Hotel was very clean, well kept, and quiet. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They welcomed me, my fiance, and dog into the hotel with a smile and made sure to point out all the extras our room came with ( free drinks, free tickets for mini golf, discounted restaurant coupons, etc). They also texted me throughout our stay to ask if we needed anything. We will be booking here in the future!

This was our second stay. Looks updated from five years ago but the staff is just as friendly. Breakfast was hot and plentiful. Amenities included free entry to mini golf and the Delaware Botanical garden. Golf was within walking distance the garden was a drive off the beaten path. Both were delightful. I would recommend this to anyone going to the Southern Delaware Beach area.

Clean, well stocked facility with a decent hot/cold selection breakfast. The staff were above and beyond professionally polite, from the lovely front desk ladies to the wonderful breakfast and housekeeping attendants. Room was very spacious and well laid out. The knock out for me was having a bathtub that has enough room to actually enjoy soaking in! The complimentary fruit waters and home baked heath bar cookies were delicious icing on the cake of a wonderful visit.
