Amazing Waterfront View- Relax in Anglesea

5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviews1 month ago

I had the pleasure of staying at Gabriel’s lovely home while attending an event at the Wildwoods Convention Center. This home is absolutely lovely and exactly as described. The home is well-appointed with everything we needed, from the basics of paper towels, toilet paper and toiletries, to the super-soft linens and towels. The location is perfect, just an 10 minute drive to the Convention Center and even shorter drive to restaurants. We enjoyed stunning sunrises right out the slider and a peaceful setting. Gabriel was incredibly responsive to every question I asked, which was wonderful. I highly recommend staying at Gabriel’s beautiful home if you’re looking for a great place to stay in the Wildwoods!

Cozy Yacht Cottages

5 out of 5 average rating, 9 reviews8 months ago

The condo was beautifully decorated in a modern and sleek style. It was absolutely spotless and had all the amenities. The one issue we had with the television was resolved quickly. The host was extremely pleasant and polite. The location was somewhat noisy and busy with traffic because it was close to the main road entering and exiting Cape May.

Katie was amazing! Very responsive and took care of everything immediately to make us feel at home. We were unaware that we had to bring our own bedding and Katie handled the situation with grace and allowed us to use her personal items, and compensated us for the inconvenience. Overall the stay was amazing, the house was beautiful, clean and well put together. Staying at Katie’s place is a must if you are in the area! Thank you Katie for a great stay!

Beautiful oceanfront cottage, year-round getaway

5 out of 5 average rating, 70 reviews6 days ago

We stayed at the Lighthouse Cottage to celebrate our children’s birthdays. The cottage has so much character and was beautifully decorated. We loved the short walk to the beach and the rooftop seating to soak in some rays! We drove to Beach Plum farms, biked to the lighthouse, went shopping at Washington Street, and ate an amazing restaurant, Taco Caballito. Leslie was the best host and was not only friendly but very accommodating and responsive! Thank you for a wonderful stay in Cape May!

The stay here was an absolute dream. The pictures truly don’t do justice to how peaceful the view is and how beautiful the house feels in person. Every corner of the home was spotless and welcoming. I definitely plan to come back every year—hopefully every chance I get! Michael and his wife are the absolute best hosts I’ve ever encountered—so kind, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful people. Thank you for sharing your amazing home with us. Cheers to returning again and again to one of the best homes in Cape May!

Luxury 5BR Custom Home 200 Feet From The Bay Beach

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 61 reviews2 weeks ago

This house was so beautiful! Our bride to be specifically chose this place because it looked elegant and spa like (we planned a stay-in spa night). There was enough room for us to gather around the kitchen island and hang out in the living room (open concept). The view from the balcony was also great - you could see the water! We did have an issue with the bunkbeds being loose our first night, but Nick and his wife quickly responded and took care of it right away! We all want to come back in the summer when it’s warmer and stay here to check out the beach and relax outside!!

Bayview Cottage - Magnificent Bay Views & Sunsets!

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 37 reviews5 days ago

This is a wonderful space, a charming cottage with a great view of the bay and just steps from the beach. We saw dolphins, bald eagles, collected sea glass and Cape May diamonds. Natalie's restaurant and activity recommendations were excellent -- we went to the Cape May Zoo, West5 Pub, Harpoons, Uncle Bills ... all great choices. We also cooked at home a couple times. This was a great spot for my family and I'd definitely return!

Stone Harbor Bar on the Bay

5 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviews3 weeks ago

Nick’s house was perfect for a Stone Harbor wedding weekend. The view of the bay and sunset are spectacular and the accommodations are comfortable make really smart use of the space so families can socialize together or have their own privacy. There were fun games in the enclosed bar room - family had a blast. We would return in a heartbeat.

Lovely 1 bedroom condo overlooking the bay

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 38 reviews3 days ago

Great place! The bed is tucked away (no view) but the updated interior offers plenty of space and storage( counters) for your gear—far more so than a hotel suite. Did I mention the view from the kitchen, couch, and balcony is priceless? Park your car and forget about it. Walk to body surf, shop local, and dine out then soak in the sunset from the comfort of your room or the aptly appointed dock and deck. I have visited the Island for decades—this place is a genuine gem that offers amenities at a fraction of the price found elsewhere. Thanks for the stay!

The Anchorage Cape May

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviews5 months ago

We had an amazing long weekend here for our girls' getaway! The bedrooms were spacious and each had its own private bathroom, which made everything so comfortable and convenient. Plenty of closet space was a bonus for storing all our outfits! The upstairs great room and kitchen were perfect for cooking together and relaxing, and the rooftop deck was an ideal spot to soak up some sun. A heads-up for light sleepers: the house is on a busier road, so they may prefer rooms on the quieter side. Stephanie was a fantastic host—super responsive and helpful. This home truly made our girls' trip unforgettable, with just the right mix of space and togetherness! 10 out of 10 - we'll definitely be back!
