The suite was great for a long girl's weekend. It was extremely clean and really meet the needs for our group of 5. Our only suggestion would be to put up full length mirrors in the bedrooms or the bathrooms.
Stayed here with a family of 4. Easy check-in and good parking. Room was a little dated but clean and worked well for us. Nice indoor and outdoor pools. Close to the beach and a mile walk or drive to the stone harbor shops.
Place was good for a short stay. Room was clean and kept up. Pool very small and not a lot of chairs around it. Close to beach. Own parking spot was nice. Housekeeping every day. Nice supplied kitchenette. Overall stay was good.
This was truly a 5 star stay! We stayed for 2 nights in the off season—late October. The staff were very friendly and kind, even before we arrived! Great communication on what to expect, and they had pool towels and goodie bags for our kids ready and waiting for us! They had an immediate back up plan and solution for when I accidentally locked myself out of the room and were very kind and helpful! The room was very clean and the property was in great shape. The indoor pool was perfect, especially for kiddos! Easy walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood with easy access to Avalon and Stone Harbor. Wildwood less than 20 min drive. Beds were very comfortable, kitchenette was great! Can’t say enough great things—we will absolutely be coming back!
The rooms are spacious and clean. If you are not on the third level you can hear every step upstairs. Was noisy and unpleasant especially when you are trying to sleep and there is noise from upstairs. But overall we enjoyed our stay.
