We liked this hotel and stayed here for many years with no problems, the location is great and staff is friendly. But this past year, we booked ahead and unfortunately it was the hurricane weekend. We called to try to cancel but Linda told us we would lose our deposit if we didn't show up. She said we will have... More

I picked to stay at the Blue Marlin because It is a very family friendly hotel and although the rooms were clean and the staff was pleasant, The NOISE level was INSANE !!! This is by far the LOUDEST place I have stayed in Wildwood. I figured that the noise would die down as it got later into the evening... More

I have been going to the Blue Marlin for 43 years and never want to go anywhere else! It's just like home and Linda and Charlie are the BEST! The rooms are cleaned by the best cleaning staff anywhere and the location to everything can't be beat. Just steps to the best beach in the world. Someday I will go... More

Traveled with a family of 5 (our three children ages from 15 to 24). If you need new and fancy, don't bother. If you want a home away from home with great and friendly owners and employees (Linda is a really great person!) you will find it at the Blue Marlin. If you want to hang out at the Boardwalk,...

I have stayed in the Blue Marlin 5 times over the last 3 summers and you really just can't beat the value. It is about 100 feet from the beach, it is very clean and the people are a pleasure. You can certainly find fancier places, but you will find no place better for the money! I highly recommend you... More

I love this place. It is a wonderful place to go. Every year it keeps getting better. Everytime I am there it is a vacation full of laughs. I love it. The people are nice-- more like family, the location is nice--ten steps from the sand, the beach is nice-- and clean!!!! Linda is an amazing person and she will... More

We have stayed at the Blue Marlin for 4 years now and will not stay anywhere else unless absolutely needed (and this just happened once) but still made it a point to come over and see Linda. The pool is so clean and warm and wonderful. The rooms are always clean, smell good and housekeeping keeps them cleaned for you... More

We just got back last night and this was our 3rd trip to the blue marlin. We could have our pick of any other motel there, but Linda is so very sweet and helpful to us and our special needs son. I would never get such great treatment anywhere else. Rooms are clean. It was fun to have a BBQ... More
