Great Escape Magnificent Beach Views ~ Right on the Water -Child Items ~ Linens

Welcome to secluded Broadkill Beach! You have arrived at a luxurious paradise location and home for your vacation that provides opportunities to create wonderful new family beach memories. Beachfront Tranquility is totally oriented to the water. Every room has some view of the water. Straight out in front of you are the beach and water.
Our private, very short walkway gets you immediately to your beach. Enjoy our four-bedroom beach home with outstanding unobstructed views of Broadkill Beach, Delaware Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Broadkill is considered a "Low-density area", so you will indeed get a wonderful quiet experience for your family time together!
We provide Contactless check-in with a keypad door - the keypad access code will be sent to you just prior to your arrival.
The decks give you unobstructed views of the beach and water. Our guests enjoy watching from our decks their children playing on the beach. You can watch the array of wildlife as gentle waves dance in before your eyes. The house is a quiet haven to relax, work, and just unwind.
Our beach, that extends to the end of South Bayshore Drive, is extremely isolated. There is no street parking so no one else can access our beach. No permits are needed for parking. Our driveway can hold 9 cars. You will be lured into taking long, peaceful, walks in either direction where you may see dolphins, crabs, eagles, osprey, owls, hawks, and other wildlife. The wide, flat beach creates a huge playground for games and fun for beach lovers of all ages. The water is warm and shallow, with a smooth sandy bottom.
For your convenience we provide for you the following:
Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand lotion, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent pods, dishwasher detergent, dish soap, multipurpose cleaner, trash bags - both for recycling and regular - olive oil, assorted spices, drip coffee filters and liquid soap for the sinks.
In addition, we provide linens and towels: 11 of the following: fluffy white bath towels, beach towels, hand towels, washcloths, makeup washcloths and kitchen towels.
For families we also have available: Graco Pack and Play, crib sheet, highchair, silicone infant plates and utensils, children's plates, cups and utensils, Aveeno baby shampoo and lotion, board books, children’s books, board games, and a craft table with paper.
Prior to your arrival I will send out a list of recommendations of places to go, restaurants, grocery stores and other information to help you get prepared for your trip to our paradise.
Every bed gets the following: soft sheets, blankets, bedspread/quilts, pillow protectors, pillowcases, and pillow shams. Every week all the towels and linens are commercially laundered. In addition, the bedspreads, pillow shams and blankets are also commercially laundered. We send over 125 pounds of laundry every week to be cleaned. These laundry costs are part of the cleaning fee for the house.

Fabulous Beach House
This was our second stay at Tess's home and was equal to our first. The house is outstanding. Amazing views from multiple locations inside and out. A comfortable and easy place to feel at home and lots of room for our extended family to spread out or gather together. Clean and well stocked. The beach is private, easy to access, and perfect for a family with young children. Tess is a terrific host. Immediately responsive to our inquiries.

Great 40th Anniversary Location
Had a great time. The only complaint we have was that the new stove sticks out so that the dishwasher door can't open fully making it difficult to load/unload. Would stay again. Thanks Tess

Another great family vacation
This was our family’s 3rd year vacationing at Beachfront Tranquility. We love the views of the water from the house and how short the walk is to the beach. Although public, it feels like a private beach. We enjoyed making campfires on the beach and the sunrises over the water are beautiful for the early risers. Everything you need (kitchen utensils, towels, soap, linens) is supplied making packing much easier. We did have a glitch with the AC, but Tess and Andy were extremely responsive and got the problem resolved quickly. We are already planning to come back next year.

Wonderful beach house
The house was absolutely amazing, we couldn't have asked for more. It was perfect for our family to spend quality quiet time but close enough to Lewes and Rehoboth to enjoy some restaurants. The owners are very helpful and go out of their way to make sure the stay goes well. A perfect beach house for a family vacation!
