Great property — perfect for our needs

Our stay was exactly how you want a VRBO experience to go. The booking and check-in processes were seamless. The cottage is in an ideal location. It’s private but right next door to the owners so they’re there if you need them, and are so nice. The cottage is spotless, well-stocked and superbly decorated. Overall, we loved it and have already booked our next stay there this summer!

AMAZING!

We had such an amazing week in Lavallette with our 5, 3, and 9mo! The cottage was perfect, it was so clean, updated, cozy, and convenient. No detail was missed and anything we could have needed was thought of. It was right near the bay beach and gazebo which was great for the kids. The hosts were so sweet, friendly and communicative. We are already planning our trip back!

We had the BEST time

If I could give 6 stars I would. The house was spotless and a great size for a family of 4. Everything was so simple- from the keyless entry, fresh sheets and towel, and modern finishes. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness, toddler rails were put on the bed, the beach wagon stocked with toys, and Disney music playing on entry. Also the location is awesome, in the heart of town by the park and shops!

Immaculate beach cottage

My family and I had a great stay at this Lavallette beach cottage. The place was spotless and well maintained, and was the perfect amount of space for my wife and two little ones. It was a great location as it was just steps away from the bay, and a 5 minute walk to the beach or surrounding restaurants. There was no need to bring any beach equipment as the rental had it all - chairs, umbrella, and toys for the kids. The owners were very friendly and always around in case we had any questions. Highly recommend and my family will look to come back here again!

Fantastic Week in Lavalette

The cottage was absolutely fantastic. Exactly as described and reviewed by previous guests. Kristen and Michael are perfect hosts. Everything inside and outside of the cottage is top of the line. Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Wish I could move in forever! Our hosts were helpful and accommodating. And super friendly! I would highly recommend this cottage to everyone looking for a delightful, relaxing vacation in beautiful Lavalette.

Quiet & Relaxing

Great location—nice, quiet neighborhood on the bay side, but a close enough walk to the ocean beach. We could hear music playing at the Gazebo from the house, so we could enjoy the atmosphere while relaxing on the quaint patio. The cottage was close to basketball, tennis and pickle ball courts. Kristin and Michael were helpful during our stay. They offer plenty of supplies: beach chairs, sand toys, crabbing cage, corn hole game, and so much more.

Can't wait to return!

We recently stayed at this beach house and had an amazing experience! The cleanliness of the place was top-notch, which made our stay comfortable and worry-free. The updated features throughout the house added a modern touch that we really appreciated. Everything we could possibly need was provided, making it feel like a home away from home. The size of the cottage was just perfect for our group, offering plenty of space. The location is fantastic – just a short walk to the beach and close to local shopping and restaurants. The interior decor is beautifully done, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. We highly recommend this rental and would love to come back again in the future!

Flawless Cottage

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Mike and Kristin's beautiful cottage! Everything was perfect, from the super comfy beds and bedding (which is provided - a plus), to the well appointed kitchen, the soft well-sized beach towels, beach chairs and umbrella provided. My parents joined us for dinner and Mike and Kristin went out of their way to set up an outdoor table to eat at (which looked picture perfect) and even had games to set up. They really go above and beyond to make their guests feel welcomed and comfortable in every way. My family and I hope to be able to stay again next year!
