I am planning a vacation for an ';extended'; family of 16 for July 2008. We have zeroed in on ';The Preserve'; because we want to be close to oceanfront/block, but really need easy access to pool and tennis courts. We understand the Preserve has one tennis court and a community pool. We don%26#39;t know anything else about this development. Can anyone tell me about it? OR....recommend another rental area w/pool and tennis AND close walk to beach? (Yes...we want it all!!!). We can%26#39;t find a house big enough w/a private pool and ocean access, so we think this might be best.
ANy other suggestions??? thanks!
Info about ';the Preserve'; in North Bethany
It%26#39;s a beautiful area of the DE beaches, but isolated so you%26#39;ll have to drive to get to anything but the beach, pool, and tennis court. In July, even weekday parking in Bethany or any of the beach towns is problematic.
Have you considered Sea Colony, just south of the town of Bethany? There are high rise condos oceanside; low condos and villas west of Route 1. Probably nothing big enough for 16, but multiple units might work -- and give you more breathing space. The beach is private and lovely; there are lots of pools and tennis courts, plus playgrounds and a fitness center. There%26#39;s a frequent shuttle to the beach. You can also walk to a small shopping center (not sure about groceries, though) in the community.

Thanks for the information. We had really hoped to be more ';ocean side'; than Sea Colony (unless, as you said, we got multiple oceanfront high rise units). But you make a good point---that the Preserve would be more isolated.
We are also considering a house with a private pool in Rehoboth--but it%26#39;s about 1/2 mile from the beach. I guess there are trade offs whereever we choose. again, thanks for the info!
