Only issue is that we unknowingly booked a smaller room and one that has a private bathroom across the hall. Our fault, as we could have booked a room with a private bath in our room. Rooms are nice otherwise. Food is spectacular. One morning a spinach, asiago and ham crepe was served on the lovely porch. We also had stuffed French Toast. Bfast is included in the room rate. They also have an afternoon tea with wonderful lemonade/iced tea and homemade pies and breads. Pastry chef here is CIA trained. Overall a great place and a decent value.

We stayed at this B&B for 2 nights. This was not my first time at a B&B. I was attracted by the…read morereviews and decided to give it a try. We stayed in room #3 that had bath and outside porch overlooking the front street. When I spoke to Cheryl on the phone, she was really great. Very patient and described all the different rooms available. She told be ahead time that if you don't mind a little noise from the street, then 3 would be nice. The inside of the room was five star. Very clean. I travel a lot and normally never walk barefoot. I had no problem at the Magnolia house. Well done! The outside of the house was lacking detail. For example, the chairs were broken and the wicker chairs are falling apart so it wasn't very welcoming to sit down. The inside of main house was lovely and Victorian feel throughout. The outside, however, was missing the detail again. The grounds were overgrown and also needed sweeping. They have a pool table outside that looks terrible. They had one bike with a broken chain. Again this is not a show stopper but it just gives you insight as to how the care or lack of care to the outside. The service was good. Very friendly and inviting. The food was ok. I wouldn't call it gourmet style and I was a little disappointed to have sausage 2 days in a row. I was expecting something different. My big complaint is no Wifi. We were totally expecting and planned to stream music and relax on our porch. The day we checked in we were told Tony went to buy new router. The next morning I confirmed I was accessing the correct access point but I was being prompted for a password. I asked the waitress if she knew the password. She said she needed to ask Tony. I felt bad because i didn't want to make a big deal. Tony came out and advised there is no password but then I showed him that I was, in fact, being promoted for a password. He seemed a annoyed and said well I can't help you right now and now is not the time. Now I felt really bad. I certainly understood but i wasn't asking him to troubleshoot right then, I just needed him to know that his new router was in fact prompting users for a password. There was never any follow up to resolve the issue. Tony only complained about spending 4 hours trying to fix it the day before. So we were out of luck to stream music or videos. Lucky for me I didn't need it for work. Overall we enjoyed ourselves and would recommend it to others. You really won't find a more friendlier team on the island who make you feel at home. They seemed to have a lot of availability in the high season where other B&Bs had no vacancies. The location is perfect. Very close to all the restaurants and about 2 and half blocks from the beach.

Loved that the inn provided so many conveniences - beach chairs, towels, beach bag, bicycles, & bottled water!

Creeeeeepy. At the…read morerisk of being spontaneous, my boyfriend and I, after spending the day on LBI, decided to stay the night. Everything on the Island was either booked or closed (not surprising), so we figured we should be able to grab a room right off the Island. PSYCH. The only rooms available were 400 dollar suites, and far far away hotels (which would make staying at the beach overnight pointless). Enter: The Barnegat Hotel. We stumbled across this little gem via my phone's navigation tool, and since it was open and had a room available, we jumped on it. Bad decision. From the outside, I thought it would be super cute inside - it looked like a little village! Not so. We stepped foot into a tiny apartment-type mistmatching furtniture, mirrors all over the walls motel room thing, circa 1972. I honestly thought this was were I was going to die. There was a weird little kitchen area, tilted floors and ceilings, very little light, and everything squeeked - the doors, the floor, the sink - everything. OH, and the tv, which was located in the weirdest corner of the room by the door (not really ideal for bed tv watching) had a remote that didn't even work. And there were no clocks anywhere. And it smelled funny. And the sheets were dirty. Never, never, never, ever again. I'll sleep in my car.
