APOLLO MOTEL, Wildwood Crest

The motel sits directly on the beach, with a private beach entrance and outdoor shower for rinsing off sand. The boardwalk is 3 km away, placing guests close enough to enjoy the attractions without the heavy noise and crowds of the main strip. Several casual dining options, including Sun Dog on the Beach, Coronado Cafe, and Lori's At The Villa Nova Motel, are within a 0.5 km walk. The area is notably quiet at night, making it a restful base for families. Parking on site is free but spaces are tight, and rear-to-front parking is common, which can require coordinating with the driver you are blocking in. The motel is 59 km from Atlantic City International Airport and car access is the primary transport method, though the beach location makes a car optional for the immediate area.

The motel does not have a restaurant or bar. Breakfast is not offered on-site. Each room is equipped with a kitchenette including a microwave, refrigerator, stove, and cookware, allowing guests to prepare their own meals. For dining out, Sun Dog on the Beach, Coronado Cafe, and Lori's At The Villa Nova Motel are all within 0.5 km. The BBQ facilities and picnic area on the back patio, near a sandy play area for children, provide an alternative for casual outdoor cooking. It is advisable to bring your own dish soap and check the condition of provided dishes and utensils before use.

The outdoor heated swimming pool, separate kids' pool, and foot bath are available free of charge. The pool area offers loungers and shady spots, with pool hours from 10:00 to 20:00. The pool can become crowded during peak times, and its clarity is affected by high usage. Guests can borrow beach chairs and umbrellas from the office. The back patio has BBQ grills and a picnic area, and a sandy area near the grills is suitable for children to play. The beach provides ample space for sunbathing, swimming, and walks. No spa or wellness centre is on the property.

Free, unreserved private parking is available on site; spaces are tight and often require double-parking. Wi-Fi is free in some rooms and reaches more weakly farther from the hub. Daily housekeeping consists primarily of trash removal and towel replacement; bed making involves only pulling the sheet up. Laundry is available for an additional charge. The motel uses key access for rooms and has no elevator, so upper-floor rooms are only accessible by stairs. The office closes at 20:00-21:00, and early or late check-in/out requires prior special request. The property is non-smoking throughout. Accepted payment methods include American Express, Visa, Discover and MasterCard. There is no airport shuttle or pet access.
