    We didn't stay at the hotel but we ate at the restaurant inside the hotel on the first floor. The food service was good. Our waitress was nice she took a picture for us when our food came.

    [741] We decided to try a new Wildwood Crest Hotel this year. Stayed here for a week in July. Right off the boardwalk and across from the ocean. We picked the Ocean view/pool side as it has an unobstructed view of the ocean. It's on the side of the building so not a direct view but that's ok. There is a small patio which fits two chairs and a small table. One parking space per family unless you reserve a larger room. We decided on the D room floor plan as it has a separate sleeping room (well it's separated by a accordion door). Our room was on the smaller size as one of the beds were sideways and not directly next to each other. Plenty of dresser space. Bathroom was small so only one person at a time. The kitchen has a full side fridge, electric top and microwave which worked for us. The building has a restaurant which was always packed. It has a laundry room. The pool was large and nice. We really enjoyed the pool. There were a few outdoor spaces which was great as we sat outside and played cards. Plenty of luggage carts to borrow. The two elevators were slow and HOT. We took the stairs many times. Air Conditioner worked in our room, but it struggled. We had it at 61 degrees and it felt like 75 which was comfortable. We really liked this location and will be back.

    Pros: Location, right on the beach. Private balconies. Restaurant on site. Large rooms with full kitchen. Top sundeck. Cons: Extremely slow elevators. Top sundeck furniture is ripped to shreds. Parking garage is very tight. Restaurant is overpriced. Staff wasn't very friendly. Room smelled musty. Tub did not drain when taking a shower. Bathroom light was not working properly. Most of tv stations were full of static and no sound.

    Thick dust on bathroom baseboards

    We have stayed at the Adventurer multiple time in the past 18 years. It's inexpensive and a hop skip and jump to the beach. However, we noticed that it is not the cleanest place to stay. Our most recent stays we were upset with how unkept the room was. There is a very musty smell throughout the rooms. The bathroom was a disgrace. The toilet needed a very deep cleaning. The ring inside the toilet was unacceptable. The baseboards had a thick coating of dust. And there was black mold on the shower wall. We did our best to clean the room with the supples we brought with us. We actually left the room in better condition than we found it. The front desk staff is top notch. If I could give them a side rating it would be 4.5 stars. Super friendly! Hope they retrain the housekeeping on the benefit of a clean room.

    Yummy salt water taffy at check in.

    Really 3.5. Amazing location. We had an oceanfront suite room with fabulous ocean views, from sunrise through moon rise. You cannot beat the off-season price for this room. Could sleep 6 if necessary. Check in was smooth with a delicious bowl of salt water taffy right there to welcome you down the shore. Hallways very well done with ceramic tile and Wildwood themed photos. Right next to entranceway to boardwalk. Decent little pool and sunny exposure into late afternoon. Sundeck above too. Some parts of room updated. Older coach and chair need to be replaced when they can. Bedspreads old. Kitchenette fine and we like having one. These are the fatigued aspects, but not terrible. We did not eat in restaurant but looked clean and nice. But nothing like that oceanfront balcony. We would return off season for the value and the location. We would try summer too if we could get a price point for us. Right on a gigantic and gorgeous Crest beach.

    This hotel is a convenient place at the tip of the boardwalk and could use a little help. I don't dislike it fully but I probably will not stay again, but I'm bougie when it comes to my hotel room. House cleaning definitely has to be better. They need to care about this hotel. It has a lot of potential. Pros: Nice pool Great view Affordable Friendly staff Plenty parking Nice sized room with mini stove full fridge double room. Cons: Dated hotel Room semi dirty Dirty Linen Elevators tough to get to your floor with so many people.

    Nice glassed in area poolside that has TV's

    Stay: midweek, early May. I consider myself exceptionally lucky to have seen their FB $50/night special. I stayed three nights. I had an incredible first night's sleep and awoke and went to breakfast in their wonderful restaurant. My server was Christine from Romania and not only was she very nice but she's a very good server. Everyone at the front desk has been wonderful. Shout out to Mary D. Who went above and beyond acquainting me with what this part of Wildwood Crest has to offer. Two friends of mine stayed there the second week of June and had an equally pleasant stay. I usually stay further up in the Crest at a friend's motel but as they are not open preseason this will be my new place to go in April and May, Especially if they run another Facebook special.

    The hotel is well maintained and has great views of the beach. The room was clean and slightly dated but it's more about the shore and being out than staying inside :) I think all rooms have a balcony which allows you to enjoy the area even more when you are in the room. Heated pool with plenty of lounge chairs with another sun deck up some stairs. There is also a nice covered area to sit and relax if you want to get away from the sun. The hotel is at the very beginning of the boardwalk. You get the best of both worlds at this location, close to the fun but far enough away to just soak in the beach life.

    View from room- shame on the neighboring establishment to let it get this way

    Pros: Location, staff, room was clean. Restaurant on site is quick & food decent. Pool is nice as well as upper decks. Cons: needs updating, ac struggled to work, balcony is small, view was good as long as you ignored the garbage on the street across the way, which is not hotel's fault, parking is ridiculous spots too small, needs to be reconfigured. Elevator way too slow easier to use stairs. I'd go again if updates are made

    Been staying here for a few years now, wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. Supper clean, super nice staff, very nice rooms, underground and out door privet Parking. Can't beat the location less than 100ft from the start of the board walk and. Even closer to the beach. Don't hesitate about this place just book the room and you'll be thankful you did. Can't wait to come Back next year.

    there are not enough stars to give ! we stayed this summer never thought twice about one elevator being down . after all waking is good for you so we didn't mind taking the stairs . And came home to this nice surprise today in the mail . Well done Adventurer well done !

    I wiped the bedroom nightstand. This is the dust on the towel. This is day one of check in.

    See all

    Starlux Hotel - 2queen beds

    Starlux Hotel

    (70 reviews)

    $$

    I'd have to say, I truly have no complaints about this hotel…read more Upon arrival Starlux was easy to find due to its eccentric design and decor. I was happy to find that the starlux has their own parking lot with free and adequate parking. Check in was simple and straightforward. The lady at the front let us know that everything we see out was free to use. Beach towels, boogie boards, sand toys, bikes, kids helmets and complimentary tea and coffee. I only wish we had known this earlier because it would of saved us packing alot of things! We had room 304. To get to the floor there was an elevator and stairs inside as well as an outdoor circular stair case. The room itself was small. It consisted of two queen beds, a bathroom, dresser, mini fridge, microwave and desk. The whole front of the room was a glass window that does not open, overlooking the street, but not the water. The only window in the whole room was in the bathroom. They have an ac unit, but no ceiling fans. The room itself got pretty stuffy due to poor air circulation. I would suggest bringing a small fan. The bathroom was stocked with lots of towels, neutrogena soap and lotions as well as shampoo and conditioner. Everything was suprising clean. The oddest thing was the small wall that jutted out a few inches from the toilet, making it a tight squeeze. The hotel also has a decent sized pool with a hot tub. We did not use them but we had a nice view of them from our balcony. They also have a small game room and laundry facilities. All in all, I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Wildwood.

    The location and service were great. Staff was helpful and room looked and smelled clean…read more Our negative experience was due solely to the room. We booked a "cottage" which was not a one story stand alone structure as we thought a "cottage" is to be. We were given a room on the second floor requiring going up and down a lot of steps. My husband and I are in our sixties and he has great difficulty with steps. Also we were surprised to have no freezer in the refrigerator, no table nor chair. I had to go to the main hotel 2nd floor to get ice. Also there was no simple coffee maker which normally seems standard especially if breakfast isn't served until 8:00 a.m. I told 2 receptionists that perhaps "cottage" should be removed from their website and replaced with a more accurate description. Outside photos of this building might help too to prevent older people with mobility issues from booking in the "cottage". Both receptionists were kind and understanding. One offered to move us to the first floor of the "cottage " the next day, but my husband didn't want to leave his balcony view by then because the room was so small.

    ICONA Diamond Beach - ICONA Diamond Beach lobby seating area

    ICONA Diamond Beach

    $$

    We booked a room at Icona Diamond Beach at literally the 11th hour (3:00 PM on a Friday for that…read moreevening). We decided on a whim to spend the night in Cape May (we were already in Atlantic City), and we managed to score a discounted room through Hotelstonight.com. Our room was bright and seemingly recently renovated. I love the suite effect (bedroom and bathroom away from the sitting area). They have a nice outdoor bar on the beach, but due to the insane wind, it was closed. Tropical Storm Debby was working her whorish way up the coast of New Jersey that weekend. We left the property for dinner, but we regretted it upon our return. The hotel restaurant (Coastal Blue) is beautiful! We enjoyed a night cap at the restaurant bar while we learned a bit about the history of the hotel from the bartenders. Check-out is at 10:00 AM. And they MEAN 10:00 AM. We were getting ourselves ready to go and at 10:00 AM on the dot, housekeeping walked in. We heard them before we saw them, and we said, "We need a minute". It was a little off-putting. We even had the "do not disturb" sign on the door. We did not hear a knock. At any rate, don't expect to linger for even a minute. We were worried they would charge us for the extra 10 minutes (they didn't). I can't help but wonder if it would have been a different scenario if we booked our stay through Icona directly. Hmmm... At any rate, clean hotel with good amenities and shuttle service for local jaunts.

    The hotel it's self is beautiful. Very clean. They valet parking, free. They also have parking…read morealong the hotel. The customer service SUCKS. I think they hire are international people, none of them speak English or understand English. They don't want help their customers. They make you feel like you're inconveniencing them. We had a wedding here, not too sure I would recommend. The Bri is the wedding planner for the hotel. Good luck dealing with her. She is not ever nice. All the rooms are the same expect some have two entrances to the bathroom. It's really too bad because this place could be great if they just hire better workers. Phi is in charger food I think. It was greatest to deal with. He was super nice, very friendly, and fixed any problem you have.
