Keywords: OCEAN BLOCK Beach Cottage-Just steps to the beach-newly remodeled and decorated Great, fun cottage! We also have the cottage next door-#7 -the porch can be opened up for access between the units.
We only rent by the week in July. We rent from Saturday to Saturday.
Cozy place for a weekend stay and close to the beach and good food. Had a great time! Dog friendly as well. Thanks.
Great spot for our weekend stay. House had everything we needed and it was a good size for the three of us. Despite being steps from the strip, it was quiet and very little traffic in front of the house. Easy to communicate! Thank you!
We will come back
The cottage was very clean and had nice amenities, close to the beach and very convenient off street parking! We especially loved the screened in porch!
The cottage is perfect! It has all you need, and it's a short walk to the beach. Our two labs loved it, too. Nice hose. We were able to rinse them off before entering the house. We hope to be back soon!
While this property was close to the beach, and clean, our check-in was the worst we've experienced yet with VRBO. The directions on how to get INTO the house were very thin. At first the keys did not work. I was unable to connect with the owner for several hours and VRBO kept me on hold for at least 30 minutes. I finally figured out how to work the lock so the keys would let me in...but I sure wish I'd gotten better instructions before then. (I got almost none. Just the code) Also it got quite cold while we were there. There were no instructions on how to turn on the heat, and when I did, it only reached 50 degrees in the house (it was in the low 40s outside). The heat evidently is set on 50 for economy, but the house remained very cold. The place IS close to the beach, and fine for a short stay with just two people. It is very small inside with a tiny bathroom. Sorry to be so critical, but honestly, I've never experienced a VRBO rental where there were NO or very sparse instructions on how to access and use the house.
We had no issues renting the property. Payments were a breeze, and Chris was always easy to contact.
We have stayed here in the past because of its proximity to the beach and being dog friendly.
What an adorable cottage! It’s so nice to see some of the original beach cottages are still around and this one was perfect for us. It was clean, steps from the beach and private although it is very close to everything. The screened in porch was so nice too. Chris was a great host and easily extended our stay when we didn’t want to leave. Thank you for welcoming our dog too. We’ll be back!
Had a nice week overall. A little surprised at how crowded it was at Dewey Beach- we are used to the beaches in Maine! Also surprised property so close to the popular bar Starboard- my college kid was thrilled. Even tho we were close- you couldn't hear loud music playing from the bar. Cottage quiet except for dogs barking from adjoining cottage when their people were away. Cottage very close to beach, walking distance to eateries-and had adequate parking for 3 cars. Had problem with main AC but owner called repairman and other AC units were able to still cool cottage (super hot week). Dishwasher did not appear to work but didn’t have heart to convey to owner after complaining about AC. Was a good week. Cottage had everything we needed!
Location: Proximity to the beach is excellent- 50 feet to the access. Beach is lovely and clean. Dogs allowed before 830am and then after 5pm - be aware that not all owners are responsible in cleaning up after their dogs. Dolphins and pelicans made a daily visit. Front porch screened in and that was wonderful. The owners did state there was no oven ahead of time but it would have been nice to have had one. Refrigerator and very small bathroom clean. Large people will have trouble in this bathroom. Contact with the owners was good ans they were very pleasant. Difficulties: The house is very close to the main road with a VERY noisy bar on the corner. Fridays and Saturdays were crazy with police and ambulance sirens going through to 1 - 2 am. Once inside the house, the noise is subdued. Rugs- grimy and stained. Air conditioner in the living room did not work - owners made aware but never fixed in the week we were there. The air conditioners in the bedrooms did work. They definitely need a new cleaning service. The house can use a refresher. No bikes, or beach chairs were made available so we did have to bring our own. My family enjoyed the week mostly because of its proximity to the beach and to Rehoboth boardwalk.
The amenities were exactly as described in the listing. So close to everything, you can park and walk or take the trolly where you want to go. The screened porch was perfect to relax any time of day.
This darling cottage is the perfect getaway just steps away from the beach. The screened porch is a lovely feature and was my favorite place to spend time out of the sun with my family.
Great easy and relaxing
Location is great walk to beach and restaurants. Having the porch was great.
Was not able to turn on heat. There were no instructions on how to do it. There were no linens, towels, hand soap or dish soap provided. This should’ve been communicated in the description of the property when booking . The bathroom was small and outdated. Would not recommend this property to others.
Just the right size for us and our pup. Love the screened in porch. Stove top is quite small, but worked for our pre-marathon pasta dinner. House was clean and had everything we needed. Host was communicative. Our stay was far to short!
