Atlantic Coast Inn

THIS IS NOT AN INN! It is a motel, and aside from its location, there is little to recomment it. It might have been fashionable in the last century, but by today's standards it is basic, bordering on shabby, and vastly over-priced in terms of what else is available.

A wonderful motel perfectly located right on the Delaware-Maryland state line one block from the beach! Lots of fantastic restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. An historic lighthouse lover’s dream with the motel located directly in front of the Fenwick Island Lighthouse! If you are looking for a modern hotel keep searching but this gem has all the amenities one could ask for including the best outdoor pool and a fantastic nostalgic vibe! My wife and I love visiting the Atlantic Coast Motel each and every summer!

We stayed in the Atlantic Coast Motel for 2 nights in August. Our room was in the back of the motel facing the light house. I was a little hesitant to stay after reading some of the reviews which weren't bad but not great since it is an older motel. I was pleasantly surprised! Our room and bathroom were both very clean. Yes, the motel is older but very well kept. The owners can be seen throughout the day cleaning the pool which by the way was probably larger than pools in most hotels and monitoring the housekeepers. The room had a refrigerator and microwave in the room. There was a small coffee maker with coffee samples and cups. They also offer complimentary toiletries. The towels were plentiful and looked new. They had a laundry area, ice and vending machines. The guest were either older or young families. The location is fantastic, about a block from the ocean. We are planning on our next visit with them. Something else I want to mention is the beds. I slept like a baby. Comfortable beds and quiet at night. I highly recommend.
