing home

Date of Stay: 11/23/11 Review Submitted: 12/08/11

Our party of 13, including 5 kids, had such a relaxing stay at your home. We had more than enough space for the kids to run and explore. They especially liked watching movies in the guest house. The kitchen was well appointed and had every utensil and appliance you could think of! Each bedroom was unique and nicely decorated. We had the pleasure of staying in the master bedroom and the rain shower in the master bathroom was AMAZING. The proximity of your home to the beach was convenient. Although we visited in November, we were able to enjoy an unseasonably rm day at the beach while taking family photos. Everything about our stay was magical. I felt sad leaving, but I dream of returning back. Kee the porch light on for us, we'll be back soon. Bravo to the owner. I'm dreaming of returning and having drinks on the porch. Your home is a gem.

Owner response:Thank you so much for your kind words, and especially for staying with us at Seahorse Crossing! We enjoyed making our home available to you, and look forward to having you back with us again sometime soon. So many of our guests are returning ones, it feels like "family" to us...and makes sharing our home with nice folks like you much more fun! Best wishes for the happiest of holidays!

This is a great place for family and families to spend time together. It was the perfect location for a special holiday gathering. It was also a comfortable place for 13 people (including 5 kids!). You can't beat the location- one block from the beach. Thanks Todd! The Anderson's

Owner response:Thanks for being such wonderful guests! We are so glad you and your family enjoyed your family getaway during the "off"-season...it's our favorite time to be in Rehoboth and one of the many reasons we love having guests like you! We look forward to welcoming you back to Seahorse Crossing at some time in the near future, and counting you as some of our many loyal guests who are becoming like "family"!

Family Vacation for 16

Guest: Herb (Bergen County NJ)
Date of Stay: 07/30/11 Review Submitted: 08/07/11

Upon arrival we were immediately taken by the impressive furnishings and layout of the house and grounds. Our visit was perfect in every respect. Our family included teens, tweens, children, young adults and of course Pop-Pop and Grammy each and everyone found just the right mix of relaxation and activity. One of the highlights for everyone was our outstanding dinner with Chef Gary. His preparation, presentation and personality made the evening the perfect ending for the perfect day. Todd's caring manner and attention to details created the best vacation imaginable, this coming from a family that has done a great deal of it together. We have had many cruises and houses in several settings, this will remain as the best of the best. We look forward to next year's return to go to places found but not explored and return to those we enjoyed so much.

Perfect Family Reunion Space

Guest: grandma (Brunswick ME)
Date of Stay: 08/07/10 Review Submitted: 08/30/10

"Our family (16 people) is spread geographically from each other. For that reason, every two years we have a family reunion so that the little ones will know their cousins, aunts and uncles. Seahorse Crossing was the perfect house for our multi-generational vacation. The property lived up to and even exceeded the description of both the owner and other guests. Our hosts proved to be amazingly gracious, from the kitchen stocked with almost anything one could need, to the extras they provided. The private dinner prepared and served by a five star chef was a totally unique and wonderful experience; the food was divine and the man was warm and interesting. The massage therapist was as accommodating as he could be, and all four of us who chose to avail ourselves of his services thought that the massages were top notch. The boat rides were enjoyed by all; we appreciated the opportunity given us by the Smiths at the boat club in Dewey Beach. Seahorse Crossing is tastefully decorated and well maintained. Its layout provides privacy for families and worked really well for us. With the beach,Funland and Rehoboth Avenue a short walk away, even the young children were able to hoof it from the house to the attractions. The property manager, was very responsive whenever we had a question. For that matter, before the trip I bothered the owner with many obssessive questions and he patiently responded to each one. Everything about the house made this the very best reunion property we've rented. We'd enthusiastically recommend it."

Owner response:Thank you, Carol, for your kind words. You were an absolute pleasure to have as our guests, and we hope to have you back with us once again soon! I never felt your questions were out of the ordinary, and sincerely appreciate your attention to detail, and desire to make for the best possible vacation experience for you and your family! You actually helped us inmprove some of the information we present online, and we really appreciate it! Thank you as well for highlighting in your comments the many, varied elements of our vacation offering, so that others may see how we're a little different from the rest in what we offer our guests during their weekly stay, and how we try to go the "extra mile" in making their vacation worry-free, enjoyable, and above all else relaxing.

What a pleasure to stay at 103 Rodney! the hoise was not only beautifully appointed, but spacious and located perfectly to the beach, town and most importantly, Playland! We had a great week weatherwise...not one bad day on the beach. We arrived to an immaculate house with a beautiful flower arrnagement and it set the tone for the rest of our wonderful stay. I would recommend this home to anyone to rent!

Owner response:Thank you for your kinds words "MBC", and for staying with us this year. We look forward to having you back with us again soon, and are pleased that you found our home to be as enjoyable as we try to make it for everyone!

Our week at the beach

Guest: Lorraine (York, PA, USA)
Date of Stay: 07/03/10 Review Submitted: 07/18/10

I just wanted to let you know that we (all 17 of us) had a wonder time at your beautiful home in Rehoboth last week. The weather was great to be at the shore and the house is so conveniently located that we were able to get our exercise - purposely - or not! We appreciated the care and love that went into decorating and caring for the house. We have stayed in many places over the years and yours by far was the cleanest and best accessorized that we have ever encountered. Thank you! Chef Gary was a delight. We not only enjoyed his meal, but him as well. It was truly a treat to have him cook for us and have him there with us for the evening. I think Dieter's massage may have been the best that I have ever had - and he didn't seem to wear out as the day progressed. We had him for the entire day and everyone who availed themselves of his services were very pleased. And last - but not least - your trouble in procuring jet ski services was very much appreciated. The grandkids thought it was the best part of the vacation in fact and can't wait to do it again! We're not sure we can get everyone there next year, but we're going to send our reservation in anyhow. I think if the kids have any say in it, everyone will show! Thanks again for your great attention to detail and your sincere desire to please. It certainly was noticed and appreciated. Sincerely, Lorraine and gang

Owner response:Thank you for your kind words, Lorraine! It was wonderful to have you stay with us, and also our pleasure to make sure that your vacation was a memorable one...suitable for ALL ages. Chef Gary, Dieter, and the Boating Club access are all valuable amenities we think make us unique among Rehoboth vacation rentals, and we are thrilled that you chose to take advantage of everything! We look forward to having you back with us again, and thank you for staying with us at SeaHorse Crossing!

Great Place to Stay for a Large Group of People

Guest: 14GuestsMemorialDay2009 (Norfolk, Virginia)
Date of Stay: 09/05/09 Review Submitted: 10/01/09

A group of 14 of us stayed at SeaHorse Crossing for 4 nights over Memorial Day weekend. It's a great home in a perfect location. Only 1.5 blocks to the beach and 3 or 4 to the main drag with all the shops and restaurants! The front porch is a great place to relax and read a book or have an evening cocktail. There is enough room to get 3 cars in the driveway and there are 2 additional street parking passes if you need them. The home is stocked with every item you could possibly need and then some... from bikes to beach chairs, kitchenware and appliances... This home has it all! Even with 14 of us staying there we never felt on top of each other. The home is well layed out so everyone has their own space. The owner was very hospitable and there were no issues with receiving our deposit back. We did hire Chef Gary from Essential Chef one night for a Birthday dinner and even though it was not included in the stay (because we only stayed 4 nights), it was well worth the extra money. He brought everything and prepared a fabulous dinner for all of us and we didn't have to lift a finger. If we return to Rehoboth again next year I plan on staying at the same location. Thanks for everything!

Owner response:David - Glad you all had a great time...and while I believe you visited us over LABOR Day weekend (rather than Memorial Day), we're glad you were able to relax and enjoy a holiday weekend at Rehoboth allong with our exclusive Private Dining Experience with Chef Gary. We look forward to having you back with us again next year!

Our family has traveled to numerous vacation rental properties over the years, and really had some wonderful experiences, too. But never have we enjoyed our stay so much as our stay this summer at SeaHorse Crossing, our first time there! The location, the condition, the amenities and the decor were all first-class. The home has been impeccably maintained, and is very well managed by an attentive owner, dedicated housekeeping crew, and even comes with a very helpful Property Concierge who was always available to answer questions, deal with whatever issues arose during our stay, and otherwise make our stay as enjoyable as any we've ever experienced! And words cannot explain how much we enjoyed our Private Dining Experience with Chef Gary. What a GREAT idea!!! As the former Executive Chef of the only 5-star restaurant here in the area, Gary was delightful, entertaining, knowledgeable about the area, and prepared us an incredible meal. It was a wonderful celebration of our Mother's 85th birthday, and an evening our entire family will cherish for a long, long time. We look forward to coming back over and over again to stay at SeaHorse Crossing. It was just a three-minute walk to the beach, and the owners even provide a few bikes and a wagon for the little ones (or all that "gear" you need), and a delightful escape from our otherwise harried lives.

Owner response:Thank you for the kind words. We're glad you and your family had a great time .... JUST what we like to hear! Looking forward to welcoming you back to SeaHorse Crossing.

Outstanding family week at the beach!

Our stay at "Sea Horse Crossing" was absolutely wonderful in spite of less than perfect weather. This was our first year at this location, although we have been vacationing annually in Rehoboth Beach with our growing family for 25 years. The house location was perfect for our extended family to enjoy the beach, the town, and just relaxing/playing without going anywhere. The main house was very well equipped, beautifully furnished, well maintained and very comfortable. We appreciated the gorgeous flower arrangement that was sent as a welcome, and there was a helpful person to greet us soon after we arrived to make sure that everything was in order. Several adult members of our group (we were a total of 15 including 13 adults from 80 years young to 22, two infants under 5 months and one 3.5 year old) enjoyed the hot tub and we all enjoyed having the well appointed outdoor space, a great barbecue grill, and a very comfortable and wonderfully furnished screened porch. Chef Gary presented us with a fabulously fresh and very delicious dinner the last night of our stay. It was a perfect way to end our extended family time together - until the next time. We hope to enjoy our annual family week at the beach here again next year!
