Sea Colony Resort Bethany Beach

Live the Beach Life While You Work in Delaware

Imagine finishing your shift, grabbing your towel, and being on the sand in under five minutes. That’s everyday life at Sea Colony Resort in Bethany Beach, Delaware – a premier oceanfront resort community on Delaware’s famous “Quiet Resorts” coastline. We’re hiring Seasonal Housekeepers for the Work & Travel USA summer-to-fall season, and we’d love to have you on the team.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Seasonal Housekeeper, you’re the reason guests walk into a room and say “wow.” Your day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Cleaning and refreshing guest condominiums and resort rooms between stays
• Making beds, changing linens, and restocking towels and amenities
• Vacuuming, dusting, mopping, and sanitizing bathrooms and kitchens
• Washing dishes and wiping down appliances and surfaces
• Restocking your housekeeping cart and managing linen and supply inventory
• Reporting maintenance issues and lost-and-found items to your supervisor
• Working as part of a friendly international team to meet daily room targets

Why Bethany Beach?

Bethany Beach is one of the most loved summer destinations on the US East Coast – clean sandy beaches, a charming wooden boardwalk, boardwalk fries, free summer concerts at the bandstand, and sunsets over the bay. You’ll be surrounded by thousands of other international students working the same season, so evenings and days off are packed with beach bonfires, volleyball, and new friendships.

Plus, you’re perfectly positioned for weekend trips: Ocean City, MD is 30 minutes away, Rehoboth Beach is 20 minutes north, and Washington D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York City are all within easy travel distance for your end-of-season adventures.

Pay & Benefits

• $17.00 per hour – one of the strongest housekeeping rates on the Delaware coast
• 40 guaranteed hours per week, with overtime opportunities during peak weeks
• Weekly or bi-weekly paychecks
• Long season: summer through fall – more weeks means more savings for travel
• Paid on-the-job training – no prior experience required
• Multicultural team environment and excellent English practice every day
• Employer support with housing guidance and local orientation

What We’re Looking For

• University students aged 18–25 with valid J-1 Work & Travel USA sponsorship
• Conversational English – enough to understand instructions and greet guests
• Strong work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail
• Physical stamina: you’ll be on your feet, bending, and lifting throughout your shift
• Flexibility to work weekends, holidays, and rotating shifts (peak season is busy!)
• A positive, team-first attitude
