AYLENS ESCAPE | FAMILY BEACH RETREAT NEAR BETHANY BEACH
Sleeps 12 comfortably (up to 14) | 4 Bedrooms | 3.5 Bathrooms | Indoor & Outdoor Pools

Bring the whole crew. Aylens Escape was designed for large families and multi-family beach trips who want space to spread out, easy access to the beach, and plenty of activities for kids, including the indoor & outdoor pools.

Located in a quiet, low-traffic neighborhood in Ocean View, the home is just minutes from several beach options including Bethany Beach. Families love that the playground sits right next to the home and kids can safely ride bikes or play outside.

One of the biggest perks of Aylen’s Escape is access to the beautiful community clubhouse, which includes indoor and outdoor pools overlooking the scenic bay, plus a game room with vintage arcade games, billiards, and ping pong.

For weekly stays, clubhouse and pool access is included at no extra cost.

For stays less than one week, the community requires a separate clubhouse access fee, which is based on the number of guests and days of use. If you’d like access during a shorter stay, just let us know and we’ll help you get everything set up.

Between beach days, pool time, and relaxing evenings together, Aylens Escape is designed to help families reconnect and create lasting vacation memories.

We’ve stayed in this development before and love the amenities, particularly the tennis and pickleball courts! Our host was very responsive and accommodating—Aylen’s Escape had everything we needed! I would suggest storing the outdoor cushions somewhere that will keep them dry—we couldn’t really use the porch and wanted to, and we couldn’t figure out how to get the stringed lights to work. We would have loved to spend more time in that space. Otherwise, our stay was enjoyable and we would definitely rent again!

The property was clean, well-equiped, and large enough to accommodate our family group of three generations! We enjoyed our stay and wished we had booked for a longer period of time.

We loved our week in Bayside at Bethany Lakes. Very walkable community with ponds, fountains, dog friendly walkways, sunset deck, and clubhouse. We loved the outdoor pool in the evening especially because it overlooked the bay at sunset We also had fun using the pickleball courts and game room. The house was roomy for our three families. Plenty of bathrooms, big dining table for us all, and a cute screened in porch for morning coffee time. This house is just a few minutes drive to Bethany Beach and under 10 minutes to Fenwick island state Park which we enjoyed a few times as well. The owner has thought of everything: dog bowls, box fans for warm nights, garbage bags, dishwasher tabs, coffee filters, hand soap, etc. And owner is responsive as well and checks in during your stay. We would definitely stay again at Aylen's place!
