Hotel Details

Location

Across the street from the beach at the quiet end of Beach Avenue, with ocean views and sunset gazebo steps away.

Set directly across from a calm, swimmable cove beach with wide ocean views and Cape May Lighthouse visible from the shore. The Sunset Pavilion and beachside flag ceremony are 20 yards away. A 5-minute walk reaches Lake View Park, while Washington Street's restaurants, bars and shops are a 10-minute stroll. Hawk Haven Vineyard and Winery is a 15-minute drive, and Cape May Point's lighthouse is within 5 km. The neighbourhood is quiet and restful at night, away from the main party strip. Walking or cycling is the best way to explore, and the on-site free parking (with reservation) eliminates car stress.

Dining

Breakfast options are available seasonally at the restaurant next door; no on-site restaurant.

The motel has no restaurant or breakfast service on site. However, a breakfast-and-lunch spot operates next door during the summer season, offering a convenient morning meal. For other meals, a variety of restaurants, bars, and cafes are within a 10-minute walk along Washington Street. Vending machines for drinks and snacks are available on site. Rooms with a kitchenette allow self-catering, making it easy to prepare simple meals and reduce dining expenses.

Wellness and Leisure

Seasonal outdoor saltwater pool with shallow end, foot bath, and beach access directly across the street.

The outdoor pool is open from Memorial Day weekend through the third week of October and is a saltwater pool (remodeled in 2023). It is not heated, but features a shallow end, a fence for safety, and a foot bath to rinse off sand. Beachgoers will appreciate direct access across the street to a quiet, swimmable cove beach with gentle surf. The property is also beachfront with outdoor furniture for relaxing. The area offers excellent birding, sunset watching from the gazebo, and a peaceful setting for walks.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, free on-site parking (reservation required), laundry, vending machines, and daily housekeeping.

Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Parking is free and private on site, but each room only has one space and a reservation is necessary - no second car allowed. Daily housekeeping is provided at no extra cost, and laundry facilities are available for a fee. The front desk can handle special requests (early/late check-in, room floor preferences) but cannot guarantee them. Security features include CCTV in common areas and outside, key access, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. The motel is not handicapped accessible, and no airport shuttle service is available.
