About the host

Hosted by Tess Wald

Host profile image
Our family has been in love with Broadkill since 1985. We finally realized our dream come true when we made our first Broadkill purchase in 2004. This house, Beachfront Tranquility, right on the beach, we purchased in 2007 and find it to be the place where you can leave the world behind and truly get away. We love sharing this house with renters who wish to create meaningful and memorable family beach experiences.

Why they chose this property

Water, water, and nature. We love the water. We love watching each day how different the water looks. Hands down. And this property, with its unique location immediately at water's edge is our dream come true. No matter what the weather, there is always something captivating to see out of all the windows. Once we walk through the front door, the rest of the world just fades away and we feel we are at a retreat. Yet, we are so close to lots of stores, restaurants, activities and historic adventures. That's only a glimpse into why we love this property.

What makes this property unique

This house brings me to a state of peace that is unique. I look out at the water, and I know I'm "home". We can see and hear the waves from every room. We are literally right on the beach and water. Our wide, flat, beach is great for all types of beach games. The warm water has a sandy bottom and stays shallow for hundreds of feet; perfect for all ages. Our sunroom, filled with windows, is my private refuge.
