10/10 Excellent
"Very nice, room spacious, wonderful balcony with Ocean view, easy walk to beach across the street included are beach badges and lounge chairs and umbrella & Towels,Dinning was good, basically bar food, service very good. Snacks available and bug spray would be helpful to purchase. There is one snack machine with limited choice, and one beverage machine. Walking distance to several shops , food, ice cream, coffee, miniature golf etc. Parking is an issue all over Cape May, it was a holiday so to be expected, but made it difficult to drive anywhere, they do offer a free golf cart ride and pickup within a mile, we didn’t use but great option. We did figure out the Jitney and went to the famous outdoor mall, that was a nice variety of shop.Hotel resort has it all."

"We really enjoyed our stay here. Loved that there was an elevator so anyone on the 2nd or 3rd floor didn't have to lug luggage up stairs. Really appreciated the free beach passes, the lovely pool, and the live music at the Rusty Nail. Everything was just easy and relaxing."
