Unforgettable Wedding Experience from Start to Finish
Pros:

We had our wedding at ICONA Diamond Beach, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish—not just for us, but for all of our guests.

From a hotel perspective, the property is incredibly clean and well-maintained. Everything feels fresh, modern, and thoughtfully cared for, from the guest rooms to the common spaces to the beachfront areas. It created such a comfortable and welcoming environment for a full wedding weekend.

From a wedding standpoint, the planning process was seamless and highly personalized. The team was organized, communicative, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was exactly how we envisioned. By the time our wedding day arrived, we felt completely at ease.

They also provided us with an incredible bridal suite, which had a beautiful view and was the perfect space to relax, get ready, and spend time with my bridal party before everything began. It made such a difference in setting the tone for the day.

What stood out most was the staff. Every single person we interacted with was professional, kind, and attentive. They handled multi-day guest arrivals, welcome bags, and special requests flawlessly, and always with a positive attitude. Nothing felt too big or too small—they truly went above and beyond.

Our guests are still talking about how wonderful their experience was. If you're looking for a clean, beautiful beachfront property with an outstanding team—especially for a wedding—ICONA Diamond Beach is an amazing choice.

Thanks Icona!
Pros:

I went to Icona Diamond Beach in Wildwood Crest and it was really awesome. The hotel looked super fancy and the rooms were really big and clean. I liked that you could see the ocean and the beach was really close so you could just go which was cool . The staff were nice and helped us when we needed stuff.

The food was really good too and there were a lot of places nearby to get ice cream and snacks. The beach had soft sand and it was fun to play and go the ocean.

I would definitely go back again because it was really fun and relaxing. I think it’s a great place for families and kids.

ICONA Diamond Beach is truly a Gem! 💎
Pros:

ICONA 🌾 DIamond Beach, NJ is truly a 💎 Gem. Brandt greeted us at the Front Desk immediately. He was extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming. The Resort is beautifully decorated, very clean and serene. The All Suite includes a full mini kitchen, including stovetop, microwave, mini fridge, dishwasher & Keurig coffee ☕️ maker along with silverware & dishes. There’s a cozy living room & dining area. The amenities are to numerous to name, my favorites are the 24 hour fitness room, ocean 🌊 view & Costal Blue Restaurant.

Icona Diamond Beach Sea Glass Ballroom 2025
Pros:

The Sea Glass Ballroom had its humble beginnings as an open-air roof top area that has been transformed into an exquisite Dining Room with beautiful expansive views of Diamond Beach and the Atlantic Ocean.

It is here that we thoroughly enjoyed two delicious buffets Mother's Day Brunch and Thanksgiving Dinner. Chef John and his culinary team did not disappoint from all the breakfast favorites and beyond to succulent Prime Rib of Beef and Crab Cake for Mother's Day. Thanksgiving Day found us enjoying traditional favorites plus baked Salmon and a whole berry and orange cranberry relish.

At Icona the people take Hospitality to a level that is unrivaled what they refer to as the "Aloha Spirit" it is apparent in all of them whether it is the Host and Leader Matt greeting you so courteously, Lou Mixologist extraordinaire and the countless others including Anna, Barb, Franqui, Joanne, and Mckenzie just to name a few serving with a smile in what seemed to be never ending zeal for never doing enough for their guests. We overwhelmingly recommend Icona Diamond Beaches Coastal Blue and the Sea Glass Ballroom. All the best!
