Pros: 1) Close to the beach (few minute drive), 2) close to the downtown area, 3) Night staff very friendly. Cons: 1) Air Conditioning didn't work in the room (over Labor Day weekend!), 2) Room towels are threadbare, 3) Day staff has no sense of customer service. Checked into this property Sat night. Typical beach hotel. Front desk staff (2... more

Centrally located, fair price for holiday weekend. Unlike most of the beach hotels, they accepted one night reservations like ours. This motel has no elevators for it's 3 floors, our beds' matresses were not firm, sheets were of low thread count. Lobby looked like a mixture of living room sets from a yard sale. more

We just happened upon the Beacon as we were driving to the beachfront in Lewes and decided that it looked like an OK place to stay. What a great decision! The room was clean and bright, the staff was beyond helpful and the location was... more

The Beacon was real easy to find and a decent value during high tourist season on the beach. It wasn't far from the beach, within a mile or so. We appreciated the deli and rental shop on the first floor of this hotel. We didn't make it in to the pool, so I can't say anything about that. The room... more

My fiance and I stayed at the Beacon Motel in Lewes, Delaware the first week of August 2008. We arrived on Sunday and left on Saturday morning - I think our bill was around $975 for the week. This was a nice motel with clean rooms and friendly staff. It is within walking distance to the public beach and downtown... more
