About Roy Low
How we found the Delaware Beaches: Like most people, our family discovered Bethany Beach and Sea Colony through word of mouth. Our first trip a Delaware beach town was to Rehoboth, not Bethany, because we thought we wanted the excitement of a big beach and boardwalk.
Roy Low purchased this Townhome in 2002
Why Roy Low chose Bethany Beach
Why we chose Bethany Beach: We did not fully anticipate the crowded beach and hectic pace of Rehoboth. Fortunately, the following year we were introduced to Sea Colony and Bethany Beach. Bethany has everything the bigger towns have, just a little less....less crowded, less hectic, less stress = More quality time.
What makes this Townhome unique
Why Sea Colony instead of a private house: What a difference! A private beach with an outdoor pool just a few steps away, friendly crowds that are not overwhelming, bicycle rides with little or no traffic. We could play tennis, swim at the pool, and sun at the beach in the same morning.....We realized we did not need a big town for our vacation, just quality time among caring people and families looking to relax, just like us.

Sea colony and Bethany beach is family time at its best!!!
The Property was well located and convenient for our use as we walked to the fitness center and indoor pool. Although interior was somewhat dated, the floor plan layout of the unit worked well for seven of us. We always enjoy sea colony visits and time on the beach no matter what the weather is doing. We look forward to another visit this summer.
Thanks for visiting. I'm glad your group was comfortable and I agree that the location is ideally suited to walk to the fitness center and pool. I look forward to hosting your family again in the future. Roy
Quiet beach weekend
Great stay gorgeous weather!!
Family Vacation
We returned for a 2nd year because of the great time we enjoyed the previous year. Again, our experience was outstanding. The owner is very gracious and incredibly accommodating; the property is beautiful; the location is outstanding. We especially enjoyed being within a few minutes walk of the outdoor lap pool and fitness center. Thank you!! for another incredible vacation!!!!
Tim....Thank You for taking the time to review Sea Colony and our vacation rental. I have been quite fortunate to meet and welcome so many families that choose to return season after season. I take that responsibility as an owner seriously. Whether it is providing linens, laundry, child safety equipment or beach chairs, I will always do my best to give them the rental experience they all deserve. Thank you again for selecting our rental from the many vacation choices available to you. Roy
Everything you need and more
This house was wonderful for a family with young children (or anyone for that matter). Everything you need is there--from beach chairs/umbrellas to kids toys to board games to kitchen/laundry supplies and more. The owner Roy went out of his way to accommodate us and could not have been a more gracious host. He was always accessible and replied within minutes to questions. The property was super convenient--the Sea Colony tram stop was steps from the house. And the extras for little kids--such as bedrails and a gate at the top of the stairs--made the trip extra easy. I look forward to staying here again!
Thank you Francine for the kind review.... I am glad you took advantage of the bed rails and gate. I hope that these family and child friendly touches made the stay more comfortable. I encourage my guests to ask questions before and during the visit so that I can help you get the most out of Sea Colony and Bethany Beach. I look forward to hosting your family in the future.....Roy
Great place for families!
We had a terrific time at Roy's property. He was responsive and attentive all through the planning process. This property was perfect for our two families, who had small children. This place is really set up for families with young children. The toys, chess set, baby gates, pack n play, beach chairs, etc., were soooo convenient. The only reason it's not getting 5 stars is because of the reasons that it was perfect for our family. It's simply a little more lived in than some of the fancier places. The only "feedback" I would provide is that the gas was a little low in the gas range in the kitchen (but yay, gas!), and (probably as a result of the number of renters), kitchen items were a little difficult to find. They were all there but were in counter-intuitive locations - Ha! Anyway, we really enjoyed our time at Sea Colony and at Roy's house. I would definitely rent here again if we return to Sea Colony. Thanks to Roy for being such a gracious host and for allowing us to the opportunity to stay in his home!
Kate, Thanks for your review. I truly appreciate the honest feedback. I set out to make our rental family-centric and truly comfortable for children first and parents next. Your observations are spot on. I am happy to say that we host a great deal of families from March through October and many of the items at the home get a great deal of use. That often leads to some confusion when one family puts something away in a different spot that another family expects. I hope that my focus on providing amenities for kids keep my littlest guests entertained and the beach chairs and margarita machine keep the parents relaxed! Thank you again for your review! Roy
Perfect house and location for a family!
Roy's home is perfect! Perfect location (tram stop right outside the door, walking distance to a pool, and walking distance to a park for little kids). His home was beyond expectations for our family! It had everything we needed plus extra bonuses such as toys, games, tons of movies, pack n play, high chair, bed railings for younger kids, gates for younger kids, all bedding and bath towels were provided. His home had everything needed for the beach too - chairs, umbrella, sand toys. We enjoyed every minute of our vacation and can't wait to come back next year! Roy was easy to communicate with, very nice and always available if needed. All you need is your swimsuits and beach towels! Thanks for sharing your home!
Christina....Thank you for the kind words. It is especially gratifying to me that you were able to take advantage of the extras that we provide for kids! I truly believe that a great family vacation starts with comfortable and happy kids! I look forward to hosting your family on your next visit to Bethany Beach....Roy
