“We
Loved It!!”
May 21,
2009
I rarely take the time to
write a review for a business
(good or bad). However, this
time I really feel that I
should. We have been traveling
down to the shore for quite some
time and the Amethyst motel has
to be the best place that my
wife and I have stayed. From
check in to check out the staff
was great. I could tell that
they really wanted to please us
and that made us feel good.
You can't beat the location. We
took the train down this time
and the motel was maybe a block
and half away. The boardwalk was
about the same distance. The
walking to the beach and back
was so easy. Once you get into
the rooms you can't beat the
high-def tv and the comfy beds.
I would recommend to anyone
traveling to Point Pleasant,
stay at the Amethyst Beach
Motel. We can't wait to go
back!!

“Beautiful
Stay at a Beautiful Place”
May 20,
2009
Recently stayed at the Amethyst
Beach Motel for a business trip.
The room was beautiful and even
had a flat-screen television
with digital cable. There was
also a fridge and a microwave in
the room for us to use. It was a
very clean room with a king
sized bed and plenty of towels
for the bathroom. Jenkinson's
Boardwalk was within walking
distance and downtown Point
Pleasant was just down the road.
It's a great location with a
friendly staff and a huge pool
for guests. I really enjoyed my
stay and would definitely stay
again! |

“Would DEFINITELY stay again!

I planned a family vacation,
almost 3 weeks ago, before my
brother is to be stationed in
Iraq. It was a first family
vacation in over 20 years and I
wanted to make special for him,
as well as all four families
happy. Theresa, the owner, was
very helpful advising me of
everything the motel had to
offer, as well as local area
things to do as this was our
first trip to Point Pleasant,
(we usually go to LBI). She even
waived the cancellation policy.
After reading many reviews on
Trip Advisor, which she told me
to check out, I immediately
booked with Amethyst.
The grounds were very neat.
Ample local parking. One lot
separates the motel from the
Boardwalk and Beach which was a
great walk with kids.
Continental breakfast was
wonderful with terrific coffee
and fresh bagels. The pool was
heated and a good size. We all
were traveling with children,
and floating devises were
permitted in the pool. Staff
even provided extra towels for
the pool.
The only problem we encountered
was upon check in, one room
still had a previous guest
inside. It was taken care of
immediately and staff gave us a
"temporary" room in order to
accommodate us and ample time to
clean the assigned room. In the
long run, we kept the
"temporary" room which was
bigger, at no extra charge, due
to the inconvenience and
miscommunication with the prior
guest.
The cleaning staff was above and
beyond! As I mentioned,
traveling with young children
means a disorganized motel room.
Surprisingly, after a tired day
at the beach, we returned to an
organized room: shoes, toys,
snacks etc. all put in it's
place. (a nice treat for mom!)
We reserved a room with 2 full
beds, which was a little small,
but this is an old Jersey Shore
motel. The room was bright, and
clean, as well as the property.
They even have a patio area with
grills should you choose to BBQ.
I would definitely stay at this
facility again due to the
friendliness, cleanliness, and
location to the beach &
boardwalk, especially with two
small children.
Upon check-out, Theresa advised
me of local events taking place
in Sept. that are "must-do's".
Again, at off’ season prices (as
this trip was), however the
ocean would be much warmer! I
believe we will "See you in
Sept." Theresa! Thank you to the
staff of Amethyst for making an
Airman's long overdue family
vacation a memorable one!

This place is a gem. After
checking out of a horrible motel
in seaside 24 hours after check
in, I drove over to PPB in hopes
of saving a vacation gone wrong.
I was greeted with smiles and
accommodated last minute with a
great room for me and my family.
Clean, warm and friendly, great
location and most of all a great
bang for your buck.
We are heading back this June
and will make this our yearly
tradition... |

"We
Love the Amethyst Beach Motel"
Oct 31, 2007
This was
our 2nd stay at the Amethyst
this season. We had a "Girl's
Week" in August, then returned
for a "Family Weekend" away in
September. The September weekend
was wonderful. 4 Generations of
our Family came together at the
Amethyst to enjoy the Beach,
Boardwalk, Seafood Festival and
we all drove down to Seaside
Heights for the Clown Festival
for the same weekend. All these
events were within walking
distance from the motel (except
the ClownFest).
Theresa, John and their Motel
family made our family very
comfortable and our stay
enjoyable.
We will definitely return next
year! |

"Great
Location"
Sep 4, 2007
my
8 year old daughter and i stayed
for one night as we had planned
a new york trip but having grown
up in new jersey and living in
tennessee for close to 25 years
i wanted to show her where i
spent my summers.
please realize this is not the
marriott marquis (where we
stayed the next two nightts)but
we enjoyed the amethyst just as
well..theresa and john (assume
the owners)were more than very
hospitable. our room opened to
the pool and we were very
fortunate to hit a unseasonably
warm weekend.the location is
great especaiily for kids .close
to the beach ,the amusement park
and the train station as we took
the train to n.y.city . the
breakfast was very good and
theresa worked very hard in
ensuring that.. when thersa
helped my daughter fix her hair
it made us feel we were with
family.
we look forward to returning
next summer for an extended stay
w/ the rest of the family.

"Our
2 night stay."
Aug 20, 2007
We booked
our stay knowing how close the
walk was to the beach and the
amusements. I would highly
recommend the Amethyst Beach
Motel to any family with
children. The rooms are clean
and all seem to be poolside. The
staff is friendly and kind.
There is a parking lot behind
the motel that was safe and
secure. The beach is only a
block and a half to the beach
and amusement area. I wish we
had planned more than a two-day
stay. We will be back next
summer.

Great time at the Amethyst!"
Aug 13, 2007
We
just returned from our stay at
the Amethyst and I felt
compelled to share my thoughts
on our stay. Let me start by
saying we booked our reservation
before reading the other reviews
on this website, and if we would
have found this website first, I
don't know if we would have
decided to stay at the Amethyst
given some of the negative
comments I read here. I was a
little worried about what we
would find at the Amethyst
because of the mixed reviews,
but I was quite pleased with our
stay.
We arrived prior to the official
check-in time, yet our room was
ready for us. The friendly young
lady at the desk checked us in
and accomodated our split
payment for the room (cash &
credit card). She was more than
helpful in getting us beach
passes and acquainting us with
the services of the hotel. When
we went to our room, it was
bright and cheerful and clean to
our picky standards for hotels.
There was a slight damp smell
when we first walked into the
room, but it disappeared (and
did not return) as soon as we
got the air conditioner going.
The Amethyst has a very inviting
pool that was right outside our
door. The kids loved being able
to walk out the door right to
the pool, and my sister and I
appreciated all of the lounge
chairs and seating that was
available right outside our door
as we supervised our children.
The pool was large enough to
accomodate many guests at one
time, but it was not so large
that the kids had an opportunity
to wander out of sight.
The Amethyst appears to be an
older hotel, but it is very well
maintained. There were a lot of
staff members about their
business, and they accomodated
our requests for more towels and
pillows. Oddly enough, inside
the room there was only one
visible electric outlet and it
was up near the drop ceiling
(there were outlets in the
bathroom area). Since we needed
an outlet for some necessary
medical equipment, the friendly
office staff helped us get an
extention cord so it could be
plugged in. It was an odd
request that they were able to
accomodate immediatley.
We had an opportunity to speak
with several guests who shared
that they have been going to the
Amethyst for decades and will
return again. I believe we will
be joining the list of other
satisfied guests who have become
loyal customers of the Amethyst.

"Friendly and Clean! we will be
back!"
New York
Aug 8, 2007
Having stayed here 3 years ago,
I chose to stay again, this time
with my two children, and my
sister and her children. We had
adjoining rooms on the second
level overlooking the pool in
the courtyard.
The rooms were freshly painted,
NO HOTEL SMELL!!! It was very
clean. A priority for me. The
air conditioners were new. Room
131 is very spacious, the
adjoining room 132 is a little
tighter on space, but also very
clean. Breakfast was assorted
full size bagels, toasters
provided, cream cheese and
butter. Also muffins, all
fresh..Bring your own milk if
you do not like powdered
creamer..No dairy products were
provided for the coffee.
THe only thing that did not work
was the oven in room 132. It was
low priority for us...I probably
should have said something but
did not.
We were able to leave our pool
toys in the pool, many families
there did bring toys and
everyone shared, nothing was
missing on the last day when we
packed up. The atmosphere is
relaxed and pleasant, I only
wished there were some living
plants in the courtyard. It is
also clean, but no greenery
whatsoever. My 8 yr old made me
promise we would be back next
summer and we will. (2 minute
walk to beach and Jenkinsons
boardwalk)

Loved the

were four of us. I had my

Theresa
was very helpful and made our
stay terrific despite tenuous

was really great since it was so
tough to organize a weekend get
together. Everyone's schedules
are too different to organize a
week. For a motel, the
accommodations were great -
clean, staff were very helpful,
and Theresa certainly went out
of her way. When guests are
treated this way - we can't help
but to come back again.

This is a
great place. a very short walk
to the beach/boardwalk. The
staff is extremely friendly and
helpful. The rooms were clean
and comfortable. The pool is
really clean and is open late.
Continental breakfast is served
poolside every morning. Plenty
of lounge chairs too. My son and
i stayed here for a week and
honestly, weren't really
expecting much, having stayed at
other motels down the shore.
It’s just far enough back from
the boardwalk to avoid all the
noise. we were pleasantly
surprised. We would absolutely
stay here again.

This is a
very nice hotel. Although not on
the ocean, you can see the
boardwalk from your room. The
staff is very helpful and
attentive. The rooms are clean,
good-sized, and well-maintained.
Our room had an HDTV, which was
a definite bonus! The hotel also
has a nice-sized pool in the
center courtyard, if you chose
to just hang out at the hotel
for the day. The daily
continental breakfast was also a
plus. I have stayed at this
hotel a number of times before,
and recommend it to family and
friends whenever asked about a
nice reasonably-priced place to
stay at the shore.

Stayed at the Beach Motel after
our Christmas party. Even though
we made our reservation on line
through their website for an
economy room with standard check
out time, the front desk person
gave us a late checkout the
following day which was great
because we had an opportunity to
do some christmas shopping in
town and enjoy coffee at Green
Planet Coffee. They also
upgraded us to a room with
32"plasma tv which we would have
been willing to pay extra for.
Look forward to staying there

This is my 2nd attempt at a
review I hope it gets posted.
Amethyst was great, the price
was right the location was close
to the boardwalk and walking
distance from town. After being
disappointed at our original
choice of a motel in Point, we
were very pleased with the room
and the service.
coffee and bagels in the morning
kept me happy but my boyfriend
was all to happy having found
that they had recently placed a
high definition flat screen with
unlimited channels in our room.
It was all I could do to pry him
away for a walk on the board
walk. Thanks we will return and
recommend this place to our
friends.

owner, went out of her way to
help make our stay more
enjoyable! She was friendly,
courteous, and very helpful to
us. She made helpful suggestions
to us on how to spend our rainy
day! despite the weather, we
enjoyed ourselves. The rooms are
in the process of being updated
in the off season, honestly they
need it, but the Motel is aware
of this and is working towards
improvements in the Decor and
amenities! The location is great
and the clientele is very family
oriented, not a bit of trouble
with loud or unruly guests!
would definitely go back!

Point Pleasant Beach: Amethyst
Beach Motel: "Good Place to
Stay"
Aug 20, 2006: New York
We
just returned from a two night
stay. Overall, this was not a
bad place. Our room was clean
and the staff was friendly. We
had a view of the boardwalk from
our room. The heated pool was
good for a swim after the beach.
There were plenty of chairs
around the pool. The location
was very convenient. It was
about a 1.5-2 block walk to the
beach/boardwalk. They did charge
us $10 per day to park but if
you stay somewhere that you have
to drive to the beach, you will
end up paying more. The
continental breakfast in the
morning was very nice to have.
There were plenty of bagels,
donuts, muffins, coffee/tea and
juice. This made it easy since
we didn't have to go out looking
for a place to eat in the
morning. There was some
confusion before I left
regarding our stay, number of
days and arrival but they went
out of their way to make it
right. Unfortunately, my son got
an ear infection during our stay
and we ended up cutting it short
by one day and they were very
understanding. Next time I would
just confirm my reservation a
few days before I leave. When we
pulled up to the motel (and it
is a motel, not hotel), I saw
two women leaving and I asked
them how it was and they said
they have been going there for
18 years. I think that says alot
about a place. We will
definitely visit Point Pleasant
again and we will stay at the
Amethyst

Beach Motel: "A SLICE OF HEAVEN
:-)"
Aug 15, 2006: Sunnyside
Dear Folks,
Firstly, let me say that I did
indeed write a review a few days
ago and do not see it in your
many scores of other reviews so
I'm trying it AGAIN.
Secondly, let me say that in the
10 yrs + that I've been staying
at The Amethyst; from when I was
single and in my early 30's
coming to The Amethyst with my
galpals to the last 3 years
since I've been married and have
taken my husband and our 4 yr
old son it has always been a
BLAST! :-) The Amethyst has and
always will be the best lodgings
in Pt. Pleasant hands down! You
can't beat the staff who are
always on call for everything
and anything -- they are truly
the BEST and demonstrate such
every single year. Professional
but totally down to earth!
I am returning to The Amethyst
on August 21, 2006 and shall
send my review of same
thereafter, which I know will be
yet another successful outing
for me and my family. Until
then! Quite Satisfied in
Sunnyside, NYC Yvette

"Amethyst's Awesome Location"
Face
it....when you pick a
motel/hotel over the internet
for a location you've never been
to...it's a crapshoot. Imagine
my surprise when we got to the
Amethyst in Point Pleasant! What
a great location! What a great
little place (make your
reservations early!). It is appr
2 blks from the boardwalk (my 7
& 9 year olds were in heaven)
and the ocean! The entire 2 blk
walk consists of parking for the
boardwalk/ocean that other
people had to pay for!
Very efficient rooms (microwave
and small fridge...perfect!).
GREAT pool (clean!) and patio
area...people sitting by the
patio conversing while the kids
swam. Continental breakfast on
the patio (very Important: every
so often more chocolate donuts
would appear....this is key!)
Half a mile from a grocery store
and a liquor store is 2 blks
further (very nice selection!).
Buy sandwich fixings for your
beach outing (boardwalk can be
pricey). The fridge holds quite
a bit.
Boardwalk has something for
everyone....food, arcade,
carnival rides, shopping, etc..
This motel gears you towards
getting out and having fun. This
is not the Hyatt, people...think
turquoise, sand, beach towels
hanging over a railing in
anticipation of the next day's
adventure....etc.
Loved it!!!

fondest memories of my childhood
were vacations at the beach, and
now my child can have the same

nice, the facilities were great,
but the most impressive part of
the week was the staff. This
really is a family oriented

vacation"
Jul 12, 2006: staten

We
have just returned from our
family 3 day vacation at the
amethyst motel at point pleasant
and we had a really nice time.
We went with four kids and they
really loved it. We had rooms
downstairs near the pool and
patio area and the kids felt
free to come and go in and out
of the rooms and back in the
pool . The fridge and microwave
came in handy. we had connecting
rooms with my sister and her
family and our parents came too.
the motel is very well run and
the staff is super friendly and
accommodating. every morning we
had fun eating the free
continental breakfast of donuts
and bagels. The coffee pot was
on all day long. the best part
was the short walk to the
boardwalk and beach. I will
recommend this motel for anyone
especially with kids.

Point Pleasant Beach: Amethyst
Beach Motel: "Wonderful
experience!!!!!!!"
July

Walnutport, PA
Our
experience at the Amethyst Beach
Motel was well worth the rate
charged. We enjoyed the large
rooms and the clean, newly
remodeled tiled showers. We
enjoyed clean crisp sheets upon
our arrival and our rooms were
cleaned daily. Fresh bathroom
linen was received daily. We did
need a washcloth one day, but
they quickly retrieved one for
us when we asked, hastle free.
The pool and patio area was
large enough to accommodate all
of the guests, and still have
room to spare. The pool and
patio were also very clean. They
were also very prompt at wiping
the rain water off the tables.
Our son Kyle, enjoyed the pool
for hours daily!
The continental breakfast
exceeded our expectations with
fresh bagels, pastries and
coffee. When the weather was
poor, they opened up the newly
remodeled dining/social area for
us to enjoy our breakfast.
The walk to the beach is about
1.5-2 blocks but this is one of
the closest motels to the
boardwalk and major attractions.
They do also offer a shuttle to
the boardwalk.
The owners were very friendly,
kind, courteous, and
understanding of our needs. We
would highly recommend this
motel for a quality point
pleasant experience.
Kyle says....
I loved the pool and the whole
place!! I hope I get to go there
again next year!!!

"Count on us again next year!"
June 2, 2006:
Westchester County, NYMy
husband and I decided to get
away for the long Memorial Day
weekend and picked Point
Pleasant and the Amethysts
Motel. It was our first trip to
the Jersey shore and we enjoyed
our stay so much we extended it
an extra day.
The Amethysts Motel was exactly
what we needed - it was safe,
clean and in a prime location to
the beach and entertainment. We
had a great 2nd floor room with
all the basic needs including
(to our surprise) a microwave
and small refrigerator. We
viewed the long wait to find
parking for others not staying
at the motel and felt lucky that
the Amethysts was centrally
located and we could walk to
everything instead of spending
time looking for parking. We
even left the beach, went back
to the motel for a while and
then walked back to the beach
later. It was a pleasure to not
have to worry about moving the
car.
Theresa and her staff were all
top notch even on the very
crowded and hectic weekend.
Every morning we were treated to
fresh coffee, bagels and donuts
– even on our last day there
when the motel was near empty
-the goodies were served like
clockwork.
We decided to make Point
Pleasant Beach and The Amethysts
Motel a yearly Memorial Day
tradition and return again next
year |

friendly. This is my 12th summer
going to the same motel. If's
it's a little chilly, they have
a heated in the ground pool that
the kids love to swim in. Most
of the rooms have 2 double beds
and a Microwave and mini
Refrigerator in them. We always
stayed in one of these rooms.
Now we stay in a room that has a
small efficiency in it.
The boys (17, 15, 7) love coming
to this motel. It's close enough
that the older boys can come and
go with no trouble at all.

"Hospitality at it's best!"
May 4, 2006When it
comes to hospitality the folks
at the Amethyst Beach Hotel are
truly gracious. Theresa and
everyone who assists in making
your stay enjoyable are ahead of
the class when it comes to
accommodating your every need.
I’ve stayed there on several
occasions in the off season and
during their busiest time –
Memorial Day weekend, and the
service I received was top
notch. The rooms are clean,
spacious and fully accessible to
anyone, even those with special
needs. I’m looking forward to a
much need vacation this summer
and if it wasn’t for Theresa’s
patience and her willingness to
help me find the right vacation
package I would be lost. From
all of us in Bangor, PA I would
surely recommend the Amethyst
Beach Hotel as your one stop,
family fun place to stay. Being
a relocated NJ Girl I truly miss
the southern NJ atmosphere and
the peacefulness of the beach.
Enjoy!

Beach Motel: "Amethyst, we
will be coming back for the
summer"
Apr 12, 2006
Had a great time down the
shore last weekend,
On our prior visit to Point
Pleasant we stayed at a nice
motel on Broadway never
realizing that the Amethyst
was right down the street
from Jenkinsons and just a
couple blocks from town. It
is a clean well run motel.
Across the street is a cute
little park were the kids
played. The Easter egg hunt
up at Jenks was all the kids
could talk about on the ride
down, but after seeing the
pool in the center of the
motel outside our room they
are now concentrating on
when we will return for a
warm summer swim. We booked
for the last week in June
and are looking forward to
our return. Thanks for the
hospitality we recommend
this place highly

Amethyst Beach Motel: "Everyone Loved
it!"
Nov 28, 2005: My entire family,
friends, and even co-workers all stayed
at the Beach Motel the weekend of
October 2, 2005 to celebrate my wedding.
We must have had rented about 30 rooms
total. Not one person had a complaint.
We started booking rooms during their
high season, the summer of 2005.Even
though they were swamped, they always
made time to help us, and were friendly.
When the time came, and we arrived,
there were no mistakes (amazingly) and
everything went smoothly. And we were
high maintenance. The staff even helped
unload the car. They happily helped with
extra's such as giving out gift bags. We
brought some extra food to add to their
continental breakfast (which was
perfectly satisfactory all on its own).
They stored everything for us, and layed
out their regular breakfast, as well as
all out extras each morning, always with
a smile. And we were messy, too. Some of
us even ended up in their very clean
heated pool, which was still open.
As the bride, Theresa up-graded my room
to a 2nd floor suite. It was lovely. It
was clean, bright, cheerful, and had
plenty of room for all the people that
were in and out, as that room became
everybody's home base. The other rooms
were great, as well. I know because I
was in almost all of them at one point
or another. Every guest said they would
and will stay there again. I know that
my husband and I certainly will.
I have been going to the Jersey shore
for 32 years, and this motel is far
superior to any of the motels I have
stayed in. Keep in mind, these are
Motels, not Hotels. If you're looking
for amenities that you'll find at the
Ritz, maybe you should go to the
islands. The Amethyst Beach Motel has
everything a Jersey girl (or couple,
family, etc.) needs and more!
I can't thank them enough for making my
wedding weekend perfect! They covered
every detail.

"Good For The Money"
August 21, 2005: New York ,
I just returned from the Amethyst after a
three night stay with my husband and three small
children. The room cost $149 a night for five of
us and this included a continental breakfast
which included donuts, bagels and beverages,
perfect for the kids. The room was clean. I
found the staff friendly. My kids loved the pool
which was open in the evening and perfect for a
swim after walking on the boardwalk. The hotel
is close to the beach, about three blocks which
is a short distance. I truly have nothing
negative to say. It wasn't the Ritz, however, it
was fine for the price. I would consider
returning in the future. It is a good place to
stay if you have small children.

We are a family of three and found the Amethyst rooms immaculate as

management had the pool almost as warm as a hot tub and their main lobby
area set up for rainy day movies on a plasma screen with full theatre
sound. If that wasn’t enough they also provide us with free internet
access, personal pizza’s and Hot Dogs. This was real Jersey Shore

"Great Family Place"
July 3, 2005: New
York . My sister
and I decided to take my grandparents and the
kids (3years old and 14 months) to the Jersey
shore. At first we booked three nights at the
Hershey Motel at Seaside Heights. WHAT A
MISTAKE!!! That place was so run down and was
not appropriate for children. We heard about the
Amethyst from a friend of mine. So we called
them and with luck they had space for us. The
place is clean. The staff goes out of their way
to meet your needs. The pool is great. (not to
big but big enough) and the boardwalk was a
block away. If you have small children this is
the place to stay. My two kids enjoyed every
second of our trip. There is also continental
breakfast served every morning.
(coffee, juice, bagels and donuts) I
would highly recommend this place for a family
getaway.

"Very pleased! What an awesome
surprise!"
June 27, 2005: Bergen County, NJ.
This was our first time at the
Amethyst--I stayed there from June 22nd through
June 25th with my 11 yo daughter. When I booked
our room back in February, I'd seen some pretty
poor reviews here, BUT, I've found repeatedly
that perfectly wonderful hotels sometimes get a
bad rap on Trip Advisor for no other reason than
that some people are just whiney perfectionists
with an axe to grind.
This is now the THIRD hotel I've stayed at that
received less than stellar reviews on Trip
Advisor and turned out to be outstanding!
Our room was newly painted in a cheerful yellow,
clean, and completely devoid of mold or mildew
(I'm severely allergic to mold and I would've
known if there was a problem.) The A/C worked
incredibly well, the TV was fine, and the shower
was fantastic--no shortage of hot water and
plenty of water power.
The heated pool was a pleasant surprise--very
well kept, spotless, and a nice comfortable
temperature (while the ocean was freezing, the
pool was just right and even on less than hot
days, we could still swim in comfort.)
Continental breakfast was ok. Granted the bagels
tasted better when toasted (several toasters
were available!), but other than that, it was a
good bargain and included OJ, apple juice, and
plenty of coffee. Later in the day, after
breakfast, they served delicious iced coffee in
the patio.
The people running the Amethyst went out of
their way to be helpful and polite. Every single
person we came in contact with was completely
professional and a pleasure to deal with.
The location of the motel was perfect. All one
had to do was walk at most 2 blocks to get to
the main part of Jenkinson's boardwalk, and yet
it was very quiet at the motel itself. Our room
looked out onto a little lake/pond with geese
and swans--a very pretty view.
I've stayed at other motels in PPB. I will
never consider going anywhere other than the
Amethyst again.

"Our Annual NJ
Vacation Motel is ONLY at Amethysts!"
June 4, 2005: I tell people about
this motel all the time, yet I can never
seem to do it justice! When I call to
reserve our room, I just tell them where I'm
coming from and what weekend and I am
greeted by name! They even know the exact
room I prefer and, as the case one year,
shifted their reservations around to get us
in that room (consider that this involved
people arriving/checking out on different
days, number in their party, etc). Everyone
is made to feel that special and that
welcomed by Theresa, John, their family and
staff. The rooms have always been clean. The
pool in perfect condition. They make sure
all guests, first timers or chronic
repeaters (like us) are happy. Since my
husband is bored by beach/boardwalk (yes, I
do think something is wrong with him), every
year I bring a different friend who brings a
child and a child's friend and our son
brings a different friend. We want to share
the experience with as many friends as
possible. One year we had too many for the
beds and in a matter of minutes there was an
extra cot in our room, no questions asked.
We arrive early a.m. every year before
checkin time and, after driving four hours,
they either have our room ready in advance
knowing we will be early or will give us
keys to another room so we can change and
dive into the pool! Our friends have all
been impressed. Last years friend BEGGED to
come again this year! She has also been
telling pending-vactioners to the Jersey
Shore about Amethyst's! Our son is so
comfortable there that he takes our
continental breakfast orders the first night
there and, when we wake up each morning, he
already has our "requests" in the room
waiting for us and he is in the pool! They
have never questioned him carrying all this
food. He wants everyone to enjoy themselves
as much as he does every year and so does
Amethyst's! Last year we decided on our
annual vacation that we wanted to return two
weeks later for a shorter vacation, during
peak no-vacancy season. They made it happen!
Ahhh....two months to go and we'll be back
there for the 6th (or is it 7th?) year in a
row and continuing..

"BEST VALUE IN POINT PLEASANT
BEACH! YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!"
May 25, 2005: Tried to make reservations
to go to Pt. Pleasant Beach for the weekend and
was confused by the difference in pricing among
the hotels I called. We decided to take a chance
and go down without a reservation so that we
could see first hand why some hotels were
charging so much less than others. We really
didn't want to spend a lot of money on a hotel
room since we were only there for one night so
we started at the least expensive motels on
Broadway which are located so far from the main
boardwalk you have to drive there and pay for
parking. Ultimately we worked ourselves up close
to the main boardwalk and found the Amethyst
Beach Motel which is where we ultimately stayed.
Yes we paid a higher price than what we would
have at many of the other motels but Amethyst
was nicely maintained and once we parked we
could walk to the main beach and boardwalk as
well as town shopping. We now understand the
difference in pricing among other motels and
hotels and have come to learn that the old
saying you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR is true. We too
share the many positive comments made on
tripadvisor with regard to this hotel and will
be returning.

and keep on driving 'til we hit the shore! We
meet up with friends there and formally kick-off
our summer vacations. The convenience of the
Amethyst to the beach and boardwalk is perfect.
It's also a convenient walk to town. We like to
get the poolside rooms so that the kids can
enjoy the water and we can enjoy the close
proximity. It's always easy to have an adult on
hand to keep an eye on them without making a
huge effort. The staff is friendly and
efficient; never a problem there. The rooms are
clean and the grounds are well kept. I saw some
of the other reviews and I can't believe they
stayed at the same place! Four years and
counting and we never experienced any problems.
This is a very comfortable Jersey shore
accomodation at a very reasonable price. Get our

family's 5th
annual trip
to the

started
going there
with one
other family
and we have
grown into a
group of 5
families
going there
this year.
We always
have a great
time mostly
due to the
perfect
accomodations.
The rooms
are typical
Jersey Shore
rooms
(small) but
who cares
when we have
the swimming
pool right
outside our
door. Our
children
practically
sleep in
their
bathing
suits so
they can
jump into
the pool as
soon as they
wake up. And
the parents
love the
convinience
of the
continental
breakfast,
we eat
poolside
while the
kids play
and swim.
The staff is
accomodating
and the
office
always
remembers us
and greets
us by name.
Its not the
Hilton, but
we wouldnt
be able to
enjoy
ourselves in
this manner
at the
Hilton. I
always
recommend
the Amethyst
to anyone
who is
visiting Pt.
Pleasant.
PS: Its
always clean

when I am
there. I

members
working at
7AM and at
midnight, so
they make
the effort
to maintain
the site.

lilflirt523@aol.com
Me and my family have been staying at the
Amethyst Beach Motel for 15 years now, every
summer for at least a week at a time. The staff
is wonderful, and so is the location. They
recently renovated the motel, two years ago with
new patio sets, a beautiful restaurant, etc.,
and as for the high prices, speak to the
governor of New Jersey he is the reason the
prices are higher. And as per the conditions of
the rooms the staff can only do so much, when
you have people who stay there that treat it
poorly, the results are damaging. We all have
such a good time there, and cant wait to go back
this summer, So John, Theresa, and staff keep up
the good work, and see you in August!

"Very relaxing"
September 27, 2004: I had the pleasure
of staying this last weekend and have never been
to Point Pleasant before. It was really nice.
The hotel was nice too. I loved the breakfast
they offered and the staff was very nice and
accomondating. They even allowed us to
re-arrange patio chairs around our room so that
we could sunbath until the last possible second.
And the other guests were really nice and
friendly. I found the rooms to be clean and the
pool and patio area was excellent. I did wish
the pool was a little more warmer because I love
to swim especially if the pool is kept above
85'. (my personal preference). I had no problem
parking even though we had two cars for our
stay. They allowed us to check out by 6pm on a
sunday....which was fantastic! And ontop of
everything else...short walk to the beach and
boardwalk and there is pond right next door with
ducks and fish. The park is nice and it made the
whole weekend very enjoyable and most
importantly relaxing.....which I really needed
since I have a stressful busy life! So thank you
and I hope to return soon!

"enjoyed our vacation"
August 30, 2004: My son and I had the
opportunity to stay at the Amethyst in August
2004. We only intended on staying 2 days but
ended up staying for 5. The staff at the
Amethyst was very accommodating in arranging our
extended stay. The location is wonderful, staff
was very helpful. We spent very little time in
our room, so the accommodations were
satisfactory

"The AMETHYST is for one and all .
. ."
July 9, 2004: My friends and I always
stay at The Amethyst when we visit the Jersey
Shore--this will be "summer #8." The staff at
the Amethyst are always friendly and courteous
and they adapt to families, couples or singles
without a problem. We have our privacy and no
one bothers us or complains. The rooms, pool and
grounds are always neat and clean. If you need
anything, all you have to do is ask. It's a
short walk to the boardwalk, beach and the Tiki
Bar, who could ask for more. We wouldn't stay
anywhere else for we are comfortable here, and
the Amethyst really feels like our "home away
from home."

"Vacation for the whole family"
July 1, 2004: I travel a lot all over
the world and always stay in luxury hotels. I
have PhD in Pediatrics and enjoy working with
kids and provide a safe/healthy environment for
them. I have to go to New York once a year to
attend a meeting at the UN. One year I decided
to go visit the Jersey Shore. I was surprised
that there are no big chain hotels there, but I
was very satisfied with staying at the Amethyst
Beach Motel the staff was polite and helpful.
The pool patio area is wonderful especially when
have kids. The front patio is sunny and gives
you a feel of summer and of the area. The Motel
is close enough to the beach so you can walk but
at the same time away from the beach/board walk
noise which is perfect for a woman my age. I
kept coming back every year to enjoy the beach
and kept bringing my grandkids with me.

"We Love Amethyst's!!!"
June 30, 2004: My daughter and I have
stayed at Amethyst's for the last 4 years. We
have always been pleased with our room. We were
so happy to be so close to the amusement area of
the boardwalk (great with the little ones) The
microwave and the refrigerator helped us budget,
and hot coffee by the pool everymorning didnt
hurt either. I was happy to meet other families
that also returned each year. We wouldnt stay
anywhere else in PPB

"A place we keep going back to"
June 30, 2004: The Amethyst is a hotel
we have been staying at for the past 5 years. If
location is everything, then the Amethyst has
it! The rooms were quite adequate, an overall
'family' environment, lots of flexibility and an
attentive and friendly staff.

June 30, 2004: Just back from a
beautiful week at the Jersey shore with my
family. We stayed at the Amethyst in Point
Pleasant Beach. I have to say the room was great
the staff polite and the location was key being
that close to the boardwalk. You know how busy
the beach is and it was great to have the hotel
right there for a dip in the clean pool. I have
read some of the bum posts here and can honestly
say our experience was nothing like that. My
kids enjoyed the pool. I enjoyed not having to
worry about parking. Restaurants and stores were
a short walk.

Beach Motel: "Best motel in Point Pleasant
area!"
June 30, 2004: My family and I travel to
the Jersey Shore often... Honestly, we had a
wonderful time at the Amethyst Beach Motel in
Point Pleasant Beach NJ. It is actually one of
the best motels I have ever stayed in throughout
my travel experience to the shore!! The staff
was polite and helpful, the location was the
best, the pool patio area was a wonderful
surprise as it allowed us to sit with our kids
by the pool while being close to our rooms. In
addition, the beach was just a short walk from
our room (less then 5 minutes), we could
conveniently leave the car and easily walk to
either the boardwalk or the shopping area.
We have read the negative review posted on this
site and we strongly disagree!! We never saw or
experienced anything remotely like what has been
characterized by these reviews. If you're
looking for a great place to stay during your
vacation with wonderful service and a secure
environment, my family and I highly recommend
this place...

"Have stayed there For 4 Year's"
June 30, 2004: 4 Summers ago we stayed
at the Amethyst for 2 Weeks, we are a family of
5 and had the Greatest Vacation. Our room was
cleaned everyday and fresh towels were always
available if we needed more. Barbeque grills for
us to use instead of going out or using the
stove in our room. Every morning coffee, juice,
fresh bagels and donuts No cooking in the
morning. The employees were always polite and
courteous and helpful with ordering take-in food
and or directions, one of the girls at the front
desk went so far as to call her mom for
directions for us! After our great experience
that summer we have been reserving the Amethyst
(the whole motel) for Basketball tournament
weekends 3 years in a row in June ( 2 weekends
in of June 2004) and when we fill the place the
staff gets rooms for our other familes in other
local motels and ever family has been so pleased
with their rooms the heated pool and how clean
the keep the whole place was kept. The location
to the Boardwalk is wonderful too. Thanks To
Amethyst Owners and it's Staff for making so may
of our Basketball families comfortable during
their stay

May 2, 2004: Amethyst Beach Motel is
conveniently located overlooking the Board Walk
Amusement area in Point Pleasant Beach. Directly
across is a lovely park and Bands Shell which
hosts weekly concerts followed by fireworks on
the Beach. The staff was friendly and
accommodating as were the rooms. The central
location of the Amethyst allowed us to walk to
the local shopping district as well as beach
access. I would recommend the Amethyst Beach
Resort and Point Pleasant Beach NJ to anyone
looking for a clean upscale place to enjoy the
Jersey Shore
