Place could use more care
It’s a quaint place that has a nice deck. There is a lot of activity and some noise, as it’s across the street from the back of a supermarket. This could be fairly easily overlooked. My real disappointment was that it just didn’t feel cared for well. These are a few examples of things that just made it not as comfortable and welcoming as many other rentals. The lights on the deck were not hooked up; there was no sponge or brush at the sink for washing dishes; there was a plant growing in the narrow pathway to get into the house somewhat obstructing it. The whole experience just felt like it had not been really looked at with an eye for what would make a guest feel comfortable. There were many lights without working bulbs, including overhead. The old fashioned guidebook was falling apart, covered in mildew, and should have been thrown out. This could be fixed with an hour or two of care and it could just be a cute old apartment typical of what one would expect at the shore.

Disappointing and dirty
A few problems occurred before we even got to the rental. We asked the property manage if we could stay a little longer on check out day. He gladly said yes and said we could stay until 2pm. The owner messaged me a few hours later and said no we had to be out at 10. Also the owner requested the second payment before the payment was due. So there was a lack of communication. Once we got into the rental we noticed that the bathroom had a stench. It was disgusting. I tried to Lysol it but the stench lingered and made us want to vomit. The carpets were filthy and old. The home probably has beautiful wood floors underneath but the carpets made the place look outdated and ugly. There wasn't much in the way of decor and the furniture was worn and dated. The place was unkept, sad, and neglected. The larger bedroom upstairs had a king bed. The mattress cover was covered in dog hair and other things. It was gross!! The room smelled like a wet dog. The smaller bedroom with the 2 twin beds had a closet filled with dirty stained old pillows and everything in the closet was thrown on the floor. The kitchen did not have cabinets only a dirty cloth covering the area under the sink and the closet had no door only a sheet and the light was out. The pullout couch had food and other garbage under the mattress. The couch itself smelled like dog. Beach Haven is a beautiful place to visit but this rental was far from beautiful. We were all very disappointed.

The location cannot be beat! Just a short walk to beach and across from the supermarket and theater and walking distance to everything. The house was comfortable and no issues. The owner was so responsive and easy to work with. Can’t think of anything I didn’t like!

Great stay in the heart of Beach Haven
My family (myself, my husband and our infant) had a wonderful 2 day stay here. We booked the property last minute and Nancy and David were incredibly responsive and accommodating with our check-in and check-out times. The house is in a great location that is walkable to local restaurants and shops, as well as to the beach which it made it easy for us to go back and forth as we needed. The property was as listed/described/shown in pictures; the roof deck in particular is a very lovely feature where we enjoyed our morning coffee and downtime each day.

Great Location and Deck!
The location of this property is hard to beat, and the communication with ownership was very responsive to questions/issues we had (as we did communicate with them). The property has easy access to several great restaurants and bars, a great grocery store at the end of the block, and a wonderful mini-golf course at the end of the street. The beach is easily accessible 1.5 blocks from the house. And the large outside deck provides great gathering space outside with, and without shade (there’s a large umbrella available). If you cannot do steps, this place is not for you… it’s second and third floor with Victorian-era stairs on the inside. If you are not a fan of birds, this may be a challenge as well… there are families of Finches that enjoy the outside deck as much as the guests. The bedding is a little confusing - the master is a king, and the other room has two twins that are separated but butted-up to each other and sandwiched between the walls… crawl in, crawl out. The space was clean. The space’s condition was ok; some areas were worn and functioned with some assistance (the umbrella didn’t lock, the cable wasn’t fully functional, and the AC units worked but needed cleaning). It’s a good stay with a great deck and location… if you plan to be outside, or out and about, you’ll like it much better!

Very Memorable Family Vacation
My wife began communicating with Nancy almost a year prior to our stay. All throughout the process she was very quick to respond and super friendly. My wife and I stayed here with our two kids (8 and 5) and this place was just what we were looking for. We arrived during a 100+ degree heat wave and the AC on the main floor was heavenly. Unfortunately, the two bedrooms on the upper floor had small window units that were not capable of combating against the heat, so the rooms were very stuffy until the sun set and the units were given a few hours to try and cool the rooms. Even then the rooms weren't as cool as we would have preferred. The bedrooms offered a total of four beds so we ended up actually having two additional beds available so some family came to visit for a couple of days which made our vacation that much more special. This place was super close to the beach as well as the Pearl Street Market but more importantly, The Chegg! This place is at a great location and we had a wonderful time.

BEST LOCATION!!!
Lovely Victorian home situated in a great location in Beach Haven. Close to beach, shops, restaurants, we didn't drive our car all week! The home is well maintained, my extended family rented three units, and it was nice to have three separate areas for everyone. My only regret is that we never had s'mores in the backyard :( . Nancy was very responsive, although we didn't have any issues. Highly recommend!

Solid house, great location
Had a great vacation week at this rental. The check in process was easy and the apartment well maintained. The owners were available if I needed them. The location to the beach and downtown is ideal. Although there is a rental on the first floor, the house is so solid I never heard them. I recommend Nancy & David and this property for a wonderful LBI experience.

It was our first time renting in Beach Haven and we loved it. This rental is small- perfect for our family w our pooch. We are the kind of family that enjoys some meals at home but is up and out early for the day. We walked everywhere- even to the grocery store which is right on the corner. The back yard is shared - we had nice talks with our downstairs neighbors, they were lovely. This rental is great for you if you need a casual cozy space in an awesome walkable neighborhood. Thanks again!

wonderful week and terrific owners
Location in the middle of Beach Haven could not be better. Parked the car on Saturday and it did not move for the week. Beautiful weather -- there is something magical about LBI. Property quaint, met and exceeded all expectations. Wonderful backyard and facilities. Most impressive are the owners: Nancy and David are very attentive, and very customer focused. We highly recommend the property and the owners.

Great location!
This is a great spot close to the beach with all the basics you need for a good beach vacation. We loved that we were able to bring our dog and our friends bought theirs. They are both well behaved dogs yet many places want you to leave your fur baby home! The backyard is divided up nicely so the top floor and bottom floor have their own bbq and space to hang. We would stay again!

PERFECT LOCATION for a great week!
Our family of 5 stayed here for one week and were delighted with the location! A quick walk to EVERYTHING... the beautiful beach with life guards, the bay with amazing sunsets, the park with concerts, the theater with great shows, awesome restaurants, mini golf, the market, shopping, ice cream, and so much MORE made this an ideal place for a family vacation. Fantasy Island and Bay Village are just down the road. Two hotels at the end of the block have live bands, great food and drink. The back yard patio, laundry area, and outside shower were welcome additions! Spacious inside bathroom, cozy bedrooms, great light, and lots of hooks to hang things on, made everything very comfortable! Beach tags and beach chairs were also included! It is exactly as described in the listing but BETTER. Don't let the stairs stop you. Loved all the exercise we got this week. You can leave the car behind! Our children (15, 18, 22) were able to be very independent and enjoy all that Beach Haven offers! Owners welcomed us on arrival and were very friendly and helpful in booking the house and responding to questions before and during our stay. We are so happy to have found this rental. Highly recommend. Hope to be back soon! Our thanks to Nancy and David!
