Great option for Ocean View & Beach Access
Wonderful location steps to the beach. Clean (I think it’s next to impossible for a hotel on the beach to be sand free), offered typical amenities, and no frills. Great ocean view - watch the sunrise from your room.

Location was great. Floor was covered in dirt/sand as soon as we got there, which means our beds were then filled with sand/dirt.

The place to stay in Rehoboth
The location can’t be beat! Plus, the service was impeccable! Everyone was so polite and friendly. The room was very clean and towels were replenished daily. Beds were made daily too. We will definitely return to The Henlopen

Perfect place for a family vacation
We went for a family vacation and it was perfect. We had a great view of the ocean from our balcony. The hotel was steps away from the beach which made it super convenient for us to go back multiple times during the day. Room was super clean and spacious which was a plus for a family of four. Will definitely be booking again.

Would stay again
Lovely hotel right on the beach boardwalk but not in the noisy busy part. No pool however this was a good thing, as it meant a more relaxed quieter stay. Easy walk to the surf club and shopping area. We were disappointed that the hotel would not store our bags for a few hours after checkout.
