Beach Shack

Incredibly accommodating. I got sick the week of our reservation, and the manager allowed me to move my reservation to the next week even though they typically don't do that. They allowed me to check in earlier than 4pm, had a pack and play set up for our baby, and even offered late check out. I'm sure this wouldn't be the case during peak season, but it was lovely for our fall trip.

They even checked in numerous times via text message during our stay to see if we needed anything.

The rusty nail is on site and we had great drinks by the fire at night, and a great breakfast in the morning.

We will definitely be returning!

Stayed here for the weekend with our dog in the off season. The accommodations were great. Room is super cute and very clean, we had a king sized bed with a couch and double bunk with a gated area out front. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating. Great location within walking distance from all the shops and restaurants and right across from the beach. Looking forward to going back.

Stayed two nights at the Beach Shack and was quite impressed with the room, it was clean and updated and nicely equipped. We didn't make use of the pool but did visit the restaurant Rusty Nail and found it good although they reserve the outdoor tables for dinners and people who are drinking only are restricted to the fire pits or bar.

The check in and messaging prior to arriving was excellent and really gave the the impression that they truly were interested in providing a good service.

The outside of the hotel is showing its age, but overall we enjoyed our stay and had no issues.

This hotel falls quite short on value. For the amount of money you'll spend, you could fly to a nicer hotel in a nicer location, and be ON the beach, not just across the street from it. There's no elevator here so move-in and move-out will be tedious. Multiple items needed repair in our room when we arrived. There's not enough parking for all the rooms they have, so expect to hand someone your keys and go find them again when you want to go somewhere. I could not find one housekeeper who spoke English, and the hotel isn't staffed by anyone after 10pm. That said, the Rusty Nail is nice to be close to just for the entertainment and atmosphere...but for $2K for three nights, there's better places to stay!

my experience here was great! the staff is very friendly, and we had a beautiful view of the ocean and pool. our room was very pretty!! overall this was a great stay :)

The outdoor area is the best part of the Beach Shack. I really wanted to get a fire pit but the seating and availability was limited.

The food was nothing to write home about. Anything the table asked for the waiter said they were either out of it or not serving or anyone because they are closing in a few days.

I booked our trip 2 + months in advance and was looking forward to spending some time on the beach in the sun. Sadly the weather had other plans for me and it rained nonstop Friday Saturday and Sunday or check out was for Monday and that was the only day that it didn't rain. I understand that the hotel cannot control the weather but being that it was a long holiday weekend I would've expected that they would have come up with some sort of events to do indoor. Since we live in New York we had to head home early and we were unable to enjoy the beach. I asked the staff multiple times for activities to do or places to go since I have a toddler and it's hard to keep her inside the room all day. But each time they said to go to Congress Hall and when I asked the staff at Congress Hall they said to use the board games. I was very disappointed to the point I wanted to just go back home on Sunday and when I asked if I could get a refund for the one night they said no.
I was looking forward to this trip since it was our first trip in over 2 years but sadly it was one of our worst vacation. As far as Covid regulations there are none. Nobody is wearing a mask not even the staff or housekeepers.

Ahhh good memories when I think about this location! Yes I was only there for two days but it was so lovely! The only issue I had was getting my key. When I first arrived the artist that I was there with had checked me in so my room could be ready for me. Well they had it under a special name and when I got there and presented that name they guy at the counter seemed a bit lost. After giving him a few seconds a light bulbs went off and I was off to my room...so not to bad. Once I made it to my room walking in was so pleasant! I love the King size bed and the decorations they had. Then to my surprise after passing the king sue bed there was the cutest bunk beds installed into the wall. Oh and that wasn't it, the bathroom was a full out party room if I must say. The whole bathroom is titled so you can shower with a few people in there if needed. They do have a mini bar inside your room as well.

The bed had really nice linen, white and looked very clean. The pillows were perfect! I asked for firm pillows and they provided that perfectly as well! Oh there is also a mirror that is or a decent size next to the bed that I loved as well. They do have a pool but due to the weather while I was there I didn't visit it. I didn't have a balcony since I was on the first floor and the window to my bathroom showed the trash out back which wasn't so pretty but didn't bother me.

My nights sleep was fantastic! I didn't hear people through the walls or have any other crazy things happen that would have effected it.

The location of the hotel is a short walk across a street to the beach and there is also several places to eat right there as well! Look on yelp for the delicious breakfast places!! Oh and Rusty Nails has a dog menu if you decided to bring your fur babies and they are into trying something new!

(*Didnt bring my dogs this go round so I am unsure the prices for pets to stay or if anything special comes along with it. *)

I didn't stay long enough to see how house keeping cleans but for the two days I was there it was very pleasant! I would definitely come again!

Ummm no. This was my third stay at The Beach Shack. The prior 2 times were awesome! The rooms have gone significantly down hill. I understand general wear and tear but our room was DIRTY! The bathroom door didn't shut. There was a spiderweb hanging out in the corner over the vanity light all 3 days we were there. And yes, they "clean" everyday. We also mentioned a questionable bedbug experience to management. They brushed it off and said "bugs come out like that this time of year." Nope. We're local enough. This was not a regular bug bite situation. Long story short- look behind the bed frame. Gross. Love cape may but will never stay at beach shack again. The staff/ service on the beach is great. That's the only plus we took away this time.

Impressive staff!!
I left my credit card at a local establishment who had no working phone. I called Beach Shack where Carsten Greenways helped by personally walking over there, retrieving the card, and mailing it back to me.
In an age of limited and dull customer service, Carsten Greenways and Beach Shack are shining examples.
Thank you!
