Quiet Gem on the Bay

Such an amazing place to stay. Great food & drinks. Jessie at the bar was so friendly, Thomas was a delight at check in and really made feel welcome. The views from the top deck are beautiful and the space is so relaxing. I definitely will be back.

Location location location, historic flare of old days of the NJ shore past. Private beach on the bay, close to local good eats, room temp Perfact during an extreme heat wave! Very comfortable!
Debbie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wedding in the area. The wedding started at the same time as check in. This establishment let a group of us have early check in to help not scheduling difficulty. It was very much appreciated and shows good customer service. Plus the place was quaint and safe:)
Maryanne, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed one night while visiting the beach, and it gave us exactly what we needed. The beds were soft, the room and bathroom were clean, and the room was cool the moment we stepped in, which was necessary after being on the hot beach all day. The restaurant's food was delicious, and it was great to be able to eat and then go right back up to the room to rest. We'll definitely be back next year.

Great views on deck
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a lovely one day stay. Note that you’re paying to stay in a historic tavern with a nice view and semi-private beach. There isn’t a lot to say (good or bad) about the room or the service. Everything was fine. We’d consider coming back.
Robertson, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location of the Tavern is great! There are plenty of restaurants and locations for entertainment without going over the bridge. Owner is friendly and staff is also friendly to chat with. For a locally owned business, they are doing a great job supplying multiple perks for a fair cost!

The atmosphere and the hotel itself was so tastefully decorated, it was so different then anything down there. It was classy and unique. Staff and owner were fantastic! The views off the decks were beautiful and you could enjoy happy hour at the restaurant deck downstairs. Will definitely be going back!
