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 $127 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week.

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.

You may find better value on hotel rates and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular restaurants.
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.

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.
