STEPS TO BEACH. PET-FRIENDLY. LINENS INCLUDED.

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful Broadkill Beach vacation rental, perfectly situated where the ocean meets the Delaware Bay. Just a quick 2-minute walk across the street leads you to a quiet, uncrowded beach — ideal for those seeking a serene, coastal Delaware beach getaway.

This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath beach house backs up to the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, offering scenic views, tranquility, and a unique setting for your vacation. Mornings bring beautiful sunrises over the beach, and evenings welcome breathtaking sunsets over the wildlife refuge.

Enjoy the gentle waves of the Delaware Bay, perfect for families with young children, as you relax on the sand, search for seashells and sea glass, or watch dolphins swim by. End your day with a beach bonfire under the stars.

When you’re ready for more action, you’re just 15–20 minutes from:
• The historic district of Lewes
• Rehoboth Beach boardwalk (kids will love Funland!)
• Tax-free shopping at Tanger Outlets
• Movies of Midway and more

You’ll also enjoy amenities like:
• Reliable high-speed internet (perfect for remote work)
• Cable and Roku TVs
• A two-person kayak for paddling the bay
• Cotton sheets and towels included
• Fully stocked kitchen
• Open floor plan with lots of natural light

Our family-friendly beach home includes:
• Master bedroom with King bed
• Second bedroom with Queen bed
• Third bedroom with two Twin beds
• Greatroom with sleeper sofa

This Delaware beach vacation rental is also ideal for multi-family trips, wedding anniversaries, reunions, or group getaways. If you’re traveling with a larger group, our other home — Beachwalk Place — is just down the street. Search VRBO for: “ON THE BEACH. PET-FRIENDLY. LINENS INCLUDED.”

Whether you’re looking for a Broadkill Beach VRBO, a pet-friendly rental, or simply a romantic beach escape, you’ll find it here. The gentle bay waters, peaceful beaches, and proximity to Lewes and Rehoboth Beach make this home a perfect spot for making lifelong memories.

We look forward to hosting you at Beach Haven, your home away from home on the Delaware coast.

We learned a long time ago that family & friend vacations are worth the investment; a small price to pay for wonderful memories and great personal connections. We count it a privilege that you have chosen to stay in our home, Beach Haven.

We stayed 2 nights. We had plenty of room for 2 couples and 1 more. Perfect location, house was very clean, had everything we needed, even homemade muffins. The room was ready an hour early and was able to check in early. The hosts were friendly and communicated well throughout trip. Place was easy to find and easy to access. Recommend this place highly.

Our family (2 parents, 2 grandparents, one teenager) had a wonderful stay here for Spring Break. The owners were wonderful and left yummy snacks and muffins to welcome us. They were very helpful and communicative. We loved the home with Bay views out front (and a great porch for drinking your morning coffee - we saw dolphins) and the marsh/preserve out back. Lots of gorgeous birds around, a great spot for bird watchers. Not having to bring or rent linens was a huge plus as was being able to bring dogs - very pet friendly. All the beds were comfy and bathrooms were clean. We're rented many places at Broadkill and have never stayed somewhere so well stocked for guests - lots of extras - spices, coffee and tea, dish soap, toiletries, TP, and more. Very thoughtful. Also a box of games that we enjoyed playing. Home comes with a kayak but we didn't get it out on the water unfortunately, but we did use the beach chairs and umbrella. Overall a terrific rental; I hope to come back.

My spouse & I , family & dogs had a wonderful stay at your home. It was a great location, comfortable home, very clean, with everything you could possibly need. Gorgeous views of the bay in the front of the house, & spectacular views of the marsh land in the back of the house. Unbelievable sunsets! Great wildlife! Beginning of our trip was three days of the Noreaster. We felt very safe in the house. Looking forward to returning again.

Great Family Beach Vacation

We just returned from a lovely week on Broadkill Beach. The scenery from both the front and back of the house was just beautiful. We especially enjoyed all the wildlife, the dolphins, birds and the deer that wandered through the front yard most every morning. Natalie and Brett were the most gracious and accommodating hosts, I have never been to a home where so many goodies were waiting for us upon arrival. We SO enjoyed the freshly picked blueberries and homemade muffins as we unloaded and unpacked.

Another Wonderful Stay

This is our second stay at Natalie and Brett's place, and both times have been exceptional. The home is welcoming, beautifully situated and has everything that a family needs. The views of the ocean and preserve are so relaxing. The kitchen is well stocked. And the bedrooms are very comfortable. They always have treats for their guests, which my hungry teens love. We were there during very cold weather and it was so nice and cozy, yet still at the beach!

Beautiful Gem!

Celebrated the Thanksgiving holiday in this gorgeous home with my husband, three older boys and my Mother-In-Law and it could not have been more perfect! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to do lots of cooking and we even were greeted with lots of snacks to enjoy. Great big table to eat and play games and cards. Ocean access right across the street and was truly perfect for some fishing Thanksgiving morning! We made magical memories and look forward to staying in this gem again!

Beach access is just across the street... everything was easy. Nice rooms and the kitchen was fully furnished. We would like to return... perhaps next spring. Thank you, Natalie and Brett.

Amazing September Beach Vacation

Such an amazing home, well stocked with everything we'd need for a family beach vacation! The hosts have thought of everything, and the location is ideal - close to Lewes and Rehoboth, but also far enough way that we had the beach to ourselves. Highly recommend this property, it was the best VRBO experience we've had to date. Thanks so much Brett and Natalie!

Family Vacation

Great location on quite beach. Property owners were very responsive to inquires about no hot water and an AAC leak they immediately resolved. They credited us a day so they could install a new hot water heater which was very kind of them. Access to beach and the view was great. Three decks and three bathrooms was a plus. The only negatives were the biting flies at the beach (bring DDT so you aren’t attacked) and the cool/warm showers the first two days.

Premium and spacious property in Broadkill Beach area

This property is spacious (three-bedrooms and bathrooms) and presents ultimate tranquility with outside decks presenting views of marsh lands and migratory birds at the nearby Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge and the mouth of the Delaware bay. Beach access is right across the street. The Coastal Highway access is about ten-minute drive from the property and another ten minutes to access historic Lewes and its great restaurants. A telescope and ample snacks are included. Nearby Cape Henlopen State Park, where the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay meet, offered excellent beaches and a chance to see dolphins swimming in "pods". Electronic access was most convenient and host communications were excellent. A premium property listing in an extremely tranquil and peaceful part of Deleware.
