“The owners dont seem to be as welcoming or accomodating”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2011

people found this review helpful

Not sure if its because they usually have their grandbabies to attend to or maybe the nature of the business is getting to be too much. The MRS. acts like she is doing us a favor renting a room to us she used to be very freindly.....they dont seem to like the older kids over 8, who can manuever about on their own at the game room, the golf course is obnoxious, with balls pinging off the windows of the downstairs rooms when they go astray of the course which is right in front of rooms, common sense would tell them to put a barrier up or some kind of protective plexiglass in front...Not sure we will go back again..it will be a last resort if we do...Im sure they wont miss our lousy weeks rental...
The Mr. seems to also seems be watching everyone and it feels a bit like stalking.

“Nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2010

person found this review helpful

Let's face it this is not the Hilton. We don't care, all we needed for the family was clean place near the beach at the right price. We had 3 kids 5, 2 and 4 mths. We had a enough utensils and bowls to have cereal and toast in the morning and a couple of burners to boil water for the baby's milk.
The room is old and defintly needs to be updated but I didn't go to Wildwood for the hotel, I went there to bring the kids to the beach and the boardwalk. The room was there for us sleep, eat and pit stop for our next activity.
I'd recommend this place as nice economical place for the family. We statyed for 4 nights and will come back soon!

“Friendly & Affordable, with perfect Ocean Views!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 August 2010

My husband, teen, & I recently stayed at the Sand Dune for a long weekend. The owner/management are very nice, accomodating, and didn't even charge an extra fee for our 13 year old. Because we booked at the last minute, we weren't able to get an efficiency; however, we had an ocean front motel room, with a perfect view of the ocean/beach directly across the street, overlooking the park/field, at a much cheaper price than the "directly on the beach" motels/hotels. The pool was always clean & refreshing, and having the convenience of a restroom/shower near the office made things a lot easier! The only drawback is that our room didn't seem to have any upgrades in a very long time: No socket in bathroom - just an old lightswitch with an extremely noisy old vent; old, uncomfortable mattresses, and no socket close enough to the mirror for a hair dryer. BUT: We still loved the location, even though we had to "rough it" a bit!

“NIce relaxing stay in a clean, quiet location.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2010

Return visit to the Sand Dune and the owners were great and the motel is clean and well maintained. I have stayed in many of the motels in Wildwood Crest and the Sand Dune is at the tops as far as value.

“Love the Sand Dune!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2010

This was our third time staying at the Sand Dune. I absolutely love this place. The rooms and grounds are very clean. The staff is very pleasant!!! They are priced much lower than many of the hotels in Wildwood Crest. We stayed in a 2 room efficiency, it was great having a kitchen. We saved lots of money by eating in most nights.

The only 2 minor complaints I have, the parking spots are very tight. We actually parked on the street (Atlantic Ave) for a majority of our vacation. The other minor issue I had was they only have 1 washer and 1 dryer to the whole hotel, and they are quite dated. I only had to do a couple loads of laundry to get us through the week, and had to wait quite a while for them to be free.

We already made our reservations for next year, and cant wait to go back! Great Job Sand Dune!!!!
