Ladies Beach Getaway
First time staying and would definitely book again. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. We left the sliding door opened upstairs to the screened in porch (a fav for the whole group!). Everyone kept their bedroom doors opened and we all and slept to the sound of the waves every night. We really liked the small deck by the front door ... nicely furnished and great place to hang out and read. Thank you, Susan!

Oceanfront Treat!
Great unit, not big but it’s newly renovated with a full kitchen, open floor plan, great light and best of all a first floor deck and second level screened porch off the primary overlooking the beach and ocean! Could sit on the porch for hours just watching the ocean and listening to the waves. There is also a deck in the front with chairs and table, and a first floor powder room. Location is central to restaurants and downtown Rehoboth but the trade off is that the area can get busy. Overall had a fantastic time and would definitely recommend! Would be perfect in any season.

We had an incredible time staying at the Sandy Paws Beach House. The updates to the property are gorgeous. Everything is so peaceful and serene. I would give anything to be back on the front balcony off the master bedroom listening to the waves crash on the beach. The owner was very communicative and helpful during our stay. I highly recommend renting this property.

Beautiful beach house
Perfect location with amazing ocean views! Beautiful place that’s been recently renovated. It’s very comfortable and really has everything you need to have a wonderful stay. We spent the days on the beach, walked to dinner, then walked to Sunset Park then back to the house to enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony watching and listening to the ocean. Looking forward to our next visit!

Fantastic Dog-Friednly Beachfront Condo
This is our second time here because we so enjoyed it the last time. Susan has upgraded the condo in very tasteful ways, which makes the space even more inviting and comfortable. The upgrades are like cherry on the sundae. The thing that is most wonderful about Susan's place is that you are right on the water. You can see, hear, and smell the ocean from the first and second floors, inside or on the porches. And you can be on the beach in less than a minute. The fact that both the condo and Dewey are so dog friendly was also fantastic. We derived a lot of vicarious pleasure seeing our dog's utter joy playing on the beach. Finally, Susan is incredibly responsive to any messages. I momentarily hesitated to leave such a glowing review for fear that the place will be booked next time we want to rent it!! :)

We love this condo--right on the beach, with two porches overlooking the ocean. The condo has EVERYTHING you could want and is very clean. Close to Woody's for crab cakes; walking distance to Rehoboth. We had great weather and sat on the beach in the beach chairs provided. Two small pods of dolphins put on a show right in front of my chair on Thursday. Honestly, I can't think of any way the stay could have been better!

Beach Fun in the Fall
We really enjoyed this little beach townhouse. Location could not be better. We loved being able to see, hear, and smell the ocean on both floors. Our puppy was in heaven playing on the beach and making lots of doggie friends. (Dewey is extremely dog friendly). The townhouse and its furnishings are simple but comfortable, with a cozy feel. Our only complaint was that the cheap toaster didn’t work; something that can easily be solved. We will definitely be returning!!

Communication with the owners was excellent: detailed, and prompt. The property was exactly as described. Gorgeous views, esp from the upper deck. We had everything we needed for a week of fun on the beach with our dogs! Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. We especially appreciated the private beach entrances from the property which allowed us to walk barefoot in the sand to the water directly from our lodging! We look forward to staying here again!

We had a great stay with our family! You can't beat the view! Even on rainy days, the upstairs screened in porch was perfect for hanging out. It was amazing to fall asleep listening to the waves and wake up to watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee on the beach steps outside your door. The space is cozy and was perfect for us, along with my mom and toddler. We would love to come back and would recommend Susan and her home to anyone looking for a cozy beach cottage feel with an amazing view and location.

Quaint beach condo
The property at first glance is cute when you walk in the front door. The location is awesome. The you go upstairs to put your bags away in your room. Then you realize you rented 2 bedrooms instead of 3 supposedly there is a divider to split the bayside bedroom, which is broken. There is only 1 full bathroom, which is full of mold and mildew and is small. There is a 1/2 bathroom on the main floor which is also small, and an outdoor shower that was put in a utility closet outside. The description of the space is misleading, and one of us ending up sleeping on a couch for the week. Not ideal and very uncomfortable.

Although the weather didn’t really cooperate we had a wonderful time. We were prepared for the “vintageness “ and it really was lovely with unmatched ocean views. However, the sofas are very hard to sit on, and the ceiling fans need dusting! Also, one of our group had hoped to work online while there but the wifi was very weak and spotty. We were happy to be able to take our dogs and they had a great time too. Thank you.
