Bethany Beach Ocean Suites Residence Inn by Marriott

I could not say enough good things about this hotel. This was our first time going to the beach in DE, and the room we chose was facing ocean front, very spacious with a mini range, kitchen, dish washer and sink. And very clean even the light blue sofa looked very clean with no stains whatsoever. There is a sleeping area, a sitting area and small balcony. The front desk staff was not only helpful, but treated us more like a part of the community. We learnt that since now it was off season (b4 May 15th) thus we could opt to do street parking free. I really appreciate her sharing the info with us.

Also on the second morning, my finger was accidentally cut by shell on the beach. Diane from the front desk was very caring and got the first aid kits and helped me with the wounds. I can't thank her enough for that.

And there was free breakfast with a vast selection, where you could choose a balcony sitting at the restaurant facing the ocean.

I have been to many places, but this one will always stay unique, as the inclusivity, the way how people here greet and treat each other, the tranquility is probably the first time I have felt in a tourist town in US.

Bethany beach was highlight of our tour. Unexpectedly. This place is so cute, relaxing, easy going almost to a point you get hooked to it. The best hotel in town is Residence inn. We arrived by car and parked it at hotel garage, there are actually two of them. Parking costs 20 usd per night and as far as Im aware up to 15th may parking outside at street is free of charge. But we opted for a garage. Lift or stairs take you to first floor into a lobby and main restaurant/bar. Check in was quick and we were given keys even before regular check in time. We opted for ocean view room. Hotel has only 3 floors. We got third floor, corner ocean front room. Room was huge, bright white clours and spotless clean. It comes with full kitchen including cooking equipment. There is a balcony overlooking wooden boardwalk with expansive ocean views. There is nothing ahead of you, just beach and waves. I definitely recommend these rooms as you can enjoy ocean without any interference. The beach is 20m ahead. Within 1-2 minute walk from the hotel is small central mall, cafes, shops, basically everything you need. The overall felling of the hotel is "relax,baby relax, you are at Bethany B". We loved our short stay here and remember it with profound love. It is not 5* hotel but has a 5* views and atmosphere and you will love it.

The location of this hotel is great, but everything else is just ok. It’s incredibly overpriced for what it is, especially in the offseason. Stayed in an ocean view suite, which was generally ok but slightly tired. For example, some of the baseboards were dirty or damaged. There was also a dirty band aid on the roof below our balcony. It is also incredibly loud. You can clearly hear every single conversation in the hallway, and housekeeping has been shouting and playing music all day.
