    The Periwinkle Inn offers a prime location directly across from the beach, making it ideal for business travelers needing quick access to seaside activities. The room was clean and met my professional needs well, with a comfortable bed and working amenities. The pool area was well-maintained and served as a great place to unwind after a long day of work.

    heated pool
    beach access
    elevator issues

    The heated pool serves for year-round enjoyment, often sparkling and inviting. The beach is practically a stone's throw away, with easy access for a quick dip in the ocean.

    We ran into a few hiccups during our stay. The elevator was out of service, causing a bit of a slog getting stuff up three flights of stairs. Internet access was spotty, making it tough to get work done. The soundproofing could definitely use some improvement—neighbors were louder than expected, which was a buzzkill for sleep. Not the smoothest check-in experience since the info could’ve been clearer.

    kitchenette options
    elevator issues

    Clean rooms with modern updates met our expectations, and the kitchenette was a plus for quick meals. Beautifully landscaped grounds, including vibrant flower beds surrounding the pool, added a charming touch to the outdoor experience.

    While the location is great, the lack of a functioning elevator during our stay was inconvenient, particularly for those needing accessibility. The room decor felt minimalistic. a refresh in furnishings could really enhance comfort. Also, there was no bathroom access in the lobby, which became a hassle during busy check-in times.

    The room was small and lacked some essential kitchen items.

    I absolutely loved the beautiful gardens and the cleanliness of the rooms. The accessibility features were very considerate for seniors, making it easy for me to navigate around the property without any difficulty.

    More elevators would enhance convenience for seniors.

    The staff were fantastic, they even gave us extra towels without us asking.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but you know what, it was still worth it.

    convenient access to beach and parks for weekend strolls

    I loved sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine, enjoying the beach view, and the hotel was just a few steps from the beautiful Cape May Public Beach and only a short walk to Cape May Rotary Park, perfect for those who love leisurely walks in nature.

    The location is superb, just a short walk to the beach, making it great for families. The pool area is clean and inviting, perfect for relaxation. However, the room felt small, and I faced some issues with staff responsiveness regarding extra towels. Overall, it's a solid choice for a family getaway.
