I read in a previous review how horribly the renters were treated....by security and I had to speak up. That's rare here at Sea Colony. However, the additional cost for badges is a big rip off and the parking limit is a frustration--for owners too. We have owned for 14 years--our three children have grown up spending summers in Bethany.... More

Big resort. A lot to do, nice beach, good pools. Clean condo, but needs updates. Appliances are 20+ yrs old. not a huge deal since we spent most of the time outdoor. Resort management must find the way to allow guests to hang around on the resort even after the 10:00am checkout time. No resort access/parking is allowed after the... More

We stayed over memorial Day weekend in Georgetowne #205 rented thru Resortquest. After the stay we are seriously considering buying here. The towers are right on the beach, so convenient! The unit we stayed in was clean, with plenty of space for multi generational family of 6 (5 adults and 1 kid) and everything you would need for even longer... More

Our family has been staying at Sea Colony for years and love it. Very family oriented. Clean beaches, well patrolled by lifeguards. Activities for kids including junior lifeguard, swimming pool races and diving for money (kids keep the change). Weekly bonfires with marshmallows and sticks provided (byo gram crackers and chocolate) with music and dancing on beach. Sea Colony West... More

My family used to go to Sea Colony every year for our summer vacation, but as the kids got older we started to lose interest and as a result we hadn't been back to Bethany in nearly a decade. This October, we wanted a late season vacation and didn't want to spend too much or drive too far. Island 101... More

The previous reviewer mentioned about flying kites. It's not allowed during normal beach hours, but there are always lots of people out in the evening flying kites, my kids included. that's one of my favorite times at Bethany- when the sun is coming down, the sky is beautiful, the beach is quiet. every year, i see the price of Sea...

We’ve chosen Sea Colony twice in the past few years for a low-key family vacation due to its distance from home (close enough yet far enough) and its wide variety of lodging options that allow you to tailor your stay to personal preferences and budgets. After staying in the oceanfront towers four years earlier, we opted for a townhouse in... More

We rented a 2 bedroom condo by the tennis courts. The condo fit our needs. It had an enclosed screen porch that we enjoyed. We had to clean off the chairs. They were filthy. The beds were ok. They do have ants and we had to spray. The pots and pans were wok style and made it had to cook... More

Condo rentals are always a gamble. Our agent helped with guarded advise. Our selection was wonderful. New? No, but big bright, clean and comfortable. Hey it's beach front and you would feel uncomfortable walking into designer new with sandy feet. The two bedroom condo on the 12th floor of the main building was overlooking the pool and beach. Out the... More

We just finished a 3 day weekend in this Condo at Sea Colony. We have stayed at Sea Colony 2 other times and had good experiences both of those times. This time was much different. There were stains all over the carpets and the downstairs furniture. It seemed like the carpets had not been cleaned in years. The back porch... More
