About this apartment rental
Enjoy the comfort and ambiance of this circa 1854 double house Victorian, located in the center of the primary historic district.
We are minutes to the beach, adjacent to the main shopping district, and convenient to Cape May’s finest restaurants. You can leave your car (there is one off-street parking space) and walk almost anywhere. We are furnished with some antiques but comfortable sofas and chairs. There is a private deck, with furniture and a gas grill.
Our kitchen has a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave.

We loved staying in this charming apartment on Washington Street. The unit is long and narrow, built in the late 19th century with vintage decor, nicely upgraded, and clean. We enjoyed the convenient location and walking to restaurants and to the beach. We will come again!

This is our fourth time vacationing in this lovely, well-appointed apartment - once as a couple, and three times with our two kids (now 14 and 11). Perfect location right next to Washington Square, steps to the grocery store, and blocks from the beach. Communication with Monica has been consistently easy and pleasant. We've already booked our stay for next year!

We have stayed at this apartment for the past 7 years. It is perfect for us. Close to everything, roomy and beautifully furnished. The deck with a gas grill is a big plus.

I made the reservation over a year ago when I was planning a visit with family members from out of town. At the time, I didn't realize how conveniently located and ideal for a several night stay in Cape May this property would be. It was beautifully laid out inside, clean and convenient for our four night stay in Cape May. It's so close to shopping (Acme) and Washington Square, sites that we visited like the Emlyn Physick Estate and the Washington Street Mall. The only (and I say this reluctantly) inconvenience was the stairs were somewhat difficult for my 81 year old mother who had recently fractured her right knee cap but other than that it was a wonderful place to stay. I walked each morning through the beautiful streets of Cape May -- it was a perfect vacation spot.

Monica answered all our questions and concerns both before and during our stay right away. Loved the deck and BBQ grill!! The beach buggy,tags and Steger beach chairs and umbrella were WONDERFUL!! Would love to stay here again! Thank you for a truly relaxing and fun visit.

Quaint, roomy, quiet, and comfortable. Fantastic communication. Locked myself out and owner bent over backwards to get the place unlocked very quickly. 2 minutes walk from the Washington street mall, 8 minutes walk to beach, perfect location, plus off street parking!!! Will stay again next year!!

First time in Cape May and it was absolutely fantastic. The listing was better than it looks. It was impeccably clean. Dated but we thought it gave a cozy cottage vibe. Perfect location for all the wedding events we attended throughout the weekend and the beach pass was an incredible perk. Only downside was communication with the owner was difficult. Don't forget anything or you may not get it back! Thankfully the fantastic cleaning woman Robyn helped me out in a big way 2 weeks later. Regardless, if we ever make it down to CM again, we will likely stay there.

We had the best time at Stella Maris! The apartment was historic and we spent so much time just admiring all of the old details in the house. The location was prime, so close to all of the shops and restaurants and a 10 min walk to the beach. The hosts had the entire place well-kept and stocked with kitchen, beach and entertaining supplies. We will be back!

Convenient to shopping and the beach. We appreciated having beach passes and chair rental included in the cost to rent the unit. The condo was quaint and just what we needed for a short stay.

We took a quick 2 nights at our favorite shore point to celebrate the season. This was a new place in an old familiar town. We were very pleased with the location and the property. The water wasn't turned on in the bathroom which led to a bit of concern before my husband figured it out:) but then everything was fine! We would stay here again.

The place was adorable, charming, clean!! Plenty big enough for us. Appreciated the available parking. I can’t say enough about the location!! In the middle of everything!!! A couple of blocks from the Washington Mall. We were here for the Christmas Lights Tour and the place was walking distance from practically all of the stops on the tour. Thanks so much!

We came to Cape May, as we do every fall, to attend a needleworkers' retreat. This property was perfect for us! Close to the retreat, close to the cross stitch shop, close to the walking mall. We had a lovely weekend, and this quaint, lovely rental was perfect for us!

This was my third time staying in the Stella Maris and I am already looking forward to the next time! The convenience, amenities, value and charm of this property are the perfect combination to give you no reason to ever look any further. It has suited us for both a family getaway and girl's weekends. Thank you, Monica, for being such a wonderful hostess and allowing us to make more memories there!

We love this apartment - has everything you need for a week at the beach, including a beach box.

This is a lovely two bedroom apartment conveniently located near Washington Mall and a short walk to the beach through the beautiful streets of Cape May. The apartment has everything you could need to cook, bake, grill, microwave and serve a meal or snack. From the porch at night we could hear the ocean waves while reading or sharing time together. Everything about this home is welcoming and comfortable. We loved it and intend to come back again. The owner was quickly responsive and patient helping us fumble through using the actually quite simple lockbox! She messaged us on our arrival day to let us know we could get in earlier because the cleaning had been completed.

We have been saying at this place for several years. Similar to my previous reviews, I will mention the great location, the spacious layout, and the prompt responsiveness of our hostess.
What I will add this year is that the place continues to improve, from the new paint (outside) to new beach chairs, less clutter, etc.
We already booked for next year.

This is our third stay in this particular apartment, and we've already booked our dates for next year. The space is clean, comfortable, and came equipped with everything we needed for a pleasant week. The location is unbeatable - just steps away from shopping, dining, and groceries. The beach is a short walk, and the beach box is a godsend, particularly if you're traveling with kids - no need to haul plastic pails and boogie boards back and forth. The host is very accommodating and always quick to respond. We love this place ❤️🌊

The photos for this listing do not do it justice. This is a well-appointed, charming, and welcoming space with plenty of open room in the living areas.
The bedrooms are also a good size, with the main bedroom being especially large and beautifully decorated. Walking into the main bedroom felt like entering a B&B.
The house was clean, smelled fresh, and had a wonderful central air system.
Personal touches are everywhere and it felt very warm and cozy, more like staying at a friend or relative's home and less like what you may expect to encounter when renting.
The location is in the center of town, the Washington Street Mall, grocery, bike rental, beach, and several museums are all well within walking distance.
We are already looking at the availability for the next year and hope to reserve a longer stay.

Perfect location to walk to downtown Cape May and the beach. Very clean and as described online. I've never had to bring our own sheets and towels but it was fine because one of our other stays on this trip has the same thing. Communication was great. I would definitely recommend this apartment!

We had a great time here, everything was within walking distance, even with two little ones we had an easy time getting around and not having to worry about parking made this much more ideal than our last stay in the Cape May area. The house is comfortable and we had a great stay!

The apartment is cute and had all we needed for a Memorial Day Weekend trip. The hostess was very responsive to questions. The location is fabulous. Ten minute walk to the boardwalk; right near the Washington Street mall. It was a great stay!

The property was nice but the owner was not willing communicate with us to amicably settle a misunderstanding. One set of keys was inadvertently misplaced but not lost. Owner was advised of the whereabouts of the keys on the property. However, the owner charged us $100 with the explanation that we did not follow proper instructions.

My husband and I stayed here 3 nights and loved it. The apartment was in a great location and was beautifully decorated and clean. The furniture was comfortable. There was AC and some windows could be opened for a nice breeze. The balcony in the back was nice, cozy and private. There was even a gas grill. Communication with the landlord was great. Prompt replies and such a sweet person. She was a pleasure. I would love to stay here again. Thank you for such a fantastic VRBO experience!
