It is less than half-block to the beach - you don’t even have to cross a street plus we even provide beach chairs and toys so you don’t have to bring them with you! Had enough of the sand? Enjoy happy hour on the rooftop deck with views of both the Atlantic Ocean and Rehoboth Bay. Hungry? It’s a quick walk to any of Dewey’s restaurants – Nalu, Gary’s, Rusty Rudder, Lighthouse, Starboard, Dewey Beer Company, and more. A little tired? Then feel free to stay and cook in the well equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances or order in and relax on one of the 5 decks including a great screened in porch. Or just hop on the Jolly Trolley to Rehoboth.
Plus Dewey is a great family vacation town. Monday nights during the summer you will find movie night on the beach, a giant movie screen with a different movie playing each week. Bring your beach chairs and enjoy. Wednesday nights are family beach bonfire night, both on Dagsworthy Street.
