We had 8 adults and one toddler. The 5 bedrooms accommodated us easily and the layout gave us a lot of space, we were not all over each other. The house was well equipped and had a lot of beach “stuff” - chairs, umbrella, wagon, etc.
The house is in a fabulous location, a few blocks away from Rehoboth avenue with a multitude of shops and restaurants. It’s an 8-10 minutes walk to the beach, but it’s an easy walk.
We all had a fabulous week. It didn’t hurt that we had wonderful weather. ☀️

Great house in walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and the beach. The living areas are a good size, very comfortable. The house is clean. The additional kitchen on the second level was great for family that wakes up early (well before the rest of us) and starts the day with coffee. The completely fenced in courtyard was wonderful for the dogs. Communication with Ron was very good. He was very responsive. We all had such a good time and would love to stay there again.

This house is absolutely charming and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, so we were able to cook and clean up with ease. A short walk to the shops on the Avenue and an easy walk up to the beach. Communication with the owner was easy. We had a delightful stay as did our dogs!

House is large enough for the 8 of us, with room to move about. 3 blocks from Boardwalk, walking to restaurants, and only 1 block from Rehoboth Av. Parking for 3 cars plus 2 passes for always available street parking. Though everything was as it should be, it's nice knowing that Ron is always a text away to handle any minor (or, in the unlikely event of something bigger) issue. I highly recommend.

All week we marveled at how proximate to everything this house was and yet the road it is on is so peaceful and lush. We just loved staying here, I think you will too.

What a wonderful property. The pictures don’t do justice to the house itself. The house is perfect - a perfect spot to gather together, but also enough room to have privacy. It’s in greasy condition - easily winning the award for best beds and water pressure in showers of any rental we’ve ever had!
The location was ideal. A private feeling neighborhood that was just a short walk to all the activities. We put the car in the driveway and left it there.
We cannot wait to return!

My wife and I chose 24 Sussex for the proximity to the beach/boardwalk and the fact that pets are permitted and we were not disappointed. The home was beautiful and well equipped with everything needed for some time at the beach. Brand new beach chairs were in the garage and they were used everyday. Corner lot within 100 yards of a wooded area full of trails which were great for the pups. The only communication we had with Ron (owner) was prior to the trip for the access code. There was no need to reach out to him during the trip because everything ran smoothly. If we decide to go back to Rehoboth, 24 Sussex would be out first choice.

vacation June 25 - July 2
We had a pretty nice week. Some of the beach chairs were not in great shape and kept collapsing, but all in all a nice place. Maybe replace some chairs and the beach umbrella. The grill was not clean, but we had brought a grill mat, so that took care of it. My family was surprised bed linen was not included, but I prefer my own, so I didn’t have a complaint about that.

We loved our stay in the Cottage on Sussex! Perfect size for an extended family of 7 (including a 3 year old and a 4-month old) plus dog. Ron is a friendly and attentive host; the house is well organized and equipped for individual and group activities; and the location is close to the beach as well as restaurants, cafes and shops. We are already looking forward to our next stay in summer 2023!

Great hospitality and location
Our vacation wouldn't be completed if we stayed in some other place than the Cottage on Sussex. It was quality vacation. The house was easy to find, it was clean and spacious. Ron was a very kind and generous host who was always available by text, email or phone. Also we were able to take our pup with us and it added to peace and joy of staying in Ron's place. The cottage located close to shopping and entertainment area of Rehoboth. And of course walking distance to the beach. We will love to come back again!

We had the best time during the 2021 Sea Witch Festival. It was the perfect location, very close to all activities. The house had enough rooms and beds to accommodate our 2 families with 5 children combined (and a dog). Highly recommended!

We've rented a number of lovely homes in Rehoboth Beach over the years, but I can't remember any that were as well-appointed as the Cottage on Sussex! It was cozy and clean, a comfortable spot located close to everything. We loved the outdoor patio and appreciated the privacy created by separate sleeping areas. The host was absolutely great to work with - truly welcoming and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay.

Great beach cottage!
We had a great week at the cottage. We went with my 82 year old mother-in-law, 2 daughters with boyfriends and 21 year old son. Lots of space for us to spread out, but then also be together for meals and games. The house was well stocked with everything you can imagine to include pantry items. The location was perfect - quiet but easy walk to beach and center of town. We would definitely stay again! Thank you!!

The property was perfect. It was like being at home. The size allows for all to get together plus provides privacy. We especially liked the open kitchen and the court yard plus having a garage. Loved our stay and hope to return next year.

We’d definitely consider staying here again. Thanks Ron!

Wonderful house and location!
Photographs don’t do the house justice - beautiful property with separate living areas that accommodate multigenerational families from age 2 to 66. Great location just a few minutes from a great selection of restaurants, playgrounds, and the beach! Ron was very responsive and helpful! We hope to return for another visit!!

We stayed at the Cottage to celebrate my 60th birthday. The Cottage exceeded expectations! It is so cute with a perfect floor plan. We had 3 couples and there was enough separation of bedrooms to allow for privacy. The entire Cottage is very well appointed. The location cannot be beat! Ron was very responsive. Would recommend staying at the Cottage without hesitation!!

Ron was very accommodating, flexible, and understanding. This was the perfect house for us and a group of friends. Plenty of rooms, plenty of beds, and plenty of room to be together or in different parts of the house(s). Great outdoor space for grilling and having a late summer bbq. And, it’s centrally located. If we ever have a large group again, I want to stay here. Loved it.
