What guests think
At Shalimar Resort, travellers describe a family‑friendly retro property close to the beach, with a heated pool and casual games, comfortable rooms that can feel dated with small bathrooms, generally friendly service, and parking spaces that are quite tight.
Most guests find the property and pool areas clean, though a few report strong cleaning odors or missed spots. Rooms are comfortable but older in style, with some light leakage from blinds and occasional noise near the pool on lower floors. Service is widely praised as friendly and accommodating, though a handful cite limited desk hours, inconsistent follow-up, or policy frustrations. Expect a simple, family-oriented beach stay with retro charm and practical amenities.

Me and my family enjoyed the Shalimar , it was easy check in and out. The room was very nice and the view was great , the walk to the beach was easy. Everyone was nice that worked at the property. I like the pool , very clean , also had a diving board which people really seemed to enjoy. The mini golf was cute , the "game room" was ok not much but ok. If there were some downfalls it would be the shower water temp was just warm, not much of a hot shower , and towels could use some updating. But the overall room was clean and housekeeping was good. Had fresh towels everyday except one day but had pleanty left from previous day. I would say this is a great place to stay you wont be disappointed , we stayed all week.

We stayed at Shalimar over the weekend and absolutely enjoyed our stay. Clean property with mini golf, table tennis, arcade room and heated pool gave my son plenty to do while we were at the property. The front desk lady was super nice and very welcoming, and made us feel like home. Overall it was a very pleasant stay, we will definitely come back.

Good location for those who want to travel to the Wildwood Boardwalk, and close enough to Cape May. I had a few recommendations, which I told the front desk about. They use a very strong sweet, obnoxious smelling deodorizer or cleanser that those of us with allergies or asthma find irritating. And, they could use some safety strips in the showers, and she said they are working on that. Very nice heated pool, and outside bar-b-que area, little mini-golf, arcade room, and corn hole all available.

We loved the location, pool, and staff. We struggled to park a van in smaller spots in their lot, but there was free street parking when spots were limited/too tight for a minivan. We hope to be back.

Our room was GREAT. It was clean, had a full size fridge and a microwave. The beds were comfortable enough, with different pillow options. The beach is walkable & the boardwalk is reachable via the Jitney ($3.00pp each way). We spent the whole day in the pool for several days. 10/10 - would recommend.

First time staying and it was a decent stay. A mix of an old bathroom and new furniture in the room we booked, but that was expected. The beds were very comfortable and we actually slept very well. Wish the blinds on the front window were a bit thicker as it let some unwanted light in when morning arrived. Plenty of towels for everyone and the body wash, shampoo, and conditioner were fantastic. One concern I had, which is such a regular theme with Wildwood hotels, is that it could use a deep clean. Like deep clean the HVAC vents that are visible, furniture, walls, etc. Sometimes when I see something that was such an easy item to clean is missed, it brings doubt as to what is actually cleaned and sanitized. And therefore affects whether I stay there again.

The overwhelming smell of the cleaning solution used made it almost unbearable to stay even after airing out the place. The room was clean except for the couch which was so old and dirty that we put down towels before sitting down. The staff were very friendly.

It was clean. The lobby does not open until 8am. The room area looked newly painted but the bathroom was outdated and towels were thin and really need replaced. You need two towels to take a shower. Keurig in lobby is nice but coffee in the rooms are more convenient. Would stay again

This is a nice place to stay that doesn’t cost too much. Room was very clean and spacious. Having the extra sink outside the bathroom is a plus when 2 people are trying to get ready. Towels are small and thin but we had plenty. Bathroom is very outdated but clean. One parking spot per car and spots are very narrow. Plenty of street parking though. Great location. Front desk staff very friendly.

Rooms where smaller than in the pictures. We booked a room for 6 people and the double queen room was tight and the pull out couch was not comfortable. We needed to request extra pillows for the bed. The blinds didn't close completely, and the lady and the front desk came right up to fix them. The staff at the front desk were very nice and accommodating. Location is great, less than 2 blocks from the ocean.

We enjoyed our five night stay. Room was clean and comfortable, though could use some upgrades. The room with the kitchenette has a tiny bathroom - so small that when you open the door, it hits the toilet. If you have small children, be advised that there is no extra latch from the inside. Also, the pool fence does latch but when people come and go, they often leave it unlatched. Just something to be aware of if you have a toddler. All in all, the stay was good and staff was kind and courteous.

Lovely old motel. Although it’s probably vintage 60s, it’s extremely clean and comfortable. Normally rooms this close to the beach have a musty smell but not this place. Would absolutely stay there again! We stayed in the off-season and had the beach pretty much to ourselves!

The property is fine, though very dated. The problem was that the staff quits work at 5 PM, so if you arrive later than that there is no one to give you a key or get you on the internet. Luckily we arrived at 3 and got to talk to a staff member, but if we had arrived much later--as we originally planned--we would have been out of luck. Also, we found that almost all the restaurants were closed in early october. We spent an hour looking for somewhere to eat. I am sure it is different in summer, but beware in the fall!

Would have been a better rating but we mentionned twice that our daugther that was sleeping on the sofa got bitten multiple time. The cleanness of the sofa bed was also hawfull, the sheet were stained. Cleaning staff was also not friendly and very rude so we stopped asking for it. End result we had to leave our clothes and luggages outside and wash it very hot. Staff said twice dont worry the manager will call you and obviously no calls. Very disapointed in terms of experience.

The Shalimar is our go to destination in Wildwood. Property is clean and quiet, beds are super comfortable. Staff is friendly and accommodating . Appreciated the toaster in the kitchen area allowing us to have breakfast in our room. Hotel is close enough to the Crest bandshell that we were able to enjoy three outdoor concerts during our stay. Hotel is easy walking distance to boardwalk and beach is just steps away.

Very friendly staff. Clean smelled like bleach. Had to air out. My mini fridge broke but was replaced within 15mins. Close to beach. Shuttle to stop to boardwalk right in front. Rooms are quite. Already reserved my room for next year.

Excellent front desk staff! Very friendly housekeeping too! Rooms are a little dated but relatively clean. Location to beach was good. Lots of dining options to drive to, some close enough to walk. I would recommend!

Clean, basic, close to beach and boardwalk but far enough away that the sound and mayhem didn’t travel…bike shop down the street made the boardwalk SUPER accessible.

The lay out of the property, many different activities, close to beach, nice balconies with good views. First time there, looking forward to returning next year.

Me and my family enjoyed the Shalimar , it was easy check in and out. The room was very nice and the view was great , the walk to the beach was easy. Everyone was nice that worked at the property. I like the pool , very clean , also had a diving board which people really seemed to enjoy. The mini golf was cute , the "game room" was ok not much but ok. If there were some downfalls it would be the shower water temp was just warm, not much of a hot shower , and towels could use some updating. But the overall room was clean and housekeeping was good. Had fresh towels everyday except one day but had pleanty left from previous day. I would say this is a great place to stay you wont be disappointed , we stayed all week.

The price was right for the Week of July 4th. The first thing we noticed was that there were a lot of unsupervised kids running up and down the hallway late into our first night which was very annoying because we couldn’t get to sleep. That is more of a reflection on the parents than it is the hotel. There was also a water/sewer main break the day we arrived so water pressure and hot water were affected. Once again, this was out of the hotels control. We also missed having our room made up the one full day we were there. I feel like they could have circled back to make up the room but didn’t. We were out of it most of the day so I’m not sure why it wasn’t done. We had a few bad experiences but all in all not a bad place to stay and the property seems fairly well maintained. On the next trip I will pay more to have a restaurant on the premises. The morale of the story is you get what you pay for.

The property is fine, though very dated. The problem was that the staff quits work at 5 PM, so if you arrive later than that there is no one to give you a key or get you on the internet. Luckily we arrived at 3 and got to talk to a staff member, but if we had arrived much later--as we originally planned--we would have been out of luck. Also, we found that almost all the restaurants were closed in early october. We spent an hour looking for somewhere to eat. I am sure it is different in summer, but beware in the fall!

Good location for those who want to travel to the Wildwood Boardwalk, and close enough to Cape May. I had a few recommendations, which I told the front desk about. They use a very strong sweet, obnoxious smelling deodorizer or cleanser that those of us with allergies or asthma find irritating. And, they could use some safety strips in the showers, and she said they are working on that. Very nice heated pool, and outside bar-b-que area, little mini-golf, arcade room, and corn hole all available.

Great time staying at the hotel. From the cleanliness to the walkable distance to the beach and restaurants, grills to cook on- we enjoyed our time. Good luck parking your car and getting out of your vehicle in the very tight parking spaces on their lot.

It was clean. The lobby does not open until 8am. The room area looked newly painted but the bathroom was outdated and towels were thin and really need replaced. You need two towels to take a shower. Keurig in lobby is nice but coffee in the rooms are more convenient. Would stay again

I liked pretty much everything about the place except the fact the coffee pot didn’t come with coffee and they said I’d have to go but my own grounds which was strange and weirdly inconvenient not even that infuriating
