a National Historic Landmark in 1977. The original grounds had
many amenities, including an Olympic-sized salt water pool,
tennis courts, and a yacht club with architecture resembling
the hotel's grand tower. A Japanese tea garden, an ostrich farm,
billiards, bowling alleys, hunting expeditions, and deep sea
fishing were some of the many features offered to its guests.
The Del has been featured in many movies , including: Some Like
It Hot (which starred Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon, and Tony
Curtis), The Stunt Man (which starred Peter O'Toole), the 1973
film Wicked, Wicked (which was completely filmed on location
there), and the 1990 version of My Blue Heaven (which starred
Steve Martin). Spend a day or vacation at the Del and enjoy
