Stay here!

The ocean view from the deck is enough to entice you to stay here! It's an easy walk to a peaceful beach. The house is clean, inviting, and beautifully decorated. We've stayed here twice and already have it booked for next year! Communication with the host was excellent. It's an easy drive to the store, several great restaurants, and Rehoboth! Stop searching. This is a great vacation spot!

Great getaway

Loved our stay at this cozy cottage at Prime Hook Beach. We were able to enjoy the space on the rainy days, hang out on the beach on the nice days and find tons of shells or hop to neighboring beaches and towns. Great spot and great property. The listing is accurate.

April Reunion

A friend and I had a wonderful reunion together and the house was perfect for the occasion. We are both retired (older) so we wanted a house on the water where we could enjoy being by the ocean without having to trek to the beach. The early Spring weather was cooler than we had hoped, but we thoroughly enjoyed cozy house with lots of ocean-side windows. Our host was always prompt in responding to our questions and the house was as described. When we arrived the house was spotlessly clean and we found a welcome bag that included a bottle of wine. Thank you. Since there were only two of us, the two bedroom, two bath setup was perfect. We have already discussed a possible return in the Fall for another brief reunion.

Quiet Beach but...

Adorable cottage professionally redone. Steps from the beach and a deck overlooking the bay. I spent much time there due to poor indoor air quality all week (high VOCs & carbon dioxide) according to the smart thermostat and mine and a neighbor’s nose. I wanted to love this place and return but I can’t recommend. The host was responsive. When I arrived, I noticed a strong odor of gasoline or solvents coming from the basement south side, like gasoline had been spilled. The Ecobee+ detected high VOCs & carbon dioxide. I messaged the host and was told to open the windows, and someone would be out next day. Those folks couldn’t smell anything but removed the Quad (ATV) parked in the basement and said the tank was drained. Neither they nor the host could explain the thermostat’s poor readings. I asked the host if it was safe to be indoors with the current reading and she told me it was and her folks didn’t smell anything. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist and her dismissing it was not reassuring. I had a headache for 2 days. Thankfully the weather allowed windows to be open. When there was decent wind off the bay, I had good air quality but when the wind died down it went poor again. If you have problems with your lungs or are sensitive to VOCs, this is not the place for you. I noticed that a guest earlier this year posted a similar review. Please fix the problem and don’t compromise your guests health at their expense. If you ever remediate this, I’d love to return.

Perfection - Rest and Recharge!

My husband and I stayed for the weekend at this lovely cottage. We stay at many VRBO properties and this is definitely one of our favorites now. The house was clean, updated and located perfectly in a quiet neighborhood. It was spacious and cozy at the same time. We were able to prepare all of our meals in the fully stocked kitchen. It was truly a relaxing weekend of looking at the ocean and listening to the waves at this beach front home. We can't wait to return!

The house is perfect in so many ways and all the little touches make it feel so welcoming. Robin is a wonderful host and very attentive and the house being beachfront and pet friendly is the icing on this wonderful cake.

An absolute GEM!

I could not have been more pleased with our stay here. Our host Robin was helpful and quick to reply to any of my questions. Check in/out was quick and simple. The property itself was so clean, bright, and more spacious than we thought it would be. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need, as well as beach chairs, umbrellas, nice bath towels and linens! The beach was spectacular, clean, private, and the proximity cannot be beat. Being able to walk out the door and onto the beach is absolutely priceless. I was sad to leave and would 100% love to come back. Thank you Robin!

Awesome Place!

This was our second time back to this beautiful little slice of heaven. A quiet place to come and go to the beach as you please. The place was clean and decorated so cute! We loved the added plus of the added linens and towels this year! Saved on packing! The husband and kids didn’t love the mosquito’a but that’s not the properties issue, that’s just the location in general from what I hear. Highly recommend and planning on returning again!

Lovely home for a family of four

We loved our week at Prime Hook. The house was great - a cozy bungalow right on the beach. Perfect for a family of four. It was updated, adorably decorated, and stocked with all the essential kitchen supplies and beach necessities (floats, chairs, umbrellas). Low tide was great for our little kiddos. And the beach itself is very quiet. We had the whole thing to ourselves almost every day. We would recommend this house to anyone with little ones who aren't quite ready for the hustle and bustle of a busy beach and big waves.

Second Time Still Prime

Return renters to this property and it is still perfect for our family. Our 5 and 2 1/2 year old had a blast in the bay. The house is perfect with its short walk to the beach and amazing sunrise views over the water. The removal of the bunks and addition of two twin beds in the 2nd bedroom was a nice touch. Having a full size washer/dryer is also awesome being at the beach with 2 kids. Love this place and will hopefully be back soon!

Perfect cottage hideaway by the shore

We have stayed at many home rentals & this is top of our list. It has been beautifully renovated with many modern amenities including updated appliances, light switches, hvac thermostat, & a newer deck & railing. It offered sheets, towels, extra blankets, pillows, & comforters, & laundry supplies - these are definitely all pluses & not usually included when renting. All of this perfectly tucked away in a remote quaint area with beautiful views of the water. We had a slight issue on our part when checking in & Robin was super responsive to remedy it for us. We will definitely be back again!
