10/10 Exceptional

This is a great spot! Far enough from the boardwalk to be quiet and relaxing. Easy transportation to and from the hot spots with the local bus. The pool was great for my son and I, offering free lunch on Sundays for guests. The restaurant is super cute too for a quick bite. We'll be back!

Average hotel but not a resort

first time to Wildwood. El Coronado was a great location on the beach in the quieter part of Wildwood Crest. Beds and linens were not that comfortable. Pool and spa were nice and well maintained.

Not the worse hotel I’ve ever stayed in but for what I paid, over $500 per night, I would never stay here again nor would I recommend this hotel No WiFi in our room, hardly any TV channels, very limited, horrible towels, the worse I’ve ever used, like sandpaper, parking spots very tight People working there were nice, room was quiet for the most part, the restaurant was good
Mark, 5-night trip

The room we had the shower door was broken. The vents were filthy. My dad wears a cpap machine and could not breathe well. This is our second year staying there. It was very expensive and the rooms were not great. Disappointed
