Nothing we’ll be bragging about. Will never book through outside entity’s like Expedia. I’ve always tried talking directly to the hotels reservation. Never would have been saying yes to a room smack dab next to a crazy loud pool area.

Great location near beach with views. Our room was first floor beach front, and we did not have a private balcony. We were able to use the large terrace with stunning ocean views for meals and relaxing. We were very warmly greeted at check-in and with questions we had during the trip. Parking onsite is convenient. Some spots are tight between columns.

The property was very clean. The pool was warm and beautiful. I was on the 5th floor and woke up to the sunrise every morning! My only suggestion is that the elevator needs a good cleaning.

Very nice staff, friendly and helpful all around. From what I have heard Wildwood is motels that are very seasonal, so do not to expect some four star place. It was everything advertised and compared to other places well worth the money. I would stay again.
