The location, the tea time, wine & cheese and breakfast...the friendly staff, free bikes and just a cozy warm feel.

It was too cold to walk to or go to the beach but the Angel of Sea was warm and cozy inside. The tea time and wine and cheese were a very nice touch, especially after checking in. The room was quaint and roomy. Breakfast was delicious and generous. I love the time we spent there and will be spending time there in the future.

The location was perfect! The breakfast was above expectations. We enjoyed the view while filling our bellies before heading out hiking.

Food was delicious, room was fabulous!(room 3) Loved the view and the space heater (I am always cold) Loved the decoras well) Just lovely. Staff was super nice!

The room is cozy and warm. Breakfast was excellent.

Parking on premise was very convenient. Complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea and sweets and evening wine and cheese was a lovely touch. We enjoyed all the things during our winter weekend getaway. I want to go back in the spring so we can ride bikes.

We liked how the staff was very accommodating. We felt very relaxed staying there.

Best property in Cape May, great staff that’s always on hand.

The breakfast was fantastic. Plenty of food, great choices and excellent service. Antipasto and wine in the early evening outstanding. My wife and I will definitely return

The staff was great they made us felling like we were all family we stayed 2 nights this a Victorian house very cozy with wraparound porch we will be back

Hosted by The Stanton Family

The Stanton Family
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. We 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. We have the largest private parking lot of any B&B in Cape May so parking is guaranteed. We're a half block to the beach and we provide beach chairs, umbrellas and towels free of charge. We also provide beach cruisers (bikes) free of charge. Our complimentary afternoon tea and evening wine and cheese receptions are very popular, and our 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 by the staff at check-in and you could be assigned a room on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd floor.
Ron & Theresa grew up and raised their family in the NY/CT are. They met in college where they studied and worked in the field of public accounting. They later married and started a family. Theresa also pursued a Masters Degree in Elementary Education and Ron pursued an MBA in Management. For the next 25 years they raised 3 boys in their new home town of Greenwich, CT. Theresa worked as a teacher and later volunteered to lead a town-wide initiative in wellness. She also volunteered and later co-led a 100 volunteer reading tutoring program. She also served as an elected representative within the town government. Ron worked in GE, helping to turn around, grow and ultimately sell a troubled business unit. They traveled with the boys across the country and overseas but also frequently vacationed in Cape May and the Wildwoods where they fell in love with the Angel of the Sea. They purchased the Inn in May of 2015 and made significant investments and improvements. They are year-round residents of Cape May. Their sons Jeff, Matt, and Peter, now men, have joined the management team and are bringing their energy and passion to the operation.
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.
