Serendipity Bed and Breakfast was an excellent place to stay in Ocean City. Karen was extremely friendly, and the premises were clean and extremely close to the Boardwalk. I think we were less than a block away from the 9th Street Beach. My wife and I enjoyed breakfast there, with my wife raving about the breakfast frittata.. so much so that when we got home, she looked up a frittata recipe on YouTube. Serendiptity also provides beach towells and chairs which was extremely helpful. We plan on going back, do yourself a favor and book a room here. You will not regret it.

This was the first time my husband and I visited a bed and breakfast, and what a great choice we made with going with the Serendipity Bed and Breakfast. WE couldn't of asked for a better experience. As soon as we arrived we met the innkeeper Karen, who met us with a very warm welcoming. She even asked how our daughter's soccer game was that she played earlier that day, that I had mentioned we were going to the day prior. She showed us around her beautiful home, we plenty of beverages and snacks. We came around 8 pm so it was kinda of late but she still was a vry gracious hostess. She showed us to our room, which was absolutely beautiful. We stayed in the graciously green room, room #4, which was so warm and comforting. The bathroom in our room was huge. The bed was so warm and toasty, we had a huge king sized bed and a beauty rest heater blanket to snuggle under. The next morning, we awoke to fresh smells of coffee and delicious muffins baking. We had a wonderful, tasty breakfast. Which included fresh fruit, juice, muffins, coffee and our main entrees. We couldn't say anything more than, yummy, the breakfast was outstanding, and what a personable hostess. Karen was just wonderful, and I cannot wait to go back again, on our next anniversary. The other guests there as well, were very sweet and welcoming. We had a wonderful time, wish we could of stayed longer. Thank you so much Karen for making our anniversary and first time stay at a Bed and Breakfast memorable. We couldn't of asked for any better hospitality. See you next year!!!!!!
