In May 1798, the HMS DeBraak, a British warship, sank off the coast of Delaware. The Zwaanendael Museum now commemorates the sinking with a day of historical activities that help bring the ship and that time period to life. For history enthusiasts and fans of ships alike, see the “wooden world revealed” and learn more about our great state.

Great location and ‘home base’ for a Lewes beach stay. Clean rooms, pool, nice feeling. Bikeable (walkable for some) to the beach and downtown.

Clean, reasonable, and close to a charming beach and loads of good restaurants within walking distance. Why this place isn’t booked solid throughout the summer is a mystery. The staff is nice and the pool is terrific.

They have the best rates in town. Close to everything (town, beach, walking trails). It certainly isn’t a 5 star hotel, a little outdated, but very kid/family friendly, and the entire staff is always super nice. My kids loved the…

Great location. No frills. They were great about us having to leave in the middle of the night due to flooding back home. Can’t wait for my redo.
