    The Mission Inn with its sweeping verandas is one block from the Atlantic Ocean. Inspired by Nelson Z. Graves' journey to the Pacific coast at the turn of the century, The Mission Inn is a perfect example of California Mission style. Its stained glass windows, Flemish Gable and latticed veranda contribute to the warm feeling of this al fresco house. The Mission Inn offers you the grandeur of the Gatsby Era. For many years the Inn has been a mecca for Hollywood film start and Broadway show people. Enjoy the same ambiance as Ty Power, Erroll Flynn, Diana Barrymore, Gloria Swanson, and Robert Preston. When you stay an the Mission Inn, you feel that California state of mind. Her guests are colorful! If the walls could speak they would murmur a century of secrets. The Mission Inn is enchanting and fiercely romantic.

    Fantastic Place

    May 08, 2013

    I can't say enough about the Mission Inn, Susan & Raymond run a great B & B. From the wonderful rooms to the common room with places to gather to the food, it is all fantastic! This was our second and certainly not last visit to the Inn. You might not think a southwest style Inn fits with Cape May, but open yourself up to life beyond the Victorian B & Bs. The Inn provides so much from beach chairs & umbrellas to bikes or DVDs & books from days away from the beach. Susan can suggest where to eat, what to see, and where to find that special item you've been shopping for to take home with you. The only thing I can say against the Inn is we can't get there enough (& that's our fault not theirs)!

    It Doesn't Get Better Than This

    April 13, 2013

    My wife and I just returned from an overnight stay at the Mission Inn for our 32nd anniversary. It is just outstanding in every way. From Susan's welcome at the front door as we arrived, to the superb rooms, to the wonderful breakfast we were treated like family and made to feel so welcome in her home. The decor of the Inn is beautiful with a different mission depicted in each room. We stayed in the Santa Clara and it was wonderful with a great shower and an in-room jacuzzi. The little things really added to the experience, like the great afternoon appetizers in the sun room on the side, and the coffee, tea, and other beverages available throughout the day. I especially liked the port when we arrived back from dinner. The breakfast the next morning was great. Possibly the best omelet I have ever eaten, and I still can't believe Susan remembers all of the juices she offers. There must be around 10 to select from. Susan, and her husband Ray have created a great place to visit, explore, and relax. Every review we read prior to our visit was spot on. Our only regret is that our visit was only one day. We plan to rectify that on our next visit! Thank you Susan and Ray for a great visit.

    Short but sweet stay in Cape May

    April 11, 2013

    The wife and I took a little trip to Cape May for our 26th anniversary. We booked a night at the Mission Inn. Our host, Susan, greeted us as we pulled up and made us feel at home the entire time. She was very helpful in suggesting a restaurant to go to that evening. She put out a tasty late afternoon snack for us, complete with wine and other beverages. Breakfast was excellent and very filling. We look forward to returning for a longer visit.

    WOW - extremely pleased

    March 22, 2013

    Stayed at The Mission during Valentine weekend. Hosts were amazing, the Inn was amazing. As soon as we arrived Susan geeted us, gave us a tour, explained everything clearly and in great detail. The "family room" has a refrigerator available for your personal storage AND all kinds of beverages for the guests, including beer, wine, soda, fresh juice & water. Late afternoon appetizers are set out on the counter. You could make a meal of these. At nite fresh baked cookies are on the counter. Breakfasts were exceptional. Presentation and quality were top notch. The hosts are well acquainted with local attractions and will make all of your reservations, make inquiring phone calls and offer suggestions of their favorite places to visit and eat. We plan on returning this Fall. We have stayed in B&Bs all across the country and rate this Inn in the top 3 of our choices. You will not be disappointed. Ray & Kathy

    Mission complete!

    March 13, 2013

    We were here for out first anniversary and we loved the whole experience. Susan and Ray were charming and friendly. The love they put into everything from the decor to the appetizers to the conversation was terrific. We felt very relaxed and welcomed. I called ahead and had roses delivered and Susan was very helpful to make sure they were in the room waiting for my love. A true gem. Don't let this wonderful experience pass you by. Lori
