🤖 AI Summary
Pan American Hotel sits 88 feet from the sand in Wildwood Crest, a GPS-measured distance from the property line to the waterline rather than an address-based estimate. That places it among the closer verified beach access points along the Crest corridor. The property runs an on-site pool, parking, and wifi, with beachfront status confirmed by direct measurement. Wildwood Crest itself is quieter than the boardwalk core to the north, which pairs well with a stay this close to the water for travelers who want beach access without the arcade noise.

Other Top Hotels in Wildwood Crest
Nassau Inn
Nassau Inn in Wildwood Crest measures 20 feet from the waterline, the shortest GPS-verified beach distance in the current 207-hotel dataset and the reason it ranks at the very top of the scoring system. At that distance, beachfront is a literal description, not marketing language: the sand is effectively the front yard. The property also carries a pool, on-site parking, wifi, and kitchenette units, the last of which meaningfully changes the budget math for families staying multiple nights by cutting down restaurant costs. Wildwood Crest itself skews quieter and more residential than the boardwalk core, which suits the profile of a hotel built around direct beach access rather than nightlife.
