Whale of a Time - Waterfront Stay for 10 with Resort-style Amenities

Summary:

Experience the perfect getaway at Bayville Shores in Selbyville, Delaware—a waterfront community that combines comfort and relaxation for an unforgettable stay. As a guest at Whale of a Time, you’ll have access to a large outdoor pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, playground, nature trails, a fishing pier, and even a boat ramp. With scenic views, peaceful surroundings, and an active atmosphere, you’ll have the ideal backdrop for both unwinding and adventure.



The Space:

Inside the home, light streams through windows lining nearly every room, creating an airy and inviting space with water views at every turn. Begin your stay in the main living room, where a large sectional and wall-mounted TV make movie nights cozy, and an adjacent eat-in pub table for four adds a relaxed place to sip morning coffee or play board games. The second living room is a true showstopper—surrounded by two walls of windows, it offers panoramic waterfront views and direct access to the outdoor deck, creating the perfect setting for quiet afternoons or sunset conversations.



The fully equipped kitchen is designed with home chefs in mind, featuring stainless steel appliances, ample cookware, and counter seating for four. It opens seamlessly into the dining room, where a table for eight invites family and friends to gather for meals or games. Step outside to the upper deck and enjoy your morning breakfast at the table for four while soaking in the tranquil water views, or head down to the patio for grilling and lounging. Bicycles are also provided, encouraging guests to explore the neighborhood’s peaceful streets and nearby nature trails.



When you’re ready to venture beyond the community, you’re just minutes from the best of the Delaware beaches. Fenwick Island is a short drive away and offers quiet, family-friendly shores, while Bethany Beach and Ocean City, MD, provide everything from lively boardwalks to local shops and seafood dining. Whether you’re kayaking the bays, lounging by the beach, or catching a concert at the Freeman Arts Pavilion, Whale of a Time puts you close to all the fun while giving you a peaceful place to call home.
