The Beacon is the perfect location for the beaches or shopping in Lewes. The staff is truly friendly and always answers questions. Restaurants are in walking distance too! There is also a Wawa within a couple miles if you need their coffee! ❤️

First time visiting - we loved it! This just became our go to hotel when visit the beach! Maggie was super friendly, informative, and kind. Great location - .5 from the beach, bike & kayak rentals next door, minutes from the ferry & Cape Henlopen, and plenty of breakfast/lunch/dinner restaurants within minutes of the hotel. Can't wait until our next visit! 10/10 Recommend.

Maybe year's ago it was a nice clean hotel, but not so now my daughter n I choose this hotel close to the beach n nice price and looked clean and safe from the pictures, we get there walking through the doors the carpet is stained, the cleaning staff arguing about cleaning the pool, we walk in the elevator bad odor get off carpet stained all through out the hallway, get to the room the little bed's literally set on the floor, the TV just a little bigger than a small microwave, and the room had a bad odor didn't have a microwave in the room, the little TV didn't even work and they don't serve breakfast, so no need to say we went back downstairs and ask for a refund and let the lady at the front desk know why, she said the tv's haven't been working, so all those reviews of everything being upkeep and clean are a lie, they need a serious renovation.
