The property was located in an excellent area of Cape May, near plenty of restaurants and directly across the street from the beach. The room was comfortable. Only hitch was the mess left poolside following a very hot day. We went into the pool area to swim near dinner time, when most people had left, and there were glasses, cans and dishes everywhere. Perhaps too early in the season? But a nice place to stay

We had a great time! The location is perfect! It’s super close to the beach and town and after a long day on the beach, a dip in the pool is just what we needed! Love the island bands that play at the pool too! So festive and the staff was super nice and accommodating!

I love the place. It's right across the beach, which is super convenient. The room is spacious. Bees Knees restaurant has a good menu, and the trivia game was fun. We will definitely visit again. Attached is a view from our room.
