Beautiful house in a quiet rural location.

Nice place to stay. possibly come back again. close to the Bay Beach area for Delaware. everything worked fine. My grandson made three new friends. Beach area was not crowded. Nice quiet neighborhood. It would have been nice to have an indoor stairway going down to the game room I think I ran out of room have an indoor stairway going to the game

Great property with everything one would need for a relaxing week at the beach. Beds were comfortable, clean, everything worked well and felt fresh. Directions and instructions were clear. Outdoor shower was wonderful to have. Fire pit, grill/deck, screened porch—all added to the space. Everyone (5 adults and 2 kids) had their nooks and crannies to retreat to when needed. We wanted to avoid the schlepping, traffic and commercialization at some of the other beaches and tried Broadkill this year. Really glad we did and this house was the perfect spot. It was a 2 minute walk to the beach. Could easily walk back and grab a beverage or take a break from the heat, eat lunch and head back out to the beach chair to nap without packing coolers when we didn’t feel like to. Everyone loved it and no one wanted to leave. The beach itself was not crowded and very clean. There were some biting flies which we anticipated but with a little OFF spray, we were fine. We were really spoiled being so close to the beach and feeling like it was all ours. Some days it seemed like an hour would go by before we would see someone else walk by our set up. Still close enough to go into lewes, rehoboth or milton for dinner/groceries. General store at the end of the block was wonderful for some ice cream and the best homemade donuts I’ve ever had. Put your order in for pick up on saturday morning when you have to check out as they soften the blow of vacation ending. Hope to be back next summer.

We are an older company and this rental was extremely thought out in all areas. All amenities were top notch and anything you possibly could need, other than linens and towels, were there. The decor just captures a beach vacation, very well appointed. The home was very clean and each space was set up for comfort and convenience. Several Pine trees surround the property, therefore a bit of pine needles do make ground level a little messy, however, my doggie didn’t want to leave, completely safe and great respite for the owners. Definitely give it a 10 and would definitely rebook. Thanks for the fun setting!!!!!!!!!!

Location to the beach is great! The house was clean and welcoming and great for the dogs. We will be back!

My family and I had a great Spring Break at Manatee Manor. It was quiet and peaceful, not too far from nearby towns and pretty much right on the beach. I loved the decor, although the living room couch and chair could use updating/ back support. My 2 young girls loved all the kid activities that were there, especially the game room, basketball hoop, magnet tiles and large legos. It was fun to just be able to walk up to the beach with our dog several times a day since it was right there. We cooked and ate most of our meals there and the kitchen had all of the supplies we needed. We did go into Milton, Lewes and Rehoboth several times, which were not too far away. Our small dog loved the fenced in yard as did we, but be careful of the gate where the bars are just slightly further apart than the rest of the fence; our dog snuck out but thankfully we we were right there and we discovered the large Connect 4 set was a good barrier for this 😋 I would definitely come back to Broadkill Beach and consider staying at Manatee Manor again ☺️

We arrived Sunday, very excited about our stay until we realized an east coast storm, with high winds, and coastal flooding was going to spoil anytime sitting at the beach. However the home was comfortable, warm, and equip with everything we could need. If we get the chance to stay there again, we will! Our only bummer was that the basement was not accessible from the upstairs, but out teen was happy feeling like they had their own little apartment. The decor was stunning, and the home was beyond clean. The gated yard was a big help for us as we had our two dogs.

Access to beachfront (delaware bay) was awesome! Neighborhood quiet & safe ! Remember to bring sheets & towells, we missed that on the listing. Needed to buy paper towells & sponges - just minor things like that - otherwise no big problems at all. Overall really good trip & affordable. Ideal to be able to be that close to the water.
