WE ARE A NON-SMOKING BUILDING!!

Rates quoted are for up to six people with an additional charge of $50.00 per night per person for up to two additional.

PLEASE NOTE: This apartment will only sleep eight people. OCCUPANCY IS STRICTLY ENFORCED. Sorry, I must post this due to a few reservations that understate how many guests and then just have them show up. Overoccupancy places us at risk of losing our rental license.

No Reservation is confirmed until the OWNER receives confirmation of payment from VRBO. There are no refunds for cancellation and "cancel for any reason trip insurance is recommended because we cannot insure your vacation.

Please don't ask us to discount as we have a policy not to discount in fairness to our return guests and those who reserve early and pay the full rate and associated fees.

Our weeks run from Saturday to Saturday during July and August but are flexible the other months we are open with a three-night minimum. We NEVER rent for just one night and only rent for full weeks during July and August unless we have VERY last-minute availability.

Failure to commence tenancy will result in the loss of any money paid and any balance will be due to the owner.
See the online agreement for complete details.

In the event of power outages, loss of cable, internet, appliances, TV failure, or any offered amenity, there will be no reduction in rent. Repair or replacement will be made ASAP.

Please note we have no control over VRBO fees that VRBO will add to the total.

YOU MUST LET US KNOW IF YOU ARE BRINGING A DOG PRIOR TO COMING!! Showing up with a dog without notice will result in doubling the pet fee.

Check-in time is at 4:00 PM (NO EXCEPTIONS). Our cleaners have this window of time to get our apartments ready for the next guest. Late check-out after 10:30 a.m. will result in the charge of an additional day. This extra time is needed to get everything done to ensure your satisfaction. Arriving early will result in additional charges of $100 per hour/partial hour as it makes our cleaners feel they have to hurry which will result in less than expected results.

Now that Covid-19 is not as severe our beds will now again have our beachy comforter sets, pillows, as well as mattress pads. You will need to bring your own linens and towels. We have uploaded our new rental agreement. Since you are accepting this agreement by reserving it, please read it over carefully. Your safety is our main concern, and every effort is being made to make your stay as comfortable and worry-free as possible. Linens, blankets, etc can be rented if you don't wish to bring them.

CLEANING: We take pride in offering a very clean nonsmoking apartment and appreciate your care to make sure it stays that way. We have cleaners come in after each guest leaves to make sure everything is ready for the next guest. You are expected to perform normal everyday cleaning, take out the trash, and run the dishwasher, and put the clean dishes away. It is the responsibility of the GUESTS to make sure the apartment is left in the same condition as found. Additional cleaning will be charged additional fees if necessary.

WIRELESS INTERNET is provided by Comcast/Xfinity and is free of charge. While this service is provided it is not guaranteed and we are not responsible should it not be available or for any problems that may occur from its use.

Parking permits are required in the season for any additional vehicles and they MUST park on the street.

4th of July Week
Dell and Larry were such gracious and sweet hosts. We absolutely loved their home and cannot say enough about it. It was very clean and spacious. I think the beds were the most comfortable beds we have ever slept on at the beach and we go away every year. The backyard was so amazing. Our dog loved their dog Mollie and is so sad to be back home. We all enjoyed our stay so much, we didn’t want to leave. You can’t beat the location as well. All of our friends are now fighting over who is going to rent it next time. We are so happy that we made lifelong friends with Dell and Larry as well.

We had a great time!
We loved this beach property. It was roomy and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. The big fenced in backyard was fantastic and it was great to have since we brought our dog. The owners were so friendly and responsive. The beach was just a short walk away. We enjoyed many early morning and evening walks on the beach at times when dogs are allowed.

Excellent beach option
We had an excellent stay here for a family trip. There are certain things that could be done to make the house better*, but overall it met our needs. The location can’t be beat and we would come back. The backyard area was also fabulous. *It’s got a lot of extra decor, fake plants, and furniture that take up space needlessly and make moving in our stuff for an extended stay (with babies) a bit of a pain. There was also a large stain on the living room wall that looks like mold but might just be water damage or old wallpaper glue. Regardless, a little Killz and paint and it would not have been a second thought for us when we started getting a little stuffy. Small rugs/mats could use to be washed. Communication was great and we had a nice time.

Great Beach House
We had a great week! The owners were very nice, and the house was just right for us. It had everything we needed. We were on the first floor. It has a huge fenced in backyard, which was great for the dogs, and relaxing. It was just a short walk to the beach and town.

Spacious home and friendly hosts
I rented this home for a Memorial Day weekend vacation for my family. Despite the rain on most days, we enjoyed our stay. The home had enough space for all of us to gather for meals and games, and there was also space to enjoy time alone if desired. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home from day one.

Best Beach Vacation Ever
Dell and Larry are wonderful hosts. Apt A was perfect for the 6 of us and our 2 dogs. The yard is huge with tables and chairs, outdoor showers, horseshoes, a big fire pit, gorgeous flowers and comfy cushions on the deck. Very clean with comfy beds. Great kitchen with everything you need. New washer/dryer! We didn’t want to leave, and can’t wait to return again. The beach is so close and we walked or uber’d to great restaurants. This home-away-from-home was like finding a pearl in an oyster!

Amazing location - SO close to the beach, amazing hospitality from the on-site hosts, amazing backyard for campfires and cookouts. Didn't give it a 5 only because not newest of facilities, but well-maintained, nevertheless. Very glad we stayed there - would like to do so again.

This is a great house, in a perfect location and very close to the beach! The house is larger and more spacious than the pictures make it look, which was great.

Super comfortable, Fun, Well maintained, An absolute gem
We stayed here on Memorial Day Weekend 2017 and it exceeded every expectation we had. It was right on the beach and in the center of dewey, right near all the restaurants, shops, and bars. The apartment itself was cozy and so nicely decorated. The real treat was the backyard, which featured two powerful outdoor showers, a campfire pit, and three gas grills. We were able to have a little mini barbecue and everything! The landlords are absolutely excellent, very respectful of privacy but right upstairs if you need anything. They even helped us get a fire started. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a great place for your next beach vacation!

Great vacation stay!
I stayed with a group of friends at this beautiful Dewey home over Memorial Day Weekend. It was absolutely beautiful and only steps from the beach. The house was clean, spacious and our hosts were very kind. The backyard is definitely the best part of the house. It's very spacious, has an awesome fire-pit, mosquito torches, benches, grills, and more. Great for a weekend barbecue. The bedrooms are small but clean and very nice. The kitchen is renovated. Most important, the house is only steps from restaurants and bars in Dewey. I'd go back in a second. Fun fact: Dell is the former mayor of Dewey Beach, DE!
