Welcome to the Delaware Beach's best kept secret: Millville by the Sea.

It's truly a special place, and a company favorite at Win-Le Vacation Rentals!

INTRODUCTION
Located just up the street from the community's newest pool, this luxurious home features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, comfortably accommodating up to 12 people. There is a full kitchen, a first floor ensuite primary bedroom, a laundry room with a full-size washer & dryer, a loft-style game room that's sure to be a hit for the whole family, and an attached garage with a ping pong table.

You're also located right across the street from the Beach Shuttle stop #12, which takes you right from the community to Bethany Beach. Instead of spending time fighting traffic and looking for parking near the beach, you can enjoy that much extra time with your toes in the sand thanks to the shuttle! The shuttle runs Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday from 10AM to 10PM beginning the 2nd week of June through Labor Day weekend. There's even an app to track the shuttle's location!

Located only 5 miles from Bethany Beach and 10 miles from Fenwick Island - with Ocean City, MD just up the road - Millville by the Sea provides a tightknit sense of community, like a hidden paradise yet to be discovered... all while providing the hustle-and-bustle of summer beach life just around the corner.

Beautiful home, great amenities

Our group had a wonderful time here. Three families with young kids had lots of fun at the pool, and thoroughly enjoyed all the toys and games that were at the house. Our trips to the beach were made easier with the beach wagon, chairs, and coolers. The adults loved the ping pong table and ax throwing. Lovely house with nice amenities, would stay again.

Lovely House!!

This house is fully equipped to help you enjoy your stay. We were 7 older adults, and we all enjoyed the accommodations. Not only is the house fully equipped, but so was the garage, with an extra refrigerator, cooler, beach and pool gear, fishing gear, ping pong, axe-throwing (not real axes), bikes - you name it. We were equipped for anything we wanted to do. We had one of the pools in the complex very near to our house and it was wonderful relaxing during the afternoon there. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the little frogs that visited us each night on the patio! This house is great for adults and families, with enough room for everyone!
