After staying at the John Wesley Inn, I would be hard pressed to choose another place to stay when visiting Cape May again. Hosts Bonnie and Lance are warm and welcoming, making one feel like they're visiting long time friends. The house itself is beautifully appointed with antiques creating a romantic yet casual atmosphere where one can relax without pretense.... More

I can't say with complete honesty that this is the best bed & breakfast in Cape May because this would be my first experience. However, that isn't to say that it wasn't a great place to stay. Bonnie was an excellent host in every way from my first phone call to wishing us a safe trip home at check-out. We... More

Ok... Actually it's the only one I've ever been to. But this place was amazing. I stayed in the Mt. Vernon. This is the room on the top floor in the very front of the building. It let lots of light in during the day and had skylight that could be opened to let in a fresh breeze. The room... More

Just stayed at Bonnie and Lance's John Wesley Inn. I'm fussy about my accommodations, so understand where I'm coming from... The Inn is in a perfect location...close to shopping and just off the water. It is very well appointed, comfortable, clean and the rooms are charming to say the least. The innkeepers have thought of everything...and I mean everything.... you... More

Our first overnight stay in Cape May. Bonnie, the hostess, was very pleasant and willing to help with whatever she could. The B&B is charming and beautifully restored. We loved checking out the antiques and the old photos. Thanks, Bonnie!

My boyfriend & I stayed at the john wesley inn for 4 days during the week in January. We had never been to cape may before, and after reading through MANY reviews of all the inns in cape may, we ended up picking this b&b. We could not have had a nicer stay. We stayed in the stockton room -... More

We went to John Wesley house on our “babymoon”, before our third child arrives. It was very beautiful, quiet and relaxing. Bonnie was very hospitable and friendly. We enjoyed conversation and breakfast every morning. Would definitely recommend and visit again! Thank you!

We stayed here last weekend for a one night stay. Bonnie was very welcoming, the inn is beautifully kept, very clean, the room was just as it's pictured (#6) with a very comfortable bed, cute fireplace and great water pressure shower! The breakfast was delicious and the company of the other guests was nice as well. Location is great, easy... More

We stayed at the John Wesley Inn for the first time for our anniversary. The rooms are beautifully decorated and very well maintained. Bonnie was an incredible innkeeper- she was very friendly, offered helpful suggestions, and is a wonderful cook! We can't wait to plan our next visit@

My husband & I stopped after a long weekend of the fast pace of Virginia Beach. We were very pleased how clean the place was. Our room was beautiful and the breakfast was wonderful. I would stop again.
