The Jersey Shore’s newest boutique hotel arrives in Bradley Beach, New Jersey, in time for fall. Sitting on the Atlantic coast, the 118-year-old property underwent an extensive restoration to feature a 16-room main house and a three-bedroom standalone bungalow. The James also features seasonal beach service and locally inspired food and beverages.
Rooms see a combination of vintage pieces sourced both locally and internationally and custom fabrications designed by Sebastian Zuchowicki. Guests also find tables, lamps and 20-panel white oak folding screens handmade by owner George DiStefano himself.
