We stayed at the Avondale on the recommendation of long time customers and absolutely LOVED it. The rooms are super clean, spacious and comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly and accomodating. The location is directly across the street from the beach and you can sit and watch the dolphins play as you sip your coffee. Can't wait to go back... More

The staff were very accomodating and friendly. Centrally located -great location. Breakfast was very good but 8 is a bit late to start breakfast; that caused a bit of a crowd since everyone was waiting for the door to open. More

We returned to C.M. after a 10 year absence. After reading positive reviews on Avondale we booked our mid September visit (4 nights) here and were completely satisfied. We had a hotel room on the 3rd floor, great view, double bed, wide screen TV, table, 3 chairs, fridg., hair drier, very clean. We enjoyed the rocking chairs on the porch,... More

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights in late August. We booked at the last minute and were able to get a 2-room suite with a king bed in one room and a pull-out sofa in the 2nd room. (Since Hurricane Irene had just passed, we were able to take advantage of last minute cancellations.) Normally our teenage son... More

I’ve been enjoying R&R in Cape May for 30 years and have stayed in a variety of accommodations, including apartment rentals, B&B’s, and motels. Always wanted to try the Avondale because of its killer location and balconies, and after reading all the TA reviews, we booked four nights in August. They were very helpful with our booking. And we were... More

The room was clean, bed comfortable, a smll frig, the ice was on our landing and is free. Breakfast is included... More

The whole place needs a lesson in hospitality .They are rude in all aspects and arenot family friendly or especially kid friendly. i would not recommend this place to anyone ,not even my worst enemy. The lady who works at the pool is more qualified to work in a russian gulag than as a pool attendant at family resort .... More

I enjoyed the location of the hotel. In prior years, we stayed and enjoyed the courtesy of Shiela and Herb. We missed that courtesy. At 11:10, I was looking for a restroom prior to leaving. The owner abruptly told me to move my car. Seriously? If he looked further, he can see my children and mother were waiting for me... More

Family vacation in August 2011. Hotel room was spacious, comfortable, and VERY clean. Highlights include balcony with rocking chairs, beautiful ocean views, and complimentary continental breakfast. Location was PERFECT; beach across the street and 2 blocks from Washington Street Mall. Loved it and will definitely return! More
