We thoroughly enjoyed our mini vacation in Apalachicola! The Majestic Jewel was perfect for our stay. It is such a lovely and interesting historical home, full of so much to see and do! We appreciated all the extra touches such as the coffee bar with snacks and water and the evening music playing as we came back in. The porches were fabulous for morning coffee and evening wine. Greg was a gracious host, and we hope to meet June on the next visit. We will definitely stay here again!
The house is beautiful, our room was great - the bed was comfy, we both slept well and rested. Very close to downtown so we walked. June and Greg were great hosts; we definitely want to return for another visit as this was our first to this area versus PCB!

Chris, we are so glad that you enjoyed your visit! Many guests are discovering that Apalachicola is a unique get away and staying in town with the beach just across the bridge rivals fighting the crowds elsewhere!
We loved the place. It was so comfy. Everything was simple. The hosts were helpful. I'd definitely go back.

June and Greg, the owners, are warm and welcoming and have really thought about hospitality. The interior decor and furniture are appropriate for the historical home. The guest coffee, beverage, cereal station is a great addition . Very comfortable.

This was my first time staying in a house like this. It was amazing. The old world feel of the property took me back to a time when life was so much slower. I gave it 5 stars but that really doesn't even come close to how great it was. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone!!!
Great location for anything you want to do in Apalachicola
Wonderful location for anything you would like to do while in Apalachicola! Hosts were very friendly and helpful in meeting our needs during our stay. We would love to visit again soon.
Majestic Jewell was perfect for us for 2 night stay at the end of September. Enjoyed the included coffee, milk and breakfast snacks. Balcony upstairs overlooking the street was great place to relax with a drink or coffee.
A beautiful room in a historic and well restored building that makes you think of the boarding houses of past days. Close to everything you need - restaurants, beaches, bars, groceries - and most within walking distance. The hosts and cleaning staff were super friendly and helpful in finding our way around town and having coffee on the front porch in the morning was so relaxing. A perfect weekend stay away from the crowded beach locations.
WE loved everything about the Majestic Jewel. It was quiet, peaceful, relaxing, clean, and easy to get to downtown areas that we wanted to visit. It was close enough to beaches that we "beach hopped" each day which was definitely an adventure. We will most definitely be back to stay there!
We enjoyed walking around town and visiting the waterfront, restaurants, pubs, shops ....Great get a way .....Loved sitting on the porch outside and drinking our morning coffee. We will return!
There is simply not enough words to express how wonderful the Inn was. A definite 10+. Everything was immaculate. The decor was superb. The linens were floral, crisp and went with decor. The entire three days were lovely. I can highly recommend this establishment.

Charlotte your review was music to my ears! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your experience at the Majestic Jewel! Thank you for the well written & flattering review! Hopefully you will visit this charming little town again!
We were on a trip and decided to stop in an out of the way place where we'd never been. This restored home and Apalachicola were perfect! The home was so convenient to the restaurants. We had a great time and plan on going back.
A beautiful house that has a very unique history and the home owners put the entire story in a notebook in your room for you to read. The house is very close to downtown so you can walk instead of drive. We had a very nice stay.

June and Greg were great hosts and made us feel at home at the Majestic Jewel. The rooms are restored to the original glory and the beds and linens are top notch. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area.
We had a wonderful stay at the Majestic Jewel. It is a beautiful home, with charm and comfort. The Autumn Moon Suite was perfect. The location can’t be beat! June and Greg are great hosts. We can’t wait to return!

We are happy that you enjoyed your stay at the Majestic Jewel! Greg & I take great pleasure in sharing our home with guests! We look forward to your next visit! Thanks, June
What a spectacular house with rich history. We enjoyed being able to read about the property. It is close to town, so you can walk everywhere if you choose. We really liked that we could arrive late and not have to bother anyone to check in. The Autumn Moon Suite was beautiful and super comfortable. It is rare to have a bed and pillows that are so comfortable. We will be back.
Lovely accommodations, peaceful, a short walk to the downtown area with the river, shops, and brewery. Couldn’t ask for a better escape. And while unfortunate, they stress COVID precautions and prevention. This was a repeat trip and we are already planning on returning again.

About the host
Hosted by June Quinn and Greg Vance
Greg & June's dream came true when they purchased this historic home in Apalachicola! They were determined to bring this jewel back to life! With the help of a few good friends & countless electricians & plumbers, their vision became a reality!
They love sharing their home & the charming little town of Apalachicola with guests. Meeting interesting people and sharing their jewel with others is the biggest perk of hosting!
After selling their import business in 2020, they are able to spend about 70% of the month in Apalachicola & the remainder at their home in Atlanta. Although they are not in residence 100% of the time, they welcome requests from guests who prefer to visit while they are there.
Why they chose this property
In 2017, seeking to simplify life, the search was on for an opportunity to open a "small" business in Apalachicola. All roads kept leading back to the "jewel"! It had so much potential yet had been sitting dark & empty for almost 8 years! It was originally built in 1908 as a private residence for the family of a prominent German immigrant who made his wealth in the dry goods industry in Apalachicola. It did not change hands until the 1980's when it was bought, restored & converted into a bank & an insurance agency. The old bank lobby is now the Hospitality Lobby & guest kitchenette. History of the home & its people are exhibited here.
Although they did not simplify their life, the potential of the "jewel" called their names and the rest is part of her history! The "Jewel of Apalachicola", as the town folk called her, became the MAJESTIC JEWEL INN & hosted the first couple on December 31th, 2017 right in time for the new year of 2018!
June & Greg are repeatedly told by guests that this home is so majestic yet comfortable & serene! It must be seen & felt! Photos do not do it justice!
What makes this property unique
Staying at the Majestic Jewel is the best way to experience southern grandeur in the charming little town of Apalachicola. Located in the center of the historic district, beauty is all around. So much to see & do! Walk less than 2 blocks to the enjoy the galleries, shops, restaurants & night life. The river wharf & the bay are 4 blocks away and St George Island is only a 10 minute drive!
Guests love sitting on the wrap around veranda, to relax & catch the eternal breeze! It is simply the best place in town!
