Great location with waterfront views

We enjoyed staying in this peaceful community. The location was perfect for us. We enjoyed the beaches and local restaurants. The rented kayaks provided extra entertainment at the house. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was nice. The property was smaller than we thought it would be, but there was a nice view of the bay. The kids wished there were TV's in the bedrooms.

Good clean get-away

This lovely little house was great for us and our dog. Quiet neighborhood on the water, great for kayaking. The house was VERY clean and well equipped. The owner/ manager was very responsive. Just note 20 minute drive to the beach but we were fine with that.

Another great stay!

This past trip marks our 4th stay at this property! It is always amazing! The cleaning crew does an amazing job and the house is always spotless on arrival. I have noticed that there are always somw changes and upgrades made to the home and property over the years. It is cozy yet spacious enough for myself,spouse, our 3 kids, and dog! The neighborhood is wonderful; we love riding our bikes to the community pool and playground. The back deck is my absolute favorite spot as it overlooks the canal and dock- sitting out there with a morning cup of coffee is blissful! We hope to continue to rent this amazing place for future vacations!

Nice house, great location

The location, right by the crabbing dock, is a big plus. Very good for families and family/friend groups. Lots of people walking dogs in the evenings, so is a pet friendly community. Message to the overall community: The name of the location is problematic. The "Angola" in "Angola by the Bay" is a reference to the country from which the people who were once enslaved at this location came from. Yes, you read that right. Basically celebrating that human beings were once held here as chattel by force. It's 2021. To change that does not erase history; it erases what is, in my view, a celebration of something terrible that occurred here. Funding this offensive doesn't make someone a "snowflake". So, please show sensitivity and respect for people of color and change the name to something that is not offensive, thanks.

Family Getaway

Went to Delaware to visit family, and rented this property due to its location. We were minutes from Rehoboth Beach and boardwalk, and from everything you could possibly need or want! The property was clean and well-equipped, although there was an unpleasant smell in the master bedroom, which is why the 4 stars for cleanliness. Also, I really had no need to communicate with host during our stay. Checking in and out could not have been easier! We loved the crabbing dock just a short walk from the back! We had a great time here and would definitely return.

Perfect Sanctuary

Have vacationed in Rehoboth for over 20 years and this was my first stay a bit away from the beach. It was perfect. Right on the water within minutes from all the action. With all the calm of a gated community full of amenities. My family loved it and we will return soon.

A cozy place with a wonderful view

The place is on the water front and has a fantastic view from the back porch. The host responds quickly and is very accommodating. The house does have the capacity of 7 berths — 2 queen beds and a bunk bed with lower full-size bed — but the bedrooms are rather small and the living room and kitchen both have limited space. If you plan on traveling in a group bigger than 4, please consider this space limitations. The master en-suite bathroom had a nice and huge tub, but unfortunately it didn’t have shower, so the three of us shared one shower in the hall bathroom during our stay. Overall the place offered a nice, relaxing home base for my family of three to spend a lovely weekend together.

Angola by the bay

Property was exactly what we were looking for, very nice, quiet community with all the amenities and easy launch for our kayaks. Our dog loved the trails through the community. Melissa was a fantastic hostess and quickly responded to any questions we had. Would love to stay there again. We were sad to leave!
