The pool is heated and salt water which was very nice. My daughter loved it. The beds were comfy and it has a microwave which is a great bonus for a hotel room.

Restaurant has very good food if you avoid the pastas. Beach and Boardwalk access on point, free parking spot with room a must. Lacking for price: no fitness center, sauna, hot tub, room service. Free coffee and cookies - but stops at 7:30am. Should at least go until 10 for a traditional Italian brekfast sans cigarette. Understand no bar- not legal there. Pool hours way too limited- closes at 8pm, should be 2am; at least up it until 12 on weekends. I suspect other hotels not so different. Glad we saw it, but point forward sticking to OC, Maryland, or Gulf Coast Florida . Much more bang for the buck.

We had our family reunion this past weekend at the Pan Am and we had the best time!!! This hotel is…read moreSO clean and everyone was so nice and helpful. We never needed anything they weren't already prepared for. We had our dinner in the restaurant and that also was so good, the staff were all so nice and the food so good.

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.

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.

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.

Hands down, such a great experience all around, I truly cannot recommend this place enough! So.... Ok, you wanna head down the shore but u have dogs? It's gonna be tough right? ....Wrong!!! Sandbox accepts pets (for a reasonable fee) of all sorts and sizes so that the whole family can pack it in and have fun!!! My two boys, hubby and the 4 (Yes I am crazy ) dogs... 3 pitbuls and one 16 yr old chihuahua.... Packed up and moved into the sandbox motel for a week and I truly cannot wait to go back Rooms are clean, cool, spacious and comfortable with everything you could possibly need, all at your disposal!! We stayed in the apartment room on the first floor. It boats two generous bedrooms, large, * beds, a jacuzzi tub (that doesn't take away from the bathroom size btw) ... beautifully tiled and fully functional kitchen with all the amenities of home... coffee maker, plates, all cutlery! Cozy dinning area, closets to live in and a fabulous gas grill right outside our door! It was just perfect! Oh and don't forget? Acme, Walgreens, cvs and bars/restaurants within seconds walking from the hotel! Everyone here is just so nice and welcoming, it has a real family friendly feel Oh and the pool?! Fogettabout it hot tub? They got that too bb! I had a hard time leaving and we actually extended our trip 2 extra nights All seriousness? It's been a few since we have been down the shore, and our first time bringing all the dogs... but it was a trip well worth it and long over due and honestly? If it had been at any other hotel, I do not believe things would have been so amazing! I hope you guys enjoyed having us, bc you know we will be back Call now, it's not too late to book a weekend before the weather changes... You will NOT regret this place as a dog owner and a parent.... I was completely satisfied and 100% content with our wonderful vacation at the Sandbox Hotel in the wildwood crest!

I stayed at the Madison (Ocean Tower) and definitely recommend!…read more I'll start by mentioning the three things that prevented me from giving a five star review. First, the elevator was down while we were there which wasn't a huge deal for us but since we were on the 3rd floor it made me wonder about folks with disabilities or any kind of knee or back issue. I felt this was a new resort growing pain though and hope they can get this worked out. Second, and another growing pain likely, while the pool on day 1 was heated and amazing as was the hot tub, on day 2 the heater wasn't working and there essentially was no hot tub and the pool was much cooler, though still enjoyable. The final component is more of a structural design issue that won't change but I thought I'd mention. The sink is outside of the bathroom. There is no sink in the bathroom. This means you need to exit the bathroom to wash your hands. We dealt with it but it's a bit of a design flaw. Now onto all the good! First, when I called about an early check in they said that while they couldn't guarantee that, we were welcome to come and get a parking pass and our pool passes while we wait. I think that's a wonderful alternative! It was much appreciated! Then, when we got there our room was ready! An even nicer surprise since we were about 2 hours early to check in. The place is new with new furniture and new flooring in the rooms. We had an adorable retro-looking microwave and refrigerator in our room. We even had bath robes available. The room was also stocked with really great smelling (green tea and coconut) shampoo, conditioner and bath gel. The pool area is wonderful with a cute pink and white theme. The cabanas are rentals, which we didn't do, but they certainly looked lovely. At night there are fire tables available and the deck has beautiful lighting. There is a rooftop open longe area on the 4th floor. There is also a snack stand right on the pool deck and a restaurant connected to the patio. When staying at the Madison you have access to both pools (though since we were only there a weekend we didn't venture over to spend time at the Royal Tower pool, which is the old Royal Hawaiian pool, and is still in tact with the middle island and large hot tub area). There is a small gym on site (again, talking specifically about the Ocean Tower - not sure what's at the Royal Tower in this capacity). Checked it out but didn't use it. The tower sets up chairs and umbrellas on the beach in a first come first serve capacity but again, a great service. Makes you feel elite. And lastly, something we used a lot, was the free shuttle service. The shuttle service is unique (only one other hotel in the area does this) and will take you to and from the boardwalk, local restaurants or close attractions. Tom and Jack, the two drivers we had, were super friendly and accommodating. Overall, everyone was quite friendly and we really enjoyed our stay. It was clean and comfortable. While we mostly stay in condos when down there, I would definitely stay here again! In fact, I look forward to it! #MadisonMoments
