As listed, was clean, looked like people hadn’t had shoes on inside we left ours near the door, which made it feel cleaner & comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Near sea streak to NYC. Great having washer, hardly used dryer would have been less if has access to washing line outside. Nice touch owner leaving a bottle of washing up liquid & large bottles of good shampoo for stay. Owner always on other end of email for any help required. Really nice place Really good holiday. ##### Darryl S. Stayed 13 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 18 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy I loved everything about this trip. The house was beautiful—boho beachy vibes, super clean, and really unique. It honestly felt like a retreat. The gym was well equipped, which is a plus for me and my active fiancée! Also, the outdoor setup was on point. The outdoor shower at night, under the stars, was unreal. Hot tub sessions in the evening were also a favorite.The location was perfect—tons of spots to eat and drink nearby. Farmacie had amazing pastries. One day we walked over the bridge to a chill, low-key beach, and the next day we drove 8 minutes to Sea Bright. We didn’t even make it to Sandy Hook, but that’s on the list for next time. Definitely coming back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025
