Perfect, cozy, convenient place to stay

Great place for our family of four to have as a home base for walks to the beach and exploring the town. Very clean, homey, and organized. The amenities were thoughtful as to little things we would need but not necessarily bring. Would definitely return for future visits!

Cozy Beach House

Nice little beach house, 2 blocks from the ocean and boardwalk. Perfect for 2-3 people or a couple with 2 small kids. Jean, the owner, is easy to reach and very accommodating. Main street Belmar is just a minute away with fun shops and restaurants. Street parking not a problem during our stay.

Great stay close to the beach

My rating is always based, first, on how clean the place is. The house was immaculate with beachy details and Jean is a great host, helpful and available but not intrusive. The location is a short walk to the beautiful Belmar beach and great downtown restaurants. The cottage itself was just as pictured with lots of extras available and a great spot for my husband and I. Wish our stay could have been longer.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable time at Mrs. Jean’s cottage. It was our home away from home. Location was perfect and only a block or so from the beach. We definitely would recommend this place to anyone!!

Awesome comfortable cottage near the beach

The cottage was exactly as described. It is about a block from the beach, and about 1/2 mile (walkable) from Main St. The cottage was extremely clean, well supplied, and very comfortable. I liked the outdoor shower. The property owners were very friendly and helpful.

Belmar visit

We stayed during tropical storm Ophelia so we couldn't get to the beach as planned but even so we were very comfortable here. It was clean, neat and very near the necessities of life (read: the Bagelry that has *the best* bagels :-) ). We will definitely try to stay here the next time we come to Belmar.

Perfect cozy getaway

Super pleased with this bungalow. Clean, comfortably decorated, well equipped, cozy. Close to the beach. Had everything we needed. 4 adults (2couples) stayed here and it was perfect. Didn't get to use the outside shower but we'll have to come back in the summer for that. 😊 Thanks for everything Jean!

A cozy cottage by the sea

My sister and I searched for a last minute getaway at the Jersey shore and found this exceptional cottage by the sea. The owners Jean and Jim were so accommodating and pleasant to work with. The cottage has so many amenities, an amazing front porch and is one block from the beach. The weather was perfect and we spent most of our time outdoors walking on the boardwalk, at the beach and trying many great restaurants. I would highly recommend this cottage and look forward to returning soon.
