Windward House

This is our second time visiting and it is always a wonderful experience. The service is exceptional. We will be visiting again soon!

We have been going to the Windward House for about 12 years now. and each time we leave, we count the days till our return, Sandy and Owen Miller as well as the staff feel like part of our family. The house is beautiful, the rooms are great and the breakfast and afternoon snacks are excellent. I cannot say enough just that we can't wait to go back.

friendly, relaxing, comfortable old world Victorian charm. Take a step into the past and relive the day late 19th century aristocracy with our modern conveniences. Sit on the comfortable shaded veranda to watch people strolling along the street. Take short walks to beach, restaurants and shopping (just like in the old days). Sandy the owner is a wonderful host and we thank her for her hospitality and sharing her love of antiques.

Spent one evening there but wish it could have been more. The home, service and food was just wonderful. There really is nothing more to say. Would love to stay there again and again.

Awesome place to stay in Cape May. Mrs. Miller, innkeeper, goes above and beyond to serve our needs and assure we are happy and comfortable in her beautiful Victorian Inn. We stay at the Winward House every year and would never consider staying anywhere else. Brenda

My husband and I recently stayed at the Windward house Bed and Breakfast. We had a wonderful time. The house is just beautiful. The breakfasts were great and very creative. We enjoyed getting to know the other guests and spent a lot of time on the front porch, very comfortably, with the guest, late into the evening. The room was very private, fresh and immaculate. We were pleasantly surprised when we returned from breakfast to have our room already attended to by the staff. The staff and owners were very cordial and gracious and made you feel very welcome. The location was great and within walking distance to most of what Cape May has to offer. We would certainly return.

This is an excellent place to stay. Be sure to stay in one of the rooms with access to the 2nd floor porch!

The photos on the web site do not do the Windward House justice. The place is very clean, PERFECTLY located, everything within walking distance, beach is 1/2 block away. Breakfast was wonderful with a hot casserole or french toast, fresh fruit, pastry, homemade granola, etc. The front porch is the best part -- large area, comfortable seats, perfect for sipping that glass of wine and watching the world go by.

The place itself was clean. The breakfast was ok but no second selection nor were we asked if everything wa ok. No real warm feeling as far as hospitality goes. Probably would not go back

The room was large and very clean. Breakfast was great. Long walk to park your car in a public lot.

I had a lovely three night stay. The owner and staff are accessible and friendly and it isn't long before everyone feels like family. The location is wonderful, very accessible to the beach and to the mall. Beds comfortable, rooms spacious, decor Victorian. The breakfasts were different every day and the quality of the food was excellent. Highly recommend.

lovely mother daughter set up, lots of privacy, very close to the beach. a nice surprise was the included beach passes, parking and even beach chairs and towels. great pricing

First of all, our room was on the 3rd floor . I counted 30 steps up a winding staircase to our room and we had to carry our own luggage and being both seniors this was very difficult. Secondly, we had to par k over 3 blocks away...no parking near the inn. On 90 degree days walking all that way was not fun. The room was nice, clean and more than adequate but I would not stay simply due to all the inconveniences. No amenities included like a pool or gym. Quite expensive at $230. per night.

Very cordial owner goes out of her way to make one comfortable. Very accomodating.

Windward House is a beautiful place to stay. The breakfasts are delicious, the rooms are spotless, and Sandy Miller is a delightful hostess! The house is beautifully decorated, yet very comfortable. Great proximity to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. We have stayed here before and will stay here in the future. I highly recommend Windward House!

Wonderful stay at the Windward House in Cape May. Great \hostess, Sandy explains many of her accommodations even when checking out she accommodates you for an extra day by offering her outdoor shower and powder room for use for the day. Her home is warm, friendly safe and close to all needs. She offers a good breakfast, and large room accommodations. We stayed in the Cottage room with a large porch for a view of Jackson street. Front porch wonderful and a fine place to meet with guests. A special thanks to Sandy for helping me with my Mom by letting us utilize her driveway for short term parking to make things easier for her to come and go. Rooms are well kept and even offer a mid-size fridge for leftovers and drinks. She has thought of every detail. Look forward to a return visit. You will not be disappointed with this choice!

My husband and i had not been away for over 6 years . The stay here was Outstanding! Great location close to every thing. The service was gret and friendly we would book here again .

I wish to salute the ownership and staff of the Windward House. They provided first rate food and accomadations and managed to give the experience the feeling and comfort of home.

We stayed in the renaissance room which is right in the main lobby area when you walk in. The room is also adjacent to the front porch. Everyone was really nice and the porch was fun to sit on and just relax. We had a great time and I would go back. I just wish it was less expensive and the county didn't tax visitors so much, but thats Jersey.

Windward House is a heavenly place to stay. The Inn is beautiful and charming, as are many in Cape May, but the porch, sundeck and incredible collection of antiques set this place apart. The quantity of ornaments is astounding. One could be there a month and still discover new things. One of the nicest places I've ever been - definitely will return! James Willmott

The house is a great old Bed and Breakfast located close to the beach and town center. The host of the nice is a wonderful, nice and accomondating person who makes sure your stay at her place will be enjoyable!

Hi, the Terrace apartment of the Windsor house is just perfect! It was SPOTLESSLY clean, exceptionally well stocked, and very cozy. I stayed there with family of 5 and it was the perfect size. I do have to say the ceilings are somewhat low which wasn't an issue for us, but if you happen to be very tall you'll need to watch your head.

Best, relaxing time. Sandy, Owen and Cheryl make us feel right at home and assure that we have a great time. The rooms are beautiful. The breakfast is great. We have been going for 15 years and will never a miss an opportunity to stay there.

This was our tenth year staying at the Windward House. The house is perfect in location and it's old world and charm is second to none. The owner, Sandy, does an outstanding job in making us, and all her guests, feel at home and welcome. From the warm cookies and sherry to the delicious breakfasts, time spent at the Windward House is always an ideal getaway.

Windward House is a marvelous example of Victoriana, located close to beach, shops and fine restaurants. Few houses have such an incredible display of period furnishings and decor. One is impressed by the condition of everything for the house is maintained beautifully. The inn keeper is friendly, accomodating and knowledgable about Cape May. It was a very pleasant stay and I would heartily recommend Windward House to friends.

There are an abundance of B&Bs in Cape May. The Windward house on Jaackson street has a nice location going for it. Close to the beach, shopping and restaurants. The house was exceptionally decorated.

We had a wonderful stay this week. The location is in the heart of Cape May and you feel you are in a unique place that exists less and less in America. Sigh. The porch experience is nice once the service trucks are done making deliveries to hotels across the street. However, this is more than offset by the fact that there isn't much thru-traffic as is the case at some other B&Bs we have stayed at in Cape May. Porch is large enough for groups of about ten. Food is great especially for an egg lover. We sometimes see people from past visits so you know the owner, Sandy, is doing something right when you meet repeat vacationers. Staff is friendly when you get to know them by name. We look forward to coming next year!

My husband and I recently stayed at the Windward and loved it. We stayed in the Edwardian room and really liked this room. We had a large private porch to sit out on to watch the sunsets. The breakfast each morning was well appointed and had several items to choose from. Sandy the owner is a very friendly lady and truly loves being a B&B owner. The home is gorgeous inside and out and very well kept. We look forward to returning to this lovely bed and breakfast in the future. April & Ryan Maule

everything was very nice, except the person who greeted us wasn't very friendly, and it didn't seem like she enjoys her job!

This house is located on the best street in Cape May, Jackson Street. It also boasts a beautiful front porch but....the woman (not the owner Sandy) who checked us in and is often in the lobby to "help" guests is the rudest person I have ever met in Cape May. The owners should get rid of her and hire someone who actually likes people! My husband I have stayed here several times and refuse to let her ruin our weekends but enough is enough.

I stayed in the Summer Suite with my wife, on the first floor behind the dining room. While we could hear noise at times, it was the same as we'd have heard in any other room. Truth be told, it was a beautiful room and we had some great privacy in the back of the house. The interior of the inn is unbelievable, you really have to see it in person because pictures don't do it justice. There are so many antiques that everywhere you look, you see something that will catch your eye and intrique you. It's absolutely gorgeous! Breakfast was an omlet casserole dish one day and baked french toast the next. Both meals were very good and I heard many guests talking about the french toast especially. Tea time was nice and informal, with sweet treats to munch on and an assortment of tea. Don't let other reviewers sway you, there were at least 10 different types of tea. The crown jewel of Windward is not the house or the food, however. It's a woman named, Sandy, who put her heart and soul into the inn for 30 years. She is the owner/innkeeper of the Windward and she is as nice a person as I have ever met. Sandy has a true passion for what she does (even after all this time) and when she talks about Cape May, you can see the love in her eyes. Conversations with her really made the trip and both my wife and I are very grateful for all the time she took, shooting the breeze with us. I could go on and on, but I encourage you to book a room and see for yourself. You won't be disapointed in either the inn or the spectacular location directly between the mall and the beach.
