Sandy Bottoms: Experience the Simplicity of Seaside Living in Bethany

This was a very good property considering price and location. Community pool is very close and nice to use. Wanted to give a 4 1/2 star rating due to several little issues: Difficult to adjust thermostat, a few of the pots and pans needed a good scrubbing to use, bath tub and sinks could have been cleaner, faucet in 1/2 bath was leaking. Didn't realize we needed to bring our own bath towels. Host was easy to communicate with and always answered texts.

Only a short stay but property provided everything we needed and was exactly as advertised.

We were here mostly for the beach so we did spend a lot of time there very enjoyably! We also had some good food nearby. The condo was clean, cozy, peaceful and quiet. Just what we were looking for.

This property was clean and comfortable for a small family. The owner has always been very responsive. The parking pass is a plus. It is in a quiet development and a short drive , bike ride or walk to the town and beaches. There are also several restaurants and casual eateries/coffee shops very close by. We have stayed here several times and would visit again.

We had a great stay! It’s a clean and close to the Bethany boardwalk. Don’t make our mistake and read the instructions closely. You need to bring your own sheets and towels.

We had a great time staying at this property. Having the outdoor shower for after beach cleanup and the pool for the kids to have as an option was great. The residential parking pass was incredibly helpful and the drive was short to the beach/boardwalk. The host communicated quickly and effectively when we had questions. There are some solid places within walking distance to check out (my wife loved the Italian Market). Only negative we had was the adult beds were a bit firmer than what my wife and I are used to (the kids beds were soft though). My kids both were asking when we were coming back.

Perfect for a family beach vacation.

I think this was our fourth year at Sandy Bottoms, and we are ready to book for 2026! The house is so comfortable and clean. It was the perfect size for our family of five (couple, grandparent, and two young kids). We love the pool for when we need a break from the beach. Plenty of games, toys (home and sand), and books to keep everyone busy. The beach umbrella and chairs create a convenient day at the beach. The resident parking pass is worth its weight in gold - we always park within one block of the ocean front. But it’s also easy to walk to the beach, mini golf, etc. if you wanted to. The outdoor shower is the best for “sand management”! Conveniently located near small shops and restaurants and not too far from the grocery stores. Courtland is a fabulous, communicative host.

Enjoyed a relaxing week with our kids here. Lots of games, toys, books for us to use. Pool very close so was easy to have lunch at the pool. Nice that there is chairs and umbrella to make it easier for us. Would rent again!

Thanks again for letting my family of 4 stay at this great property! The listing was as advertised.Having the parking pass made the drive and parking at the beach easy and saved on the cost of having to pay to park even if we just wanted to stop by and shop the boardwalk or grab a bit to eat.The property owner was easy to communicate with and I would recommend this for anyone looking for a great place to stay within an easy drive to all Bethany Beach (and all the nearby beaches) have to offer.

We stayed 2 nights at Sandy Bottoms and it was clean , cozy and convenient !! Thank you for sharing your cozy beach retreat with us !
