We checked into the Caribbean late, and off season. Just as promised, our room was ready, key available. No one was in the office (which was both unsettling and exciting, as if we owned the place), but no matter. Everything we needed was available, everything worked. BUT... the next morning, the Wildwood Crest city employees were terrible! The dumpster crew... More

We first visited the Caribbean Motel in 1979 and thought it was the coolest place. We re-visited the Caribbean in 2011, 31 years later, and felt like we were in a space warp cos it seemed just as cool as ever! The rooms are bright and we love the doo-wop music that is piped in. The pool is warm and... More

Enjoyed a long weekend in Wildwood Crest and picked the Caribbean because it was part of the whole doo wop experience. What a great motel! Feels like you're staying with family and the room decorations are a hoot. Enjoyed the ramp -- not many motels can boast that -- and the outdoor seating. Would recommend to families and vacationers with... More

We stayed at the Caribbean in July, 2011. We had planned to only stay for an extended weekend but ended up stayed an entire week! While the rooms are smaller than we are used to, the furnishings (funky retro looking decor from the 50's) totally made up for the size. The bathroom is very small and completely not updated. It...

Here's the deal: Great property and amenities, owners who care and really treat the guests like family and the staff is attentive and efficient! Ohh, and the price is fair and the location is terrific and the pool is heated and the rooms are spotless....well you get the point. The Caribbean is a no brainer! Simply the value in the... More

We stayed 3 nights at the Caribbean and really liked the experience. If you're looking for luxury you're at the wrong place. But, if you want something fun, with family atmosphere and good value for your money, then you found the right place. We loved the 50's theme and the 50's music playing around the pool and the option of... More

Just returned from a two night stay at the Caribbean Motel and had another positive experience. We arrived early for check-in and the management was friendly and accommodating. She saw to it that our room was cleaned as soon as the other quest checked-out so that we could check-in early. Great location to the beach, boardwalk, bicycle rentals and restaurants.... More

We had a very nice stay at the Caribbean Motel over the Labor Day weekend. This is a very nostalgic mid-century modern motel located across the street from the beach. Very easy access to the boardwalk, convention center and restaurants. The owners pride themselves with keeping the rooms and outside area very clean - which it is. It is decorated... More
