Bright, airy, comfortable, invitingly & pleasingly decorated, and exceptionally clean place to stay. Easy check in & had everything we needed for our short stay. Parking was easy this time of year right in front of the property. Nice, quiet neighborhood and easy walk to beautiful beach, boardwalk, some shops & restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!

What an amazing cottage by the beach! The decor, comfortability, and cleanliness were top notch and the location in close proximity to the beach and the cute town was perfect! We loved having beach chairs, towels, and badges provided. Nice touches such as snacks and plenty of coffee were greatly appreciated! Cody and his team are premier hosts for a reason.....communication and professionalism were beyond terrific! They reached out every step of the way to make our stay so enjoyable and carefree! Would absolutely stay here again and again!!

Great VRBO cottage and in the perfect location. Just a few blocks to the beach and boardwalk. Very convenient location to shops, restaurants, bars, etc. While there wasn’t off-street parking, it was never a problem to park in front of the cottage. Plenty of street parking available! We really enjoyed everything about this VRBO and the host was great.

The house worked wonderfully for a birthday weekend away for my wife and our adult daughters. It is a great jumping off point for Monmouth County sites. Walkable to the beach and great local restaurants, including Klein's and the Bel Mar Windmill! The house is comfortable, clean and cheerful. The hosts are great and reachable through messaging and email. Highly recommend.

Definitely recommend this home for small groups! It's a small beach house, but it's super cozy & close to all that Belmar has to offer! Super clean property, super responsive property owners, quiet & safe neighborhood. We stayed at the end of March & even with the influx of people for the rescheduled St. Paddy's Day parade, the neighborhood was relatively quiet. There is a park on the beach, but there is also one down the block the other direction if you want to stay away from the sand & beach one day.

Fantastic property. Very clean, good beds. Really great that they have linens and towels, etc. so we didn’t have to pack a bunch of extra stuff. Having beach badges was HUGE and a wonderful cherry on top. Definitely recommend if you are visiting the Jersey Shore.

Clean Space in a Central Location

We really enjoyed our stay! The description and photos match the space. Only a short walk to either the beach or to main street. The house was clean, the beds are comfortable and check-in was easy. We stayed during off season, so parking was easy even though it was street parking. While the house was warm, the floors get really cold, so bring your slippers!
