June is the first month during which there are regularly scheduled events such as the famous Skimmer Weekend which involves live entertainment, dance contests, antique autos and more. For a full list of events, check out this calendar of things to do.

June is also the first month of the year during which it is very difficult to find a vacation rental at the Jersey Shore, especially on weekends. Although vacationing at the Jersey Shore picks up in May, it really isn’t until Memorial Day weekend (the last weekend in May) that beach vacation rentals get consistently booked up.

For that reason, we strongly advise that if you are planning a vacation to Sea Isle City or any other Jersey Shore location from Memorial Day forward, you should reserve and pay for your rental lodging several months in advance. While June isn’t the busiest month of the year, it is the first official month of the summer beach season, and gets very crowded on weekends.

In Sea Isle City, there tend to still be rental openings during the weekdays of June. Plus the beaches tend to be less crowded. So we recommend considering a trip to Sea Isle during the weekdays if you are able. The great thing about the Colonnade Inn is that we are very flexible and don’t force you into staying a whole week like many beach house rentals do. In fact, during the summer, we only have a 3 night minimum stay. So instead of paying for a whole week, you are free to save a little money by staying as few as 3 days.

May is the month when things really start bustling in Sea Isle City as vacationers begin flocking to the shore. May is certainly not the busiest month of the summer, but it marks the start of a rental season that reaches maximum capacity in July and August.

The great thing about May is that the temperatures aren’t yet hot, but they are often warm enough (mid 70s) to lay out on the beach. Sea Isle City doesn’t get too crowded in May, especially on the weekdays. Weekends still haven’t peaked, but you will notice that businesses and restaurants start opening up for the summer season.

May is one of our favorite times at the Jersey Shore because it marks the official beginning of the summer season. But we also like May because the beaches aren’t crowded at all even though the weather is perfect. The main reason for the smaller crowds is that most kids are still in school. This changes in June when the pace really picks up.

In May it is not uncommon for us to see college professors from Rowan, Temple or St. Joe’s University, who have just gotten done grading their last exams and want to unwind. College students also like to come to the shore after a long semester’s worth of work.

And don’t forget that Memorial Day, the semi-official first day of Summer is at the end of May. But let us assure you that there will be no vacancies on Memorial Day so if you want to celebrate your Memorial Day in Sea Isle City,NJ , hurry up and book your room as soon as possible.

Sea Isle City, New Jersey is a great place to get away in the month of May. And the next time you are here, we’d love to have you stay at the Colonnade Inn - (psssssss….we have jacuzzis!)

At the Jersey Shore, April is usually the first month when the temperatures are warm enough, and the weather good enough to spend an entire week out on the beach. The good news is that April is also a month when the beaches are still relatively empty.

If you’re into a peaceful but warm Jersey Shore vacation, April might be the month book your trip. It’s a great time to take long, uninterrupted walks on the beach, to fly a kite or to even take your dog out to run freely on the sand.

While most Jersey Shore towns like Sea Isle City consider May to be the first major beach vacation month because of Memorial Day and college students getting out of school, April can often provide you with idyllic San Diego like temperatures and climate.

So why not give April a try for your next Jersey Shore vacation. At the Colonnade Inn in Sea Isle City, we’re open year round, and would love to have you stay with us.

March is still considered “off-season” at Sea Isle City and the rest of the Jersey Shore, but you can be sure that things start to pick up as winter comes to an end.

Many South Jersey and Philadelphia residents enjoy spending their St. Patrick’s day weekend gathered together at the shore, visiting local pubs and bars, and just having a great time. Sea Isle has several bars that are open for St. Patty’s weekend and also features a 30 block St. Patrick’s day parade from 93rd to 63rd streets.

The following weekend, Sea Isle City has its annual Ocean Drive Marathon that normally brings in a decent size crowd. If you enjoy running or if you know someone who does, make sure to let them know about this great event.

Did you know that the Jersey Shore is one of the most popular Spring Break destinations in the North East? It’s true. Sea Isle City always sees an upsurge of visitors coinciding with the Spring Break schedule of many colleges and universities. Looking for a spring break location but don’t want to deal with the huge Florida crowds? Consider staying in Sea Isle City.

Visiting Sea Isle City in March can be a great way to celebrate the coming summer and to begin the thaw-out process from winter. The weather is typically in the mid-50s throughout March which is great weather for a nice long stroll along the beach.

No matter what your reason for visiting the Jersey Shore in March, the Colonnade Inn is open year round and offers affordable lodging in units ranging from 1-3 bedrooms, with great amenities like fireplaces and jacuzzis.

Are you looking for a place to stay the Jersey Shore that provides Jacuzzis and Jacuzzi tubs? You should consider the Colonnade Inn in Sea Isle City, NJ. Many of the Colonnade’s 19 units feature Jacuzzis, perfect for a romantic weekend getaway.

Many vacationers put “jacuzzi” at the top of their list of preferred amenities, but most places along the Jersey Shore don’t have them, or if they do have them, the cost per night is prohibitively expensive. The Colonnade Inn has beautiful units situated in a 19th century Victorian building, but is remarkably affordable. During the fall, winter and spring, rates start as low as $72/night.

So if you’re looking for an affordable weekend getaway at the Jersey Shore, complete with a jacuzzi experience, come see us at The Colonnade in Sea Isle City.

Want to live in luxury on your next Jersey Shore vacation to Sea Isle City? The Colonnade Inn is the perfect place! We offer daily maid service which includes fresh linens, vacuuming, restocking of bathroom supplies and more. So every day when you come back to your room, it will be like new!

Most vacationers in Sea Isle City have to worry about the clean up process, especially on the last day. In fact, some people spend the entire last day of their vacation cleaning their house rental. By staying at the Colonnade Inn, you can avoid the hassle of vacuuming and cleaning all together, and instead enjoy your shore vacation the way its supposed to be spent (not cleaning!)

Although large numbers of vacationers start returning as early as mid-April, most officially recognize Memorial Day weekend as the first weekend in the summer season.

Just like most locations at the Jersey Shore (and most swimming pools across the USA), Memorial Day is typically celebrated as the beginning of summer. As such, there are rarely any vacancies in Sea Isle on this weekend. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, weekends in Sea Isle are bustling. However, in June you can usually find lodging during the work week (unlike July and August which are the most busy months of the year).

To beat the crowds, you should consider coming in early to mid May. That’s the best time of year to get great beach weather without the large crowds, especially if you come during the week. Since most colleges and universities finish their semesters by the first week in May, it is not uncommon for college students and professors to celebrate by visiting the Jersey Shore in mid-May.

Most people visit the Jersey Shore during the summer. But did you know that in places like Sea Isle City and Cape May there are year round activities and available lodging? For example, one of the most popular winter events is the Polar Bear Plunge in Sea Isle City.

Whether you are looking for a quiet weekend break, or the chance to experience the Jersey Shore at a different time of year, the Colonnade Inn is open year round. We’re only a short distance from Atlantic City and Cape May, so why not enhance your visit by staying in a beautiful Victorian building in the heart of Sea Isle City.
