Beautiful Beachfront Retreat on Broadkill Beach. Perfect for couples & families.
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
Beautiful Beachfront Retreat on Broadkill Beach (also described as “The Blue Pearl”) is a waterfront, smoke-free home directly on the Delaware Bay in Delaware, United States. Guests reach the main living areas by one flight of stairs and can relax on a screened-in porch with unobstructed water views. The setting emphasizes sunrise views over the bay and immediate access to the sand.
Layout & Sleeping
This is a fully furnished 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home, with an additional outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach. Two bedrooms have queen beds, and the third has a twin-over-full bunk bed; the primary bedroom includes an attached half bath. Pillows are provided, but linens are not—guests need to bring their own sheets, pillowcases, towels, and blankets.
Kitchen, Laundry & In-Home Comforts
The home includes air conditioning and heating, plus a full kitchen setup with an oven/stove and microwave. A washer is available for guest use, and the hosts supply practical starter items such as laundry detergent, trash bags, dish and hand soap, dishwasher detergent, a sponge, and limited paper products. Wi-Fi is free, and cable TV is offered alongside Samsung Smart TVs (including a 43-inch set in the living room and another in the primary bedroom).
Outdoor Space & Beach Access
Outdoor living is a centerpiece here, with a screened-in porch, an expansive deck, a patio area, and a gas grill (guests are asked to clean the grill and empty the drip pan after use). A few steps lead to direct, immediate beach access for walking, running, or biking on the sand, and the outdoor shower makes post-bay rinses easy. The deck’s chaise lounge chairs are positioned for relaxing with bay views and nighttime stargazing.

Best for
This beachfront home is best for couples and families who want direct Delaware Bay access and expansive water views from a screened porch and deck. It’s also a strong fit for travelers who prefer self-catering, thanks to the full kitchen, grill, and in-home laundry. Anyone who values quiet, stay-in comforts (Wi‑Fi, Smart TVs, patio/deck lounging) over hotel-style services will feel most at home here.
Travel tips
Plan for the linen policy: bring sheets, pillowcases, towels (including beach towels), and blankets for the specific bed sizes (two queens and a twin-over-full bunk). Expect stairs—access to the main level includes one flight up, and beach access is a few steps down from the deck area. A car will help for dining, with multiple restaurants clustered roughly 5–11 km away.
