Thanks for the review and for notifying me about the broken light fixture and the leak from the ice maker. I was able to contact the appliance repairman and replace the light on the ceiling fan. It is very helpful when guests tell me what they find so it can be addressed right away. I'm glad it didn't detract from your visit to Sea Colony and look forward to hosting your family again.

Tom, thank you for choosing our Bethany Beach/Sea Colony vacation rental. I agree that the fitness center is a great amenity. The multi million dollar renovation is a year old and it still feels brand new. You were a terrific guest and I appreciated hearing about the puzzles that your son enjoyed during your stay. Enjoy the rest of Summer and please let me know if you ever need another beach getaway. Warmest Regards, Roy

Bethany Beach Family Vacation

The house was clean with plenty of space and extras to make the week comfortable. Sea Colony was an excellent location with lots of great pools, easy access to the beach with the trams, great sport activities for our teen and college age kids. It was a quiet and scenic neighborhood with trees, landscaping, lakes and walking trails. Very close to the boardwalk, restaurants, mini golf and shops. We really enjoyed our vacation!

This townhome is perfectly located in SeaColony. I found the house to actually be more spacious than the pictures show online.

Amazing stay!

We had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to next year! Roy was responsive, kind, and super easy to work with. The house was perfect and we especially appreciated the wonderful kid items: a large bin of indoor toys, beach toys, toddler bed rails, a high chair, and a pack and play. We loved that linens, towels, and some paper and cleaning supplies were provided. Sea Colony is amazing and we greatly enjoyed the beach, pools, and tennis courts. The off season is a perfect time to go to Bethany. No crowds, beautiful weather, and warm water at the beach. I highly recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Roy Low

Host profile image
How we found the Delaware Beaches: Like most people, our family discovered Bethany Beach and Sea Colony through word of mouth. Our first trip a Delaware beach town was to Rehoboth, not Bethany, because we thought we wanted the excitement of a big beach and boardwalk.

Why they chose this property

Why we chose Bethany Beach: We did not fully anticipate the crowded beach and hectic pace of Rehoboth. Fortunately, the following year we were introduced to Sea Colony and Bethany Beach. Bethany has everything the bigger towns have, just a little less....less crowded, less hectic, less stress = More quality time.

What makes this property unique

Why Sea Colony instead of a private house: What a difference! A private beach with an outdoor pool just a few steps away, friendly crowds that are not overwhelming, bicycle rides with little or no traffic. We could play tennis, swim at the pool, and sun at the beach in the same morning.....We realized we did not need a big town for our vacation, just quality time among caring people and families looking to relax, just like us.
