Sea Colony question

[Anonymous]

What's a good per-night price at Sea Colony (in Bethany) for a 1 or 2 br? We're dipping our toe into a beach trip for the first time this year - just DH, me and DS. It'll be the week just after FCPS gets out - June 16-23. 2 br would be ideal but seems tough to find right now. We also may not go for the whole week if that makes a difference.

Full disclosure: I already booked a place and am trying to figure out if it's a good deal or if I should keep looking (it's fully refundable for a while yet). $225/night for a 1 br beachside. This does not include the price of the badge.

How about the Marriott Residence Inn Bethany Beach? It's right on the beach, offers a lovely breakfast included in the price, and each room has a kitchenette. We recently stayed there for the first time and loved it. We have one child and find that hotels are easier than trying to rent a place.

Thanks for the recommendation. Looks like the Residence Inn starts at $351 for a studio suite for my dates so I guess my $225 for a 1 br is pretty good???

that seems ok. I think that the last time we went we spent close to $1800 for the week, but that was prime time/first week in August. We rented a 2 bedroom, back further/near the tennis courts.

We haven't go back to Sea Colony since because it's over priced and I hated having to take the trolley thing to the beach.

Cheap for a hotel. Even in OC the decent oceanfront hotels are more than that a night.

The beach is insanely crowded right in front of Sea Colony. Just FYI.

I agree. $251/night during prime season is cheap.

It's cheaper than the houses and there aren't high rise hotels in Bethany.

I didn't think it was that crowded.
