We had a wonderful stay at this cottage in Truro! The location can't be beat, the beach is a beauty, and the cottage is well-equipped with awesome decor. The owner was very easy to work with and super helpful. We would definitely stay here again - incredibly relaxing vacation!

Beautiful "Gem" with Wonderful Curation and Beach access
We loved our time at 'The Gem'. This was a very tranquil destination and the respite we needed. Marielllen is a very thoughtful and responsive host and her artistic curation of the cottage was very appreciated. The grounds are lovely and with direct private beach access. We highly recommend this property!

The Gem is Aptly Named
This place is so nice; the cottage, the decks, outdoor kitchen, private beach with Adirondacks nestled in a sand dune, all to die for! Mariellen is a pleasure to work with and it is clear will go out of her way to be sure you are comfortable.

Hidden Treasure!
We absolutely loved this cottage. It’s full of vintage and quirky decor, but also has every modern amenity you could want in a beach cottage. The location is perfect, the cottage is situated such that even on that densely populated stretch of beach, you feel it’s your own little secluded spot. We’ve been vacationing at various places North Truro for 30 years, and The Gem is by far our favorite spot. We loved the cottage and the location, but just as important, Mariellen is a perfect host...warm and welcoming and responsive. We had a small issue with one of the TVs, which is not worth mentioning except to say that Mariellen came right over and took care of it. We really couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay at The Gem!

Practically perfect in every way - cozy, comfortable, beautiful on beach..
This is a special place. Most of the reviews before mine say the same thing, but to put my statement in perspective - My husband and I live in Abruzzo, Italy in the midst of a National Park and we live in the mountains and yet are only 45 minutes from the Adriatic; this year we came to Cape Cod and Mariellen's Gem for our vacation, and it was as perfect as anything back home. The house is lovely, artfully appointed with everything one might need. Its located in an area of historic cottages and has PRIVATE DIRECT BAYSIDE BEACH ACCESS! While there are many things to do and see (Provincetown is just down the road and the shuttle is right there) the cottage itself was a DESTINATION - sit on the beach in your Adirondack beach chairs and watch the sailboats. Walk, run, swim and use the fabulous outdoor shower to de-sand. We ate out, but more often brought fabulous take-out to eat at the cottage because nowhere did we find a better view nor sweeter atmosphere than the back porch with its bayside breeze. Also, the Gem is dog-friendly and our 5 pound Chihuahua was the belle of the beach. We very much hope to return - but we'll have to act fast - the Gem is mostly full for next year!

Truly a Gem
The Gem was exactly as advertised. An amazing little cottage in a great location! It was the perfect place for a long needed getaway for my wife and I. The deck with views of PTown and the chairs right on the beach to enjoy the amazing sunsets! The seemingly endless stretch of beach for long walks. There was no need to leave the cottage except for daily trips to Cape Tip or Mac’s Seafood for fresh fish. What an amazing find!

True Gem of a House
What a treasure this house is. Mariellen has taken such care and give it such character vs so many bland vacation homes. So many wonderful touches. As other reviews have said, much larger thank pictures. And that view! Just steps from the bay beach. My husband and little dog couldn’t get enough. Mariellen was a delight and in touch as much as we needed. Can not wait to get back!

Vacation in paradise!
The Gem is a lovely little cottage - beautifully and perfectly appointed with everything we could possibly need for a week away from home. Mariellen was responsive and thoughtful and her artist’s eye was apparent in all the creative and whimsical details. The Gem is situated just outside of Provincetown which we loved - the ideal mix of activity and quiet. The private beach and our own secluded seating area for coffee every morning and cocktails at sunset was a dream! In addition, the cottage was spotless and Mariellen was very committed to cleanliness and our comfort during the pandemic. We would absolutely stay here again!!!

A true Gem!
This cottage was much more than we expected! We loved the cottage and location so much that we just wanted to stay there rather than venture into town and do things. On top of this place being amazing, Mariellen went above and beyond for our arrival. This was a trip to celebrate my 40th birthday and my wife had coordinated with Mariellen for the cottage to be decorated with decorations she mailed her. The pictures simply don't do it's justice.

The Gem was a perfect place to stay on our long weekend on the cape. The beach, the cozy cottage, the views, the beautiful artwork by Mariellen Serena, all made for a wonderful few days. Can’t wait to come back.

Delightful cottage on the beach, easy access to Ptown.
Cozy and charming cottage on the beach. Great way to unwind. We brought our dog for the week after Labor Day, when there were fewer tourists. Mariellen has thought of just about everything. The cottage is small, but perfect for a couple. We spent our days at the beach either outside the door or on the nearby National Cape Cod Seashore. We look forward to staying again, even in the cooler off season.

This was our second time staying here and it surely won't be our last. You have privacy, comfort, and all the amenities that you could ask for. The location is fabulous and the cottage is just lovely. I won't stay anywhere else down the Cape - only the Gem :)

A true Gem
The Gem is a great place to enjoy the Cape and P-town. It is just south of Provincetown, close enough, but away from any crowds. The Gem is funky, fully functional, and a beautiful place to stay for 2. We went whale watching, which was easy from this location. We enjoyed sitting on the beach, walking on the beach, and sunsets over P-town. It is close to several National Seashore entrances. It is highly recommended.

What a wonderful retreat! And what a marvelous location!
This Truro cottage has it all - great views, great space - and every possible kitchen implement you could want! Plus lounge chairs, beach chairs, linens for ourselves as well as old towels for our dogs' use. Absolutely nothing has been forgotten.

The Gem is truly a gem.
The Gem is a very lovely cottage. It is situated on the beach of Cape Cod Bay in a beautiful, tranquil setting. Mariellen has provided everything one needs and has furnished the home artfully. All you have to do is bring in your groceries and relax. We are looking forward to another visit.

My Stay at "The Gem"
I had a wonderful stay at the Gem in May of this year. The cottage was spotless, well outfitted and a stone's throw to the water. I sat in the Adirondack chairs by the water for hours- read- watched the birds- occasionally leaving for a leisurely walk on the beach with my dogs. It was so peaceful and serene, I did not feel a need to go anywhere some days. Others, I explored the surrounding beaches and towns.
This was just what I needed for a vacation. I came stressed and exhausted and left relaxed and renewed. I highly recommend this property.

Beautiful, relaxing, incredible place to stay!
My partner and I stayed here for our anniversary and we were not disappointed. We were greeted by a joyful Mariellen after our drive in from Boston Airport. She gave us a run down of the entire property and let us know if we needed anything she was just a phone call away. We settled in immediately. The place is spectacular!! I know that when you go on a trip somewhere new, you're suppose to get out and explore but let me say how hard it is to leave this place. It's so relaxing and comforting that you don't feel guilty getting a bottle of wine and some food and just staying in and enjoying the beautiful view as opposed to getting out. We went when the a lot of the places were still closed due to the off season but we lucked out because the Dolphin Fleet Whale Watching had opened that weekend. What a amazing thing to do while there... we saw close to 10 whales... Amazing!! We want to go back during the season but we still had a great time... only because The Gem was so great. It's a really wonderful place. We can't wait to go back.
