About this house rental
The house is located half a block from the ocean and only a block away from the start of the boardwalk.
If you want an ornate and Ritzy hotel-like environment, look elsewhere. This house is upgraded with modern conveniences, but it is firstly classic, comfortable, and endearing - conveying an easygoing Rehoboth charm. This is a clean, beautifully constructed home with tall ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors throughout!
Designed with groups in mind, featuring a 30-foot screened-in porch that catches the ocean breezes and a spacious living room featuring ample seating. The dining room comfortably seats eight to ten while the fully equipped kitchen -- with its casual counter seating for four or five- – is perfect for everything from quick breakfasts before the beach to informal family meals. A screened-in back porch adds convenient storage for bikes and beach gear, and the first-floor full bath includes a brand-new shower, washer and dryer, as well as additional space for storage.
The second floor offers a classic center hall surrounded by four bedrooms that comfortably sleep 8 in flexible sleeping arrangements ideal for families or friends traveling together. One and a half-baths are on this second level, and upstairs on the third floor there is one large bedroom with four additional beds.
Throughout the house, in every room. beautifully restored original hardwood floors add a timeless character while quiet window A/C units in every room ensure comfort all summer long.
Outside, a generous backyard is perfect for games like croquet or badminton and an outdoor shower with hot water for rinsing off after the beach. Parking is easy with a private driveway and two included parking passes.
This is classic beach living at its best – a lovely charming home ideally located for a memorable beach vacation.

Lovely house in a great location. Close to the beach and the boardwalk. The screened in porch was a hit with all. The host was so helpful and kind. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Perfect family residence. We liked the screened in porch. Great location. Easy parking. Excellent communications with the owner. All in all, high value for our money.

We recently stayed at this beach house and unfortunately wouldn’t return, primarily due to cleanliness issues and a misleading bathroom situation.The listing claims there are two full bathrooms, but that’s a stretch. In reality, there’s only one proper full bath inside the house—on the second floor. The so-called second “full bath” is actually a toilet in the laundry room (no A/C, very cramped), plus an outdoor shower located on the side of the house. One of the bedrooms has an “ensuite,” but it’s literally just a toilet in a closet. These separate elements do not add up to a second full bathroom, especially for a house advertised as sleeping 12–14 guests. Having only one true shower indoors created a daily bottleneck and was a major inconvenience.The house itself is dated and could use a refresh. While we were told we couldn’t check in early due to cleaning, we arrived to find chips under the living room table and sticky residue on top—disappointing to walk into a supposedly “clean” space. The bedrooms were decent, but the attic space was unbearable in the summer heat, even with air conditioners running.The host was communicative, which we appreciated, but ultimately, the issues with cleanliness and the lack of adequate bathroom facilities made this a poor fit for our group. We wouldn’t stay here again
