Bright Family Beach Retreat minutes from Bethany Beach

NEW LISTING! Welcome to The Family Sandcastle, a peaceful family beach retreat in Ocean View, just under 3 miles from Bethany Beach and the boardwalk.

Our home is set up for families who want an easy, comfortable beach getaway. Spend the day at the beach, come back to rinse off, relax on the patio, make dinner in the open kitchen, or settle into the living room for a movie night. The home is bright, clean, and fully furnished, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out.

The main level has an open kitchen, dining, and living area, plus a queen-size pull-out couch for extra sleeping space. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a king bed and private bathroom with a large walk-in shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom is great for kids or additional guests, with a twin/full bunk bed and a twin pull-out trundle.

We provide full linen and towel service for your stay, along with beach chairs, beach towels, a beach umbrella, and boogie/body boards to help make your beach days easier. The home also has a washer and dryer, a private patio, an upstairs balcony, one garage space, and one driveway space.
