Meg and John were excellent in responding to an issue regarding what I'll call "room readiness". They not only had the issue resolved within 2 hours but they also provided us with a 100 refund for "any inconvenience the issue caused". A pleasant surprise and very appreciated.

It was a great size, but smelled like a dog had been there even though no pets are allowed. The water in the showers never got hot. Most of the furniture could be cleaned or replaced - especially the couch and bench at the table. But good location too and 2 parking spots were a plus.

This is a lovely, welcoming home. Large enough to accommodate two couples, but small enough to feel homey and comfortable. Plenty of closet and drawer space. Everything you could need to cook a fun dinner was available. Paper products supplied. The airconditioning kept us comfortably cool in every room.. Two and half bathrooms was amazing. Meg is a wonderful host, quickly responsive. We didn't use the beach chairs and umbrella available in the beach box, but had detailed instructions about how to obtain them. Check in was the easiest we have EVER had in any VRBO. We loved everything about this condo and plan to book again for Fall 2026l

The perfect place to stay in Cape May!

This property is in the best location to walk 2 blocks to the Washington Street Mall and to bike to the beach. We really appreciated the stocked kitchen and bathrooms as they had all we needed. Also the ceiling fans in all the rooms were so nice to have along with the beach tags and the dedicated parking spots. The outdoor showers are really nice too. Such a clean, large property with 3 bathrooms. The owner was very nice as well. They have a beach box with chairs and boogie boards and some sand toys too.

Perfectly cozy & great location

Spent a quick weekend getaway with good friends. Easy walk to Washington Mall shops & dining, several blocks from the beach. We didn't have to drive at all. The location is perfect for adults. The property itself is absolutely beautiful & we really enjoyed evenings in the enclosed porch. The beds were very comfortable & everything we needed was supplied. The host was easy to reach for check in. We plan to return!

About the host

Hosted by Meg

Host profile image
Cape May is a very special place for us. We married at Peter Shields Inn (a must try dining experience during your stay) on Beach Avenue in 2016 so it is our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love the location of our second home on Washington street since it's so close to Cape May's fabulous little shops and restaurants. It is less than a 10 min walk to the gorgeous beach so you really can park your car for the duration of your stay and plan to stroll the the adorable tree lined streets and marvel at the historic Victorian homes. Come stay and fall in love with our beach retreat and Cape May like we did!

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! Whether you want to dine, shop or lounge at the beach you are steps to it all! Enjoy all Cape May has to offer year all year round.
