The house was just as pictured. It was spacious and very clean and tastefully decorated with a beach theme. Plenty of room for our family.
The beach was just steps away from our front door and was quiet and peaceful every day! We would definitely use this house in the future and recommend it highly!
This well-appointed, spacious, immaculate house is where our family called home for a week. The beds were comfortable, the hot tub inviting, and the sunsets some of the best we have ever sun! The two west-facing decks allowed you to watch the sunset comfortably from your Adirondack chair, or just a few steps away, bayside on the beach. It was a wonderful week and the host was very responsive to our questions. A must-stay!
It was a great house with great views and a quick walk to a great beach. No need to go anywhere else to enjoy quiet time with family. Karen was a great host and ensured we had a great time. Did I mention everything was great? Lol
The trip was very enjoyable and the Gem of the Bay was very nice and as described. We were 14 in total, so we needed all the space provided. The house was very nicely laid out and the outside deck was wonderful in the morning and late evening (after the heat of the day)!
We enjoyed the proximity to the bay (a very short walk) and the convenience of the hot tub! We would happily stay at this property again!
Thanks Karen!
Short walk to the bay and a quick drive to local Cape May attractions. House was fully equipped and very clean. Owners were extremely responsive to any questions ahead of or during our stay. Would definitely stay here again or recommend to friends.
The place was amazing, clean and in a great location. The host was very responsive and easy to deal with. I would recommend to anyone. It is a great family home and location.
So much fun,so many places to see.We all loved it!

Wonderful house!!!
This house is recenty renovated and they arre maintaining very neat and clean. We had enough space there for 16 people to sleep and every enjoyed a lot. Overall our stay was 'wonderful '. I will consider this place again for our next vacation.
My family of 12 had the best time in this beautiful home. The owners were very attentive in answering all our questions. The home was immaculate and even Hourican Isaias could not dampen our experience. It has all the comforts of home. It's in a great location, close to the bay and other attractions. Wonderful time was had by all.
The large home easily accommodated our extended 10 member family. The short walk to the bay beach was good for the kids. And the ocean beaches were accessible, too, with a short drive. Lots of kitchen equipment, beach toys for the kids and umbrellas for the adults. We cooked in almost every night and watched the sun set from the upper porch.
Very comfortable house. Spacious and well-equipped kitchen. Lots of beach equipment - chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc. Great deck for enjoying the ocean view & dining al fresco. Beach just a minute's walk from the house. Lovely sunsets over the bay. Be aware three story house does mean stairs.
Our extended family of 14 (late teens to grandparents) enjoyed our stay at the Gem of the Bay. The house is beautiful, well- stocked, and comfortably fit all of us. We especially enjoyed the upper deck to watch the sunsets, as well as the large living room for gathering and playing games. The location regarding the beach could not have been better as it was literally a one minute walk away. The bay water was incredibly warm (though questionable in its clarity), and we were able to take long morning walks on the beautiful but quiet beach. Proximity to restaurants and grocery stores was good ( though not walkable), and popular spots such as the Cape May boardwalk and beaches ( beach passes were a bonus!), Wildwood, and several breweries were within a short drive. Communication with Karen was outstanding and her expectations for her guests are comfortably clear. We had no issues and would highly recommend this home. Thank you, Karen!
House was a great size and in a perfect location. Agent was very helpful and very accommodating. Also very easy to communicate with.
Overall when we plan to do another beach trip I would stay here again.
Very well appointed home with lots of spce for a large family vacation. Living room area large and comfortable for everyone to gather together. If you desire some "down time" there are cozy sitting areas on the second floor , the first level, and plenty of room on the massive decks. It was very comfortable. The owner is quickly available and responds within minutes if you have any concerns. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Excellent location and large enough for the whole family
This is our second year in a row staying here with some extended family and it was fantastic. The house is seconds to the beach and has everything you can ask for. Pack light as there’s a washe/dryer, plenty of beach chairs, toys, umbrellas, etc, Down town Cape May is about a 20mim and great at night to walk around with kids and grab some ice cream (restaurants are packed during the summer so make reservations). I’m sure we’ll be back next year for more great memories.

Plenty of sleeping room and a large Living Room to have family discussions.
Our Family of 12 enjoyed the Gem of the Bay accommodations and easy access to the beach and short ride to town. The house had plenty of room for everyone and well appointed.
We're glad to highly recommend this location for a large family vacation.
We had a wonderful experience at Gem of the Bay. It is very conveniently located to the Delaware, about two houses down from being beachfront. My kids had so much fun poking around and looking at things like horseshoe crabs that had washed ashore, and the water is shallow enough for a stretch and the waves game enough that you worry less as a parent. If you have small kids, this is really an ideal spot. The house was very clean and well organized. Karen is a great hostess and told us everything we needed to know prior to arrival. The hang out spaces are very cozy and nicely designed. The baths/showers are slightly dated, but that’s a very small item for what was an overall excellent experience. Thanks Karen and Rudi...we hope to be back again!
