Relaxing few days near DE beaches
Very nice property. Located in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for an evening walk. The house is very cozy and was very clean. Huge fenced in back yard was perfect for our golden retriever and the kids to run around, throw football, etc. An easy drive to the DE beaches - Cape Henlopen is our beach of choice. Selina was great in communicating the check-in process and quick to respond to any communication from us. Would definitely recommend this property and would return again.

Cozy & convenient beach haven, especially for dog owners!
We had a great stay at the Lilly Pad, and even on our last day we were still discovering nice touches, like the board games & cables in the media console. We loved walking around the neighborhood and seeing the pond, the family room is large & flexible and felt like our home away from home, and we didn't have any issues or complaints. We were looking for a place we could stay with our dog, and this was actually her first time joining us on a family vacation - she did great, so the "experiment" was a success!

Family Beach trip
House is as described. Nice big bunkbed that is safe for smaller children. Two queen size beds that were very comfortable. Plenty of space to have your own privacy. House is cleanly. Minimal kitchen accessories. If you are there for the week and choose to eat out it’s perfect. If you’re there for the opportunity to cook while you’re at home, you may want to ask about certain amenities you may use. Otherwise nice option for a family getaway, the yard is always a hit! About a 10 minute drive to the Lewes beaches.

Perfect house in a perfect spot!
My wife and I have been visiting Delaware for years, staying in hotels in and around Lewes. This time we wanted a dog-friendly house and to stay away from the Rehoboth/Lewes traffic. The Lillypad is in an ideal location! About 10 minutes from great restaurants and a grocery store, close enough for beach and boardwalk visits while allowing us to avoid sitting in traffic jams, it’s just what we wanted. A secure, fenced, huge yard for our big dog was a selling point for us. The fact that the house was clean, comfortable, and that the owner had great communication throughout were all factors that will have us coming back.

A Wow of a VRBO!
We rented this VRBO because it was rated pet friendly with a large, fenced in backyard. Wow! Did our pups have a great time.. and we did too. Home has everything you need for a comfy stay and more. Everything described on the VRBO site was accurate. It was close to a variety of restaurants and beaches. We really appreciated the immediate and courteous responses to our questions by the host, Selina. We highly recommend this VRBO!

A pleasurable three day Labor Day weekend getaway with my wife, two young adult children, and our teenage pit terrier. We felt an immediate warm and welcome embrace, a perfect atmosphere to relax and play. The posted photos couldn’t quite capture the mood. So much to do! We would stay longer next time!

Lovely neighborhood; terrific back yard; comfortable home, friendly owner
First I will say that Selina was very responsive, friendly and accommodating. That made us feel very welcome, even though we have never met in person. We found the bright and open house very comfortable for our family which included my two sons, their wives and their young children. We spent our days at my brother's house in Rehoboth and enjoyed breakfast in the large Lilly Pad kitchen. We returned at bed time and went right to sleep. We loved the neighborhood for a walk in the morning. The back yard was fantastic and my three grandchildren, 6, 7 and 9 had a terrific time running around while the rest of us were getting ready for the day. We brought two dogs and very much appreciated the entirely fenced yard so we knew the dogs and children were safe from the street. We found the kitchen very functional with a large, attractive and useful selection of dishes and glassware, all in excellent condition, as well as typical cookware, also in excellent condition, for the little cooking we did. To me, this shows appreciation for the guests. The appliances were mostly brand new other than the dishwasher and microwave. Both functioned well, though the dishwasher door needs repair. We appreciated the laundry room and separate wash tub. We loved the back porch as an extra place for the children to play games. One of my sons lives in England and the ensuite room was perfect for them as they are less used to sharing space with the rest of us who see each other all the time! There was adequate space in that room to set up the two high-quality cots for their children, 6 and 9, and they had privacy as a family and a comfortable room for sleep. The second bedroom has a double size bunk bed. Honestly, this was impractical for a family of three as one of the adults was unable to easily get out of bed during the night without crawling over the other. I don't see how four people could comfortably share this room. My son ended up sleeping on the couch (I brought extra linens, expecting this possibility) I'd recommend two twin size bunk beds for this room, instead. I slept in the third bedroom. The bed was very comfortable. I would suggest Selina place dressers in all of the bedrooms as there was no place to unpack our clothes nor surface to lay personal items on. I know some people are good at living out of a suitcase, but we are not! Where possible, some additional nightstands would be good, too. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Lilly Pad. Thank you

Summer family getaway
We had a wonderful time at this home for an extended weekend trip with four adults and three young kids. The house was a single level perfect for small children. The back porch was amazing for morning coffee and evenings to avoid bug bites. The house was clean and basics provided. Enough room for everyone. Neighbors were friendly and a quiet location. Beautiful birds everywhere. About a 10 min drive to amenities and into Lewes area. We would definitely consider staying again. Owners were very prompt and accommodating.

Beautiful Home
Our long weekend stay in Rehoboth was to visit with childhood friends who have a vacation home here. This delightful home met all of our expectations. We really only hung around a bit in the morning to make breakfast, then headed out to visit. Back home again very late at night, so we really didn't get to fully enjoy this place as much as we could have. The kitchen is fully stocked - bathrooms / towels were as expected. I enjoyed the backyard for my morning walks to try to find those Cardinals that called out to me. I finally spotted one! My brother enjoyed the quietness of the sunporch for his morning devotions. We are hoping to come back again if the homes closer to our friends location are not available. The only "sorta negative" would be the bed in the master bedroom. It's really loud when adjusting yourself during the night. Needless to say, not much "movement" took place on it. ;) Selina was an excellent hostess. Quick to respond! And what a surprise to find out she and my brother are acquaintances! Small world! Thank you so much for sharing your home!

5 Hops for the LillyPad
I reached out to reserve this property for the 4th of July weekend because we had a baseball tournament. The owners were quick to reply and I immediately felt comfortable booking this space. When we arrived the house was clean and perfect for our two families. The backyard was huge and spacious enough to keep teenage boys occupied on their downtime from baseball. We placed a grocery order for pickup prior to arriving so so I had to do was pick up and bring it to the house. Everything is within reasonable driving distance -Sports @ the Beach facility, Beach, grocery, and more. I’ll definitely reach out to stay here again if we have another opportunity! 4 adults, 4 teenagers, 1 toddler & 1 infant.
