Top South Bethany Hotel Reviews

Crystal Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I come stay here at least twice a year. Great staff great location great amenities for the area."

Princess Royale Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great hotel. Staff couldn’t do enough for us. Room was clean. Bed was one of the best we have slept in on vacation. Sheets were soft and actually stayed on the bed. The kitchen area was efficient for a stay. Pool was clean. Restaurant was good. Highly recommended and we will be back."

Atlantic Sands Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stay. There was a little mixup with my reservation but Hotels.com and the hotel got it fixed immediately. Melissa at the front desk was a great help - they all were. We were struggling with out luggage cart and one of the maintenance personnel took over and took it to our room and unloaded it for us . These are some nice folks! The hotel is so conveniently located literally on the beach/boardwalk and you can walk to most restaurants within 5 or ten minutes. I love this place and will go back many more times . IF you want a balcony, be sure you reserve on the SOUTH of the building , North doesn't have balconies even though the picture may show a balcony door."
