Decided to take a weekend trip to the shore..What a great surprise to visit the Sahara Motel. Was so impressed with the New Owners. They are there to help you with all your needs. We had a fantastic weekend and cant wait to return to this perfect location on the beach and the boardwalk. Thanks for a fantastic weekend.

What a fabulous experience! Probably the best location in North Wildwood. Check... More

Sorry you did not enjoy your stay. The Motel does have security to ensure the safety of our guests. In addition, guests are supposed to inform the office of all guests that are staying on property. OBVIOUSLY in your case you did not, and were unhappy with the additional charges. There are additional charges for additional guests as stated in... More

WOW!!! I had heard Sahara has new Owners as of this spring and are always looking for a new place I can go to. I am in Wildwood many times during the season because of family, but always book a motel, so I can have privacy for part of my regular visits. I just visited the Sahara two weeks ago... More

I stayed at the Sahara for years and years when Kenny and Nick owned it - and it was run like a well-oiled machine. They were always available and they were the best to deal with. Unfortunately, last year we lost my brother who was serving overseas. It just wasn't a good time for a vacation at all so I... More
