Beautiful home on Rehobeth Bay with private beach and dock. Neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance to all of the Dewey attractions. I would recommend this home for your family vacation.
4.8
It has an amazing view, both from porch and master bedroom. A private beach is key - but place is a very short walk to ocean beach. Great restaurants and bars are walkable. Rebobeth Beach is a short and easy drive. Very nice place!

We will definitely be making this an annual family vacation. Usually by the end of a trip I’m ready to go home, but after 5 nights I still didn’t want to leave. The adults and kids all had a blast, and we didn’t even have to leave the property to do it. Thanks, Janie!

Beautiful and well-maintained property near everything. Already hoping for a stay next year.
4.8
We brought our two girls under two and had a great time. The little beach was perfect for young kids, there was a playground a block away, and Janie was a great host and pulled out the pack ‘n play for us. We’ll be back!
4.8
We had such a great stay in Dewey! Janie our host was responsive and kind. The location is ideal—close enough to the beach without the crowds and noise but accessible to all our favorite spots. It has fantastic views of the bay and we enjoyed watching the sunsets from the screened it porch. Can’t imagine a better VRBO in the Rehoboth-Dewey area.

We stayed at Janie's place as two families with an infant and two 4 year olds. The location is perfect, just far enough off the main strip that it wasn't too loud but an easy walk to great restaurants and the beach, and then an easy trolley to Funland for the kids. The private beach within Snug Harbor also can't be beat - perfect spot for the kids to play after dinner while the parents enjoyed a glass of wine and watched the sunset!
A few things to be mindful of are that the 4th "bedroom" is immediately off the living room/kitchen so, if you were planning to use that for a younger child, it may not work for you. There are also a lot of stairs (one of which is a spiral to the primary bedroom) and pack and plays will only fit in two of the three main bedrooms.
Overall, Janie was an incredibly responsive and accommodating host and the place was clean, neighbors were respectful, and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Janie!

Had a wonderful impromptu getaway. We weren’t sure if we wanted to be closer to the ocean or on the bay. Hands down the screened in porch to hang out and watch the bay with our coffee and the sunset while playing games was absolutely what we wanted. The home had everything we were looking for/needed inside. Only thing that was awkward for us was having to bring towels and linens- I’ve never been requested to do that and had to find some xl twin sheets via friends. We are already making plans for our next trip !
The owner was fantastic and easy to work with!
4.8
Really nice location overlooking the water. Watched sunsets everynight. House was very comfortable and was fully stocked with necessities and kitchen equipment.
Can't wait to stay there again!

I’ve stay at a lot of different places in Dewey and this is probably the best one yet. Great location, quiet neighborhood, and the best view of the bay. Highly recommend this place, you won’t be disappointed!
4.8
The view from the screened in porch is everything!!
We stayed several nights with two other couples and had a lovely time. It’s close to the beach, on the bay with its own little beach, and the views are fantastic. It was clean and had two parking spaces (we got a third parking space from the “town of Dewey” kiosk for the third couples car and those spots (green spots) were right across from the condo.
Walking distance to all restaurants in Dewey (we loved Starboard Raw the most) and just a great weekend!
4.8
The property was ideally situated on the bay side with a private beach which made it great for our 6 1/2 year old granddaughter and my disa bled wife. It was only a few blocks down the street to the ocean and the beaches there. It was a really relaxing stay.
4.8
Had a wonderful time. Place was great. Great location wonderful host. Look forward to doing it again.
4.8
First time staying in Dewey and it was quieter than we thought. Great location and a quick walk to a lot of restaurants and bands. Easy for teen to hop on the Jolly Trolly at the end of the street and take it to Rehoboth. Couldn’t beat the views and just an overall wonderful family spot!
4.8
Great location on the bay with a short walk to the ocean. Dewey is a great town and would stay again!
4.8
What a perfect place to stay for a weekend at Dewey Beach! We loved the screened in porch and private beach. Would definitely stay here again!
4.8
We had a great stay on our first trip staying in Dewey Beach. We loved the location of this property and enjoyed being able to walk everywhere. The property had everything we needed. Loved it!!
4.8
Great host that was super responsive and accommodating. The home is as advertised and the private beach is a huge plus.
4.8
Owner was great, very responsive which helped with planning. We stayed for a quick weekend getaway, which included grandparents, young adults and a teen. The location was great. It offered something for everyone to do (together or solo). The screened porch was a bonus as the view was breathtaking. Everyone jockeyed for a spot out there, lol. Good times for all and we hope to return for a longer stay in the near future.
4.8
A lovely home and location to enjoy Dewey Beach! Everything you need and more. Loved the views, loved the sandy beach area to watch the boats and gorgeous sky. Sunsets are magnificent. The host was most hospitable and ensure everything was just right for us. We would love to return again!
4.8
Amazing views of Rehoboth Bay. Updated condo but it should advertise the spiral stairs to the master bedroom. Hard to get up and down although the master was lovely.
4.8
The condo is very nice, all the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen is very updated and well stocked. The view is amazing and the bay beach out back is beautiful. We loved watching the sunsets! The master bedroom upstairs is gorgeous with lovely views and the bedroom with the twin beds is very spacious and bright. We especially loved that we could walk to Dewey Beach to see the ocean every morning and play in the waves. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
4.8
We had a great time staying here. The view of the bay was spectacular and the townhouse was just the right size and well maintained. We are planning on coming back next year!
4.8
Owner was very responsive & easy to communicate with, we had an issue with the stove breaker upon arrival, but it was an easy fix. Other than a few scuff marks on the wall behind the headboard in the master bedroom, the only item of concern was the smoke detectors have been taken out of the walls. We understand we were the 1st renters of 2023 & things can be overlooked. It was a great location, we would stay here again.
4.8
My wife and I stayed at snug harbor and would absolutely do it again. The views are beautiful, especially from the upstairs master bedroom which almost makes you feel like your on top of the bay. The sunsets were amazing from the private beach and dock. Communication with the owner was quick and easy and you can tell they really take care of the whole complex, which consisted of about 8 units. Our unit was probably not ideal if you have very young children or elderly guests who struggle with steps(Outdoor steps up to the door and spiral staircase to the master) however there are ground floor rentals too that would give you access to all snug harbor had to offer.
4.8
I stayed here with my 6 year old, husband, and friends with a 3 year old. Had a great time and loved waking up to the sight and the sound of the bay in the morning. Very comfortable!
4.8
Each year we travel from the Philly area to Dewey for an extended weekend getaway. We have such a great time in Dewey/Rehobeth and this year was no different! The place we stayed at was all that was advertised and more! Thx so much for the opportunity!
4.8
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful property! Inside was recently renovated, aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. We would go to the beach in the mornings, and spend the evenings on the screened in patio overlooking the water (and bay beach area where our kids were playing). It was the right balance to all of our needs! We had a minor issue with a fuse, and the owner was attentive and helped to resolve the issue quickly. We loved our time, wish it had been longer, and hope to be back soon!

There were 8 of us from Oklahoma visiting my youngest son who just moved to Rehoboth and we were only 10 minutes from his house which was nice. We were able to push the 2 twin beds together to accommodate one couple and my son and his 2 year old son slept on the couch and pull out sofa in the living room.
Bringing linens was kind of a hassle but we kept the washer and dryer busy cleaning out beach towels that would also double as bath towels.
My grandson loved catching crabs on the deck and he could have just done this the entire time! But he loved the beachtoo and it is an easy walk across a busy street but has a crosswalk and light so no problem getting to and from.
Thankful for 2 parking passes but we had 3 cars so had to buy another pass and do some moving of cars but no big deal and police station is just around the corner.
My only reason for the 4 stars on cleanliness is the Washer had some grime in the drum, I did clean it but would recommend you run some vinegar through for a deep cleaning. Also, the sliding door needs some cleaning, it's hard to open and close.
We had the upstairs master suite which was wonderful and the beds were all very comfy!
Thank you for a wonderful week!

Always a pleasant stay and a beautiful place

My family of 5 + a rotating guest or 2 stayed for a repeat 2-week July trip and enjoyed it just as much as last year. The whole condo Bldg was raised up about 5 feet over the winter, presumably to deter future flood concerns. Still the same great screened porch and sunsets. Not too far from the beach. Very conscientious owner. We hope to be back again next year!

Great Dewey experience
4.8
The owner was so helpful in details. She also gave me excellent recommendations for restaurants.
It was a great 4 nights! Weather was great, location is excellent. We enjoyed the lovely porch morning and evening with the beautiful sunset. The beach is just across the road from us. Everything was weighing walking distance! Home has everything we needed. Just take your towels and bed sheets.
I hope we will be back next June👍
4.8
This lovely unit was clean, comfortable and felt like a home away from home. The view was spectacular and we spent much of our time on the screened porch. An easy walk to the beach or just step outside the door to the bay. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and we couldn’t have had a more perfect weekend. Thank you Janie for hosting us!

Nice beach condo. Easy walk to ocean, restaurants, stores. Very clean and well kept. Would definitely return.

The location, views, and amenities were just perfect. The house was so clean, beautifully decorated, beds were very comfortable and it was perfect for a getaway. Would love to go back in the future!

Our group of 6 had a terrific stay at this 2nd floor condo overlooking beautiful Rehoboth Bay. The terrific bay view and nice apartment far outweighed the minor quirks (1 small closet total in the 3 BRs) and a limited, difficult TV system. We would definitely rent this property again.
4.8
Hey had a great week at this property. More than enough room for my family. The sunsets alone made it worth the stay .
4.8
Awesome location, near all the bars and restaurants and on a private beach shared with the neighbors below.
4.8
The home is beautiful and well kept. The beds are super comfortable as noted in other reviews. This is an upstairs condo in small gated complex. The small private beach area is perfect for small kids who want to play in sand but families who want to avoid the crowded public beach. The water is shallow and there are all sorts of blue crabs and horseshoe crabs to watch swimming by. Also, there is a lovely playground only a block away that was a wonderful place to take the kids when not at the beach. Just FYI that I had to message the owner for check in info rather that receiving it via the normal vrbo check in email (she’s super responsive!) and also the bar a block away on the water blasts music at night. Thankfully there was a sound machine in the kids room! Otherwise the perfect getaway for our family with everything we needed. Thanks for the lovely stay!
