“It’s been a few years since I have been to the store. I went today to do some last minute Christmas shopping and found so many perfect items!! Great quality, very fair prices, and excellent service! You’re sure to find something for someone if you go. ?”
“Authentic and iconic!Been buying balsamic here for some time. The 18 yr variety rivals some we brought back from Florence years ago. I go through at least 6 bottles a year!!Always friendly when shopping in person and fast when shipping!Today I was gifted a loaf of delicious walnut cranberry bread by the owner. Such a kind gesture.”
“It's such a cute gift shop. Its alot bigger than it looks, and they seem to have something for everyone. There are so many amazing handmade items. You will not regret your visit to this hidden gem!! Here's a picture of a few items I bought for myself. I have bought other really cool items as gifts. The bracelet was made from a spoon that was from the 50s.”
“We discovered this gem of a store today and it was a wonderful experience. The owner Kate was so helpful and has done an amazing job curating a great collection of interesting and useful gifts. We look forward to getting back here soon.”
“One of my favorite local businesses and is one I hope stays around for a very long time. The owner is so friendly I enjoy chit chatting with her when I’m there. Also decent pricing, I’ve come back over the years I’ve been here and always have a 5/5 experience. The decoration there is unique in the sense that you will not find the same kind of items just anywhere else. The variety of items offered are all adorable for any occasion and there’s a lot of great gift potential in there :-) as well as the jewelry, as can be seen with the bracelet and earring set. It’s much loved but after not being worn for several months it got the silvery tarnished look so I’ll have to clean that, but that’s not a problem, just an inconvenience if anything
More importantly, I’d like to address the salt shakers. They’re so cute, and match our set at home well, but unfortunately they are nonfunctional as the holes do not go all the way through, so you can’t actually shake anything out of them. We noticed this when washing them as water was not dripping out, but we still kept them because we hope to find a way to fully drill through. Despite this, family still loves going here and we do not think negatively of the business for it and will continue to support it for many years to come”
“Wildwood on Pacific Ave. So glad I "found" this place. Tons of street /meter parking. The staff was very friendly that I will come back for the conversation. Yummy shortbread cookies. I love allThe decor. I picked up a ton of goodies for the home. I'll be back”
“We absolutely love Across the Way! We stop in here every time we visit the area and they always have some of the most unique items and gifts here. Everything from the toys to the cards, gifts, and jewelry is always interesting and unique and we leave with something. Be sure to check out the other location on Washington Street in Cape May.”
“*Update
A second store! I’m sure it will be more to love!
Villa Gourmet is a wonderful place to find the perfect collection of gifts for that special occasion that needs more than just a simple card or flowers. The owner, Tara, is so knowledgeable and helped me put together a wonderful anniversary gift for my son and daughter-in-love. I’m terrible at picking gifts!! Thanks to this new store, I didn’t have to do much!! I found some great items for my own home too! I would definitely recommend putting on the list of places to stop while in Wildwood! Thank you Villa Gourmet!”
“Cute place! Great nick nacks and beach stuff. Unfortunately the jumbo Bloody Mary olives I picked up (so excited to find). we're rotten! Mush because some how the seal was already opened! Such a bummer!”
“What a wonderful experience shopping at this wonderful place! Pauline was not only responsive, but went out of her way to deliver our purchase to accommodate our needs. Could not recommend her more.”
“We LOVE this place! My sisters and I had an absolutely delightful time today at Stephanie’s! From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the stunning selection of bags. Each piece is unique and beautifully crafted, making it hard to choose just one. The real highlight, though, was meeting the owner, who warmly shared their family’s incredible story (from Cape May to Stone Harbor, Stephanie’s art decorating the walls) and the origins of the bags. It was such a joy to learn about the passion and history behind each item. We left not only with gorgeous bags but also with a heartwarming story to cherish. Stephanie’s is truly a gem, and we always look forward to returning time and time again! Would recommend to treat yourself and your loved ones.”
“I got salsa and pumpkin butter from an event today and the bean and corn salsa is the best salsa I have ever had. Also the sales lady for the salsa is a queen. So so good I should have gotten more jars.”
“The caretaking for the hermit crabs is phenomenal.Once a hermit crab there we had lived for 3 years.Also, Super friendly summer staff.5 stars. Very recommended for kids begging for a hermit crab.Just make sure you take good care of them.”
“Small Crafts always has a great selection of unique gifts and my favorite selection of cards! It is a very special store that delivers an individual and incomparable experience every time. One of the best stores in Stone Harbor in my opinion!”
“Love this store! So many great sea item's. Shells, starfish, sea glass, etc,picture frames n all kinds of souvenirs! I choose a hand painted watercolor by a local Wildwood artist! Very happy with it.”
“So many beach themed ornaments and more! Small family owned shop with a very diverse selection. I wanted a fish themed Christmas tree and they did not disappoint! Will continue to shop here every Christmas.”
“A perfect stop on your beach weekend.
An amazingly curated shop, you are sure to find something in. Handmade bath products and candles head the list of musts but also many other gift options. Something for everyone in a whimsical and relaxing environment. Go!!”
