Great home

This house is beautiful, clean and spacious. Loved that it’s walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Also, loved that it had a crib available for our baby. Three bedrooms and each had its own full size bathroom! The owner was always available to answer our questions promptly, via text. Kitchen supplies fully stocked which is amazing when traveling with little ones. Overall a phenomenal stay. Will definitely stay again.

Wonderful Experience

We had a wonderful girls trip! The host Amy was amazing, she was very quick to respond to any and all questions. She provided extra bicycles, beach cart everything we needed to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. The property is located a short walk to the beach and restaurants. We were able to park the car for our entire trip and either walk or bike ride to everything that we wanted to do. We would totally rent from her again!

Most Enjoyable

Our stay at this house was most enjoyable. It is conveniently located a half mile from Belmar Beach & Boardwalk and a half mile from the quaint town with a selection of stores and restaurants. This cozy cottage is set back from the street, located at the end of a beautifully paved driveway, providing the sense of a serene hideaway. The front porch is nestled amongst a landscaped garden of greenery & flowers and is ideal for morning coffee and evening cocktails. The home is well kept, clean and very comfortable, with a central common area, surrounded by inviting, comfortable bedrooms, each with a bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped, and we easily prepared meals, utilizing the toaster oven, stove and the grill, located beside the house. Amy the homeowner was pleasant and responsive. Even staying in July, we had no issue with street parking for two cars. We highly recommend this property and look forward to renting again in the future. Thank you.

Family getaway

The cottage was wonderful. Everything was clean and comfortable. The bedrooms and bathrooms were well sized, it was great to have ensuite bathrooms for each bedroom. We loved sitting out on the cozy front porch with the beautiful landscaping surrounding us. We walked down to the beach several times, it is quite close with a little pond just a block over to walk around as well. Amy was very accomodating and quick to respond. We would love to stay here again.

Absolute perfection!

My family and I (parents, sister, and myself) had the most wonderful visit at this property. Two rooms and the main living area (including the entrance and bathrooms) are fully handicap accessible which was vital to this trip. Amy was wonderful! She communicated clearly everything we needed to know and added so many personal, wonderful touches to the property. From welcome coffee to extra pillows and blankets, the property left nothing to be desired. Every person on this trip commented on the beauty of the property. It is centrally located to all the restaurants and the boardwalk. The gardens are breathtaking, the kitchen amenities are complete (we were able to prepare a nice meal together in the space with no issues. Pots, pans, utensils are all provided). The showers are accessible and beautifully designed. Every space in the cottage was pristine, clean, and comfortable. The owners have really nice taste and the finishes are high end. We felt spoiled and pampered and cannot wait to return for our next visit to Belmar. Highly recommend, will come again, we honestly cannot say enough good things about the whole experience. Thank you Amy for sharing your fantastic home with us!

Beautiful property and neighborhood

We stayed at this property over Easter weekend 2024. The rental was very clean and in a beautiful neighborhood, within walking distance to the beach which had a well maintained boardwalk which made for easy walking. Short drive to numerous restaurants in Belmar and Asbury Park. Very nice and spacious private bathrooms with walk in showers adjacent to each of the 3 bedrooms. Nicely handicap accessible. Slight issue with the listing indicating a hot tub as an amenity but this was admirably quickly corrected on the listing. Wouldn’t hesitate to rent here again.

BEWARE!

Beware of this property. When looking for a place, I found this one and accidentally hit the BOOK button before I could confirm the dates with my friends. I was told I would immediately lose half my money if I tried to change the booking. That was more than $900. I asked the owner for a few minutes to make my arrangements and she said no. VRBO also asked her and she refused again to give me a few minutes. So we went through with the rental rather than lose our money. Host was rude when we accidentally knocked on her door, confused about the property, house had little sunlight due to lack of windows and one table reading lamp was provided for the entire space. Never again.

We were 3 couples in Belmar NJ for a wedding in nearby Long Branch. The house was just as described with Amy being readily available to us both before and during our stay. The 3 BR 3 Bath house was perfect for us. It is well kept and well stocked. The 10 am checkout time is a bit early especially on a rainy Monday in September but again Amy was understanding and allowed us another hour. It was a very pleasant stay indeed.
