We stayed on our wedding night on the 4th of July, and we had the most amazing time! Amazing hospitality, quick responses, personal touches, and a pool party really made us feel so accommodated. Would definitely stay again!

8/10 Very Good! (1,003 reviews)

Perfect spot to stay and be close to the boardwalk. You could hear the fun happening during park hours and when the park closed, it was quiet. Great place to stay. We will definitely come back.
