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

A decent, very small family run no-frills motel. NOT for the solo traveller -- but who rather than me goes to Wildwood solo, anyway? This is families only. Obviously a very popular place with their loyal clientèle. However, for an area boasting interesting Doo Wop motels, especially the landmark Caribbean, why stay in a place this drab, unless it's for... more

We were pleasantly surprised by all that Wildwood Crest had to offer, what a great beach town! The Blue Marlin is one of many, many little "L-shaped" hotels from the 1950's/60's. It was a great price for being within steps to the beach. We didn't use the pool, but it looked nice. The owners were very nice at the front... more

The Blue Marlin is a great place to stay. Reasonable rates, clean rooms, quiet, convenient, heated pool and about 100 steps to the beach. Charlie & LInda, the owners are wonderful people and they make sure your stay there is a comfortable and enjoyable one. more

My husband and I have been staying at the Blue Marlin for years now.We love it. It has that "old Wildwood" appeal and the owners are the friendlieast people you will ever meet. I can't thank them enough for making us a part of "Linda Land". We are priviledged to be a part of this family. There is never a... more

The Blue Marlin takes you back to the time when motels were run as family businesses, offered economical R&R, catered to families and weren't concerned with multi-million dollar razzle dazzle of the mega chain hotels/timeshares of today. It is one of the remaining representatives of a nostalgic and historical period of American history and thank goodness it is still here.... more

We visited each morning for a brisk walk & to collect some amazing shells & such. In the afternon for some sunbathing & swimming. If you're... more

This is just the perfect Wildwood motel. It was exactly what we were looking for - older style, excellent service and affordable prices. Located right off the beach in the more peaceful Wildwood Crest with the boardwalk, stores, restaurants... only a short drive away. All we have to say is WOW!! Thanks for everything and we'll be back for sure!... more
