“The Cape strikes a fine balance, presenting clean, well-maintained accommodations from its motel rooms to its charming individual cottages. Its pool area is a definite highlight, offering a refreshing retreat, and the staff's helpfulness, particularly with dinner reservations, stands out. It's a solid base for exploring Cape May, quietly situated a short drive from the bustle of the beach and shops.”
