We loved our stay at Vitamin Sea! We were 3 families and there was plenty of room. It was quiet, but close to everything we wanted to do. The kids loved the bay. There were horseshoe crabs and other wildlife galore that the kids had a blast identifying. It was a 1 minute drive to Cape Henlopen state park. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

About the host

Hosted by Erin M.

Host profile image
We live in Annapolis, Maryland, with our two boys but love escaping to Lewes, DE. We love curating what we like in a rental home—clean, comfortable and convenient.

Why they chose this property

The Cape Shores community offers a private beach, pool, fishing pier, and tennis courts. The quiet of Lewes Bay is perfect for relaxing, and the ocean is right around the corner if you want more surf.

What makes this property unique

We love the open concept, spread-out bedrooms, and natural light. The back of the house overlooks the pond, which offers year-round serenity. The rental is our second home—we take great pride in the furnishings and cleaning of the home. The home is rented from May to October, giving it the rest of the year to rest and reset.

We are committed to a top-notch experience.
