Top Cape May National Wildlife Refuge Hotel Reviews

Olympic Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I like everything"

Reges Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was helpful and very polite Loved that thw beach was accessible and pool was clean."

El Coronado Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a 3 night stay. Was lucky to have our room ready when we arrived early. The location of this hotel was a plus. Liked the Wildwood Crest area. Did not eat any meals at the onsite restaurant but took a look at the menu and choices and prices were good. Liked having the pool and walk to beach was convenient. Our room was clean and had a mini fridge and stove top and microwave and a sink. We did not cook during this trip. But was nice to have and would plan better and use next time. We would definitely come back to this hotel again. I spoke to a family who was there for the 5th year in a row so that says something."

Paradise Oceanfront Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay! Common areas such as the deck, pool and covered patio with grills were clean and well maintained. Our room was well appointed and spotless with comfortable bedding and a well stocked kitchenette. The proximity to the beach cannot be beat. Kelly and Kevin at reception were both friendly, professional and accommodating. I'm very impressed with the level of care and consideration given to the guests' experience. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely book my stay with Paradise."

Saratoga Resort

8/10 Good

"Older property but very nice,very clean, very helpful staff. Recommend it highly."

The Crusader Oceanfront Family Resort

8/10 Good

"No complaints except for the tight parking spaces underneath the hotel. Extremely difficult to maneuver."

Sea Chest Motel

8/10 Good

"The place is quiet, immaculately clean, and close to the beach. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. The owner also was gracious enough to move my reservation by a week due to a work conflict, which was great. I did not give it a full star rating only because it did not have a door on the closet, the fridge and TV were plugged into a power strip and as a fireman, I know that is against code. I also was up with the sun because they did not have blackout curtains, only a vertical blind. These are some recs I would make: The hotel is in a little need of updating. The bathroom is 1970's decor. The blackout curtains would be a plus. Overall, a wonderful stay!"

Coliseum Ocean Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first time staying here, and it won’t be our last. The staff is absolutely AMAZING and so friendly. The pool was clean, our bed was cozy and the room was spotless. Great job to the housekeepers as well. Bonus is it’s right on the beach and the price was great! 5 stars for sure!"

Biscayne Family Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel very clean and nice"
