My wife and I recently stayed at the Bedford Inn and we were more than impressed. Immediately upon arriving we were greeted by the owner, "Archie" and he spent close to a half an hour giving us a tour of the property and explaining the policies and ammenities. After which he stayed to answer all of our questions regarding the surrounding area, being it was our first overnight stay in Cape May. From the common areas to the room, to the food, everything was first class. We plan to go back as soon...

This is the 2nd time we have statyed at this property in the last 12 months and we love it. It’s one of a few places that has two queen beds so that’s always a plus for us. The property itself is beautiful and the rooms are roomy and feel very airy. We had a room with the balcony and used it for morning coffee. It’s also nice there is a microwave, mini fridge, plates, cups etc. The location is not right in town but you are right across the st from the beach and they provide a free shuttle around...

I've always thought it is important to recognize kindness when it has been extended - especially in today's crazy busy world. And so I share with you our wonderful experience this past weekend at Angel of the Sea!

This is an amazing find tucked into the quaint harbor area of Lewes. The hotel is well-appointed and welcoming and the room was spotless, huge, and beautifully decorated. The little touches really made the stay, from the koi pond on the patio outside to the taffy on the pillows instead of mints. The pool was small but refreshing. The staff were friendly and seemed happy to help resolve any issues. Well worth it!

From the moment we were greeted by Dough we felt at home. We stayed in the new suites with fireplace and Jacuzzi and it was fabulous. The main house is full of character and full of old world charm. Cape May has a little bit for everyone. From the lovely beaches to great antique shopping to the out of this world nature. We truly enjoyed our stay and will be planning a return in the near future.
