The middle floor has 3 bedrooms, and a full bath with tub. The kids will love the bedroom with built in custom bunks with pull-out trundle. This floor also has a bedroom with a queen bed & TV and another bedroom with a queen bed. An added feature is the covered front deck where you can relax with your morning O.J. or coffee with cool southern breezes.

Upstairs, the open concept living area boasts a tasteful kitchen with a sizable island bar, stainless appliances, a living room with a gas fireplace & a dining area offering an ocean view from inside and out. The kitchen is well stocked with all the equipment and utensils you need to cook and dine in. Take a Margarita out on the comfortable top floor deck with ocean views directly off of the living space. Tucked away is a master bedroom ensuite with king bed and TV, plus an additional hallway half bath.

When it’s party time, multiple back decks all lead to the fabulous, shaded backyard that is straight out of Key West. Perfect for grillin’ and chillin’, this large space is complete with a covered tiki bar, Cable TV, outdoor speakers, small bar refrigerator, Weber gas grill, outside shower & heated pool!

The tastefully landscaped front and side yard has parking for four cars.

Clean, updated, spacious, included beach badges, beach chairs, and umbrellas.

Fantastic property!!! Very close to the beach. Within walking distance ofShip Bottom’s and Surf City’s shops and restaurants. The best part however is the Tiki Hut motif in the backyard.

Perfect week in Ship Bottom!

We spent a wonderful week at "Gone Coastal" from 6/23-6/30. This home is so welcoming and accommodating.The location was awesome. So close to the beach and the action on the boulevard. As a multigenerational group, the home offered so many amenities. The yard, upper deck, lower deck and back decks were all utilized and appreciated! Another favorite was the outdoor shower. You have a beautiful home, and provided us with a memorable week. Thanks so much! Would recommend "Gone Coastal" in a heartbeat. Hopefully we will return for another stay!

Beautiful Home - Loved Every Minute!

This lovely house is located just steps to the beautiful beach! Our views from the Kitchen and balconies were the reason we love LBI. The backyard is a dream come true for entertaining and kicking back. Clean and easy living! Everything you need to truly relax and enjoy yourself, family and friends.
