The Dormer House location was very convenient to the beach and to the famous Washington Street Mall. The parking is definitely a plus, because there is no parking anywhere when the summer is in full swing. The hostess was wonderful and very informative about the area and local activities, including at the house. There was short story reading on the porch, which was nice for something different. The breakfasts were delicious with generous portions. The room was clean and comfortable. I would for sure stay there again!

My room was clean as was the bathroom. The staff were available if needed but stayed in the background so that you felt a sense of independence as if it were your own property. Breakfasts were wonderful and plentiful. And in the afternoon tea and cookies awaited guests in the lobby. Most rooms require climbing stairs but there are a few on the main floor for anyone with limited mobility. I highly recommend the Dormer House.

Great hot breakfast served every morning was one of the highlights of our trip. The B&B is well decorated and maintained. It is located with walking distance to Washington street or the beach. We have lived there 5 years ago and would like to come back in the future!

Extremely friendly and kind staff. The breakfast was delicious and there were nice amenities. So lovely to have parking, outdoor showers, the towels/chairs, and a nice room for the style. Very easy to walk to everything you’d want in cape may. Highly recommend and would return.
