You'll feel like you're in the center of a carnival when you visit Wildwood, New Jersey. This Jersey Shore town is home to the famous two mile New Jersey Boardwalk which provides souvenir shops, an amusement park and vendor stands selling anything from funnel cakes to cheeseburgers. Even though the shore's population dies down after Labor Day weekend, there are many hotels that stay open for guests wanting to enjoy the sights even during the off-season.
The Esplande Suites is just two blocks from the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and minutes from the boardwalk. The hotel provides an outdoor swimming pool, a kiddie pool and barbecue grill areas. The orange and blue hued guest rooms consist of either efficiency rooms, studios or one-bedroom suites. Rooms provide mini-refrigerators, DVD players and microwaves. The one-bedroom suites and efficiency rooms also include kitchenettes with cooking utensils and living areas. All rooms offer private balconies and views of the hotel's swimming pool. The hotel is a three-minute-walk from local eateries such as the Key West Cafe, which prepares a varied menu ranging from tuna melts to banana hot cakes, and Mr. D's Pizzeria, which serves pizza and cheesesteaks.
The boutique-style StarLux Hotel provides guest rooms with microwaves, refrigerators, DVD players and free Internet access. The hotel offers on-site laundry facilities, prepares a complimentary breakfast and provides an indoor swimming pool and hot tub. Beach bicycles are available to rent from the hotel. The hotel is within steps of the seafood and American-style Joe's Fish Company, and Oasis Cafe, which offers ocean views as you dine on seafood and sip on tropical drinks. The StarLux discounts your stay when you stay for three or four consecutive weeknights.
It'll be hard to miss the Montego Bay Resort with its stark yellow facade and white balconies. The hotel is situated directly on the beach and provides a sundeck overlooking the ocean, an outdoor swimming pool and an indoor waterpark with a swimming pool, slides, a hot tub and a tiki bar. Rooms include private balconies, full-kitchens, DVD players and dining areas. Throughout the year the hotel offers designated party weekends for holidays such as St. Patrick's Day and Labor Day. Party weekends include breakfast, a beer and food party and a two-night stay at the resort.
