We have been coming here for the past 18 years, the same weekend in September, and have never been disappointed. The staff is wonderful, friendly, and ready to assist with any need, the facilities are constantly being maintained and improved, and we would stay nowhere else!
Excellent motel and friendly staff. Great value for Wildwood Crest and for the pristine condition the motel is maintained. The location by the park is perfect for families and to listen to the summer concerts.
One of the best places to stay at in Wildwood Crest. We have stayed here for over 15 years . Each year they do more updates to the rooms and grounds. The pool and grounds are always spotless. If you want a very good place to stay, this is the place!
Don’t want to brag too much about this place because if it gets too full we may not be able to get a reservation. Great place to stay. Will be back again next year. Location, location, location plus clean and friendly.
We adore The Armada. A joy to spend time here. Owners are sweethearts. Staff friendly. We have become friends with other couples who return year after year. It is a “homecoming” at the shore for us all. Only complaint — our vacation flies by!!!
My family and I love the Armada! It is a great family place. The staff is very attentive to your needs and are very friendly. The rooms and the property are very clean. It is very well taken care of. A lot of love is put into the Armada and it shows!!
Staying here is like staying at home, but nicer! We have been coming here for several years and can’t imagine staying anywhere else. I can think of nothing negative to say. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be able to come back year after year.
This is a wonderful hotel for both couples and families. We all enjoyed the beautiful pool, the rooms are well equipped and clean, the free wi-fi worked well from all over the property and it is right on the beach! You won’t be disappointed!
