The location was close to everything that I wanted to do so I just parked the car and walked the whole weekend. Paula gave us some excellent dinner recommendations and she was very helpful with a heat issue we had in the room. The breakfast was very good as well and the hotel was clean and customer service was good as well.

Very nice place. We arrived several hours early and planned to walk around town before checking in, but the owner spotted us parking on the street in front of the building and invited us to check in early. Lovely home and they can easily accommodate vegetarian/vegan requests.

Cape May with Love…
From the moment we arrived, Paula treated us as long lost friends. Our room was simply beautiful and comfortable. From the afternoon wine and cheese to the breakfasts that were clearly prepared with love, we felt at home. It is rare to find this kind of hospitality on the road.

Online photos of this B&B don't do it justice. It is beautiful and immaculate inside and out. Paula and her staff are fabulous. We will definitely stay there again! The only negative is parking. The good thing is, once you park, everything is so walkable, you don't need to move your vehicle till you are leaving for home.

Property was lovely. Owner was curt and not particularly friendly. She was anxious during checkout and practically carried our bags out for us! Was it because we’re an LGBTQ couple or just an “off” day?
