3-star beachfront resort on Wildwood Crest with Hawaiian hospitality and complimentary beach gear
Amenities
Mahalo Diamond Beach Resort sits directly on Wildwood Crest Beach and offers an outdoor heated swimming pool with a separate children's pool. Guests receive complimentary beach chairs and bicycle rentals to explore the quiet Crest neighborhood. A free shuttle runs daily to the Wildwood Boardwalk and the ICONA Diamond Beach Dining area.
Rooms
Each one-bedroom suite provides a seating area, two flat-screen TVs, and a kitchenette with a microwave and mini-refrigerator. Certain rooms include oceanfront views from private balconies or outdoor sitting areas with chairs. All accommodations are equipped with air conditioning, a safety deposit box, and daily housekeeping service.
Location
The resort is a short walk from Poverty Beach and Diamond Beach Park, two quieter stretches of sand popular with nature lovers. The Wildwood Boardwalk, with its shops and amusement parks, is 3 km away and reachable via the hotel shuttle. Atlantic City Airport is 60 km from the property, making it accessible for regional travelers.
Dining
On-site dining is available at Coastal Blue Restaurant and Star Beach Bar, both located at the sister ICONA Diamond Beach property a block away. A daily continental or à la carte breakfast is served at Mahalo, with a menu that caters to varied tastes. Guests can charge meals from either property directly to their room via a wristband key card.
Family
Children can use the hotel's separate shallow-end pool and borrow children's beach chairs free of charge. The ICONA sister hotel offers scheduled arts and crafts activities for kids during summer months. A resident Macaw named Maui greets guests in the lobby and is often seen chatting with visitors.
