This was a very clean and comfortable place for my family of four to stay. Close to Acme and CVS. Close to Wildwood beaches and not far from Cape May. Staff was very friendly and helpful when needed.

The efficiency room was very clean. The two fullsize beds were comfortable. Room could use some updating. Bathroom was small. Could’ve used some shelves to put toiletries on. Loved the dog bathing station outside. Came in handy after taking our dogto the beach. Parking spaces were a little tight. Staff was friendly and helpful!

They even were kind and gracious to our service dog and gave her treats a gift and dog bowls for the room they were amazing! Nothing but great things!

Our family loved our time at Sandbox. They are conveniently located near a liquor store, a supermarket and pharmacy all either a few steps away or on the next block. They are very dog friendly and they even gave us dog items to use for our guy. The pool was a fun area with lots of activities to spend time on and life vest for kids to use. Overall it was a very pleasant stay and we would return in the future!
