Shortest walk to the Beach!!
Great place and very attentive owners! Had everything we needed. Was the first time in awhile we had to bring sheets, towels, food, etc but the place was great. It was truly 100 yrds to the beach and very convenient for in town restaruants and easy to walk to all places! Dell & Larry were very accommodating.

Excellent Location!
This is a tough review to write because this apartment is literally 4 houses from the beach and in such a wonderful location. You could walk to so much and it was really, really convenient. However, the property needs a good amount of TLC in order to look like the pictures in the listing. The yard is overgrown and the patio furniture is worn from being out in the weather. The front door also needs to be lifted in order to close correctly. My conversations with the owner were very friendly and the apartment is a good place for a weekend, though, so maybe this is because it was the end of the season.

The perfect beach week
It was our first time at Dewey beach, and we loved it. The location of the rental cannot be beat unless you're staying right on the beach itself. Very convenient for my 77 yo mother who has arthritis and trouble walking. We could get a beach wheelchair for her at the lifeguard stand, but since we were so close, she preferred to walk on her own. Apartment had everything we needed. I would say it's more suited for 4 people as it gets a bit crowded with the pull out couch. Larry was so nice and had great recommendations. We loved all the dogs that we met at the house and on the beach! We will be back for sure!

Great Location
My family and I traveled from Chicago to Dewey in June. We loved the size and location of the property, but the unit itself could use some updates. The entrance to the “foyer” where the doors for the 3 separate units are doesn’t feel very secure, the trim in the bathroom is loose and the shower is very small- making it extremely difficult to shave your legs.
Dell and her husband were very nice and responsive, and everyone we met was very friendly.

We had a lovely, relaxing and enjoyable stay at this beautiful condo. It was everything it stated it was. The owners are kind and attentive and their gorgeous pup, Molly, is a doll - I absolutely love her. My pups enjoyed their stay as well - they loved sitting on the balcony and walking on the beach in the morning. The guests in the other units were also very nice!! Their dogs were absolutely sweethearts also. On a side note, everyone we encountered in Dewey was very respectful of the COVID19 distance rules and mask wearing. It is greatly appreciated.

Nice, Dog Friendly Stay Steps from the Beach
The apartment is not spacious (two bedrooms with queen beds are tight), but living room is more than adequate for 4 (we were only two) and the balcony was nice. The kitchen was well provisioned. The apartment was very clean, no evidence of being too dog friendly
It is steps from the beach, which is a big plus. The owners were great to deal with and our dog and their dog had fun playing in their large backyard.
It was raining on the day of our departure and the owners very graciously told us not to worry about the check out time and that we could have the apartment for the day, as they did not have it rented.

My sister and I rented this apartment last week (July) and had a great time. It's cozy, equipped with everything we needed and the hosts couldn't have been lovelier - they were there when you needed them but out of sight otherwise. They take impeccable care of the property, inside and out. There is a massive backyard with tables, a fire pit, outdoor showers and beautiful plantings. There is a 30 second walk to the beach which was never too crowded. It's also a very short walk to great restaurants, bars and activities. We will definitely try to rent here again!

Dewey Vacation
We had the best time staying in Dewey Beach at Dell and Larry Tushs' condo. Perfect location, everything in walking distance. Dell and Larry were very attentive to our needs and we enjoyed getting to know them. The condo had everything we needed and it was great to be able to have our dog with us. Larry even taught my husband how to Clam. We can't wait for our next vacation in Dewey. The other condos were great as well. Thank you for a fabulous time!
