CASABLANCA
Are you ready to be immersed in boutique luxury and impeccable hospitality? Welcome to your new slice of paradise in Cape May.
WHERE IS IT? On historic Columbia
Avenue, two blocks to the beach and
a short walk to the mall.
WHY SHOULD I STAY THERE?
This boutique bed and breakfast
is unlike any other on the island.
An enchanting beach resort, it was
designed over the course of six
months by owners Kelly Lavorgna
and Andrew Bares, who also happen
to own the acclaimed interior design
and build firm, Evan James Interiors.
You don’t need us to tell you this
timeless, inviting, architecturally
sophisticated space is the work of
professionals — that much is obvious.
The 10-bedroom B&B, located
just two blocks from the beach,
offers a calming energy thanks
largely to a bright, light backdrop
embellished by rich exotic woods,
matte gold accents and decadent,
one-of-a-kind furnishings.
Victorian pieces work seamlessly
with modern, tropical elements for
a vibe that’s elegant yet relaxing.
Glowing fireplaces and luxurious,
free-standing air bathtubs are the
clincher — this is your future happy
place.
But it’s not just the aesthetics
that are so appealing — it’s the
hospitality and attentiveness to
every guest that sets this boutique
B&B apart from the rest.
Here, you can expect the same
high level of service that’s standard
at Casablanca’s sister properties —
The Harrison, Pharos at the Harrison
and The Ashley Rose House and
Cottages.
You won’t want to skip breakfast
— a culinary experience in itself,
with tasty and exotic flavors inspired
by the tropics. And with so many
unique common areas to enjoy
breakfast or the decadent afternoon
teas, your favorite spot may well be
Casablanca’s stunning front porch,
where clip-clopping horse-drawn
carriages provide the soundtrack.
INSIDER TIP Why, yes, the two-story
Paradise Cottage IS for real!
