We need to skip Disney this year and I just booked 4 nights on points at Hilton Suites in OC. We've never been and I just began to do some research. At the moment the web site is not showing prices. Can you give me an idea of the cost and how many tickets I may need? I have 3 teens. TIA. Joyce

The site I posted is for Ocean City NJ, not Ocean City MD. I think the Hilton Suites you mentioned are in Maryland.

what is this exactly for?? the one year I got tickets for Castaway Cove- my kids like Wonderland much better- so we have been using these tickets for years it seems like!

sorry just reread your post now, and checked out the site--Castaway Cove not that it is a bad place- my kids just like Wonderland better- I guess I'll have to see how much the 2 prices are & go from there- but thanks for the post-- I'll save money anyway I can (plus it's closer to Mack's pizza)

And beach tags also 1/2 price over that Easter weekend!
We always get tickets for both Wonderland and Castaway Cove. I prefer Castaway because the tickets don't expire, although last year, Wonderland did honor tickets from the year before.

We usually rent a house but I dont know about this year . . the prices are sky high and I worry about DH's job.

Wonderland is open Palm weekend & Easter weekend also. Ticket books will be $10 instead of $20 and they will have discounted tickets for mini golf & the waterpark.

Can someone tell me about parking? I am thinking we could head down for the day - it's about 2.5 hours away but if we go before the summer crush (like easter weekend) I think it might be doable.
But I don't want to get there and then have no place to park. And can we get beach access without staying overnight? Is there a day pass?
