About this property

Adorable 2BR/2BA Beach Cottage with Separate 1BR/1BA Cottage

Wouldn't it be nice for you to stay at a cottage that is a two-minute walk to the beach? You can find that if you stay at Calypso Cottage. You can hear the sound of the waves as you relax on the front patios' Adirondack chairs.
Calypso Cottage is unique in that it will offer you privacy when traveling with friends or extended family by having a second cottage on the property.
You enter into the main cottage by way of the bright, comfortable sunroom. As you enter, there is a great space to store your extra ice chests and coolers. From the sunroom, you enter into the main living area that encompasses the kitchen, dining, and living room. A small hallway gives you access to a full bath, a Master bedroom on the left and a twin bedroom on the right. The Master Bedroom will give you a queen bed and a full private bath. When you walk into the twin room you have a closet to hang your clothes and a trundle bed where you can pull out a second twin bed.
Walking out the back door, you follow the deck around to the side door of the cottage. You pass by a refreshing outdoor hot/cold shower where you can wash off the sand and sea from the day's outing.
You enter the second cottage through a small foyer, into a full bath, that leads to a spacious bedroom with a queen bed.
When you need to have some private time to yourself this cottage is a retreat. You have your own mini-frig, sink, and coffee pot for your use.
A small shed stores items to make your beach adventure more enjoyable. There are beach chairs, an umbrella, beach toys, a wagon and firewood available for your use.

Visit DE
Nice and clean house, steps to beach for a visit with grandkids. Loved the separate cottage like in-law suite. Allowed some down time and privacy. Location was a short drive to Lewis, DE and perfect for nature lovers. The step down to the beach is a bit washed out, just have to watch your steps. However there is a public entrance a few blocks away and a small store to grab ice cream and a sandwiches.

Amazing in the Off-Season
My partner, my roommate, and I stayed here for a week with our fur babies in early October. It was everything we were hoping for and expecting. The weather was still perfect for lazy beach days. The property was perfect for us, especially as a couple with a friend. The separate suite was so nice for us to have privacy but still be able to come together as a group when we wanted to. I love the beach here, it’s quiet and cozy and great for fur family members. Lots of dog centric locals who weren’t bothered by friendly greetings from my wet and sandy Aussie. The house was incredibly clean, perfectly outfitted with all the necessities, all the modern touches, but still retaining all the retro charm you could ask for. Nannette was super communicative, incredibly responsive and available, and the keyless check in was a breeze. 10/10 we will absolutely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Nannette Jones

Host profile image
I grew up in Milton, and spent most of the summer months on the beaches in Lewes and Cape Helopen. My husband, a native born Delawarian, first learned to love the water and beaches through our travels and then by learning to fish on the shores of Cape Helopen. We both agreed that we wanted a get-away place with a view of the sand and the sea. Not wanting to have to travel to far, we decided to buy a place in Delaware. We hope you will enjoy Calypso Cottage as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Calypso Cottage is a cute cottage that almost fronts Broadkill beach. Broadkill Beach is a long strip of land with Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge on one side and the Delaware bay on the other. Because it is basically one road, with a dead end at the north and south, it is a very chill and private beach, worlds away from Rehoboth or Dewey. At the entrance to the Broadkill neighborhood is the Broadkill Store which sells the basics for a beach vacation.

What makes this property unique

Calypso Cottage has two cottages on the property, the main cottage and then the back cottage that has its own ambiance and privacy for extended family or friends.
