Adorable quintessential waterfront cottage. Enjoy quiet walks on an unspoiled beach away from crowds. Spectacular views from every direction. Glorious sunrises and sunsets abound. Open floor plan with a large inviting living room and a comfortable reading area.
Beautiful comfy cottage by the sea. It was hard to leave. The views are outstanding and the house has everything you need for an amazing stay. Looking forward to visiting again another year!
Just the right size for a small family or couple looking for a nature focused, less hectic, beach vacation. The kitchen was stocked beyond what youâd usually expect from a vacation home â coffee, flour, sugar, full spice rack, decent cookware, etc. Countless thoughtful touches â fresh flowers, an umbrella, binoculars, and beach toys. Bright, open floorplan â lots of space for boardgames or to just relax and watch the sunrise. Huge mudroom with laundry (stocked with detergent). Just one bathroom with shower (no bathtub), but there is also a large, private, outdoor shower. Definitely bring water shoes â due to prickly pear cactus and shells. Walk out to a certified wildlife habitat yard with grill, deck, kayak, and hammock. Easy walk from the back deck to a Delaware Bay quiet beach, full of ghost crabs, horseshoe crabs, and seabirds. We spent mornings on the beach or took short trips to: Cape Henlopen State Park (beautiful beaches, historical WWII observation towers, playground, and small Nature Center with a horseshoe crab touch tank), DuPont Nature Center (bird watching on their web cam and beach scavenger hunts for kids), Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge (easy salt marsh hikes), and Broadkill Store (walk on the beach while you wait for your pizza). Itâs an easy half hour drive to Lewes, Rehoboth, and Dewey for more typical beach town activities and Jungle Jims waterpark. Recommend Towers Beach state park for a beach day and Big Oyster Brewery in Milton.
Very well appointed cottage. Kitchen was perfect for prepping and cooking meals for the family. Great location, short walk from back patio to beach. Lounging in hammock late afternoons and morning coffee on beach were fantastic! Outside shower was appreciated after day visiting deauville beach, about 35min drive away, highly recommend. Only negatives, one bathroom, and not much privacy, sounds travel very easily inside home. shades on windows on sides of cottage would have been appreciated. But other than that, place is ideal. Owner is very responsive and obviously cares very much about the property, we will look to rent again!
This is a must stay property. The location is perfect and the house is fantastic. The hosts are so thoughtful and considerate. You cannot go wrong staying here.
Book now! This is a lovely house on a quiet bay beach that is also a bird and horseshoe crab sanctuary. We saw dolphins and an eagle. The house is immaculate,, well appointed and stocked. Great kitchen and views. Close drive to shops and ocean beaches. The Big Oyster Brewery is a must visit! Our family of 5 and our dog enjoyed the visit and hope to return soon.
Absolutely LOVED this property! Beautiful decor, perfect layout, clean, quiet, & relaxing. Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Seamless check in & checkout. Just opened the door to experience the beach. Up close with nature; birds, turtles, & even a deer stopped by. We didnât want to leave! I canât wait to visit again!
The quiet waters of Slaughter Beach (and few visitors) make it the perfect destination for a young family. The horseshoe crabs and dolphin pod were the talk of our ride home!We loved the cottage - the kitchen was also a nice surprise, as it was well stocked and very big for the cottage. Will definitely recommend to friends and family!
One of the best vacations i've ever had thanks to the gorgeous property and the outstanding management of the owners. Waking up to the sunrise, walking on the beach, relaxing on the patio, and watching the wildlife, which included a wide variety of birds, and also foxes, turtles, small sharks, and of course the horseshoe crabs! Plus Rehoboth Beach was 30 minutes away, so we had a wonderful dinner and walked along the boardwalk. Outstanding all around. I would love to come back.
Agree with everyone else that the property was as wonderful as advertised. Very appealing decor and everything needed was available. The location and water views were exceptional. We would definitely stay there again.
Coral Cottage is amazing. Beautiful, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you need for a great vacation. Hosts were great and very responsive. Very comfy beds and super pet friendly. Will definitely be back!
Communications with the owner was excellent. parking was no problem, even for 2 pickups. the cottage was clean and inviting , fresh flowers around the living areas. Cozy bedrooms. GREAT VIEWS. large living area with Great views. Don't for get to watch for dolphins. The best thing we can say is that we are looking forward to future stays here.
Good location for a quiet family getaway. Weather was amazing, had lots of fun games to play, and perfect space for anyone with mobility issues. Already booked a return trip!
We visited over Thanksgiving and the owners bent over backwards to see that we had everything we needed to prepare our Thanksgiving dinner. The house was spotless with very comfortable beds. We will be back!
Adorable house! So many windows, great view from all of them but you never feel like the neighbors are watching. The master bed placement is perfect. Wake up in the middle of the night and you can see the ships on the ocean. Quiet neighborhood. Comfy couches, giant TV, kitchen well stocked. Our dogs loved it too. We will 100% return. Owners were very responsive and helpful as we made a last minute reservation and they had to go above and beyond to assist us.
