We had a great stay at the house in Rehoboth. It was exactly as advertised, in a fantastic location just a couple of blocks from the beach and center of activity. Communication with the rental company was smooth and easy. Would definitely recommend.

Great stay in Rehoboth Beach

We enjoyed our stay so much. The history of the garage apartment home, the space, the games (such classics!), and just sweet warmth created such a great place for us. Being 2 blocks from the beach made back and forth easy on our hot days. It was the perfect stay, and we would love to return. Thank you!

55 Philadelphia Ave 8/10-16

Location of the property is excellent with short walk to the beach and boardwalk. Space is clean and very homey. Really appreciated the beach items and bikes available for use in the house. BBQ on patio was great. A few major things I missed on the site tour- the small bedroom our younger son used had no window unit and was very stuffy even with a fan (Joe kindly brought us a new one). House lights flickered on and off probably bc electric load was too much for the system with the window ac units and washing machines operating. We were concerned about circuit breaker or other electrical or issue. Bathroom sink is way too small and shelving needed in there (shower is great however). Recommend dishwasher install. Clothes drying line or rack is needed. Rugs curling and need replacement and kitchen sink sprayer didnt work. Overall we had a great week but will look for a different property next time.

Great location- property needs work

We were very excited to be back in Rehoboth and to book a great location- we arrived at the property and were very disappointed. We paid over $3,000 for the week and were greeted with overgrown grass and weeds. The outside sitting furniture was old, plastic chairs were cracked and couch cushions were ripped. The inside was as described, (as far as space) but dirty. The living area was spacious but dust on ceiling fans and flat surfaces was a turn off. The one bathroom in the house had moldy grout and crusted dirt in the corners of the floor. We have a large family so I usually try to cook multiple meals at home to save some money- This did not happen as I did not want to use the appliances, utensils etc in the kitchen. We spent more money eating out and staying away from this property- had a great time at the beach nonetheless, but will be happy to be home and clean.

Kitchen was filthy. Upon arrival we found that the kitchen counter had food on it. So before we could unpack the kitchen items we brought I had to clean all the counters. What a great way to start our vacation. After unpacking we discovered a dirty coffee cup with a dark visible coffee line inside it, INSIDE the kitchen cabinet. As time went on we found at least six greasy plates INSIDE the cabinets. More than half the plates and all the bowls were either chipped or cracked, many of the others were stained. Many cupboards were so full of disorganized stuff that it was an endless search looking for what we needed, there was lots of prior renter leftover stuff. The front oven grill was covered in grease. Most of the kitchen cabinet knobs and doors were greasy. The bath and bedroom doors were sticky. It was disgusting. No one goes on vacation, in part to take a break from cleaning their own kitchen, to have to clean a vacation home kitchen for which they are paying high rent. And who wants to take up the offer from the agent to send someone to clean in the middle of their vacation! With the unit full of our stuff we don't want to go to the beach and trust a complete stranger in there and we don't want to wait around for them to show up and hang around while they clean. And with all our stuff already in place, we would what, clear the kitchen so the cleaner could do what should already have been done? Disgusting. We have been ripped off.
