Seagate 18 is a three story townhouse about a 5 min walk from the beach. There is *no* water view, it is ocean block. The photos make it seem like the pool is outside the house, but it's a walk of about 3 min.
There is a lot of room, it is nice to have a bathroom on every floor for showering after being on the beach. There is no hose or faucet at the house to rinse off, however. You must rinse off at the main Seagate hose/shower down by the pool.
We had a lot of trouble with the gate locks. The code did not work for us at all. There is an interior path through the Seagate property to access the tennis courts and pool that you can use to skip these gates, but there's no information on this path unless you ask. From house 18, you cross the parking lot and turn right on to a sidewalk with slate paving stones. We thought it was for the houses over there, but it takes you to the tennis court and pool.
To use the tennis court, there is an online sign up genius form. Ask the property owner for the link.
The pools are really nice, warm and clean. BUT they are only open from 10-10, and the lifeguard will ask you to stop boisterous play. No jumping in, no wild splashing, etc. Our kids are ages 10, 13, and 15 and found ways to have fun that didn't violate the rules.
The beach shack will set up chairs and umbrellas for you for free. (don't forget to tip!!) The umbrellas go away at 5, but with the code you can keep the chairs longer. You can buy snacks and hot dogs from the shack.
The dryer did not work for us. The dishwasher was finicky but worked.
Convenient to East of Maui for renting boogie boards, also convenient to a farm market for fresh produce. Both are within walking distance.
The property is a short drive from Rehoboth.
The wifi was good, the courtyard was a nice place to relax.
We did not use any of the extra perks offered through Xplorie. Beach yoga wasn't within walking distance, the bike shop wasn't renting, the board sports were down on bayside in Dewey.
The property owner was very responsive to our questions and requests.
