Great place in Dewey!
I want to give this a bad review so it doesn't fill up in the future but I cannot! The place was great! Very clean and new!! The outdoor shower was clutch as most are at the beach. The upstairs deck was awesome as well!

Wonderful Home
We had such a wonderful time last week! The house was beautiful and we would definitely consider staying again!
My family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and well appointed house. We provided some feedback about mold in the showers but otherwise a great vacation. Walked everywhere we wanted to go and short Uber to Rehoboth Beach.

Top deck made the Vacation
This is a top tier vacation rental. The location was ideal, it was very clean and quite spacious. The owners have included many, many household items that make the home comfortable and easy. The rooftop deck is nothing short of amazing: great views and so much added living space.

Family Thanksgiving trip
Enjoyed our November trip to Dewey Beach, the location was great. Not only was it an easy 3 minute walk to the beach, the house had plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 little ones. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, plus there was a grill on the roof top deck with a wonderful view of the ocean and bay. Loved the area, even though it was the ‘off season’ there were still places open and with in easy walking distance. Would highly recommend this place to families looking to enjoy the beach no matter the time of year.

Perfect space and location!!!
Nine ladies spent the weekend here for some time away. This rental would be perfect for a family or two. It was too cold/rainy for the rooftop but I imagine it would be stunning in the right weather conditions.
Close to everything. No noise from the street. Highly recommend.

Beautiful and clean
We loved this house and the amenities included were above and beyond your typical rental. It was incredibly clean and easily met our expectations . The only drawback is the street noise in the middle of the night, particularly on weekends. A garbage truck also began dumpster pickup in the early morning hours on one occasion. Still a lovely place to stay especially if the late night/early morning noise isn’t a bother to you.

Fabulous, well equipped townhome!
This rental was SUPER well-equipped! Everything you need is there. Lots of extras, such as cocktail shaker, Bluetooth speaker, insulated cups and lots of plastic drinkware. Device charging cords were provided at the nightstands next to the 2 queen size beds. View from the roof deck is amazing! Short, one block walk to the beach, and plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and rolling beach carts to transport the above to the beach. We had a great vacation!

Family vacation
Check in process was a bit strange . Arrived at house and the door was open with nobody on site . Confusing parking situation. Called Vicasa and the representative was offsite and offered little help. House was not supper clean + no cleaning supplies at property to touch up. Overall it’s a great property and the location was great . Would definitely return again but just a little frustrated with the things I mentioned. Overall great stay !

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Dirty but great location.
Was not cleaned prior to our 4 pm checkin. Garbage left in all the cans, dirty towels left on floor, beds not made, linens stank and were dirty, food left on tables in refrigerator and on counters. Place needs painted. Given wrong wifi info. Originally responsive to complaints but never came to a resolution. Cleaning people eventually arrived rushed through left dirty bed linens and food. Had to wash bed sheets, blankets and bathroom rug.
Great location and rooftop space thou. Could be a great place.
Sad the experience started the way it did. More frustrating there was no resolution. Free dinner was offered but when we said there was ten of us the communication went silent…

Great getaway
Really enjoyed our stay here. Short walk to the beach and short drive to the shops in Rehobeth. Everything in this home is either brand new or in perfect condition. Very clean. So many little extras were included - linen service, phone chargers, brand new games/puzzles and even keurigs in the two bigger bedrooms. Rooftop deck was an unexpected treat - we sat under the stars and listened to the ocean waves every night. Overall great experience, no complaints!
House was absolutely beautiful with a great floor plan. Gorgeous views and the roof top deck had plenty of furniture
The entire house was done right
Very clean and homeowners and VASCA were extremely accommodating and pleasant to work with. I loved the generous amount of linens and little extras in bathrooms/kitchen. Best stocked kitchen in a rental that I have ever seen. Fantastic location too.
The property was exactly as pictured. It was incredibly well stocked which made for easy prep for our long, Thanksgiving weekend. The location, right off the main road, makes it easy to get to all the surrounding attractions within minutes. The property manager was always available, even over the holiday. They were very responsive in fixing our door when the lock battery needed replaced.
Good location, morden and updated kitchen, very nice roof top.
Overall, it was good vacation rental.
One negative, it could be more cleaner.

Great Stay!
House was overall in line with our expectations. Was well kept, and had a great rooftop patio! It was also very nice having all of the beach chairs, toys, etc already at the house. We also loved not having to pack our own linens and towels!
This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.
We were blown away by the look of this house. The bathrooms and kitchen were very modern and high end! It was less than a block to the beach, restaurants and bars. We could not have asked for a better property! OHHH and sooooo well stocked!
