When traveling to the Delaware Beaches, the first thing to decide is which city to stay in. Rehoboth has a huge outlet mall, scores of chain restaurants, gigantic big box stores, a boardwalk with tons of amusements, plenty of opportunities for bar-hopping, and lots of entertainment for children. For most tourists, particularly families, that's exactly why they come to the... More

My husband and I stayed here on our way to Avalon from Florida. The place is very Bohemian and extremely comfortable. Rick made us feel right at home from the start. It is located close to town with many fine restaurants. We will definitely stay there again. Nancy M. More

This is a very nice property in quiet Lewes. The hospitality was exceptional, the amenities were of the highest order, and they were understanding of our concerns when a misunderstanding arose and resolved the situation. Also, the decorations were fun and in keeping with the theme. More

We had a great stay at Blue Water House. Rick was extremely hospitable, even renting us a room for one night although we are in the two night minimum season. We stayed in the Islamorado room. It was clean, and colorful. We didn't have the chance to eat breakfast - we slept in. We did take advantage of free beer... More

My sister(s) and I have stayed at Blue Water House two times and both times we were very impressed. Rick has the perfect balance of hospitality/availability and privacy. He is helpful and friendly without feeling overbearing. Breakfast is always a treat. He has cooked us delicious eggs with fresh veggies, french toast and, pancakes. All were fantastic. The style of... More

We just stayed one night, but wished we could have stayed longer. Rick is an absolutely delightful man and one of the best hosts we've met. The B&B isn't for everyone. It's got very bright, vividly painted walls, folk art everywhere and is not at all "traditional" but we felt so at home and welcomed. His little dog Lola was... More

A friendly greeting from Rick, candid advice about dinner choices, a lovely Florida-themed room (the Key West) in colorful Miami style, a very comfy bread and a decnt breakfast (on our visit, homemade pecan waffles and sausage; fruits, cereals, and sweet rolls). A charming little common area on the third floor was serene and inviting. One can walk two blinks... More

I honestly couldn't say more postive things about this Bed & Breakfast. It was by far the best place I have ever stayed in by the beach. Rick, the owner, was just awesome!!!! Everything was just amazing; all you could want and more. Lewes is now our favorite beach!!! Can't wait to go back to the Blue Water House :) More

My wife, my two young kids, and I stayed at the Blue Water House for 5 days and 4 nights this August, and it was perfect. Families experienced in travel probably already understand that a B&B (like Blue Water) is well-suited to a vacation with children because one can eat breakfast without going anywhere in the morning, and then start...
