Wonderful experience

What an amazing experience. This hotel was absolutely fantastic. So much that we were thinking about staying another night. From the start the check in with Kay was wonderful. He was so friendly and explained everything. The room has a great setup. And was so clean!! The staff cleaning the following morning were very detailed. They take pride in what they do. Bed was comfortable, shower had great water pressure and just a great place to stay! Book here! Highly recommended.

Overnight in Cape May

What a great find at Cape May! Wasn’t sure where I was going to stay for the night. I knew I wanted an ocean view without breaking the bank. This checked all the boxes!! They don’t have an elevator but are happy to help you with luggage. So welcoming and super clean place to stay!! Highly recommend!!!

This was our third visit to Cape May but our first time staying at Avondale. We loved the property - it was clean and roomy, the beds were extremely comfortable, there was always hot water and good water pressure, and it was so convenient for walking around the town. We came to see a concert that was postponed from last summer, and the Convention Hall is less than a block from the hotel. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. We will definitely choose Avondale for future visits.
