Indulge in access to all of the glorious amenities of Morey‘s Piers, such as thrilling rides, comfort food, and the sound of crashing beach waves in the distance.

Shore Plaza Beach Resort
We adore that everything at the Shore Plaza Beach Resort feels so incredibly spacious. From the rooftop pool, yes rooftop, to the wide-open guest suites, you definitely won’t feel confined. All rooms have queen-sized beds, and there is an option for a two-room suite. In addition to the incredible pool, is a kid pool, and a jacuzzi for your playing and relaxation.

The pool is also heated, which extends its season. Grab a morning cup of coffee and enjoy a refreshing dip before kicking off the day.
Summer Nites Bed and Breakfast
So there is not a shortage of retro and nostalgic themed hotels in Wildwood, and it is awesome! Here, stay in a room themed around “The King”, a.k.a. Elvis, in case you young ones were wondering. Or maybe you would rather book the Marilyn Monroe room – – either is a great choice. Lots of little touches scattered about really sell the old-school theme. But we particularly love the diner, that serves up a delicious breakfast. Some rooms are downright luxurious, and might even feature a jacuzzi.
The Sea Gypsy Bed and Breakfast
The Sea Gypsy offers that intimate experience if you are the type that enjoys a rich history and lots of details. This 1900 Victorian-style home has been gorgeously preserved and turned into the quaintest of bed-and-breakfasts. Each room exudes a unique aesthetic, and guests can even stay within the old carriage house. With any great bed-and-breakfast stay, comes breakfast of course! And it certainly does not disappoint, with deliciousness ranging from eggs benedict and fresh fruit to pastries. They had us at pastries.
