The staff at Atlantic Sands Hotel were so professional and helpful throughout our whole wedding process. They were easy to communicate and I would recommend them to any bride looking for a venue. A special thanks to Joe and Mercedes for all their help as well. I look forward to staying at the hotel again in the future.

My husband and I got married on 10/2/21 at the Atlantic Sands. We had all of the events on site (rehearsal, ceremony, cocktail hour and reception). I would absolutely recommend the venue to anyone looking for the full beach wedding experience! Also, having everything in one place meant we did not need to worry about anyone driving back to their hotels or need to offer any transportation. We only had one issue which was another wedding being on our weekend (theirs was 10/1/21) which really clogged up the room availability for our guests. The hotel had to add more rooms to our block but some people still ended up having to stay off-site. Joe was fantastic to work with and he really made sure that I had everything I wanted (and my husband, too!) and really took care of us throughout the planning process.

The Atlantic Sands was the perfect choice for our wedding venue! It was affordable, beautiful, and sensitive to how my husband and I wanted our wedding to look like. Joe MacDonald did the most fantastic job as our wedding coordinator; he was sociable, patient, responsive, accommodating, and extremely professional. The bridal suite had a beautiful oceanfront view, a jacuzzi, and plenty of space. My husband and I were offered our own private cocktail hour to unwind after the ceremony. We can't recommend this venue enough!

The Staff at the Atlantic Sands was amazing. I am a very indecisive and unorganized bride. They paid attention to detail and made the ceremony and reception flawless. They did all the center pieces and decorations for us. For the ceremony they provided a station for guests to leave their shoes and bush off their feet, apply sun screen and gave bottled water. I could not have asked for a more beautiful and perfect venue. Joe and Mercedes are amazing at what they do. I still have guests talking to me about the food. Everyone loved it. We will be having future events here.

I am so glad I got married at Atlantic Sands! EVERYTHING was perfect. Joe, Mercedes, and the entire team were phenomenal. Joe really made the entire process seamless & was genuine. We did our tasting on my in-laws 30th anniversary and Joe had a complimentary bottle of champagne and a handwritten note sent to their room. I love that it is all inclusive. They have a huge variety of decorations to choose from so you barely have to think of anything. The whole staff was friendly and accommodating. We loved the ocean front bridal suite- it was perfect for getting ready. I am just so happy with the ceremony set up and the reception! We were a bit behind schedule but one of the waitresses took time to calm my nerves and make sure we had a tray of appetizers on our table when we arrived from pictures. All my guests enjoyed their rooms, the pool, and raved about the reception. From the rehearsal dinner to the sparkler exit, Atlantic Sands made my wedding day dreams come true! I do not have my professional pictures back yet but here are some that were taken by friends/family. The food was delicious, the views are gorgeous, and Joe made the whole process so easy. I highly recommend Atlantic Sands for your wedding venue.

I can't review the staff and hotel at Atlantic Sands highly enough. If there were 1,000 stars I would give it. Last March, my now wife and I visited in our evaluation of venues. The moment we met Mr. McDonald (Joe) we knew we would be in great hands. We did a destination wedding to our favorite beach town with a total attending guest list of about 65 people. Joe and his staff answered literally dozens of emails with questions, recommendations, and assistance. They never once made me feel like an imposition. They had things we could be loaned to help fill out our decor and helped make our vision perfect. The week of the wedding we met with the whole team to go over final details. When we found out that the weather was not going to cooperate, they helped move our welcome party for our guests into the Grille where our rehearsal took place. They also helped move the wedding into the ballroom which turned out to be even better than we could have thought. They let us in early to set up the wedding and took care of so much. They made us feel like we were their only wedding even though they had three in that weekend. Even after the wedding they continued to make us feel like we were special. I really can't thank them enough. If you are looking for a venue that will maintain communication, help guide you through the questions and process, and provide an absolutely wonderful experience...please contact The Atlantic Sands. Joe, Megan, and Mercedes have our absolute thanks for making our dream reality.

Can't recommend Atlantic Sands Hotel & Conference Center enough. From our initial visit a year before our wedding date (got married in October 2019), the place just felt like the right fit. Joe and his team made us feel welcome and answered each and every single one of our questions and requests (trust me there were a lot of both) throughout the year. The venue is pretty. It's spacious. It's accommodating. Everything is right there. The food was outstanding. The drink line-up was lenghty. The backdrop was beautiful. Talking to outside vendors we hired for various things, most of them all said they love dealing with the people at Atlantic Sands ... and we understand why. Joe and staff made us feel like family. They are the type of people you would invite to your wedding. Your magical day is going to be a special one no matter what; but the right partner, the right audience and the right venue can make it extra special.

Omg this venue is amazing for any couple including LGBTQ+ couples. Joe was amazing and walked us through the whole process. It was worth every penny spent. They really help with decor on the day of and give you many suggestions prior to the day. Joe also was there with us at the rehearsal, wedding and ceremony. He came and got us from our rooms every time and prepped us for what was to happen. My wife and I were so happy with him. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! 😊😍

The Atlantic Sands was an amazing crew to work with. Joe and Megan made my day easy. They are very attentive. We had 140 guests and asked for all the bells and whistles. The food was amazing we got so many compliments from the guests. The bartenders were fabulous and our guests had a great time. They turned the ballroom into something i never thought could happen. It made my special day so amazing and would 100% do it over again. We also did our dress rehearsal downstairs which made it super easy. Thanks all!

The Atlantic Sands was a beautiful spot to get married. They were amazing to work with. We were not able to set the venue up the day before our wedding, since there was an event; but they did a wonderful job setting up the venue like we dreamed of. We choose to have the stationed option and it was delicious! Joe was very helpful throughout our wedding. =)

I recently got married at the Atlantic Sands and we can’t say enough how wonderful everything was! Joe and his team were super helpful throughout the whole process. We were able to decorate the ballroom on Friday and clean up on Sunday which helped make Saturday stress free. All of our guests had an amazing time as well and everyone raved about the food. We chose the plated option and had salmon or short ribs. Our honeymoon suite was absolutely wonderful! We can’t say enough how happy we were and how wonderful our day was thanks to the Atlantic Sands! - Kara and Andrew

I have mixed emotions about how to rate the Sands. The reception turned out wonderful, the banquet staff did a fantastic job setting up and serving and assisting us during the reception. However, the planning process could have gone much smoother. For example, when my Mom, MOH and I showed up for our scheduled tasting day the Food and Beverage director informed us that the Chef was off that day. Unacceptable. Especially since I live in Louisiana and don't travel to my hometown to Delaware very often. Our event was passed through many different coordinators and I never really knew who my main point of contact was. I also heard complaints from some of my friends that the front desk was rude when they tried to make their reservations. The hors ‘oeuvres were fantastic and the staff brought an assorted tray with champagne for the bridal party to enjoy in the bridal suite during the cocktail hour. The food was pretty good- the vegetable side was a little boring and bland. A big perk was that management comped my room (the bridal suite) for the entire week I stayed there which was really nice! And I believe all of our guests were able to get the very reasonable block rate.
