Ocean Club Hotel
If there was ever a time to spend the summer lounging by the pool or sunbathing on the beach, it’s 2021. With vaccines rolling out and state guidelines loosening, there’s sunshine at the end of the tunnel. Luckily, luxurious and relaxing vacations don’t have to take you far from home.
The Ocean Club Hotel in Cape May is bringing a breath of fresh seaside air to families looking to unwind without worry. In a shore town where time seems to stand still, the hotel offers modern luxury along with that summertime bliss.
Situated on a beautifully maintained piece of property located just steps from Cape May’s beach and the grand promenade, the resort provides guests sophisticated comfort and unparalleled amenities in a safe, healthy environment.
“At Ocean Club Hotel, it’s about the experience,” says Violet Lumani, the hotel’s marketing director. “The health and safety of our guests is top priority, and we work hard to give them peace of mind during these uncertain times without sacrificing the modern, upscale experience we’re known for.”
High-end luxury is evident at every turn, from the meticulously designed guest rooms and outdoor spaces right down to the carefully curated menus and lush bedding. The entire hotel, including hallways, elevators and lobby, is kept meticulously clean with constant sanitation, improved cleaning products and disinfectants, plus plenty of touchless hand sanitizer dispensers.
Guests willl find a private oasis in the comfort of their rooms. Each well-appointed guest room gives visitors breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean from a private balcony and boasts modern amenities like custom-designed furnishings and spa-like bathrooms.
But there are plenty of reasons to venture outside and experience the rest of the property’s offerings.
The large, heated oceanfront pool is surrounded by plush chaise lounges, just beckoning guests to relax without worry. And if you’re in the mood to sip a cocktail poolside or while enjoying the spacious sundeck, the wait staff is always more than happy to bring you a frosty cocktail from the oceanfront poolside bar, Tiki Ten35.
“People love the pool scene,” says Lumani. “It brings a South Beach vibe to the Jersey Shore.”
Want to venture to the beach instead? Wait service extends there too, but it isn’t the only amenity available to you. Grab your beach tag and order from Tiki Ten35 while beach attendants set up your lounge chairs and hand you a beach towel – services that are all complementary. Beach umbrellas are available for a small fee.
That unbelievable South Beach vibe and attention to detail continues at SeaSalt, the resort’s unique seafood fine dining experience. The hotel’s dining services meet all state guidelines to keep guests safe, and they sometimes produce a silver lining, like when capacity restrictions create a more intimate dining experience. Guests at the restaurant are treated to fresh, locally sourced ingredients paired with specialty cocktails and wines for take-out or at chic outdoor seating in a breathtaking beach setting.
“Whether you’re relaxing by the ocean, at the pool or in the restaurant, you can enjoy some of the unique fusion dishes inspired by the sea,” Lumani adds.
If you want to venture into town, you can explore the streets of the historic area and take in the Victorian architecture, and Cape May’s amusements. Or the Ocean Club can bring the town to you. The hotel and restaurant’s live entertainment, available every night in-season, features the best of local talent.
“We’re here to make sure people have a getaway after such a tough year,” she adds. “We give guests a chance to experience historic Cape May and enjoy our luxurious accommodations while knowing we always have their health and safety in mind.”
