- Review: This guesthouse was perfect in every way. The single room was a little on the small side, but I expected that, and it was immaculate. By which, I mean spotless and without fault. Keith, who welcomed me to the A&V was the perfect host, and when I had to be up earlier than normal for Eastbourne Extreme I was attending, he cooked breakfast earlier so I wouldn't miss out. Basically, everything I wanted, I got with a smile. And it is 100 feet from the beach. I'm sure there are other places in..., by Tara, 14 July 2014, rated 10/10 Excellent

Our room was on the 4th floor and reached by a gorgeous old lift complete with seats!! The room itself was a little shabby in parts but the views were magnificent. Bathroom was large and very nice. Excellent coffee in the rooms and they all come with access to Netflix etc. Would definitely stay here again...., by James, 23 April 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Which area of Wilmington is best to stay in for beaches?

When looking for the best beach experience in Wilmington, you'll want to stay in the coastal towns just outside the main city, with Wrightsville Beach being the top recommendation.

Wrightsville Beach is an island town known for its wide, sandy beaches and clear waters, located just a short drive east of Wilmington's city centre. It's a popular spot for watersports like surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking, with several access points along the main road, Lumina Avenue. The area features a mix of hotels, holiday rentals, and beachfront properties, many offering direct access to the sand.

For couples, Wrightsville Beach offers a relaxing coastal escape with plenty of opportunities for walks along the shore, dining with ocean views, and enjoying sunsets. There are a number of excellent restaurants and cafes, particularly along Waynick Boulevard and Causeway Drive, providing a range of choices for a nice evening out.

Families will find Wrightsville Beach particularly appealing due to its family-friendly atmosphere and activities. The calm waters are suitable for children, and there are often lifeguards on duty during peak season. Johnnie Mercer's Pier is a popular spot for fishing and offers a lovely vantage point to watch the ocean.

### How much does a beach hotel in Wilmington cost?

Prices for beach hotels in Wilmington vary, but you can find a great deal from £29 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.

### What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Wilmington?

The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Wilmington is during the summer months, particularly July and August. The weather is wonderfully warm, with average temperatures ranging from 20-25°C, creating ideal conditions for days spent relaxing on the sand or enjoying water sports.

During this peak season, the beaches buzz with activity, and all coastal attractions are fully operational, offering everything from quaint seaside shops to lively beachfront dining. Families, in particular, will find this a fantastic time, with plenty of organised activities and events suiting all ages. It's a period when the seaside town truly comes alive, making it great for a classic beach holiday.

As another option, June presents a great alternative. The weather is still very pleasant, with temperatures typically between 18-22°C, and the sea is warm enough for swimming. You may find better value on hotel rates and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular restaurants and attractions before the height of the summer rush.

### What beach activities should we do in Wilmington?

The best beach activities in Wilmington revolve around its stunning coastline, particularly along the stretch from Pevensey Bay to Beachy Head.

For those looking for a relaxing day by the sea, Pevensey Bay offers a shingle beach that's superb for a quiet afternoon. You can enjoy a leisurely walk along the shore, collect pebbles, or simply relax with a book. The bay is also a good spot for swimming when the weather is warm, and the water is generally calm. Families with younger children often appreciate the gentle slope of the beach and the opportunity for classic seaside fun.

Further along the coast, towards Eastbourne, you'll find more opportunities for active pursuits. The promenade in Eastbourne is ideal for cycling or rollerblading, with plenty of cafes along the way for a refreshment break. Watersports enthusiasts can try paddleboarding or kayaking from various spots along the coast, with equipment hire often available.

### 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 Wilmington for you.
