Great vacation spot

We had a great time. It was so close to the beach and restaurants. The pool was a nice spot too. The condo is not large but had all the necessities. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck and watching the boats on the canal.

My husband and I loved it. Just as advertised. Central to downtown Lewes and the beach. We spent a lot of our time in Lewes at the condo just enjoying the view from our balcony. Everything we needed was there. Why go anywhere else. Access was simple and comms with the manager (and Sheets on the Beach) wasprompt and complete making our settling in and departure a breeze. Will not even consider another rental next time.

Great Lewes stay

We had a wonderful stay at this well-located condo! Being right on the canal made for lovely slow mornings on the balcony and easy walks into downtown. The unit was perfect for our family of three — spacious enough, with a well-equipped kitchen for preparing breakfast and lunch. We appreciated having two bedrooms, a pull-out couch, and both an en-suite and a second full bathroom, which made things very convenient. While we didn’t use the pool, it’s a great added bonus for anyone looking to take a refreshing dip. Highly recommend!

This is a nice little apartment in a great location with a pleasant view. Kitchen and family room have been nicely renovated and while the bathrooms are old and worn, they were clean and functional. Easy walk to the little town of Lewes or bike through Cape Henlopen Park or even to Rehoboth Beach. Enjoyed our stay!

Great canal-side condo!

We really enjoyed our stay at this newly-remodeled canal side condo in Lewes. The many pros include: gorgeous views, nice kitchen, comfy beds, pool access, and the great location-walking distance to both town and the beach. There were some inconveniences, including the absence of a dining table, lack of shelves in the showers, insufficient places to dry towels/clothes, and the fact that we needed to provide linens (I felt this should be explicitly stated in the listing). Nevertheless, we had a great stay at this property and would consider booking again.

We have been coming to this area (Slaughter Beach, Broadkill Beach, Cape Henopen, Lewes Beach) for about 15 years now. Hands down, this place was our favorite! We loved being able to walk over the bridge to restaurants, shops, and ice cream. My husband was super close to walk to bait store. The pool was awesome and the view from pool and patio amazing! The apt was recently updated. We loved hanging outside on patio. Neighbors were super friendly. We hope to return! Oh, and Andrea was super accommodating with our check in!

It's small and simple, but comfortable with a deck overlooking the canal and a great view of the sunset. It would have been helpful if the owner had told us that we needed to bring towels, sheets, and even soap.

Perfect Lewes base camp!

Loved this place! So relaxing to soak up the breezes and watch the boats and sunset from deck right off canal; so convenient to walk to canal-fronts restaurants, boat trips, bike rentals, downtown restaurants and shops! Rode our bikes and ran to beach, ferry, state park! Andrea was amazing and helped us get a partial refund when we had to leave early due to sickness in the family. We had everything we needed for a wonderful Lewes escape!

Perfect Location!

Easy check in. Unit was clean and well stocked. Peaceful balcony with great views. Comfortable bedding. Walking distance to two excellent restaurants. Beach approximately 5-6 blocks walking. Ideal for 4 persons. Short driving distance to many restaurants and abundant shopping. Stay at laid back Lewes and reach all the excitement you need in minutes. Andrea was an excellent host and is adding the only thing that is missing. A TV! Thank you Andrea for a delightful stay. Ken.

Loved the balcony.

This was a sweet location on the marina/waterway. The balcony was a lovely spot to spend our early mornings and evenings. During a rainstorm we were undercover and even that was quite lovely. This Home has some sweet features and cute interior design, but it could use some bathroom updates, the musty smell should be addressed and a very deep cleaning would be helpful. host was responsive, and the on site property manager was very responsive and very resourceful in getting a locked door in the storage closet open. The new pool was not available for our stay, but it is very close to being opened and would be a great addition to a stay at this property if we would choose to return.

Really great getaway

This is the second time we’ve stayed here. We both love that it’s right on the marina a few blocks from the beach, and an extremely short walk into town. The new deck is fantastic, and it’s just a cozy little place to relax

About the host

I was born and raised in Delaware and have always loved the charm of Lewes. I love trying all of the different restaurants, shops and attractions the town has to offer!

Why they chose this property

The views and the access to downtown! No need to worry about parking on second street - just a short walk over the bridge and you’re there!

What makes this property unique

You can’t beat the views from the deck - watching the boats go by and listening to the sounds of downtown Lewes from the serene and peaceful side of the canal is the perfect getaway.
