WILDWOOD CREST, NJ — Madison Resort Wildwood Crest has been crowned the #1 Best New Hotel in the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards. This honor marks a milestone not just for the resort but also for the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey region. It is the first hotel in this area to earn the top spot in the award’s history, standing out among 18 nominees from across the nation.
Opened in May 2024, Madison Resort Wildwood Crest has quickly become a standout destination. Its creation was the result of a $54 million transformation of two iconic local properties—the Oceanview Motel and the Royal Hawaiian Motel—integrated into a single resort. The renovated property reflects a perfect blend of modern amenities and the timeless Doo-Wop style treasured by its community.
The resort, located at 7201 Ocean Avenue, offers over 200 guest rooms and features two pools, two restaurants, beach access, fitness facilities, event spaces, and daily shuttle service around Wildwood. Its restoration and expansion have not only breathed new life into Cape May County but also made Madison Resorts the largest resort operator in the area.
“We are beyond proud of Madison Resort Wildwood Crest and our entire team that helped to make this dream a reality,” said Madison Resorts President Dan Alicea. “Preserving the timeless architecture of these historic buildings was a priority for us. This project has created jobs, strengthened the community, and provided a place for families to make lasting memories.”
The resort’s debut year brought guests a wealth of vibrant experiences, including unique themed weekends, daily entertainment by the pool, and kid-friendly activities. It has also become a sought-after venue for beachfront weddings, offering couples an unforgettable setting for their special day.
The recognition by USA Today is a significant achievement for Madison Resorts. “This award reflects the vision, innovation, and hard work of Madison Resorts’ leadership and staff,” said the Greater Wildwoods Tourism Authority. “It’s a true celebration of their commitment to excellence.”
