We enjoyed our time in Sea Del. Great location. Great house. Lots of chairs and beach accessories. Owner is very responsive to messages.

We had a wonderful weekend at the beach house. It was suited for everyone ranging from 15 mos- 82 yrs. I stayed in the downstairs suite, and enjoyed the few moments to steal some quiet time. The house was clean, and the hospitality was top notch. We will rent again!

This property has everything you need for a great vacation in Bethany Beach. Plenty of room, a well equipped kithchen, spacious screened-in outdoor areas and lots of beach equipment for the short walk to a beautiful uncrowded beach. Our host Lance quickly responded to our questions and was very helpful. A perfect place for a family vacation.

Loved the expanded deck. Enjoyed all our meals in the screened in area. House clean and comfortable. Can’t beat the beach access. Looking forward to next year.

This is our 2nd time renting this beach house and it really fits our family. It is clean and updated. We would like to reserve it again for next year (August 5th-12th, 2023. Thank you again for a wonderful week of family bonding.

We loved this beach house- just a quick walk up the ramp to the private and minimally populated beach! This home provided numerous indoor and outdoor small and large spaces to gather or separate. The screened porch with comfy furniture was always in use The numerous umbrellas, chairs and coolers, plus the exceptional gorilla pull wagon to tote it all, made for easy beach runs. Leaving your gear for a few hours break back to the house was no issue in this private gated community. A great place with a responsive host!

We enjoyed our stay! The house was in a great location. We enjoyed the outdoor screened in deck. Plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas and a wagon to pull everything to the beach. Owner was quick to respond when contacted.

Wonderful week! Wonderful location! So many items you supplied that we didn’t need to bring with us-that was an enormous help!!!! Thank You Lance!

We loved the quiet, clean beaches as well as quiet, small development. Our 2 young grandchildren were with us and it was very easy to get to the beach. The house is very comfortable and nicely decorated with lots of covered and open porch space that we enjoyed. There were a few minor maintenance issues; the owner was very responsive to our calls and had service arranged quickly.

Three generations thoroughly enjoyed our 10-day stay at Lance's Bethany Beach property. It was, as described, an easy walk to the beach, and in a well-appointed small community (with excellent landscaping). While it was not quite as large as I'd imagined, the photos were all accurate as was the description. And it accommodated all of us very comfortably. [The downstairs "suite" was perfect for our son and his family, but there is no inside access to that lower level] As earlier reviews have noted, it backs up to Route 1, the Coastal Hwy, so we expected traffic noise, but we quickly adapted to it as if it were *white noise* - The newly screened in side porch (away from hwy-side) was our favorite place to hang out - together or, occasionally, individually. We made many trips to Hocker's (grocery & more), 1.7 miles inland, 7 minute drive. Funland (in Rehoboth) is still the same - 60 years after opening, and just the same as our son remembered from his last visit there 25 years ago. Great to introduce a new generation to the low-key FUN there on a rainy morning. Lance was very responsive when at first I was unable to connect to wifi (it was my problem - browser on laptop) Otherwise, we had no reason to contact him.

Even the weather cooperated. Looking forward to next year.

Our family had a great stay at Bethany. The private beach had lots of space and other families that were a joy to meet. The house was clean and as advertised. A little noisy outside in the evening due to proximity to the road, but not unbearable. Overall we had a memorable vacation and would return in a heartbeat. The owner was responsive and provided detailed instruction and recommended good spots for dining and shopping etc.

The house worked well for our group of 14. Nice neighborhood with easy access to the beach and particularly over the dune for the grandparents. The community tennis court was perfect for family tennis matches (pickleball too). Highway noise was not an issue inside the house. We opted to use air mattresses instead of the sleeper sofas. We would rent the house again.

Property is as advertised, clean, and very nice. Property owner is very responsive and accommodating. No issues, highly recommend.

Overall experience was good but as it's next to the highway it's very noisy especially during the night time. Once things which could be improved is putting extra bath supplies like bath tissues .

We stayed at this cottage the last week of September with our two small children. We were looking for a getaway during COVID and this was the perfect spot. The house is located in a private beach access neighborhood. It is a short walk and they have a wagon to haul everything. We had so much space on the beach- sometimes it seemed like the only people even on the beach! The neighborhood was clean, safe and had a very small playground ( but enough to keep my kids entertained between activities). The house itself was more than enough space for us. We loved the open space in the kitchen, living room, dining room. We could make dinner while the children played. There was also a screened in porch which was a wonderful spot to have the children read and play for a change of scenery.The house has everything we needed in the kitchen, bedroom and laundry room ( but you do bring your own linens!) As other reviews mentioned the knives are not that sharp but it didn't bother us. Cons: As other reviews mentioned, the traffic is very loud ( this cottage is right near a highway), but we knew this going in and it was no problem on the owners part. We are from the city originally so we brought our sound machines for the children ( they slept pretty good) and I used my phone for white noise. There are also a lot of spiders and bugs on the porches and underneath the house (by the hammocks, etc.) Again this is no problem on the owners part...it is a beach town near shrubbery so it is just part of the deal! Lastly we did not even use the basement apartment so can't speak on the musk others spoke of. We had a wonderful week! Gorgeous weather, lots of space for our family and easy access to playgrounds (John west is 5-10 mins down the road & great!!)

My family and I went to celebrate my graduation and could not have had a better time! Lance is the best! He responded immediately....He was very helpful and accommodating! When we walked in the house it felt like home. We had everything we needed. The outside spaces were great! The wrap around deck was a treat! The downstairs suite was also a wonderful addition to the house. The beach in walking distance was amazing! My family and I were completely satisfied!

The pictures of the beach house did not match what we walked into. The kitchen cabinets had to be cleaned before putting our food in them. The floors were dirty by evidence of our 7 month old granddaughter crawling on them. The showers floors had not been cleaned..mildew in the corners. The lower living room, bedroom had a horrific moldy musty smell that was covered up by strong chemicals. I was embarrassed to have my son daughter in law stay down there. The house was on Route 1 hugh mistake on us the traffic noise all day/night did not make for good sleeping. And it was bike week in OC our mistake for not knowing that. If you are a family wanting a quite clean environment this is not the house for you. Very disappointed!

This was a very nice property, well equipped, with lots of space to spread out. The community was lovely with a nearby playground and an easy 5-minute walk to the beach. An added bonus for our extended family was the fenced space under the house where the grill and showers were located. It was a great play area for the 5 small children in our group. The owner provided a wagon and plenty of beach equipment, which was another plus. The only down side for us was the damp lower level with a very musty odor. (The previous week of rain didn't help.) Also the sun room -- if used as the fifth bedroom -- is very bright and noisy in the morning so not great for sleeping. But it was another nice play area for children. The owner was attentive and responsive at all times and very pleasant to work with. We appreciated his hospitality!

Very happy ! The house is well stocked- kitchen could probably use another cutting board but other than that it had everything we needed , more than enough pillows and blankets - Games, cards and books available-TVs, wifi and Netflix! Owner easily accessible and responsive. Having beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, and wagon available made it all so easy- Gas grill a plus but there is also a charcoal grill available. Can't wait for next summer

Close to the beach. The house was well equipped with cooking necessities as well as beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, etc.) Outdoor shower was a great amenity.
