Welcome to cozy Broadkill Beach! You have arrived at a paradise location for your vacation that provides opportunities to create wonderful new family beach memories. Beachfront Tranquility is totally oriented to the water. Every room has some view of the water. Straight out in front of you are the beach and water. Our private, very short walkway gets you immediately to your beach. Enjoy our four-bedroom beach home with outstanding unobstructed views of Broadkill Beach, Delaware Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Broadkill is considered a "Low-density area", so you will indeed get a wonderful quiet experience for your family time together!
We provide Contactless check-in with a keypad door - the keypad access code will be sent to you just prior to your arrival.
The decks give you unobstructed views of the beach and water. Our guests enjoy watching from our decks their children playing on the beach. You can watch the array of wildlife as gentle waves dance in before your eyes. The house is a quiet haven to relax, work, and just unwind.
The beach, at our end of South Bayshore Drive, is extremely isolated. There is no street parking so no one else can access our beach. No permits are needed for parking. Our driveway can hold 9 cars. You will be lured into taking long, peaceful, walks in either direction where you may see dolphins, crabs, eagles, osprey, owls, hawks, and other wildlife. The wide, flat beach creates a huge playground for games and fun for beach lovers of all ages. The water is warm and shallow, with a smooth sandy bottom.
For your convenience we provide for you the following:
Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand lotion, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent pods, dishwasher detergent, dish soap, multipurpose cleaner, trash bags - both for recycling and regular - olive oil, assorted spices, drip coffee filters and liquid soap for the sinks. In addition, we provide linens and towels: 13 of the following: fluffy white bath towels, beach towels, hand towels, washcloths, makeup washcloths and kitchen towels.
For families we also have available: Graco Pack and Play, crib sheet, highchair, silicone infant plates and utensils, children's plates, cups and utensils, Aveeno baby shampoo and lotion, board books, children’s books, board games, and a craft table with paper.
Prior to your arrival I will send out a list of recommendations of places to go, restaurants, grocery stores and other information to help you get prepared for your trip to our paradise.
Every bed gets the following: soft sheets, blankets, bedspread/quilts, pillow protectors, pillowcases, and pillow shams. Every week all the towels and linens are commercially laundered. In addition, the bedspreads, pillow shams and blankets are also commercially laundered. We send over 125 pounds of laundry every week to be cleaned. These laundry costs are part of the cleaning fee for the house.

Two more spacious bedrooms each have a queen bed and a single bed with a pull-out trundle bed underneath. The fourth bedroom has a futon bunkbed with a double bed below and a twin bed above.

Great 40th Anniversary Location
Had a great time. The only complaint we have was that the new stove sticks out so that the dishwasher door can't open fully making it difficult to load/unload. Would stay again. Thanks Tess

Amazing views, well-equipped home, wonderful host
This was the perfect accommodation for our 13 family members spanning four generations. The view and location cannot be topped. The home is so beautiful, spacious, and well laid out. We loved sitting on the deck, kayaking, walking the beach, and enjoying the hot tub. The fully equipped kitchen was icing on the cake. Tess made us feel so welcome and able to relax and enjoy.

Perfect beach house
You will not find a more perfect place for your beach vacation than Beachfront Tranquility. Tess is incredibly responsive and caring about her guests with great communication and many tips to offer. The house is incredibly well appointed for a large family who enjoys cooking, games, and easy access to the beach. Our littlest 2 year old easily navigated the path to the beach and was able to be very independent in the calm shallow waters of the bay. The kayak and hot tub are big hits with the older boys and the well appointed kitchen with our culinary crew feeding our large group. When you walk through the door of Beachfront Tranquility you see directly through to the ocean - and it's that way from anywhere in the house. Even on gloomy or rainy days, you can sit in virtually any room and still view and enjoy the ocean. We absolutely love this house - and it's owners!

Amazing views, lovely place
We enjoyed our stay here! The house has wonderful views of the bay, a nice beach and is well stocked for vacation time - a very well equipped kitchen, beach gear and kayaks, a nice porch for hanging out once the sun passes by around midday. Tess is a great host and was super-responsive whenever we had a question or need. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Another great beach vacation
This was our second family vacation at this wonderful spot. We had 4 generations there (6 weeks to 70+) and everyone loved the house, location, and views. The weather didn’t cooperate for a couple of days but even then it was still relaxing with the great views of the water from the house. And it was great having the hot tub available. On the nice days we loved the short walkway to the quiet beach and the use of the kayaks, umbrellas, sand toys, cornhole boards, and nice new beach chairs for everyone. Having all the bath and beach towels and bed linens provided is a bonus. Tess is a great host and very responsive - when I asked if there was an electric griddle available, she ordered one and had it waiting for us in the kitchen when we arrived. Can’t get much more responsive than that. Already planning to come back next year.
