    Perfection

    April 09, 2013

    I love staying at the Sea Spray Inn! Mary Ellen and Eric are so welcoming, and the Inn is lovely! Each room is unique and beautiful, and I have stayed in three of them so far. Some rooms have ocean views, and the location of the Inn is perfect! Breakfast is delicious and very filling! I appreciate that Mary Ellen varies the menu each morning, so one day might be a sweet entree, the next savory. I also love the fresh fruit each morning. This is a very special Inn, and I look forward to staying there each time we go to Ocean Grove.

    Perfection.

    October 02, 2012

    My mother and I recently spent a "Birthday"weekend at "The Spray Inn". The expirienced was outstanding. Mary Ellen and Eric are warm, inviting, friendly, dedicated and specially sweet in making one feel, cared for and appreciated. The "Inn" is delicious, like Mary Ellen's food. It's an ideal place to rest, recover from the stress of the city, to enjoy, the Ocean, and feel better than home, since somebody is making sure you have absolutly everything you could possibly need. We've been in B&B's around the world, I can assure you, this is at the top of my list. The Best! Patricia K and Barbara Crean.

    Wonderful night in Ocean Grove

    September 24, 2012

    my husband and i had just one night for a little getaway before our new grandson was due to arrive. we have stayed in many b & b inns during the last 25 years and this one was wonderful. we found the inn lovely and very clean, and MaryEllen and Eric are great hosts. They made sure we had everything we needed including beach towels and water bottles. The breakfast was fantastic; we didn't eat again until 3:00 in the afternoon! In addition, for animal lovers like us, there is a sweet, quiet dog named katie.

    wonderful B&B

    September 03, 2012

    This was our first vacation on the Jersey shore and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place to stay. The Sea Spray Inn has everything vacationers would be looking for in a B&B, It is a charming, cheerful place that is run by warm, caring and lovely people. Our room was very comfortable and Mary Ellen served up some of the best breakfasts we have ever had in any B&B we have ever stayed at. She is truly a class act cook. We plan to return there, perhaps this fall. This B&B was a great find!!!! We highly recommend The Sea Spray Inn.

    Absolutely lovely

    August 30, 2012

    We don't usually stay at b and bs, preferring more privacy. We just came back from 3 nights at the Sea Spray and can't wait to return. Mary Ellen and Eric are perfect hosts. Mary Ellen's breakfasts are superb. Their front porch is delightful and cozy with very comfy wicker couches. The rooms are beautiful and the bed was great. They made great suggestions for dinner. They are a block from the beach. Couldn't recommend this place more highly!

    WHAT A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE Sandy & Elyse

    August 29, 2012

    The first thing you will notice about Mary Ellen & Eric is that they are friendly,warm and very accommodating hosts. If you want a peaceful environment which is located one block from the ocean and beach, has a panoramic view of Fletcher Lake, and is a short walk to Main ave with its quaint shops and restaurants, then this is the place for you. The lovely accommodations come with large bathrooms,a delicious breakfast served either on the porch,which over looks the lake, or if you prefer, in a tastefully decorated dining room. Breakfast is always served with delicious homemade baked goods & fresh seasonal fruit salad. The Saturday wine & cheese gathering takes it over the top. This was our second year in a row and this time we brought friends ,one of whom was so happy with the whole experience that she took advantage of a cancellation and stayed an extra day. What memories!

    Another great week at the Sea Spray Inn

    August 26, 2012

    We just returned from our third stay at Sea Spray. The inn's common areas and our room are always clean, attractive, and comfortable. The inn is a block from the beach and five blocks from the main commercial street--a perfect location. Mary Ellen and Eric are superb hosts; they're always available to answer questions and are forthcoming about their favorite restaurants and places of interest. The breakfasts at the inn are terrific, with fresh fruit and vegetables, and homemade baked goods. We'll definitely book early next year!
