About this property

Romantic, Way Better than Hotel - Block from Beach Free Wifi - Enhanced Cleaning

*** LAST MINUTE AVAILABILITY DUE TO CANCELLATION JUNE 1-10th! Nestled on the side of a 4BR Villa, our little "mother-in-law" apartment is a perfect weekend getaway retreat. Perfect alone or with that special someone, this apartment is a jewel. Brand new with sitting area, kitchen, beautiful bathroom, and only steps from the beach. This one-bedroom apartment with a Queen bed is rented often together with the full villa (4BR) but if the main house is rented separately or we are there and don't have family or guests, we'll let you in on the biggest kept secret in OG. Amazing quality in comparison to the price of a hotel room at the Asbury Hotel. Come for a weekend, check out the Stone Pony or Madam Marie's! But then come to the quiet. You'll fall in love with Ocean Grove.

We have beach badges for you, beach towels, and beach chairs. And lots of recommendations!

It was such a pleasure to meet you as I don't get to meet every guest! Thanks for being great guests. We had fantastic "local summer" weather and I hope you'll consider staying with us again. The main house is also available in the summer if you decide to bring the whole family!
