History

FROM MALLOY'S CABINS TO THE WAYPOINT

In the early 1900s, Jim Crow laws and segregation pushed many Black workers in Rehoboth Beach to form close-knit communities in West Rehoboth. Among the Black-owned businesses was Malloy's Modern Cabins, later Malloy's Motel and now, The Waypoint. Owned by Bob and Mary Malloy from 1946 to 1989, it was listed in the Green Book, a guide that helped Black travelers find safe places to eat and sleep.

Today, you can explore this history at the beloved Rehoboth Beach Museum.

Had the privilege of staying here a night for an impromptu trip to purchase a car. My only regret is not being able to stay longer. Immaculate rooms, comfortable bed, convenient location, and easy, contactless after-hours check in really made this gem stand out. I look forward to my next opportunity to stay here, hopefully for a bit longer. Thank you Waypoint staff for a stellar experience!

Such a great experience! Check in and out was a breeze. The property and room was extremely clean and tidy. Beds are comfortable and the room was well appointed. I’d definitely recommend this boutique hotel.

Everything was very clean. The staff was really friendly and accommodating. We were there primarily to go to Conch island bar and grill, so the location was extremely convenient. You could also walk to the boardwalk area (about 1 mile).

We LOVED our stay! We did a spontaneous trip to Delaware for the night. We always stay in Rehoboth and found this new little gem. We have a 5 mo old and 3 year old. We booked the Bunk Suite and it was the perfect amount of space. They provided a pacnplay free of charge. We were planning on one night but then loved it so much we stayed another with this awesome promotion they had! Rooms are clean, bright and modern. No complaints. We will be back!

I thought this was a great place to stay! It is in town and walking to restaurants and the beach is easy. My room was clean and the sheets were amazing. It is an older style 2 story motel but very much redone and upgraded with of little “boutiquey”touches. Checking in and out was a breeze! I would love to stay here again.

Super cute boutique motel, updates are gorgeous (who doesn't love subway tile), bed was comfy, room was spacious, we unfortunately only stayed for one night but it's super walkable to so many great shops/restaurants, even the beach if you end up staying longer.

I have been coming to Rehoboth beach my whole life and I’m glad to have found a new reliable spot to recommend to friends and family visiting. It was so pristine I wondered if my partner and I were their first guests! Zach was so helpful, friendly, and responsive. Entry to each room is via keypad which is convenient not to have to keep track of room keys. The aesthetic and decor were tasteful. It is located close to downtown Rehoboth and across the street from Diego’s making it an ideal spot if you are visiting for Pride. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The room is small but clean, air conditioning works great and they have a remote check in, which worked great. The staff is very friendly and professional. We spent one night at the hotel and everything was good, the next day we realized my daughter left an expensive device there, we get in touch with the manager who confirmed the cleaning lady found it and we were able to get it back.
