We had a wonderful time at Beach Blessed. The house is beautiful and well equipped and right on the water. We had fun kayaking, playing pickleball at the local park and walking on the beach. While there is not much around the house, shopping, restaurants, state parks, etc, are within a 20-30 minute drive. We highly recommend this home for your vacation.

Great family getaway

Our family loved staying at Bay Blessed! Joel and Tina are great hosts. They answered all our questions and provided special touches to make our stay enjoyable. We enjoyed being right on the bay and spent many hours by the water and taking strolls on the beach. The kayaks, bikes, sand toys, beach chairs and umbrellas were an added blessing to our stay. The large kitchen, dining area and living room we great for our family to be together, play games and cook meals. We loved all the porches and decks too. We highly recommend Bay Blessed to others! Thank you, Joel and Tina, for sharing your home with us!

We were in the area for sports tournaments and extended our stay for a little family vacation. This was a great location. Very family friendly and beautiful views! Kayaks were fun for all ages! We loved being steps away from the beach.

We love the setting right at the beach. The house is extremely comfortable with enough space, bedrooms and living space to fit in easily 9 people. We love the screened in porch. We loved the nature center close by which should be promoted more.

Beautiful and relaxing week at Bay Blessed beachhouse

Our family enjoyed a relaxing week at the beach. The weather was absolutely perfect and we enjoyed just about every sunrise and sunset, most of them from the great porch and deck areas. The host was extremely accommodating and made the entire process easy, and provided lots of good tips for things to do in the area.

Perfect for a long stroll on the beach

We very much enjoyed our October stay. The house is very comfortable and meals on the porch overlooking the water were super. The sunrise and moon rises were spectacular. But my favorite part of the stay was the availability of the beach for daily strolls. The beach runs for a couple of miles along the national wildlife refuge and is perfect for long secluded strolls. And lastly the owner of the house (Tina) was very pleasant to coordinate the trip with.

Excellent place to stay. Great house right on the beach. Very clean, it surpassed our expectations .

Absolutely a great place for families with kids of all ages. Right on the beach. Screened in porch which was a great addition to this house. Nature center close by where the kids got a fishing lesson and got to know more about horse shoe crabs. Overall we will be back next year. Great communication with the owner. Great biking and walking the beach.

Great beach family getaway

This was our second year staying at Bay Blessed. This is an ideal spot to please kids and adults alike. Being only steps away from the beach allowed the kids to play close to the house and pop inside for a snack or relax and watch a movie. Adults can walk the beach or hang out surf fishing. There are also some other great beaches nearby such as Beach Plum Island and Cape Henlopen. There are a lot of nearby shoppes and restaurants. You can do as little or as much as you want staying at Bay Blessed! Definitely recommend for a great vacation!

perfect secluded beach house

this is the perfect beach house if you are looking for a quiet house on the beach. we had the whole beach to ourselves and there weren’t any noisy neighbors (there are houses all along the beach but i think most are lived in by locals). just a short drive into town (15 minutes) and only 30 minutes to the busier areas (rehoboth beach and ferry to cape may) if you want to sightsee. check in and out was super easy. couldn’t have asked for a better vacation spot!

Fantastic Stay at Bay Blessed

We had such a wonderful time staying at Bay Blessed. The house was clean and comfortable, the views from the porch for both sunrise and sunset were fantastic, and we enjoyed the quiet location on the beach. We had two young kids with us and we enjoyed the nearby playground and pickleball courts as well as the nature center. Had a fire on the beach one of the nights, which was fantastic! Dinner and games on the screened in porch every night with a view of the sun setting over the wildlife preserve was unmatched! Good for future guests to know that this is not really a swimming beach (very rocky and the water is shallow and murky), so you'll want to pack up and drive to other beaches to swim. We loved Savannah beach, Cape Henlopen state park beach, and Deauville beach (north of rehobeth).

Beautiful Bay Blessed!

Spacious house with plenty of room for our family to relax together and have time to ourselves too. Everything we needed was there including kitchen supplies, kayaks, chairs, even some firewood! The views were truly beautiful and we enjoyed the natural beach and collecting shells along the water. It is more of a beach for walking along and kayaking instead of swimming, but still very nice to be outside. Definitely bring bug spray the biting flies are out if the wind is blowing towards the East. Easy to get to Lewes or a bit farther to Rehobeth, we appreciated the recommendation for ice cream at Hopkins Farm Dairy! We also enjoyed biking down to the nature center and learning about all the wildlife. A wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Tina

Host profile image
Hello,
We're Joel and Tina. Joel is a property investor and Tina recently retired from her job as an elementary school teacher. We have two grown sons, beautiful daughters-in-love and 4 precious grandchildren! Joel's hobbies include fishing and jet skiing. Tina loves to go to yard sales! We both love to travel and spend quality time with our family and friends. We absolutely love it when you tell us a bit about yourself when you book!

Why they chose this property

We live in Pennsylvania but grew up visiting the beaches in Delaware and Maryland. When a friend invited us to stay in his beach house in Slaughter Beach, we knew we'd found our ideal beach town. We love the peacefulness of this quiet beach town where we can sleep with the windows open and listen to the waves crashing but have all of the boardwalk fun just a short drive away. We're so grateful to be blessed with this beach house that we can enjoy vacations with all of our family and friends together in one place. We hope that you get to make some precious memories here as well!

What makes this property unique

One fun feature of the beach house that we absolutely love is gazing at the stars from the rooftop deck. We never knew there were so many stars until we climbed up there for the first time! The rooftop deck also offers amazing daytime views of the entire town. For Tina's 50th birthday, her dad built her the cool lifeguard chair that overlooks the beach. It's the ideal spot for sitting alone or with a friend and watching the waves lap over the beach. The "big, comfy couch" in the upstairs master bedroom is a fun place to gather everyone for movie nights. It also doubles as a great place for an afternoon nap! When you visit, you'll notice that there are always ships directly in front of the house. That's because the beach house overlooks a direct shipping route to ports to the north. It's fun to grab a pair of binoculars (provided) to read the names of the ships passing by. While you have those binoculars, be sure to check out the osprey nest on the west side of the house in the nature preserve. Then, after all of that napping and nature watching, beach campfires can be a fun way to end a perfect day!
