We're going to a wedding on Rehoboth Beach in July: me (33 weeks pg), DH and DD (who'll be 18m). Any recommendations - particularly hotels? (We'll need some sort of separate room/sleeping area for DD.)

I think that Suite hotels offer the best kind of accommodation for families. There is likely to be a king-sized bed in the bedroom, and a sofa bed in the living room. There would be plenty of space for a cot as well.
Failing that, a pair of king/queen adjoining rooms if you want to have 2 rooms. Otherwise, there is plenty of space in a standard US hotel room (2 queen-sized beds).

Thanks Ameriscot - yes a suite hotel sounds like the best option as sleeping in the same room doesn't work for any of us any more!

Franch,
There is a Hampton Inn suite hotel in Rehoboth Beach. If you initially go to www.embassysuites.com and type in the city and state (DE) it should come up with this one.
I have previously stayed in a similar chain of suite hotels and have found them ideal for families.

Thanks Meerkat - there is a Hampton Inn but it doesn't seem to have suites unfortunately. Have found one or two other suite hotels though - trying to decide between that and renting a house for a week - the latter seems to be a popular option there and can be cheaper, but we're a bit dubious!

We lived in Maryland and visited Rehoboth regularly - it was about a 2 hour drive. Would really recommend a house rental which we did one May, why are you dubious? I will try and find the details of the one we stayed at

The standard of accomodation is usually very high as Americans expect it

The Breakers Hotel has Suites, is very central and a good standard
