Apartment was cute and close to the beach. We had two teenagers with us so appreciated two bathrooms and kid bedrooms on the other side of the unit. Would definitely rent again.

Overall Nice property

Overall, this is a nice property, relatively close to the beach and restaurants of cape may. Hotel feel with very basic amenities. There was construction work being done during our visit and men were standing directly outside of the main room windows for both of the days of our stay. There was also quite a lot of noise during the day and I wish we had been told before we arrived.

Overall property was great. One suggestion is that more seat is needed in living room area and mention should be made to bring your beach gear, i.e. towels and chairs.

Fabulous Property!!!

The unit that we rented was impeccably clean and well stocked with all of the essentials of home. No kidding....we really felt at home here. The beds were very comfortable (always a concern at any rental unit). We spent a lot of time chilling out on the very inviting front porch, all within eyesight of the ocean and just a short walk (comparatively speaking) to the mall area. I highly recommend this property!

Cape May

We all enjoyed our recent stay at this property. It is the perfect location. We were able to walk to the beach, mini-golf, the beach and shopping. The kids loved the bunk beds and the beds were comfortable. It is always nice to have a kitchen to save money on meals. It was nicely stocked. The outdoor shower is probably our favorite feature of the property, so take advantage if you decide to stay!

great location and front porch

We came down to Cape May for 12 years and usually rented 1-2 weeks for summer vacations with the kids. Now that everyone is 20+ years old- that type of time is just impossible to get on the books so we decided to look for a place that rented for a long weekend. The owners were very responsive and the apartment is cute and very clean. If there is any way to add a small extra chair in the living room (maybe get rid of the blue table and put something small ) it would add to the comfort level. The Kitchen is well stocked and the island is great for game night and snacks. I am not a huge fan of window air conditioners but these worked well and weren't too noisy. The Location is fantastic and street parking was not an issue. We loved hanging out on the front porch at night talking.

A flawed beauty

It’s a lovely apartment, in a superb location, but there’s no outdoor space at all, no place to hang sandy towels and stash beach chairs. This means tracking sand into the apartment. Worse, there’s no way to sweep or vacuum. When I asked owner if there was a broom somewhere, I was told that they want to ensure that “guests do not have to clean.” That’s a tortured way of saying they are fine with people walking on filthy floors covered with sand and crumbs from meals — gross and uncomfortable. Moreover, on check in we found sand and a used qtip on bathroom floor. Families should know that the kitchen is too small to do real cooking. It’s a shame — a very cool place only a block from the beach. Cape May itself is lovely, but the inability to tidy this place up is a major minus.

Lovely property, close to beach, some issues.

PROS -Very very close to the beach -Lovely, well-maintained property -Beautiful front porch -Bed linens and bath towels provided -Clean and modern CONS -When I booked, listing showed a king bed, which was one of the reasons I booked so far from town. During the off season they replaced the king with a queen and did not inform guests. I was offered no compensation. -VERY small - no closets or dressers. Had to hang full-length clothes on a set of overdoor hooks on the front door. ZERO kitchen storage space - literally. Kept everything on the island or on top of the refrigerator. -Not enough cups and dishes for the amount of people the place is supposed to sleep. -Was given the wrong door code and could not get in touch with either manager for ten minutes. When I was finally called back, manager was not apologetic. -Patio for second floor apartment is directly under the master window so we were woken by screaming toddlers at 7am each day. -Washer/dryer is a combo unit and dries everything on high heat, and there is no clothesline anywhere. I had to hang out clothes in creative places all over the house. -Needs way more hooks for a place with no closets. I wish I could give 3.5 stars because it’s better than average but was not a good fit for us. I think it would be a great place for a group of adults who don’t plan to spend a lot of time in the unit and don’t need much space for clothes and food.
