Escape to the beauty of Cape May Bay in our newly renovated Villas bay cottage, where your perfect getaway awaits!

Nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood just two blocks from Delaware Bay, this coastal retreat offers all the comforts of home. Step inside and discover a charming family room, three beautifully decorated bedrooms, a modern kitchen with top-notch amenities, and a cozy dining room/sunroom. You'll also find a convenient laundry room with a full-size washer and dryer. Outside, a spacious back porch beckons with its inviting outdoor dining table and umbrella.

As you enter the family room, you'll be greeted by a spacious vaulted ceiling and a comfortable seating area that includes super cozy chairs and a fall-asleep-in-the-middle-of-the-day couch, which can also be transformed into a full-size bed if needed. Entertainment is at your fingertips with a 60-inch flat-screen SmartTV. Gather around the large coffee table for a friendly round of cards on rainy days.

Special attention has been given to the kitchen and dining room, where modern touches harmonize with the Cape May Bay ambiance. The fully equipped kitchen boasts all the essentials, including plates, bowls, silverware, utensils, pots, pans, a toaster, a microwave, a tea kettle, a blender, and a knife block. Feel right at home with the stainless steel gas stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher, allowing you to whip up anything from reheated takeout to a low country boil for the entire family. And don't forget to make use of the coffee bar, complete with a drip-style coffee maker (with stainless steel filters)to start your mornings on the right note.

The dining room is a true delight, bathed in the early morning sunlight streaming through numerous windows and a skylight. With ample seating for six, you can enjoy your coffee while enjoying the sunrise. For additional seating, head outside to the deck, where a metal table with an umbrella awaits.

When it's time to rest, the cottage offers three bedrooms and a fold-out couch in the family room. The spacious master bedroom, adjacent to the family room, features a queen-size bed, a convenient closet for your belongings, and a newly renovated bathroom with a custom-tiled shower enclosure and a luxurious rain head shower head. Another bedroom off the family room/kitchen provides a queen bed and a generous closet. The kids will love the bedroom off the dining room, complete with a classic bunk bed (twin over full) and plenty of space for their adventurous sleepovers. The shared bathroom off the kitchen/dining room boasts a full-size bathtub, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring Cape May's attractions.

For your convenience, a laundry room is available for your use at no extra charge (although we provide a few laundry pods, you may want to bring along your preferred detergent /softener). Sheets and towels are provided, however you will need to bring your own beach towels. We also supply starter dish and dishwasher soap, toilet paper, and paper towels.

During your stay, you'll have access to the entire house and the driveway, with parking available for up to three cars. Additional street parking is also available for your convenience.

    We loved our house in Cape May! My husband and I agreed that our hosts (Steve and Chris) must have taken a course in how to host an excellent VRBO house. They got everything right! Every morning, we walked to the beach with our dog; in fact, this house allowed us to walk more than we normally do at home. The house was spotless, the bed was super comfortable, and we had plenty of towels. We didn’t cook much, but the kitchen was excellently appointed. We didn’t use the other two bedrooms, but every bedroom had a box of Kleenex and hangars in the closet. We’ve stayed at far too many places where those touches weren’t available. We highly reconnect this house! Steve was available for us and even offered late checkout, which we didn’t need, but was so nice. Thanks, Steve and Chris!

    A cozy, welcoming home with easy access to the beach and Cape May. The host was responsive and quick to answer any questions during the booking process, which made everything easy from the start. The home was also very clean and well maintained, which made our stay even more comfortable.

    Quiet location for a visit with family. We especially enjoyed the close proximity to the beach for morning walks! The kitchen was well stocked and the space was perfect for the four of us. If we’re looking for a place in the area again, we’ll definitely try to stay here!!

    The host was very attentive to any and all questions I had before our arrival and did reach out after our check in to make sure things were as they should be.I personally managed over 200 vacation rentals in the lower Florida Keys for almost 20 years. Steve and Chris have taken the time and effort to make this a rental you want to return to.

    Impressive home! I’d like to rate it 10 stars but the scale only goes to 5. The owners have a very clean, comfortable, well decorated, well stocked home that is the nicest VRBO that I have ever stayed at. I loved walking 2 blocks down to the beach to enjoy the sunset, or walk a couple blocks in the other direction for som place to eat. If I’m ever at Cape May again, I hope to stay there.

    The house is very cozy with enough room for several adults and a child. You have to be OK with your family watching you cook because they are able to offer ample criticisms in to the kitchen from several angles. The house was accessible for elderly parents because there are no stairs except the entrance. The main bedroom has its own bathroom which again for accessibility is important. We used the 3rd bedroom for storing our bags and for family members that wanted to stop by and visit. The kitchen is well-equipped and there are utensils for the grill as well. Propane tank ran out about 2 days in, but there was a full tank in the little plastic supply shed next to the garage. Easily parked 3 cars in the driveway, single-file and the neighbors were friendly. Beach was very close and the traffic in September was so light that often we were able to walk to the beach without sharing the road with more than 1 or 2 cars. The outdoor wash tub and shower next to the grill is something every pet-lover should have! Super-duper clean and the private back yard offers a get-away space if you need it and it feels like it could be comfortable in any season.

    Our family stayed from 8/24-8/29 and had such a wonderful time. The house was spotless, well cared for, and very comfortable for us and our dog. We loved being so close to the bay, and it was a quick drive to both Cape May and Wildwood. The house had everything we needed, which made our stay easy and relaxing. We would difinitely come back.

    The house is located in a very nice quiet area. The home itself is very beautiful. It’s clean and organized. The guides both online and the book inside the house are great details to make the experience great. I highly recommend staying here

    We loved our time here and would definitely come back! Steve’s place is spacious and comfortable and just a short walk up to the bay (the sunsets really are amazing!). There were so many thoughtful and generous touches from the hosts (well-stocked kitchen complete with zip loc bags, plastic containers, as well as things like fem products, dog poo bags, extra towels, soaps, etc.) It was as if we were staying in a friends’ home, not a VRBO rental. Highly recommend this spot!
