Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Dover cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Dover vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $133 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Dover is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Dover for beaches is not within Dover itself, as the city is inland, but rather the coastal towns within an hour's drive, such as Rehoboth Beach or Lewes.

Rehoboth Beach is a popular choice for families and those looking for a classic seaside holiday. It's known for its mile-long boardwalk, sandy beach, and family-friendly amusements. The town centre, particularly along Rehoboth Avenue, offers a variety of shops, restaurants, and ice cream parlours. You'll find plenty of hotels and holiday rentals just a short walk from the beach and boardwalk.

Lewes offers a more relaxed and historic alternative, great for couples or those seeking a quieter getaway. Located where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean, Lewes has a nice beach known as Cape Henlopen State Park, which also offers walking trails and panoramic views. The town's historic district, centred around Second Street, features charming boutiques and independent eateries.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Dover?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Dover is during the summer months, particularly July and August. These months offer the warmest weather, with average temperatures hovering around 26°C, making it ideal for enjoying the beach and ocean.

During this peak season, the beaches are bustling with activity, from sunbathing and swimming to watersports. Families will find plenty of organised activities and entertainment geared towards children, while couples might enjoy the lively option of the boardwalks and beachside restaurants. It's a fantastic time for classic seaside holidays, with all attractions operating at full capacity.

As another option, September is a wonderful alternative. The weather remains pleasantly warm, often in the low 20s, which is still superb for beach activities without the intense heat of mid-summer. You may find better value on hotel rates and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular restaurants.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Dover with Expedia?
With Expedia, you'll unlock our lowest prices by becoming a One Key™ member. It's free and easy to join, and you can even access member perks too. Just remember to sign in to get our best prices on Dover beach hotels. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel. If you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.
What beach activities should we do in Dover?
Dover, Delaware, isn't directly on the coast, so beach activities would require a short drive to nearby coastal towns.

For those looking for a classic beach day with plenty of facilities, Rehoboth Beach is an excellent choice, about an hour's drive from Dover. This popular seaside town features a mile-long boardwalk with shops, restaurants, and amusements. The beach itself is wide and sandy, great for sunbathing, swimming, and building sandcastles. It's a great spot for families, as there are often events and entertainment geared towards children, and the calm waters are suitable for younger swimmers.

If you prefer a quieter, more natural beach experience, Lewes Beach, approximately 45 minutes from Dover, is a good option. Located on the Delaware Bay, the waters here are typically calmer than the ocean-facing beaches, making it ideal for families with small children or those who enjoy paddleboarding and kayaking. The town of Lewes itself is historic and offers a nice complement to a beach day, with boutique shops and local eateries.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Dover as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Dover for you.
