Can’t say enough great things about this property. Location is in a really nice quiet community, easily accessible to everything including the Rehoboth boardwalk (10 min. drive). Booking was very easy and owner is extremely responsive. The property is amazing, fantastic common space, a great separate porch as an additional gathering area, tons of space and fantastic amenities. The kitchen is extremely well equipped, and the whole place had everything we needed and more. It was impeccably clean and the beds are SUPER comfortable. The only negative is that we couldn’t stay longer! Highly, highly recommend, we will definitely return next year!!

The condo was lovely and had everything you could possibly need. Felt like we were at home. The owner was so great. He checked with me a couple of times to see if we had any questions or concerns and was quick to respond to my inquiries. Location was perfect also, close to everything. Don't think twice, rent it!

Fabulous beach getaway

We had an excellent stay at the condo this past week. It was very well equipped and had the most comfortable mattresses we’ve ever slept on in a rental! Our teenagers loved the arcade games. The owner was very communicative and shared tips for different features of the condo. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

This was a wonderful stay! Host is awesome, very accommodating and communicative. Condo is clean and well stocked! If you forget something, chances are he has thought of it and it’s in one of the closets. The arcade was a sweet touch and our kids enjoyed it. Condo is a short drive to all the attractions. Our family of 5 was very happy!

Upon arriving to the home we were taken away on how beautiful the home was! It had everything we needed and more! Everything in the home worked perfectly and we were so grateful and comfortable that we didn’t want to leave! Even the teenagers loved it! The home is certainly located so that there is easy access to everything!! This definitely is a home we would love to come back to!!! Thank you!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Charles Pappas

Host profile image
My family bought this condo back in 1997 to serve as a vacation spot and my parents retirement home. Between 2011-2012 both my parents passed away. My wife and I have 4 kids from college age down to high school that keep us busy at home so we decided to share our vacation home with others by renting it to other families like yours.

Why they chose this property

Coastal luxury, classic charm, and comfort all in one—welcome to your perfect Lewes escape.

This bright, beautifully furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo in the exclusive Plantations community offers a quiet, upscale retreat just minutes from Delaware’s best beaches, boardwalks, shopping, and dining. Whether you're traveling as a couple, a family, or a small group of friends, this home-away-from-home is thoughtfully designed to make your stay both memorable and relaxing.

Set in a peaceful, gated subdivision surrounded by mature landscaping and scenic walking paths, this second-floor unit has everything you need to settle in and enjoy the good life by the sea.

What makes this property unique

I try hard every year to make improvements to make your stay more enjoyable. Classic Arcade machine was added this year bringing hours of enjoyment for those of all ages.
