We loved the proximity to the beach, boardwalk, and restaurants. We also loved the layout of the pool. Having an onsite restaurant is also a big plus. The staff were all very helpful and friendly, and there was plenty of parking. We would definitely stay here again, and hope to in the future.
Absolutely exceeded expectations. Great location, friendly and welcoming staff. Clean, upgraded, and comfortable. Pool area is awesome, two decks up top for laying out. Never a problem finding a chair. Family environment.
This is our favorite place to stay every year. The staff are so nice and welcoming and we happened to get the same room as last year which made the experience even more special!! Love the pool love the convenience of being right next to the beach!
I remember this motel from my younger days but had never stayed there. It was very well maintained and the room was clean and comfortable. The pool was great and the ability to order food poolside was quite handy.
The staff was very pleasant and check in/out was smooth. Breakfast in the onsite restaurant, Cavu, was convenient and very good.
There is parking both above and below ground.
I would make this my go to place to stay on any future visits to the Crest.
We had a great time. We will be back. The pool was comfortable, the location was perfect by the beach and boardwalk, the food at the restaurant was delicious. The room was spacious and clean.
This hotel is by far one of the nicest hotels in Wildwood, North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest. Staff are extremely pleasant and helpful. We will be back!
Great location by the walkway to the beach and the boardwalk. The room was small, but had all the features of larger rooms and a balcony. Really good restaurant in the lobby for all three meals. They know how to cook steak to your specifications.
The hotel was great and clean perfect for vacationing with the family. The restaurant however on the premises when we dined for breakfast we were the only ones in there. One of our coffee cups came with lipstick still on it and our to go box had ants crawling on and in it. We were also asked multiple times if we were done with our food while my daughter was still eating. But the hotel itself was great.
Very clean , very retro, very attentive, and polite staff. Beds were comfy. Great view of the ocean. There were some disappointing factors, such as the pool closes at 7pm and coffee is only available from 8pm- 730am. Overall, it's a nice hotel.
The hotel is well maintained, rooms were spacious and very clean. Staff was also good and provided cookies to guests. The restaurant is also very good. I ordered breakfast sandwich and it was quite delicious. Overall it has a very family friendly feeling. My experience was great.I would definitely recommend it.
We loved the location of the hotel. The hotel lobby and pool area are very well maintained. We had breakfast in the hotel restaurant and it was very good and not overpriced. We did have a slight issue with cleanliness in our room, but that was resolved. A coffee maker was not in the room and I feel really should be a must have. Coffee is down in the lobby from 9 PM until 7 AM which seems odd since you would like to have coffee maybe from 7 AM to 10 AM but the reason why the hours are so odd is because when the restaurant opens at 7am the hotel has to put away coffee in the lobby because the restaurant is a separate entity. But should you want a coffee maker in your room, they do have them which I found out upon checking out if you want one in your room. A little pricey for the room size but I would stay here again.
Beautiful hotel and pool area, super friendly and helpful staff, great location

The stay was okay. We stayed over 3 nights. Best part of the hotel is its easy access to the beach and the boardwalk. There was a children’s park next to the hotel which was a big hit. The hotel is in a great location with easy access to a lot of restaurants. We loved the pool at the heated pool at the hotel and it was well maintained.
A few things that were a let down was that we were asked to move rooms after the first night of the stay. I’m not sure how often this happens but it was inconvenient for us with a 1 year old to move rooms. The rooms were fine but would have been great to have a kitchenette. The restaurant inside the hotel was okay, slightly overpriced for the quality I would say.
Overall, I would rate it a 3/5 given the location of hotel and the beach plus board walk.
