We had a great time exploring the boardwalk.. The motel was less than a block from the beach. On site parking for my larger truck was adequate. If we return we would make use of the kitchenette.

We had an amazing visit to OCNJ this summer. The Wild Dunes Inn was great. Very clean and convenient. The only downside (if you have little ones) is the sounds of fun from the boardwalk Rollercoaster. I'd chalk it up to a happy inconvenience 😊

For being off season, the room was well prepared and check-in was easily handled contactless. Location is great being 1/2 block off boardwalk. King bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean but outdated with a strangely low toilet. Would recommend and stay there again.
