Southern Delaware is known for its miles of pristine Atlantic beaches, Culinary Coast™ dining, scenic beauty, outdoor adventures, arts, history, golf, festivals, and tax-free shopping. While it’s easy to put together a nostalgic and budget-friendly weekend getaway that’ll take you back to your childhood family vacations featuring quaint cottages, sun and surf, ice cream, boardwalk fries and rides, now that you’re all grown up and have more pocket money, it’s equally easy to enjoy all of the above and more while enjoying luxurious accommodations - some offering spa experiences – as well as delectable, inspired white linen dining in beautifully appointed eateries, shopping, and entertainment.
In fact, in Rehoboth Beach, Bethany Beach, and Lewes, luxury-seekers will easily find properties to suit, each offering unique experiences and vibes. One such property is The Bellmoor Inn and Spa in Rehoboth Beach, located downtown, just a short walk to the beach. This beautiful property’s website describes it best:
