Thinking about a last-minute trip to the Delaware beaches this weekend, but worried accommodations are booked?
We’ve got you covered. We scoured Airbnb for the best deals in the best locations and found four spots still available for Friday, Saturday and Sunday night this weekend.
Townhouse in walking distance of downtown Lewes
This townhouse, east of Coastal Highway in Lewes is “in walking distance to trails, downtown and restaurants,” and has free parking, according to the description. It’s $275 per night for two adults (plus a cleaning and Airbnb service fee), with two separate beds in one room. No children or pets.
“It’s a great deal because the townhouse is having a few renovations but is entirely functional,” the description says.
If you’re only at the beach for the weekend, chances are you aren’t going to be spending much time at the townhouse, but it has all the necessary stuff: full bathroom, full kitchen, washer and dryer, air conditioning, Wi-Fi.
This listing had only two reviews, but both were good.

Between Rehoboth and Dewey, Spring Lake condo sleeps 4
This condo is still available for the weekend for a steal. Spring Lake is a quiet condo community located on the Forgotten Mile, off Coastal High, between Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach.
This “bright, airy, window-filled” second-floor townhouse with two decks makes you feel like “you’re living up in the trees,” according to the description. It’s $285 per night (plus cleaning and AirBNB service fees) and sleeps four in two bedrooms, one of which is a loft. No pets.
There’s also free parking and pool access, and the reviews are great.
All the amenities of Sea Colony and just a short tram ride to Bethany Beach
“Poolside Paradise” in Sea Colony West sleeps seven, with three bedrooms, five beds and three baths.
The condo is “only steps away to pool and tennis courts and a very short ride to the beach on the Tram,” according to the description. Hot tub access is included, too. No pets.
In addition to air conditioning, a washer and dryer and a full kitchen, there are four TVs and a wraparound screen porch at the condo. Sea Colony West also has around-the-clock security, biking and walking trails and a playground.
It’s $650 a night plus cleaning, Airbnb and Sea Colony fees and sports an excellent 4.97-star rating.
DELAWARE BEACHES:Replenishment complete; over 1 million cubic yards of sand dredged
26-acre bay-front property with 2 private beaches
This home is $1,200 per night, plus fees, but hear us out.
“The Sugar Shack” sleeps 14 with four bedrooms, nine beds and three baths. There’s a hot tub and two of the bathrooms have jacuzzi tubs. There’s also a camper on the property, with one bed and bath.
Set on Rehoboth Bay, there are no less than two private beaches and a private, 40-foot pier on this property near the end of Old Landing Road in Rehoboth Beach. There’s a kitchen, laundry room and air-conditioning. Pets are allowed!
There’s no Wi-Fi, but there is cell service, according to the description. The property has only one review so far, but the reviewer said “The Sugar Shack” was “worth every penny.”
