About this property

Breakers Cape May - Charming beach block Victorian home

Looking for a charming Victorian home close to the beach AND in the heart of Cape May? The Breakers is in THE perfect location, less than a block from the beach and about a block from Washington Street Mall with its dining and shops. Park in our private lot and forget about your car until you leave.

This classic Victorian was built in 1880 and retains its charm from yesteryear, from the wraparound porch (where you can watch the horse and carriage tours mosey down the street) to antique furniture adorning the home. Yet the Breakers provides modern conveniences and amenities. We have 2 modern kitchens, water (and fireworks!) views from the deck, and 8 spacious bedrooms, all with ensuite/private bathrooms.

The Breakers has been a well-known summer vacation home since 2005. Our family bought it in 2022 and hope to share with you why we fell in love with it. Do a search for Breakers Cape May for more information on the house.

Note: Pillows, bed quilts, bath mats, and kitchen towels are provided. Please bring your own sheets, bath/beach towels, etc. We are happy to recommend local linen services.

A great house for our family reunion! Plenty to space to hang with the best porch, comfortable beds, and it’s stocked with everything you can imagine. It’s in the best location near food, shopping, and a 2 min walk to the beach!

We had a fabulous time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay…only wish it could have been longer! Jennifer was incredibly responsive and kind. We spent a lot of time “porching” and enjoying time with family and friends! We plan to come back for a longer visit in the near future.

My Friends and I had a Girl's weekend at the Breakers. It was more than amazing. The house was spectacular. Excellent location. Jennifer was more than communicative and accommodating. There are 2 kitchens which really helps with food/drink for a lot of people. We enjoyed every aspect of our weekend and would definitely stay there and recommend anyone to stay at this home.

From the house decor to the well equipped kitchen to the bbq area, front porch and top deck… this house is amazing… I fell in love with it. On top of this, the owners are highly responsive and easy to talk to and the location is superb. We were 8 adults ages 39-52 and I know everyone loved it!!!

Wedding Weekend

My family and I stayed at the Breakers for a long weekend when my daughter got married in Cape May. The house was absolutely beautiful and the location cannot be beat!! There were 19 of us and we never felt crowded. All of the bedrooms had their own bath which was really nice. The host Jenn responded quickly and made everything so easy. Staying at the Breakers made a memorable weekend even more so!

Less than a block from the beach and beautiful!

The Breakers was amazing! Our big family stayed there and the adults loved the Victorian style home. Almost every room had an onsuite bathroom. There were 3 refrigerators and 2 kitchen areas. The first floor had 2 living rooms and a dining room that were all open concept. Perfect for a small family baby shower. They also had lots of beach chairs for use.

Girls Weekend Celebrating Mary's 75th!

Sisters, sisters-in-law and nieces had an amazing weekend to celebrate Mary's 75th Birthday. The listing was 100% accurate and this very spacious home had everything you could ask for ... the kitchen had every imaginable supply, glassware, appliance, etc. The location is just two blocks to the beach and two blocks to Washington Street with so many shops, bars, restaurants, church, etc. And, we fit all eight cars in the driveway! Thank you, Jenn, for being so responsive and a great host. We will long remember this lovely weekend.

Great Thanksgiving week

We were a group of 15 family members from far and near, ages 8-93. The house is wonderful, stocked so well and immaculate. And so charming. We left it exactly as we found it. Location is perfect!! It couldn’t have been a more perfect week for all of us. There is so much to do in Cape May this time of year. Trolley rides, Christmas fair at Congress Hall, West End Garage, Washington Street. We even saw Santa and Mrs Claus on Washington Street. I can’t say one negative thing about the house or location. Thanks for the hospitality!!!

Absolute Treasure. Really enjoyed our stay at The Breakers in Cape May. The walkable to everything location near shops, restaurants and the beach was perfect for our Family Reunion. The house was very clean and well maintained and provided plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our large Family. The multiple kitchens had everything we needed for our stay. The beach tags and chairs provided by the host were a much appreciated bonus. The onsite parking was also wonderful and really enhanced our Cape May vacation. Don’t forget to spend time on the front porch rockers to relax after a day of sightseeing. The Host was very responsive from booking through our stay. Don’t hesitate to book this location for your next getaway. You will not be disappointed. It is everything as advertised and more. We will be booking it again next time we head back to Cape May.

A weekend away

We stayed at the Breakers for my 30th birthday celebration and loved the home! Jennifer was a great and extremely responsive host. When we first checked into the house we realized there were no sheets or towels and messaged Jennifer she responded to us immediately. We had some friends bring down sheets and towels for everyone, so just make sure to pack those. The house is beautiful and so unique. Its close to everything so we got to see a lot of the town. Hope to be back when the weather is nicer!
