About this property

Rehoboth Beach 6 BR In-Town Dog Friendly~Walk Everywhere ~Made Beds Included!

We started renting our Philadelphia Street home in 2012. We then used it as a family for several years, and now we are opening it up for rent in the summer of 2025 for a limited period. We will update our calendar as soon as we have our family's schedule. We will also add/update first floor photos as it is undergoing some facelifts this winter.

Our rental rate INCLUDES made beds, towels, and cleaning!

Pack your swimsuit, sunscreen, and come to the beach! We offer everything you need, from beach chairs and boogie boards, to premium toiletries, upgraded bed linens, bath towels and beach towels. We know that you expect pampering while on vacation, and we strive to provide the extra touches that set us apart from the rest!

This is our second home; lovingly decorated in a colorful coastal-style with our favorites including Lilly Pulitzer and other premium cotton bedding, reclining chairs, and comfortable sofas. We are located just over 2 blocks to the famous boardwalk and beach, and 2 blocks to Rehoboth Avenue, the center of town. You can park your car in our 3-car driveway, and put the keys away until it's time to go home. Rehoboth Beach is home to over 100 restaurants and unique shopping within walking distance of Philadelphia Street.

Our spacious 15' X 20' screened porch with a ceiling fan is perfect for your morning coffee, dining al fresco, curling up with a book, playing board games at the table, or enjoying an afternoon of frozen blended drinks and appetizers.

Our kitchen is equipped with fun dishes and serving pieces in addition to every utensil, pan, or griddle your creative cook needs, and we have a Weber gas grill outside.

Dining: Please note that our dining seats 8 in kitchen area. Our porch seats 6. If you all dine at home, you will be split up.

The home has hardwoods and ceramic tile throughout.

We are dog friendly! We welcome one well-behaved housebroken adult doggie when you visit (owner approval and pet fee applies). We have a crate and bed for your convenience, as well as leashes and bowls to borrow, a jar of treats for our canine guests, and flashlights for your late night walks. You and your pooch will enjoy the roomy yard with a rear privacy fence and side/front 3-4 ft fence.

Our posted rates include normal departure cleaning and linens (bed, bath, beach). We use our home, and it is well-maintained. We also provide laundry detergent, dishwasher tabs, dish soap, hand soap, toiletries in the baths, TP and paper towels for your stay (not just starters). In the kitchen you will find aluminum foil, baggies, saran wrap, and all the convenience items you use to pack for your stay at the beach.

If you have any questions about our home, please contact us. We love our home and look forward to welcoming you to our cottage family. Our family has owned this home since 2008, and kitchen/baths were renovated in 2018, and new appliances/refresh for 2025.

Cleaning: We have consistently received 5-star reviews at this property as well as the property we sold on Laurel Street. Our cleaner has been with us for 7 years, never disappoints, and needs the full alloted time to clean, so we cannot assist with early arrivals or late departures.

Please note: if you plan to bring any animals, please include that information in your inquiry, as well as the number of guests. Our maximum occupancy is 12, and all ages count in our occupancy. Our price and amenities are for a maximum of 12 guests (age 2 and up) and 3 cars.

Reserve: 1/2 due at booking, balance due 60 days prior to arrival. $1,000 security deposit is fully refundable if no damage. There are no guaranteed refunds for cancellation. We refund only if we re-book at same rate, minus $300 cancellation fee. Please refer to contract regarding our cancellation policy and recommendation for trip insurance for those who require a refund if they cancel.

Feel free to contact me to verify availability and updates to our calendar.

Beautiful Home-Away-From-Home in Rehoboth

Wonderful place to hang with the family. Well situated in Rehoboth Beach. Blocks from the beach and even closer to the main drag and all the stores and restaurants. Lovely owners in a beautifully maintain home. Would stay again at this pet-friendly hide-away in a heartbeat!

Bliss!!

Wow, we were so impressed with this rental. It is so charming, perfect location, nicely decorated, loads of space and they have everything you could possibly need to cook, clean, beach, relax. Cris is a generous, responsive and overall great owner. Couldn't have had a better time and can't wait to re-rent!

Every convenience (even ones we didn't know we needed). Perfect location. Quiet. Nicely appointed home. The owner aimed to please and certainly did. You will be happy if you rent this gorgeous place for your Rehoboth Beach vacation.

Charming Beach Home Close to Beach

My husband & I (and first-time traveler dog) had a delightful time staying at this home in early June. Resting on a quiet tree-lined street, it is an easy walk to center of town and to beach. House decor was lovely, with 'beach-y' touches everywhere! There was plenty of living space and different rooms to relax in -- our favorite was the large screened-in porch. Owners thought of EVERYTHING a renter could want. Can't wait to return!

Great Location ... A Hiden Gem!

This is a wonderful property! Very clean, organized, and decorated with fine taste. The location is perfect. It it is situated on a quiet tree lined street where we enjoyed the screened in deck more than anything. It is only a short distance to not only main street, but the ocean (for us and our dog!) You will not go wrong with this property. The owners are very kind and very easy to work with. Looking forward to another visit soon!

Beautiful home with a great location

What a lovely home! We loved our stay here. Everything was thoughtfully provided, and the instructions for check-in and check-out were clear and thorough. The bedrooms and bathrooms were generously sized. It's nice to have multiple living room areas, and I was especially thrilled to find I could watch HBO. The porch is spacious, and is a perfect place for a meal or a good book. We loved being so close to the boardwalk, and to Rehoboth Avenue's shops and restaurants. We'd love to stay here again.

Exactly what we wanted!

This is a beautiful beach home that is close to everything-Rehoboth Avenue and the boardwalk, the beach and so many good restaurants. We took our car out only once. Cris is so accommodating and easy to work with. The house is so comfortable and beautifully decorated. We loved that it was pet-friendly too! There are so many thoughtful touches, including leashes, pet bowls and even a crate! We have already booked our next stay.

Modern, clean, well-equipped Beach House

The house was excellent. This was our 3rd trip to Rehoboth and this house was clearly the best vacation home. The house it clean, modern, well-maintained, and in excellent condition. It has high quality appliances, clean and spacious bathrooms, and bedrooms and beds are also very of high quality. The patio is very large and well-furnished. It is a perfect spot to relax. The house is amazingly well-equipped with high quality beach items (chairs, umbrellas, towels, toys, boards, etc.). Also, dog toys, treats, and beds were provided. The extra effort makes huge difference. It is a wonderful place to stay in Rehoboth.

Perfect Vacation Home

We found this house on VRBO two years ago and it looked very nice and was pet friendly so we booked. Well it is the perfect vacation beach house. The minute we walked in the door we fell in love with the house. It is decorated with a designer flare with so much character of the beach. You can park your car and walk everywhere and there is a large parking area in front so you don't need street parking passes. The large screened in porch easily became our favorite place to hang out. This home is the cleanest rental we ever have had. The owners are pet lovers as you will see by the bowls, treats, leashes for your beloved dog. The owners have supplied everything you need for a stress free vacation, including beach chairs and even beach toys for children. We are returning next summer for our third year . I would definitely recommend this rental for a great vacation in Rohoboth !

Polar Bear Plungers

We have been staying at this home for the past several years over Polar Bear weekend in Rehoboth. Home is within walkable distance to all activities at the beach. Cris has the home beautifully decorated and very welcoming. It truly is a home away from home. Every amenity you need including items for very young children and pets is included. Kitchen is also well stocked with appliances. We will be back in 2018.

Beautiful cottage, close walk to downtown.

Had a great stay mid winter in this lovely house. Very comfortable and well decorated cottage. Close walk to everything. Loved that the home is dog-friendly. Owners were very helpful with advise on restaurants and the house is well appointed with everything anyone might need for a stay. (So appreciated the heads up on what type of coffee maker was in the house--always a worry for us coffee addicts! Thanks). Very clean, very well maintained.

Amazing Home, Location can't be beat!

This was such a special vacation for us, made all the better by staying at this property! It was our first time traveling as a family(2 adults and 3 children) to Delaware and we couldn't have been happier with the accommodations. The home was bright and cheerful, and the owners thought of everything. We so appreciated having the use of the beach cart, cooler, chairs, sand toys, and of course the boogie boards! The home was clean, well maintained...you can tell the owners take great pride in their home. The location was PERFECT...a close walk to the beach, Funland, and the main boardwalk, yet tucked away in a QUIET neighborhood. We did not need to drive anywhere, except for a trip to the grocery store and to Ocean City one evening. Throughout our trip we kept commenting on how we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. We hope this was just the first of many trips that we will be taking to Delaware, and each time we would be fortunate to stay here!

Great house, great location!

Last week my family and I were in this lovely house in Rehoboth. Even though the pictures in VRBO make the place look nice, it is even more beautiful and spacious in person! The decorating is flawless and, as mentioned by other reviewers, the owners have provided everything you should need for your beach vacation! In addition to adults, we had two toddlers along... we found the porch was a great spot for all ages to hang out - whether for morning coffee, to still feel like we were "outside" on a couple of cloudy and rainy days we had, for cocktails, or as a makeshift playroom... that is where we spent the most time overall. Location is great, too - you only have to drive if you are heading outside of downtown Rehoboth - otherwise, nearly everything can be walked to if you want to, including the beach. We'd love to come back in the future... thanks for making such a lovely place available!

Beautifully decorated, well maintained, a perfect place to relax and unwind.

The owners have done a wonderful job of making this place feel like a home away from away home. From the beautiful and cozy decor to the perfectly supplied kitchen. There are a ton of "small" things done through out the home that make you feel at home and welcome. Our favorite place was the front porch, even if it was February. We were lucky enough to have 64 degree weather in the middle of February so we were able to enjoy some time just lounging on the porch and soaking up the sunshine. Thanks so much for sharing your home. We will most certainly be back!

Great place to stay

Cris is great to work with throughout the whole process. You are 2 blocks from everything so you can park your car and still get to everything by walking and be a lot less frustrated not having to find parking. The home is beautiful and well appointed with everything needed for a great vacation. That even includes your beach towels, pet supplies and supplies for young children. Books and games also available in the home. She keeps the home modern and clean. This was our fourth time staying here and look to continue doing so for many more years I highly recommend this home.

About the host

Hosted by Cris Cerva

Host profile image
We, the Cerva family, are from Fairfax County, Northern Virginia with 3 young adult kids. All three have worked summer jobs in town, and grown up coming to Rehoboth Beach every summer. Our Rehoboth home is where we relax, slow down, and enjoy the casual Rehoboth Beach lifestyle. We enjoy going to the summer evening concerts, dining in town, chatting on the porch with neighbors, and hanging out on the sectional for a good movie.

Why they chose this property

Our home in the center of town, yet on a quiet street. The awesome and large screened porch is my favorite spot! Rehoboth is dog-friendly, with award-wining restaurants, unique shopping, and entertainment within walking distance. I think anyone can find their "happy place" here!

What makes this property unique

We are one of the first in-town homes to offer made beds and towels for our guests. Our home is ready for you to start vacation upon arrival. No sheets to purchase/pack, and we supply a beach cart, coolers, high back beach chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards. Our 3 living areas easily accommodate our occupancy, and our kitchen table seats 8. We have ample off-street parking for 3 cars. Our central AC cools every room inside the house. The porch has plenty of comfortable seating and dining space for 6 for those who enjoy outdoor time.
