Host Info

9.6
Host Review Score
The Angel of The Sea is one of the most unique and beautiful homes. Built by one of the wealthiest industrialists in the US in 1850, the house was a large family summer mansion. It was moved in 1882, at which time it was divided into two sections to make the move easier. The workers were unable to reattach the two sections so they were closed up and finished as two free-standing homes. They were moved once again in 1962 to their current site. They have 27 bedrooms, each with its own private bath. Some rooms have semi-private ocean view balconies and all rooms have access to shared ocean-view balconies. They have the largest private parking lot of any B&B in Cape May so parking is guaranteed. They're a half block to the beach and provide beach chairs, umbrellas and towels free of charge. They also provide beach cruisers free of charge. Their complimentary afternoon tea and evening wine and cheese receptions are very popular, and their breakfasts are second to none. Please be advised that you are reserving a room category only, not a specific room or floor. Rooms and floors are assigned at check-in and your room could be on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd floor unless you've contacted them.
The Angel of the Sea is 50 yards from the beach and 1 mile East of the highly congested part of town. It is next door to two of the best restaurants in NJ. This location is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beach without the crowds, and enjoying a 5 star dining experience without ever needing the car. However, a 12 minute walk, 6 minute bike ride, or 3 minute car ride brings you to the Washington Street Pedestrian mall and its many shops and restaurants.
