We had an amazing two-week stay at this beach house. At first, we were a little hesitant about being a few minutes off Long Beach Island, but it ended up being one of the best parts of our vacation. Being right on the bay was incredible. We spent so much time fishing, swimming, kayaking, and simply floating in the water with tubes. It was such a peaceful and relaxing setting.The house itself was spacious, with generously sized bedrooms and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The neighborhood was quiet, and the location was perfect - close enough to easily enjoy the beach and everything the area has to offer.The kitchen was extremely well stocked with everything we needed, and the separate beverage fridge was a thoughtful touch that gave us so much extra space in the main fridge.One of our favorite amenities was the kayaks. We used them almost every evening after returning from the beach. We also brought a large inflatable tube that fit 5 people, tied it off to the dock, and spent hours floating in the bay. Those ended up being some of our favorite memories from the trip.The host was also wonderful to work with from start to finish. She was friendly, responsive, and very receptive whenever we had a question or needed anything.Overall, this home exceeded our expectations, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. It was the perfect place to relax, make family memories, and enjoy everything the bay has to offer. We highly recommend it!

Amy, thank you so much for this incredible review! It genuinely made my day to read. I’m so glad your family embraced the bay with the kayaks, the floating tubes tied to the dock, the fishing…that’s the kind of experience I hope every guest has. Those are the best memories! I’m also happy the kitchen setup worked well. The beverage fridge is my favorite new addition. It was a true pleasure hosting you and your family, and I hope to welcome you back to Beach Haven West someday soon. 🦀

Felisa our host was helpful before and so nice and accommodating during our stay. The home was perfect for our group of 7 and the first floor bedroom and step in shower were both perfect for my 91 year old mom. Everyone in our group commented how super comfy the beds and pillows were. The kitchen was so nicely provisioned with lots of coffee pods, and things you don’t normally see in a rental like plastic storage containers, pantry items, and a great collections of mugs, pots and pans, and helpful gadgets. Highly recommended this home to anyone visiting Manahawkin!

About the host

Hosted by Felisa Palagi

Host profile image
My husband and I have always lived near the water—it’s where we feel most at peace. These days, it’s just the two of us and our dogs now that our son lives up in Boston (sorry but we can’t rent to pets; one dog has an averse reaction). We spend a lot of time at this home, and it’s more than just a rental to us—it’s a place we come to slow down and reconnect. One of my favorite things to do is sit out back with a cup of coffee and watch the waterfowl float by. We’ve tried to create a space that’s comfortable, easy, and ready for real downtime. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We love that Beach Haven West offers the best of both worlds—peace and quiet when you want it, local shops and amenities, and easy access to LBI when you’re ready for restaurants, beaches, or more to do. The lagoon is calm and inviting, and the neighbors are families that are friendly but low-key. It’s the kind of place where mornings are slow and evenings are breezy—just how we like it.

What makes this property unique

It’s not just a house to us—it’s a place we’ve poured thought into. From cozy throws, beds that go up to king-sized, puzzles and games by the dining table, and a variety of toys available to you in the shed, we’ve tried to make it feel like a true getaway without the fuss. There’s enough space to stretch out, spots to gather, and plenty of ways to enjoy the water—whether that means paddling out, casting a line, or just watching the reflections from the deck.
