This will be the second time we stayed at this hotel. We love the proximity to the beach and Cape May. They provide you beach chairs and shuttle ride to Wildwood Boardwalk. The only thing we didn't like was there mattress. It was to soft for our liking. And while visiting this time there were a couple of shady characters hanging around where the storage room for the beach chairs.We were not sure if they were employees or guests but they were there every day. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay at the Mahalo again.

The property was clean and appeared to be well maintained. Our room was incredibly small - definitely smaller than what we saw in the photos. You took two steps in and you hit the bed. There was an outlet in the bathroom, and in the main room there was one available outlet that had a light plugged into it. It was nearly impossible to charge anything. I don’t know that I’d stay there again.

An Amazing Place

This was my first visit to Mahalo Diamond Beach and it will now become my yearly get-away place. I absolutely LOVED it! It is right on the beach, the pool is heated for cooler days, they have a bathroom near the pool so you don't have to trudge back up to your room, they provide bicycles and a shuttle to and from the boardwalk. They have nice patio areas if you just want to sit outside and relax. Everything that makes for an easy and enjoyable stay! The staff was also extremely nice. I am so happy that I found this gem, next year can't come quick enough.

The hotel was right at the beach. The room was clean and spacious except bathroom. Bathroom was very small. Other than that, everything was good. Everyone working there is so nice. We loved the pool and sun deck also. The shuttle to Wildwood boardwalk was plus!

This hotel is beautiful and well maintained. The pool and the common areas were very clean and neat. The furniture and the buildings are in good condition. It was extremely pleasant to have spent the last week of the summer here. We will definitely come back!!
