Booked a stay for one night, but wish we could have stayed longer. The staff was so helpful, the hotel is recently updated and beautiful. It offers many amenenites such as free beach chairs and umbrella for each day of your stay, delicious free buffet breakfast, onsite parking...although there is an extra charge for that.

It was first time at Bethany beach, The front desk welcome service wasn't great for me, initially the lady just give me the key card n nothing explained about other benefits how it was explained to other customers in front of me. But later for some reason they told me with the vouchers which wasn't pleasant for me. They should treat all customers in same way as we paid same amount of money. Also there is bad smell after we entered the facility not sure what but wasn't great at all. All about my first impression wasn't good at all. Next time if I go Bethany Beach definitely I will choose new hotel. Thanks

Totally worth the stay will return

Had to book this stay as an emergency when storms rocked the campground we were at. It was THE BEST CHOICE! The facility is so clean, staff was incredibly kind and informative, lots of extra perks for staying there (IE Chair and umbrella rentals, free mini golf, cocktails in room) The pool was clean and inviting what a great way to spend the time! Only downfall was having to pay for parking as a hotel guest.
