The hotel was right at the beach. The room was clean and spacious except bathroom. Bathroom was very small. Other than that, everything was good. Everyone working there is so nice. We loved the pool and sun deck also. The shuttle to Wildwood boardwalk was plus!

An Amazing Place

This was my first visit to Mahalo Diamond Beach and it will now become my yearly get-away place. I absolutely LOVED it! It is right on the beach, the pool is heated for cooler days, they have a bathroom near the pool so you don't have to trudge back up to your room, they provide bicycles and a shuttle to and from the boardwalk. They have nice patio areas if you just want to sit outside and relax. Everything that makes for an easy and enjoyable stay! The staff was also extremely nice. I am so happy that I found this gem, next year can't come quick enough.

The property is beautiful we had a good time as a family. We stayed for 3 days, however there is only one elevator which is ridiculously slow and small so that was annoying. Also the bathroom is on the smaller side. There is no restaurant but there is a quick 3 minutes walk to Icona restaurant. It’s a beautiful hotel but needs some improvements.
