Nicest place we have ever stayed.
10.0 / 10.0
Our big group of family & friends loved this house. Beach is so close I went every morning to watch the sunrise.
Plenty of space inside the house for big groups to gather but also for privacy & for individuals to work remotely.
We enjoyed big dinners by the pool and 2-3 daily visits to the beach, which is essentially in the backyard it’s so close. We walked to the nearby grocery for excellent produce & deli sandwiches. Easy quick drive to Rebobeth for excellent restaurants. And ice cream & some restaurants within walking distance.
We appreciated that property manager responded immediately when we had a problem with the lock on the pool gate.
We liked that our dog was welcome. The house was so welcoming & enjoyable that we already haved booked a return visit

We enjoyed our stay immensely and the home was roomy, beautifully decorated with a fantastic pool. Great for family and very convenient to beach, restaurants and shops. Cannot wait to go back.

This place is wonderful! Location made nearly everything walking distance. Lovely new renovations. The pool was a welcome respite from the soaring heat. The home has been very well maintained. Being pet friendly allowed us to be with our fur babies on vacay: absolutely loved that! A repeat for sure!

Everyone enjoys being at a pool over the beach except the youngest who are into sandcastles. Thus this was a perfect choice. The house floor plan allowed for different activities to occur. We all felt the front enclosed porch was a perfect place for leaving beach equipment and our shoes in order to keep the house neat and clean. Second floor addition was amazing and the house decor made it inviting.

Spent 3 nights here over Memorial Day weekend and it was a blast. Perfect location to beach and walking distance to the restaurants/bars around Dewey.
One change would be to have bed sheets and towels provided for the stay.

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with a week at this amazing home with our 3 kids, their spouses and 4 grands. The home was better than we imagined. Lots of room for people to spread out. The pool was the best. Very well designed for little ones. One end was steps from side to side, and there was a shallow ledge that circled the whole pool. Lots of outdoor space. Would highly recommend

Our family spent Christmas at this wonderful property. Best house ever. Layout was great and it was in great condition. Was decorated beautifully. They even decorated it for Christmas for us. Steps away from Main Street and the beach. Could not have asked for better. Looking forward to coming back!

Great home! Absolutely beautiful. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space yet cozy enough to comfortable play games and socialize. We will definitely stay again.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The layout worked well for accommodating multiple couples with bedrooms and individual bathrooms -- as well as nice spacious common areas. We loved being so close to the beach, where we walked, tossed a frisbee and admired the view. We hope to return soon!

We spent a week at the beach with three generations of family and had a great time! House was steps to the beach and perfect for us.

House was very clean and exactly as described. We would not hesitate to go back again. We had one small issue with the gas grill by the pool which was broken and discovered Sunday night. We notified Jordan, the Property Manager, that night and she had a new grill delivered the next day. Great customer service!

We had a great stay. The house is beautiful, clean, and large enough to accomodate multiple families. We loved the outdoor spaces and how close it was to the beach. We had a small issue with the upstairs air condition but the property manager was able to help remedy the issue by the next morning.
Highly recommend. We would love to return.

This property was even more beautiful than the pictures suggest. The house was spotless and well equipped. The location was only a minutes walk to the beach. Because we were there the first week of March, we were not able to use the pool or the outdoor decks and porches. Even still, the house was perfect and we can't wait to return. The beds were super comfortable and there was plenty of room to spread out. The owners really put a lot of thought into the layout and furnishings. We had one small issue with the TV's not being logged into YouTube, Jordan responded immediately and sent someone over to fix it. Great property and communication. thank you!!

We stayed at the property for 5 days, 13 family members ages 8-79. The pool is a big hit, proximity to beach is great with walkability to dining. House was comfortable for adults and children to spend time in groups as well as all together.

My family really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful beach home. Plenty of space. Plenty of beds and baths and a great pool. This place is not only warm and inviting, it’s just a short walk to the beach to enjoy magnificent sunrises and sunsets. We will return.

Lovely home with several areas to enjoy relaxing outside. When not on the beach we were on the upper deck. Spacious with a view of the ocean. The interior is thoughtfully designed and decorated. We so enjoyed our stay.

Perfect location and amenities!
This home is in an unbelievable location, half a block from the beach and within 2 blocks of several great restaurants. It has all the amenities you need, plus several big bonus ones like TVs in most bedrooms an outdoor living/dining room and a beautiful pool! You can easily walk to the bay for kayaking and to the boardwalk for all the attractions there. We rarely moved our cars. All six of us, from the 4 year old to the 74 year old, wants to come back again soon.

Great Getaway
Our overall experience at 14 Swedes St in Dewey Beach was awesome. The location 1/2 block from the ocean, and the pool in the backyard was a grand slam. There were a few minor items, like needing a couple of light bulbs and fixing the shower handle but they were handled immediately and professionally by Jordan Walsh, the Property Manager. She was great!!! I will admit that I was a little concerned with 8 of us in a home that was 1,400 sq ft but it was no problem at all!! Plenty of room and so well stocked with supplies that we didn’t need to bring many of the items we brought. This was our first experience renting a home for my daughters and their families and it was just so positive. My only wish is that there was less traffic to and from, but that’s out of our control. Great Getaway!!

Great stay for a group
This was the perfect property for our vacation. Super close to the beach (which was never crowded and had a lifeguard right there), fantastic pool (the heating came in extra handy with the cold Memorial day weekend!), cozy quarters, comfy beds. Everything was clean and worked great. We will definitely recommend this place, and hope to stay here again.

Dewey beach gem :)
So close to beach, relaxing sun porch, roof porch with ocean views, comfy beds and the most amazing bonus - a private pool! My kids don’t want to leave and neither do we :). Special thanks to property manager, Jordan, for truly making us feel welcome and understood. One final thing - I LOVE how quiet it is here! You would think with houses so close together it would be loud but the noise ordinance is greatly respected and it was very much appreciated, especially since we’re doing virtual school and working virtually as well.
We would love to come back soon :)

House was great and as described- not huge but well stocked, immaculate and great layout. We went with our adult kids and had a great time. the yard was great for the dogs. Would definitely go back

We wanted to get away for spring break and this was perfect. The location is near everything in Dewey Beach, a short walk to the beach entrance. We chose it because of proximity to the beach and dog friendly fenced yard and were not disappointed! We were able to take the dogs and kids to beach whenever the weather permitted. The pool was heated to a very comfortable temperature and while the outside temps were too cool in the evenings/nights for the pool, the kids took full advantage during the day. The kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans/utensils and the stove is a dream! Thinking I might need to replace my home stove now after using this one. Lots of sleeping options and all beds were quite comfortable.Lots of comfy sitting options around the house and outside. We would happily rent again in the future.

Quick getaway to the beach! The owner & Jordan were accommodating.
Our family of 6 & our 5 month old Lab really enjoyed staying at your cozy beach house, just a few steps from the beach!
It was an impromptu, much needed getaway, 1st time over a year since the pandemic began.
The house is adorable, the beds were comfortable, loved the updated bathrooms! Only thing that was disappointing for my kids was since the weather had been quite cold the past few weeks, the pool was unable to be heated and used. But we still enjoyed the backyard, the blue pool was quite relaxing to look at. :-) we would definitely stay again. Thank you for being accommodating and working with us!
Thanks, Neeta S.

Very clean, updated beach home in an excellent location. We rented in February so the pool was closed, but great back yard for the puppy play. Would definitely rent here again.

Can’t beat location!
We stayed off-season in this adorable beach house during Covid while we were able to WFH/SFH. The location is pretty much perfect, walkable to Rehoboth, right next to all of Dewey’s restaurants and bars, and a big beautiful stretch of beach is just 5 steps away. House is small but well laid out with 5 bedrooms (comfy beds) and 3 bathrooms. There’s a sweet sun porch and a roof deck along with a large fenced back yard with a pool, plenty of outdoor space to spread out. The property manager is super helpful and easy to work with. You just can’t go wrong renting this house. Happy travels.

great location
Single floor layout very helpful for elderly family members. heated pool a wonderful addition in October, although 8:00pm closing of pool seems way too early. Kitchen was well equipped which was extremely helpful in light of COVID and no dining out. Second frig. on porch was perfect for our needs. Proximity to beach was TERRIFIC! Fenced in yard was great for the dog's quick pee breaks.
