Where to Stay in Ocean City, Maryland

VRBO/AirBnB :

OC is more of a resort town so if you’re traveling with a group (4+) houses are the way I prefer to go. It’s more private, and gives you more space for friends and parties, with less rules to abide by. It also tends to be more spacious and there’s awesome rentals in every neighborhood so you’ll get a great value compared to some of the more expensive hotels.

Some cute local places are:

The House on Nantucket (uptown)

The Elbridge (cutest airbnb downtown/midtown right by the bay)

Booking.com :

I always use Booking to save a bit of money while booking hotels, whenever I travel. (Get $25 off your first stay on booking.com here). Make sure you check the hotels rates before you book, sometimes the hotels are running specials where they actually end up being cheaper.

Here are some of my favorite Hotels in OC:

Cambria : A brand new property built right off the route 50 bridge with the best view of the bay. Relax and unwind at the Cambria after a long beach day and enjoy the beautiful scenic sunset while grabbing a bite to eat and taking in the views at the roof top restaurant, Spain Wine Bar.

-The brand new Aloft : Situated bayside, most of the rooms have beautiful bay views (perfect for sunset) that overlooks the lavish pool and pool bar. It’s super modern and very clean! They’re family friendly and the staff is very accommodating. if you’re there on Thursday nights, make sure to check out the Sunset Splash Pool Party from 4-7pm for drink specials, a DJ plus fun activations like hair braiding and a glitter bar!

Hilton : If traveling with a group or looking for typical hotel amenities, the Hilton Oceanfront Suites have you covered. The arcade and indoor pool are great for rainy days, although the outdoor pool is also lots of fun. The three restaurants include one that allows you to dine and drink al fresco.
