Location is excellent. This is its best feature. Steps from beach and facing biking/ walking/ jogging path leading to boardwalk in one direction and Diamond Beach in another. Accessible to excellent diner ( on foot) , bike rental and a nearby pretty park. The parking area is very right at motel but there is nearby street parking. Pool is well maintained and nice sun deck that faces beach. Would not recommend first flloor at all. Too noisy and a fish bowl feel. Room and bathroom were very clean . I felt place was priced too high.

Great location. Within close proximity of the boardwalk. First just want to say it was a great couple of days. We had some extra space in our room but location in hotel was terrible. The laundry room was outside our door with staff walking in and out. Then we had a second entrance that went out to the street. Open up your shades and you have the view of parked cars . Outside that door we had a small table with 2 chairs so you can sit where the cars are. Yikes. Pay the extra money for a Poole or beach view.This is our 2nd year in a row staying at Gondolier. Don’t take room 101.

My family stayed in The deluxe room (M). The space was exactly what my family of four needed. The place was very clean and the full size kitchen was stocked with plates, utensils, coffee mugs, coffee pot and pans of various sizes. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The only thing that I wish I knew before I booked was that this suite was down a hallway near the laundry room and across from the maintenance room. There was an outdoor area that was gated off with a small table and 2 chairs that was ours, it was facing the parking lot. Again, our experience was all very positive and I would definitely stay here again!

The motel was in the perfect location- right on the beach and just a couple of blocks from the boardwalk. The rooms and all common areas were clean and well kept. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool after time on the beach. The retro kitchen was fun and functional. There was coffee (including decaf -thank you!) available every morning and a bathroom if we didn't want to go back to our rooms when hanging out at the pool. We also loved the deck overlooking the ocean. I would very much stay here again. I have one reservation: Fox News played in the coffee room, per direction of the owners ( I was told by someone at the front desk that his was the directive.). I was told that I could change it, which I did, but it was always changed back. In a divisive world, it would make good business sense to choose something apolitical in the common area. I suggest a home improvement show, which I have seen in waiting areas of other common spaces.

When I was a child I went to Wildwood every summer. We never stayed at the Gondelier but it always looked amazing. Fast forward 30 years and the property is still amazing. The women who checked us in was phenomenal. She was able to get our room ready by 9:00am so my exhausted wife could nap from our long drive into Wildwood. The maid service was great too. I rarely tip maids but Maricruz was so good I felt she deserved a big tip. The walk to the boardwalk is 5 minutes and the beach is directly behind the hotel. The most amazing part was our room. The majority of rooms are double beds in Wildwood and being a 270 lb man I need a queen bed. The Gondelier had 2 queens in the deluxe room which fit the 3 of us adults perfectly. The kitchen was great too with everything you need to cook (if you don’t eat out) including real silverware! Excellent nostalgia trip and the Gondelier will forever be a part of that for me.
