We had a great time at Beach Colony! Our 4 children loved the pool and the slide. The room was spacious and the entire place was very clean. Leslie was very helpful and was able to beat online prices when I booked over the phone! We love going to Wildwood and this was our first time at the Beach Colony, we will definitely be back!
Amazing place to stay right by the beach. The most attentive , friendly staff. Super clean. Love the pool and BBQs.
Last minute booking to celebrate my birthday! Love that it's pet friendly and they are okay with you leaving your pets in the room. It was quiet. The pool was nice, rooms are clean. I didn't realize there was not a hair dryer in the room or I would have brought mine. The management was great! Addressed me by name upon arrival and very informative. Gave me a list of all dog friendly places in the area. I would definitely stay here in the future especially with the pups!
I have been coming here for years with my family and our dogs. Leslie is the sweetest! Super clean, lovely pool, and it’s right next to the beach :) thank you again for an amazing vacation!
At the last minute I needed an affordable place to stay that welcomed dogs. Lucky for me, the Beach Colony had a room available for the nights I needed. I love Wildwood Crest, and I like to be as far away from the bustle of the boardwalk as possible. Both the motel and the surrounding area are *quiet* and less than a block away from the beach. I love a classic motel and the funkier the bedspreads and the bathroom tile, the better. The pool was lovely and the staff could not be friendlier or more helpful. I hope to stay there again!
The facility is well maintained. Very clean. Laundry on site. Close beach Pool excellent. The manager is wonderful!! Definitely stay again!! Dog beach 1 mile. Great stay!!
The pool is nice,rooms are clean. Decent location. Little outdated rooms,. Parking spaces should be numbered. Parking spaces are small. Biggest thing is mattresses are uncomfortable and noisy. Good service. Leslie at front desk is very hospitable.
We absolutely love the Beach Colony Resort and return here often, it’s truly our go-to place whenever we visit Wildwood Crest. Every stay is consistently excellent, which is why we keep coming back. The resort is always spotlessly clean, and the beds are incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax and feel at home. One of our favorite parts is that it’s dog-friendly, so we can bring our dog, Winnie, who is always just as happy to be there as we are. The location is perfect—close to the beach and boardwalk—yet still quiet and relaxing. It’s clear that the property is very well cared for, and that attention to detail really shows. Beach Colony Resort feels familiar, welcoming, and reliable in the best way. We wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Wildwood and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, pet-friendly place they’ll want to return to again and again.
