Just a spectacular penthouse apartment in a charming Cape May Victorian home. The apartment was beautifully decorated and had everything you could want or need. The location was just perfect, so easy to walk to the beach and restaurants. Will definitely return

In the center of town.

This property was more than expected. Clean, sleek, and everything you need is provided. The private deck was a great outside space. My husband and I will definitely will be back.

Jackson St Penthouse

The condo was exactly as described! The place was very clean and spacious! Despite being down town it was quiet at night which made for an enjoyable stay! Would recommend to anyone who is interested in a nice vacation to the beach! Only downside was the check in and out process where you have to visit another building a few min away.

Excellent experience

We’ve been to Cape May a couple times, but never had the opportunity to stay directly in town. Coming for a long weekend (to celebrate a birthday and anniversary) we decided to splurge on the “penthouse”. Could not be happier with the decision. Wonderful place, and the single best location in all of Cape May.

Magical

This is what looks to be the highest patio in the immediate area. A wonderful view over the mall. Absolutely romantic. The owner is amazing, his name is Jerry. They are sure to give you a printout with all their tips, tricks, and recommendations. Absolutely would love to stay again!

Memorial Day Weekend trip to Cape May was absolutely amazing, and the Victorian Penthouse was a huge part of what made it so special. The home was so charming, elegant, cozy, and honestly EPIC. I truly could not have picked a better location in Cape May.Everything was right outside the door! Incredible restaurants, shops, beautiful streets to wander, and the perfect Cape May atmosphere made the trip memorable. After a full day exploring, coming back to the penthouse felt so warm and inviting. My favorite room was the reading area on the lower level where you can enjoy a cup of coffee while reading your favorite book or watching the people walk the streets. This place set the bar incredibly high and will be very hard to beat. I will absolutely be back for my next Cape May visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and of course location, location, location!

Delightful spot in a delightful town!

Came here with my Husband for the long weekend after Thanksgiving. This penthouse apartment is magnificent. Cozy. Modern. Spacious. And the bed was so comfortable and the Tub was sheer heaven!! Walking distance from everything! The beach, the grocery store, the shops, the restaurants. Could not have asked for a more perfect location or place. I will be bookmarking this place and staying again!

Beautiful…immaculate….perfect location.

This penthouse property is located just steps away from shopping, restaurants, breakfast spots, and coffee; it was a short walk to the beach. Despite being so close to all the action, the condo was quiet and relaxing. The condo itself was immaculately clean, had plenty of blankets and towels, a well stocked kitchen, and comfy furniture. Private parking was perfect and because of the location we never had to take the car anywhere. We had the pleasure of meeting the condo owner as he owns the ice cream shop adjacent to the house where the condo is located. Such a pleasant and cool guy (he even gave us free ice cream sandwiches-thanks Jerry!) we will absolutely be back!

Incredible stay in a Beautiful Home on Jackson Street. This Penthouse checked every box for us. The view was amazing and it was a short block to the beach and in the midst of Washington Mall. The condo was first rate and immaculately kept. We loved the sitting room, kitchen and bathroom. The view was incredible and we thoroughly enjoyed the sunsets and close proximity to restaurants and the beach. Cape May is a Special Romantic destination and this Penthouse went beyond our expectations. Sincerely, Rob and Joan
