We had a wonderful stay! The close proximity to the beach and other restaurants makes this hotel a really ideal location. Also the staff is very helpful and kind. In particular Imah was extremely helpful with dining suggestions and helping us get acquainted with the area and took extra care to ensure that we had a great time which we did.

Disliked: Amenities
The property is in a very convenient location in downtown Bethany and right on the beach; however, I was a little disappointed with the hotel itself. The pool was claimed to be heated but it was not. The cleaning service was poor and honestly, the "amenities" that were offered at the hotel, were not what was advertised on the site when booking. Overall, nice place to stay for convenience, but not the ideal place as far as cleanliness and hotel amenities go

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed last year and had a good experience. This year was a grave experience and not up to Marriott standards. The woman at the front was rude and displayed no eye contact. Additionally, she attempted to place another party in front of me. Her comments were dismissive and lacked cordiality. Lastly, floors, doors, bathroom and common areas were absolutely filthy!!! I plan to spend my resources elsewhere next year.

The pictures shared on Expedia were exactly what we found when we arrived! Great stay, great room, and great ocean front property. Quaint small town charm, small beach and boardwalk but enough for quick get away. Two buildings but North Tower seems primary. Pool ok. Free buffet breakfast. Ocean front room pricey but worth it and parking charge high. Nice getaway for special occasion or only vacation. Recommend property.

We loved our stay here room was amazing staff were great. However the areas to get the elevator on the north building had such a strong overpowering cleaning fragrance just walking through there you came out smelling like it and we even held our nose in the elevator it was giving us headaches. Same smell in the check in area that was so overpowering. Room thankfully was not like that.

Perfect getaway in springtime! We chose the perfect time of year. I really want to return, however not comfortable with the crazy high price in summer. Too bad, would have been be a great place if more affordable in summer. Front desk person who greeted us on Friday evening for 8:30 check in was what a weary traveler needs~ shes a gem, protect her spot no matter what else you do!
