This has got to be the best place to stay in Bethany Beach! The hosts (Rick and Cathy) are PHENOMENAL! The property is flawless and clean. The location is stellar and the nights in the deck are memorable. I will definitely return, if they will have me!

Wonderful vacation memories made here

Beautiful location and lovely home. Rick and Cathy very responsive to any questions. So much to do in this area. Relaxing on the decks in the morning and evenings was perfect. Very quiet location considering how many units there. Only bit on the downside all bedrooms other than master are very small but we didn’t seem to mind after we settled in. Living area is very spacious and comfortable. Kitchen wonderful. Views are amazing. Thanks Rick and Cathy !!

Awesome family vacation!

It was such a wonderful experience staying in Rick and Cathy's rental home! Our family of 6 and one dog vacationed here and the space was more than enough. The home is beautiful, well appointed, and completely stocked with everything that you could possibly need to make yourself comfortable during a beach vacation stay. The house is in a lovely marina community on the bay and residents were welcome. The beach is not too far, but on those days that you don't want to drive to the beach, you can easily walk a few steps to the pool. We enjoyed EVERYTHING about the home. Rick and Cathy were also great to work with. They were very responsive to my communication. I would recommend everything about this listing and hope to return again!

A hidden gem

This was our first visit to beautiful Bethany Beach, and I can’t imagine staying anywhere else. The Marina is tucked away on a lovely little outlet with lots of birds and plants. Our kids really enjoyed the community pool. The townhome was immaculate. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. You can tell this place is loved year round, and the owners really care about the guest experience. From the decor, to the beach and water gear, to the well stocked kitchen essentials…nothing was left out! I loved enjoying my morning coffee on one of 3 decks overlooking the marina, and the kids enjoyed the many games and puzzles the owners provided. This is a must see. If you’re on the fence, just book it! The joke of our trip was “everything is 7 minutes away!”

Bethany Marina community is a very good location, with travel times to many popular activities of less than 30 minutes: the beaches, kayaking, shopping, restaurants. This townhouse was perfect for our family with the lower floor for the couple with a dog and one year old baby; the common middle level for kitchen and social, and upper level bedrooms. The decks give a nice view of the marina docks, and Indian River Bay.

Wonderful townhouse on the water

This property was clean, well decorated and located in a great marina community right on the bay. We enjoyed kayaking, swimming in the community pool, and playing board games on the deck. It's a great location to visit Bethany, Rehoboth, and Fenwick.

Great location

This vacation rental was close to restaurants, grocery stores, liquor stores and the beach. The addition of the water view was a plus. On the 3 rd floor balcony I could watch the sun rise. Having 3 separate floors helped to give everyone their space. We would love to come back. We will need to find a larger home next near to accommodate another son and family.

Fantastic Time Again

This was our 4th time staying in this property. Its so comfortable and accommodations are just as described. We had a few shut-in days due to the weather but it was still great. So much space and plenty of rooms/ decks for “me time”. The area is great as well. Supermarket less than 5 minutes away. Owner is very reliable and open to communication from time of booking to checkout. I would highly recommend it.
