Serendipity Bed and Breakfast

11/21/2017

Dear Valued Guests
Last fall I announced that I would be putting Serendipity up for sale. After putting it on the market, then taking it off and putting it on again, Serendipity has been sold. While I am happy for the sale, I am sad that Serendipity will be closing. The new owner will not be operating it as a bed and breakfast.
At this time of thanksgiving I would like to give a very heartfelt thank you to all of my valued guests. During my twelve years as an innkeeper I have had the amazing experience of meeting such a wonderful group of people. In all of my years I cannot even count five people whom I would not want to return as guests. In speaking with other innkeepers, I am aware that I am lucky. Thank you for making this career change such a rewarding one. Over the years many of you have become friends and many, many more acquaintances. I have had the opportunity to be part of engagements, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, and these same guests who became engaged and married, having babies. I cannot imagine a career which gives such delight. Unfortunately I have also been told of people passing, some were my guests and some were close family members of my guests. Thank you for letting Serendipity be a place where you could come to grieve and more importantly share wonderful memories. I will miss all of you.
Ocean City is a wonderful place to visit and I know that you will be returning.

If you were wondering who is in charge of the dunes, it is Mother Nature. She decided that the dunes at 5th Street had to go. Jose took care of that last night.

Watching and hearing about Irma reminds me of Sandy. Please keep everyone in Irma's path in your prayers. Also pray that they do not come back to find their home damaged.

Just had a visit from my favorite newscaster, Ukee Washington. He stayed here a couple of times and is just the nicest person!

News reports about the closing of state beaches may be unclear.
All beaches in Ocean City remain open as usual. The shutdown applies to state-controlled beaches in state parks.

They are back 3 strong on the boardwalk!

Manco & Manco Pizza’s long awaited new flagship restaurant location opens today at 3 p.m. in the converted and renovated former Strand Theatre at 8th Street and the Boardwalk. But last night was a time to celebrate the iconic Ocean City businesses’ new facility, its staff and the community which hel...

Apparently the new fad is rolled ice cream. There are 3 places in Ocean City that just opened that are serving this- one on the Boardwalk, Sweet Charlies, one on Asbury Ave and one on 8th St. Have tried the one on the boardwalk - tasted good! It was fun watching it be made!

The new roller coaster has opened! And no, you will not find me riding it :)

If shrieks and screams are any way to judge the thrill factor of an amusement ride, then the new Gale Force roller-coaster at Playland’s Castaway Cove is already a blockbuster hit. Primal, high-pitched screeching filled the air above the Ocean City Boardwalk as riders got their first taste of a towe...
