Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

A romantic getaway or a quick weekend trip starts at this charming Rockaway Beach cottage in this complex. This 350 sq ft cabin is cozy, comfortable, and conveniently close to shopping and dining, not to mention the beach. And the best part? It's dog-friendly, so you can bring along the medium-size family pooch - no need to find a dog sitter! Note that there is no yard, but there is a shared common area.

The main commercial district of Rockaway Beach is less than a block away from this home and features a range of restaurants, cafes, and shops. The beach itself is just across the street, so you can walk out of your back door and have your toes in the sand in mere minutes. Jetty Fishery and Marina is a little more than three miles north, and you're surrounded in every direction by opportunities to hike, kayak, canoe, fish, and otherwise spend time enjoying the great outdoors.

Bright and welcoming, this home is ready to welcome you after a long day of traveling or exploring the area. Kick back and relax on the futon while you browse the cable channels on the flatscreen TV, or enjoy a quick meal on the picnic table outside. The kitchen, though compact, is perfectly suited to preparing a tasty dinner, with a mini-fridge, a stove, a microwave, and a toaster. This home is also dog-friendly! (One dog max - please note an additional nightly pet fee and a weight limit of 40 pounds applies.)

Start planning your Rockaway Beach vacation and book this home today!

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. No more dogs are allowed.

Christmas stay
I rented out a home to be able to have a special Christmas with my daughter. Once we FINALLY got inside. We brought our things inside and had to wipe the couch down because it was sticky and full of crumbs. Was told it had a full kitchen. When im told full kitchen I expect to have bowls, mixing bowls, baking pans, muffin tin, ect. Bought alot of food for a Christmas dinner and treats and was not able to make most of it. Went to the store and bought plastic cups. Had to wash all dishes before using. Everything was filthy. I wiped up a spill on floor and the napkin was black filth. Would never let myself of my child lay on any of the floors. Towels were dingy looking. While sitting on couch grab a blanket because the draft from the door is very chilly. Bed was okay. Wasnt expecting it to be againt the wall. Stains on carpet. I understand the home is older but doesnt mean it cant be kept up a little more. Definitely would not stay here again.

Not what was expected
Exterior courtyard long past due for maintenance. Rental interior clean except bedroom carpet which was stained and needs to be replaced. Bathroom floor tile cracked. And shower handle close to falling off. Kitchen sink hot water valve under sink turned off. And no drain stoppers for both sinks. Giving this place 3 stars is being generous

OK for beach house.
Had difficulty with lockbox. People in unit next to us had same problem. Picture showed TV in living area but it was in bedroom which as an “older” couple didn’t fit our needs. Thankfully we had an IPad, although Wi-Fi was slow at times. Biggest complaint was that the kitchen only had 3 forks, 1 teaspoon, 1 tablespoon, 1 ice tea spoon, 2 knives. 2 bowls and 2 coffee mugs. This unit was advertised for 4 people. Would we stay here again? Probably not.

Comfortable Stay
We had some minor issues with the property, but they were quickly resolved by the property manager. The property manager was kind and attentive to our needs. It was comfortable for two people, but would’ve been crowded with four. Refrigerator was small but adequate and kept things cold. Towards the back of the refrigerator things froze. I’m not sure what setting it was on. The bed was comfortable. The towels were very plush

It’s okay
It’s not luxurious, but it is a block from the beach and it’s affordable. This unit is in a weird little complex with multiple other units, all of which have paper thin walls and some of which allow dogs. Your dog may meet up with a mean dog belonging to another guest. There are two key boxes and the instructions on how to enter the unit don’t specify which one to use. The unit is super cold and impossible to warm up. The shower is teensy and dark. Everything looks way dingier in real life than it does in the online listing. Honestly, the only benefits are that it’s clean and close to the water. I plan to spend a little more and get a different listing next time.

Uncomfortable furniture
What is it with uncomfortable leather counches? I know this was also a futon and yet as uncomfortable as it was to sit on, I can't imagine sleeping on it. The bed....going for Princess and the Pea? It was so high I had to roll onto it. Overall very clean, but the furniture was lacking imo.

Nice little beach bungalow
Property as advertised. When we had an inquiry it was answered and taken care of right away. Location is great, just half a block to the beach. The unit could use some upkeep. We would stay here again.

Could easily walk to the beach and around town, was a bit small but for two the space worked just fine, all basic nessacities are included, dishware, stove, oven, microwave, toaster, small fridge, towels, soap, etc. Overall was a nice getaway for my girl and I.

Quaint, Functional
We had a lovely stay, it was cute and had all the basic amenities necessary. The bedroom smelt strongly of a dog when we arrived but nothing air freshener spray couldn’t fix. Perfect location a block away from the beach and right in town. The only request would have been having the option to recycle. Would stay here again!

Carpets very dirty. Can opener not functional. We bought you a new one. Black hair on bathroom hand towel. Bathroom shower very small. Bed is falling apart. Disconnected from the frame at the top. People smoking a lot in courtyard outside our kitchen window. When windows open the windowsill frame is filthy and full of bugs. We won’t be back.

Clean, no WiFi, no TV
I will overlook the blue florescent lighting, but no WiFi, or TV? Modern day vacations, or work get aways require accessibility to the internet and cable...

Very happy
They had towels, mostly all dishes you would need to cook with, a few blankets, place is very clean, towels, they had a microwave (1000 watts), and coffee maker, cleaning supplies. Even though you're paying and expect some of these things it's still nice when they go the extra step or two to make it comfortable and convenient.

No
The Starfish is not easy to find at night. It is an outbuilding of the property number. Named, not numbered with no direction offered or given. 45 minutes to find the correct door. Parking is not close in peak season. Unloading our car my wife and infant were followed by a menacing character with a screwdriver. I understand this is outside the control of the property but it is the general environment of the surrounding community. Kids drinking on their cars and junkie types were about in the evening. There is not wifi or cell reception inside the building. The bathroom tile floor had no grout offering a surface that cannot be cleaned. The resulting smell of urine from previous guests missing the mark filled the bathroom. In the morning the yard of the property filled with the guests of about half a dozen similar rentals. Things became loud quickly. Other guests crowded the narrow doorway to our rental not moving for my wife and child as they prepared to exit. Any other accommodation would be a better option. Just NO.
