Beautiful and comfortable

We had a wonderful stay at Mar Bella. Our room was very clean, comfortable and quieter than expected. Location was a bit away from the hectic beach scene, but close enough to drive anywhere you wanted.

Lovely place

What a lovely place! Every thing beachy is a quick drive away. We may return in the off season and just order takeout and hang out in courtyard. We got to say thanks to David in person. He seemed to beam with positive energy.

Amazing Stay

Mar Bella is absolutely perfect! The property and my room were absolutely spotless! The weather prevented me from using many of the outdoor amenities, but I plan to return during summer and take full advantage of everything. The bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in and the sound machine is a nice touch. I’m a coffee snob and the coffee bar was the best!Mar Bella is conveniently located to all of the local attractions without being in the middle of all the commotion and high traffic areas. I tried many of the recommendations from the owners and they were spot on.I’d highly recommend Mar Bella to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

This was a relaxing and refreshing place that my sisters and I loved!!!

The room was gorgeous with beach like theme and soft colors. The hosts did not forget anything! Robes, beach towels, hooks in the bathroom, codes for the doors - no keys to lose. The courtyard had seating and a pool with lounge chairs! Electric car chargers in the parking lot! Everything was super clean !!!!! Rooms, pool area, coffee station , sauna area all pristine - immaculate!!! The coffee station was a lovely surprise. David - the host was personable and worked to make us feel welcome! We really had a wonderful couple of days !!! Thank you Mar Bella hosts and staff!!!

Love this hidden gem!

I really enjoyed my stay. It is very easy to find with great parking directly in front. The amenities are spectacular. The hot tub, pool and sauna were very well kept. I stayed on the 2nd floor but for guests that can’t do steps there were rooms that were on the ground level. The host were so kind and very accommodating. They even have hammocks and rocking chairs and outdoor fire pits and a spa ! It was great that this location was so close to the beach but far enough away to get away from the traffic and large crowds at the beach and outlet. We will definitely return.

I feel so lucky that I found this place on VRBO! Mar Bella is an amazing place to stay and I highly recommend it to anyone who's coming for a stay near Rehoboth or Dewey! My partner and I stayed in the Seashell room and it was exactly the beachy aesthetic we wanted from a boutique hotel near the ocean! The pool and hot tub were one of the greatest amenities out of the slew that is offered here, I highly recommend using both during your stay if it's ins season. We will definitely be back the next time we come to Rehoboth and I would even come back during the cooler months just for the nice place to stay while exploring the area!

Not a hotel but heaven

My husband and I really enjoyed staying there. Everything was so nice and clean. We have stayed at other nice hotels and this was the cleanest place we ever saw. It was nice and peaceful in a home like setting. Pool and hottub outside. Several places to sit out side and lay back. It was a beautiful place for our 5th anniversary.

Wonderful atmosphere at this quaint mini hotel

So many pluses here:Easy to find just off of Landing road, well marked sign, private ample parking, wonderfully unique private courtyard with seasonal pull year round hot tub, showers and sauna. Spacious clean airy and bright room. I prefer the more firm mattress for my back and had a wonderful restful sleep. My wife liked the well stocked coffee stations and the many thoughtful amenities scattered about the room. Excellent value for all you get here. This is a well maintained and managed property. We highly recommend and would love to come back in the future.

Wonderful stay at Mar Bella

My husband and I spent our "anniversary weekend" at Mar Bella near Rehoboth Beach. We were very deliberate in finding a place that would enrich our experience in a new destination and Mar Bella (and their hosts) came through. It was absolutely lovely, well stocked with amenities and very relaxing. Everything you could want for a short getaway. David was very nice and we enjoyed a memorable stay. Thank you!

Wonderful Long Weekend Retreat

My partner and I stayed at the Mar Bella Hotel for a long weekend and we were so delighted by everything the hotel had to offer. The rooms/premises were so peaceful, quiet and serene. The location is superb, only 10-15 minute drive to the boardwalk. The owners were so responsive and accommodating and we met some wonderful folks also staying at the hotel for the weekend. We will definitely be back for another stay and are so grateful to have found this 'hidden gem'. You will not be disappointed!

Perfect Oasis

The perfect spot to rest after a full day of shopping, eating and beaching. However, if looking for a place to walk to area restaurants /attractions or just take a morning stroll there are no sidewalks and very busy streets. That being said, it was a lovely stay, and I will return in the future.

Peaceful, relaxing adult getaway

My husband and I spent our anniversary weekend at Mar Bella. It was a breath of fresh air compared to our usual hectic, kid-centric lives. It was clean, peaceful, spacious, and luxurious. We didn't want to be in downtown near the chaos, so this little retreat was perfect for our stay.

Perfect Retreat for everyday Life

This place checked all the boxes I was searching for. Place was designed beautifully and gave you the peace and tranquility I look for in a vacation. Exceptionally clean and very comfortable furniture. The people working their were so accommodating. The best location too! Close enough to the shopping, restaurants and beaches. I cannot stop bragging about it. Thank you for the "much needed" Perfect Vacation.
