WHY YOU NEED TO BOOK YOUR BEACH VACATION HERE:
Enjoy your summer (or off-season) vacation dreams in private Ocean Village community with your family, friends, colleagues, teammates or club in this expansive multi-level luxury beach house rental safely situated less than 1/4 block or 180 feet to boardwalk toward the Atlantic Ocean with access to clean white sand on a private, life-guarded beach (on duty Memorial Day - Labor Day Weekend). This exquisite beach house is ideal for family, reunions, groups, business or religious retreats, or for just a quiet luxury vacation. The house is only steps away from a private boardwalk within our community that leads to wide, clean beach with NO crowds and lifeguards on duty every day.

During the "off-season" this gorgeous house is perfect for a long weekend, whole week or an entire month! The spring & fall months are ideal for long walks on virtually empty beaches.

Perfect family getaway
We could not have asked for a better place to get our family together! We had plenty of room, the kitchen was amazing! We had one person that was unable to walk due to surgery so the elevator was definitely a plus. The owner was very responsive and we would highly recommend this property. Definitely 5 stars!

Weekend with the Bethany Babes!
Great house, we are a group of women who have been coming to the beach for 34 years during the last weekend in September. We have had the delightful pleasure of staying in many beautiful homes in the Bethany Fenwick area. This one tops them all. Location, comfort, furnishings. We loved it.

Beautiful House - Clean and Spacious
My family gathered at this beautiful house for a reunion and what a great time we had! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need, from appliances to dishes and utensils. The bedrooms are good size with comfortable beds. We had a rainy day but we were entertained by the assortment of games provided by the owner. This house gives off the feeling of being well cared for by the owner. We will be back again next year!

Great house in an excellent location!
We rented this house for a big family vacation. There were 13 adults and 4 children. The house was perfect. The layout made it easy to have the children on one level with their parents (2nd level) because it has four rooms on that level with bunk beds and three queen beds. Everything was very clean and the house is fully stocked with everything you need...towels, beach chairs, bikes, beach umbrellas, coolers, pots and pans, etc! The beach is a short walk away and not crowded at all. We had a wonderful time and Doug was a great communicator. We would definitely like to rent again.
