Updated Lakefront Vacation Condo With Easy Access To Everything Sea Colony has to offer: Pools, Beach, Tram service, Fitness Center, Family-friendly Activities, and so much more!
My well maintained and modernized 2BR/2BA condo with direct lakefront view makes for a perfect mix of quiet of Sea Colony West and the excitement of the Delaware boardwalks in one vacation.

Reading that list and looking at the pictures, it should be no surprise my condo twice earned a 'GOLD' level rating from the Sea Colony realtors summer rental division (before I switched to personally managing the summer rental schedule). I'm proud of how my property looks now so please take the time to look through the entire set of pictures.
In the master bedroom you will find a queen bed. In the second bedroom you will find a double bed with a single bunked above. Total sleeping accommodation is 5 persons.
Two of the community's pools are within a very easy walk; one of these pools also has a baby pool and the other is heated. The closest beach shuttle stop is three units away from my condo and the tram beach shuttle (a kid favorite) stops at the end of the block. TENNIS - the tennis center with over 20 courts is less than a 5 minute walk away. The fitness center was rebuilt and expanded in the 2017-2018 offseason and now has a larger indoor pool, fun water features for youngsters at the outdoor pool, plenty of exercise equipment, and an extensive offering of fitness classes for all levels. The new pickle ball courts and the family friendly amenities at the West Lake are a very short walk away.
Stays will incur a $140 cleaning fee. Guests must bring their own linens (the agencies won't let you do that) or you can book sheets for your stay directly from SheetsAtTheBeach - they have keys to my condo, they provide high quality linens less expensively than the rental agencies, and for a small extra fee they will make the beds up for you! I prefer to rent full weeks in the summer months but shorter rentals are possible in the non-prime season or for last-minute rentals.
As with every Sea Colony rental you will be responsible for purchasing recreation badges directly from the recreation association on your arrival day. These badges cost $47 per person per week in the 2024 summer months and allow access to the private beach (with life guards), the indoor and outdoor pools, the tennis courts, the fitness center, the shuttle transportation network, and other community events (e.g. the weekly beach campfire with s'mores). Unfortunately the badges are not pro-rated for shorter stays - this is one of the reasons I encourage weekly rentals.
This is strictly a non-smoking rental. Also, community regulations do not allow tenants to bring pets so no dogs or cats are allowed. For those concerned about allergies, condo owners are allowed pets and we do bring our dog when we stay.
