The restaurant was excellent. The staff was so friendly and helpfull.
The quality of everything was fantastic. We were only there for one night (arrived late and left early) so cannot really comment on the surrounding area. I was worried about some comments about its proximity to a main road - we could see the road out the window but great double glazing meant that we could hardly hear it. In fact we did not notice it was there, until we saw it. We booked a Deluxe King Room - The double bed was large, luxurious and very comfortable. I did book the room with 3 person occupancy so I assumed a third bed would be set up in the room - it was not. However, I called front desk and within 15 minutes a trundle bed was brought to the room - this too had good quality linen and was comfortable. There are complimentary products, shower gel, shampoo, soap and you can request other complimentary items if necessary. there was also a fantastic selection of snacks / drinks / creams that you could purchase. We arrived after 22.00 hrs and the kitchen was closed, however, the lady at the front desk rang Dominoes Pizza and we got some great pizzas delivered, really quickly. The breakfast was amazing, buffet, with a great selection of foods. Really great. There was a party going on in the dining room when we arrived, it sounded like they were having a great time ! From our room on the second floor, we could not hear the revellers at all.
Delamar Southport sits close to classic coastal Connecticut attractions: a charming historic village, a small working harbor, several popular beaches and state parks, and cultural highlights in nearby Fairfield and Norwalk (museums and an acclaimed aquarium). Most points of interest are an easy short drive (10–20 minutes) from the hotel, making it a convenient base for seaside relaxation, nature walks, and exploring small-town New England charm.
A picturesque, walkable village with antique shops, galleries, boutiques, and classic New England architecture. Ideal for strolling, window-shopping, and casual dining.
A small working harbor with scenic views, boating activity, and places to watch sunsets over the water. Good for short walks and photography.
Connecticut’s first state park with salt marshes, sandy shoreline, picnic areas and walking paths. Popular in warm months for beach visits, birdwatching and sunsets.
A family-friendly public beach with sand, picnic spots, and seasonal facilities. Great for a relaxed beach day and short walks along the shoreline.
An award-winning aquarium featuring local marine life displays, touch tanks, and IMAX-style films — a top pick for families.
Regional museum with exhibits on local history, rotating art shows, and outdoor gardens. Good for a rainy-day cultural visit.

Seasonal guide to help you plan the perfect trip to in Southport
Summer
Summer (June–August) — beach and boating season; highest demand on weekends and holidays.
Spring (April–June) and Fall (September–October) — mild weather, fewer crowds, better lodging deals.
March–May: temperatures warming from cool to mild, flowering streetscapes, early boating activity and farmers markets returning; best for fewer crowds and lower prices than summer.
A community-focused winter holiday event that usually includes shop specials, window displays, carriage rides and a tree lighting in the village center.
Weekly farmers markets, pop-up food stalls and seasonal harbor activities (kayak demos, small boat races) typically run from late spring through early fall.
Pequot Library (a historic and architectural highlight in Southport) hosts author talks, exhibitions and special events year-round; the village also participates in occasional historic house and garden tours during Spring/Fall.
Pack layers year-round. Summers are warm and humid — bring sun protection and light clothing; spring and fall can be breezy and cool near the water, so have a windbreaker; winters are cold with possible snow and coastal storms — a warm coat, waterproof boots and awareness of road/sidewalk conditions are necessary.
Southport is a small, affluent coastal village within the town of Fairfield. Hotel and lodging inventory is limited—small inns, B&Bs and a few nearby chain hotels in Fairfield and Westport—so prices fluctuate more by limited supply and nearby demand (weekends, summer, and holiday periods) than by deep seasonal discounts. Expect peak rates on summer weekends, around major holidays (Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year’s) and during regional events (shrimping/harbor festivals or large regattas nearby). Shoulder seasons (Spring and Fall) offer the best value: pleasant weather with fewer crowds and occasional off-peak weekday deals. In Winter there are fewer visitors and more availability, but some small inns or restaurants may reduce hours or close for the season.
Insider advice to help you make the most of your visit
Easily reached by car and Metro-North rail; nearest major airports are Westchester County (HPN), Bradley (BDL) and the NYC area airports. Driving is useful for exploring the wider Connecticut coast.
If you want a true Southport experience, stay in or near the village to walk Main Street and the harbor at dawn or dusk, book dining and harbor activities well in advance for summer weekends, and use Metro-North for easy day trips to New York City while avoiding traffic.
