We stayed at the Tropicana in August 2025 for two nights, after having a positive experience in 2024. This time, however, there were a few noticeable differences. Last year, a continental breakfast was included, which our kids especially enjoyed. This year, the only options in the lounge were pre-packaged muffins and bagels, which was disappointing. Our room was as expected and consistent with our previous stay, though the bathroom felt more run down. The toilet had stains and an ill-fitting seat cover, and there was black grout along the sink and shower. We stayed Thursday through Saturday and didn’t experience any issues with noise, which we appreciated. However, the stairwell area was not well maintained. Each morning we noticed trash around the stairs and underneath them, though it did get swept later in the day. The pool is a good size and the kids enjoyed it, but it wasn’t cleaned before opening. We had to skim out debris ourselves in the morning. While the pool staff came around mid-morning to vacuum sand, this ideally should have taken place before guests start swimming. Overall, while we still enjoyed parts of our stay, the upkeep and amenities did not meet the standard we experienced in 2024.

This hotel was one of the dirtiest I’ve ever stayed in. From the moment I arrived, I was disappointed. The stairs leading up to the rooms were filthy, and the parking lot for this motel was umm not so great let’s just say. When I entered my room, things only got worse. The room was much smaller than advertised, which already felt misleading. Then I noticed my bed sheets had sand in them, and the floor was gritty as well. It was obvious the sheets hadn’t been changed, and the room hadn’t been cleaned properly before my stay. That alone is unacceptable. The worst part was the bathroom—there was an overwhelming amount of mold covering the ceiling. It was so disgusting I almost didn’t want to use it at all. Mold is a serious health hazard, and the fact that the hotel allows guests to stay in those conditions is alarming.

Nice little beach motel

Cute little place. Parking is a challenge. Small pool. Shower was loud, like the pipes scream. It was clean and great for a beach stay. Would stay again.

The renovations on the interior were great. Parking was okay but you can’t expect great parking in wildwood. They had a huge cracked section at the top of the stairs. It was a nice stay. Pretty quiet. If you’re not a fan of smelling smoke, this place is great as it is a non smoking campus. I’m a smoker myself and made sure to do it off property.

Not bad for price….

Rooms are very small. I asked for a room on the lowest floor due to my son breaking a leg and they gave us a room on the highest floor at the very end of the corridor. The Internet was terrible. They say there’s a continental breakfast but I think they put it out for about a half hour and forget there are other guests that wake up after 6 AM.
