Shore Comfort, Where the price is a Breeze
Thank you Willie for an amazing stay!

New 5 Bdrm/Bayside Home/Prime Spot/Private Parking
The house was huge and super clean! It was great for our large group.

Pet friendly cottage 4 blocks to Beach
David’s house was well appointed and in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. The front and rear screened porches made for a very inviting atmosphere, and the bed linens were super comfortable. A great kitchen and dining space helped round out what was a terrific home overall. Thank you.

In-Town Rehoboth Beach, Walk to Everything!
I’ve been coming to Rehoboth for almost a decade now with family and friends. Angela’s place was perfect for our stay. The house was clean and comfortable. The location was also exactly what we wanted. Angela is very thorough and very helpful and makes the whole process seamless. Thank you for being so detailed! Would definitely stay here again!

Rehoboth Beach single family home in town.
Lori is a fantastic host. She was responsive and friendly. Her home is beautiful and well-tended. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. The house is roomy with plenty of beds for everyone. The family room was perfect for movie night. The house is within easy walking distance to several restaurants and the boardwalk. We will definitely keep this in mind for future stays.

IN-TOWN - WALK/BIKE/DRIVE TO BEACH/DINING & STORES
We had a great stay at Rhonda’s house. She’s an excellent communicator and instructions were very clear. We had a small issue and she responded right away she walked us through how to correct it. As for house it was very clean and updated. Plenty of space for 5 people. The beds were very comfortable (attested to by my 9 year old son). The location was great as it was less than a 10 minute walk to the Main Street with restaurants, coffee shops and stores.About a 20 -25 minute to the boardwalk. We did drive to the beach and my husband rode his bike but you could walk the 20-25 minutes. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Rehoboth.

The Victorian WEST CAPE MAY Sleeps 16
Great weekend with great views from every deck. We were a large group of girls celebrating a birthday weekend ! Awesome place !

Airbnb Garden Cottage Lewes LLC
Loved staying at this cozy house in a quiet neighborhood. Close to restaurants, fresh seafood and grocery stores. The house was very clean and a well stocked kitchen (dishes, utensils, pots and pans). Loved the warm heating system too! No clutter (lots of space for our stuff). The best bathroom we have had since using Airbnb! We will be back!

Relax in Bethany! Great Location- 1 Block to Beach
The place is amazing, bigger than it looks in the photos. The rooftop deck was an added bonus, made it feel like a fun getaway! Nice little video game room with bean bag chairs for the kids. Everything you could possibly want, including the most plush towels I've ever felt. Short walk to the beach, only a block away.

"Sandy Feet" Broadkill Beachfront Home
This was our second year staying at Linda's place, and once again, it did not disappoint! The home is just as beautiful and welcoming as we remembered: bright, open, and full of windows that offer stunning views of the ocean. It’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home. And Linda is a fantastic host! Super responsive, kind, and genuinely eager to make sure we had the best stay possible. We’re so grateful to have found this gem and already can’t wait to come back!

Delaware Beach Bliss, steps from the sand & surf!
Well equipped house within very short walking distance to quite, private beach. Great amenities -- including bikes, kayak and paddle board. Private beach was gorgeous and very dog friendly, water was calm and shallow. Short driving distance to Lewes for great food, including terrific crabs.

Beach Getaway on Sussex
Adorable place to stay! Easy walk to the shops and restaurants. Great and quick communication with the owner. Thanks!

Bayshore Beach Bungalow
We ran into an issue when we first booked, and Elizabeth went out of her way to make sure it was taken care of. Then, we were delayed in getting there because of Hurricane Helene and she again made sure we were taken care of. Would definitely stay again if we are ever in the area!

Beautiful Beach House in Rehoboth
We had a wonderful stay at Autumn's house. The house itself was really lovely - clean, spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. And the location was unbeatable: near enough to the beach and restaurants in town to walk everywhere, but in an adorable and quiet neighborhood. (We were visiting in the off season, so probably things are more hectic in the summer, but I would absolutely pick this house over other options in the future). Autumn was also very communicative and responsive. A great find all around.

Rosewood Beach House - 5 stars for Sparkling Clean
We had an excellent time ringing in the New Year at the Rosewood Beach House. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for 8 adults, plus plenty of space for us to play games, cook meals, and simply enjoy each other's company. The property is conveniently located right off Coastal Highway, so it's easy to get to the beach/boardwalk, as well as grocery stores. Overall, this is an excellent place to vacation

Coastal Cottage! Walk to Beach!
Stephens place was perfect for our stay. It was even more than we expected. Location was quiet and close to attractions. The beds were very comfortable, and provided good sleep, which always seems to be a rarity on vacation. Stephen was a wonderful and friendly host and made sure we had everything we could possibly want or need during our stay. I highly recommend this place and im sure my family and i will be returning in the future!

Waterfront Retreat
We had a great time! My family decided to book this place for a little thanksgiving getaway. Although it was cold and could not enjoy the area as much, the view from the house is incredible!! Waking up to that view was so peaceful. I would imagine during the summer and spring is breath taking.

Marina Retreat | Relaxing Balconies & Pool
Edward and owner were very responsible and even went out of their way to help us when we have to make some change to our plans. Very nice place. Would definitely recommend.

Bradley's Bayou
Danitria was a perfect host! Before booking, I had some family emergencies that kept changing our dates - but she was extremely flexible, responsive and understanding. Between her pre-check in communications, welcome book and other notes - we had absolutely no questions or issues the entire 2 weeks we stayed. The house was clean, comfortable and relaxing. We felt as comfortable there as we would have been at home. Would definitely go back!

Beach Paradise IV-Downtown Luxury Condo Bay View
Nice place and huge enough to accomodate groups

Footbridge Hideaway
We really enjoyed our stay at TJ’s place. The house is very comfortable and spacious. We appreciated the extra touches like the record player and welcome baskets for humans and pets. The kitchen was very well-equipped and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out on the decks and hearing the birds. Our pup enjoyed walking around the community. Highly recommend!

Waterfront, SUPs, Yaks, & Bikes! Walk 2 the Beach
We had the most amazing stay at Donna’s house! The place was spotless, super cozy, and so stylish, with plenty of room for everyone to kick back and relax. The quiet neighborhood made it the perfect spot to unwind and recharge. We absolutely loved hanging out on the outdoor decks, soaking up the views, and enjoying our morning coffee while watching the gorgeous sunrises over the canal. The screened porch was perfect for unwinding and catching the sunset. The beach was only a short distance away, and the kayaks and SUPs were such a fun way to explore the bay. Donna was an incredible host—always responsive and so helpful throughout our stay. We seriously can’t recommend her beach house enough!

3BR|Game Room|Pool|Outdoor Sports|3 miles to Beach
Great place to stay! Close to everything and lots to do in the house as well!

Waterfront, Bring your own boat! Huge canal home.
Beautiful home in a convenient location for group of 16. Peaceful atmosphere and close drive to local attractions. Attentive, responsive and kind host.

Your guide to Lewes
Welcome to Lewes
Located at the confluence point of Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, Lewes is blessed with wildlife-rich wetlands and postcard-perfect coastal dunes. While the official population is just a few thousand residents, the quiet streets and namesake Lewes Beach swell with visitors from across the state in summer for surf-fishing, sunbathing, and disc golf. A melange of English and Dutch architecture memorializes the town’s history as a trading settlement in the 1630s. To learn more about this history, you can head to Zwaanendael Museum or the Lewes Historical Society Museum in the heart of town. While the streets are easily walkable, you can also make your way across the canal to board a Cape Water Taxi for a tour of the inland waterways. Further afield are some incredible state parks and preserves, home to endangered shorebirds like the piping plover as well as native Delaware flora.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lewes
Lewes’ peak travel season is from Memorial Day through Labor Day, when the weather is reliably warm and sunny. July is the hottest month, and midsummer always brings throngs of beachgoers cooling themselves in the Atlantic’s salty wake. For milder weather that’s more ideal for extended outdoor activities like biking along the boardwalk, boating, canoeing, or kayaking, late spring offers a refreshing breeze and lots of colorful wildflowers. Fall is the perfect time for admiring the changing foliage while hiking the state park’s scenic trails, and the weather can remain pleasant well into October. Come winter, Lewes gets quite cold and quiet. The temperature drops in November and stays chilly through March, often dipping to freezing or below during January and February.
Top things to do in Lewes
Lewes Beach
Located on the southernmost curve of Delaware Bay, Lewes Beach is a relaxed seaside retreat. Its shallow water and golden sand make it a popular beach for families, and it’s also a launch point for water sports. Lifeguards are on duty from Memorial Day through Labor Day. It’s easy to rent kayaks or hop on a bike to cycle the length of the beach.
Cape Henlopen State Park
Not far from town, Cape Henlopen State Park was one of the first public lands to be established in the United States. It served as a World War II defense site, a trading port, and a safe harbor for ships braving the Atlantic’s rough seas. Nowadays, Cape Henlopen State Park offers swimming and watersports as well as easy cycling on Gordons Pond Trail. Hike to the Point Overlook to spot seals and dolphins playing in the mouth of Delaware Bay.
Zwaanendael Museum
As you stroll in Zwaanendael Park, you might notice a striking building that was modeled on the old Hoorn town hall in the Netherlands. Built in 1931, the Zwaanendael Museum commemorates the first European colony on what is now called the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal. Behind the decorative facade, you’ll find artifacts from early European settlers and memorabilia from the town’s trading and military eras.
