About the host

Hosted by Jason Kliewe

Host profile image
My wife Cynda and I started traveling to Cape May just before we were married in 2004. We always dreamed of having our own home, but couldn't imagine we would be fortunate enough to end up at the Empress. We are beyond thrilled to call the Empress our home away from home. We hope you enjoy her and care for her as much as we do!
Sincerely,
Jason and Cynda Kliewe

Why they chose this property

The historic district of Cape May is the most picturesque in all seasons! Come and explore her for yourself :)

What makes this property unique

All of Cape May is wonderful to explore, but we really love the historic district closest to the walking mall and Congress Hall. It has great walking access to most of the restaurants in town, and also to the beach. Typically we spend a week down there, and although we have access to our car right in the driveway the whole time, we usually end up walking everywhere the entire week, so the Empress's location is wonderful for that reason.
