Just a one minute drive over Highlands bridge to the Atlantic ocean. One minute walk to local beach. the Seastreak Ferry to NYC is 1 minute drive. Directly across the street from The Proving Ground(use to be WindanSea) and The Inlet Cafe which both offer plenty of delicious food and quenching drinks among many restaurants and bars in town to choose from. Come enjoy this historical town by several bodies of water.!!!! Plenty of history and fun to be had!!!!!! Welcome aboard, Gerald

Highlands Beach Getaway

My husband, three children and I had an exceptional time staying at this lovely seaside escape. I have never had a nicer or more welcoming host; the view is gorgeous and it’s a great location to local eateries and a short drive to Sandy Hook Beach or the Seastreak ferry to NYC. Would recommend for families and friends looking for a casual beach residence and a great location!

The perfect house at the perfect location.

The house is located in the perfect place with so many great things to do right there in the neighborhood. The house itself has just amazing views of the water on one side and twin lights light house on the other side. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. I definitely recommend it!

Amazing!

The pictures do not do this perfect beach house justice! You can not beat the location and view from the three decks! My first time staying in the highlands although I visit sandy hook frequently and it was everything I could have hoped for (even in the rain)! Thank you, Gerald!

Everything about our experience from booking to leaving was positive! Our host Gerald was gracious, generous with suggestions, and made us feel right at home. Great location to access the city and the shore. Highlands itself offers food, spirits, and nature within walking distance.

Overall good rental.

House was neat and clean with bathroom on each floor. Check-in process was fairly easy. Communication with property manager was good and direct. Location was excellent, walking distance from nearby restaurants. Beach was a very short 5 min drive. Roof and deck areas were enjoyable with great views. Would say rental listing was just not 100% accurate when it comes to accommodation needs. The way it’s set up I would say it sleeps 3 people comfortably instead of 4 or more. Would recommend for smaller groups. Other than that I would give 4/5 stars.

Cozy beach house

We had a great stay! . The house was cozy, the ocean views abundant, the house clean and comfortable, the location was perfect for us; serene, close to great restaurants, breakfast and ice cream shops. Quiet, relaxing and just five minutes from the beach. Gerald was a great host available at any time to chat! We’ll be heading back for sure!

Perfection!

We absolutely loved our stay! Most perfect spot in all the Highlands! Cozy, convenient and fun sums it up here! We loved being able to walk everywhere in town, we loved the openness of the house, we loved the outdoor spaces- coffee on the deck of the kitchen, wine all the way up top on the rooftop deck to watch the sunsets and fireworks (it was 4th of July) and the owner Gerald was so easy and nice to work with, absolute perfection! Book your stay today!!

Perfect for Us

The property was better than advertised for us. Comfortable, great location. Nothing too fancy, easy to relax in. Plenty of good restaurants to talk to. Sandy Hook close by. Didn't know Highlands, NJ well before this, but really enjoyed it. You can see the ocean, and the river from the top deck. Our host, Gerald, could not have been nicer. Communications easy, check in easy. Extremely helpful with recommendations. My only regret is that we didn't get to hear him play the saxophone! There was just two of us, in our mid sixties. There are 2 bedrooms on separate floors each with its own bathroom, plenty of privacy. Kitchen is more than adequate but we ate out most of the time. We were there over Labor Day week end and into the week after that, enjoying the beginning of "Locals Summer" . Easy to get to NYC via the ferry which is about 1 mile away. This was a jewel of the Jersey Shore

Chill Jersey Shore

My husband and I decided to visit Highlands for a little vacation away from the city. My husband, myself and the pups loved this little beach house. Pictures are accurate. It’s a cute beach shack vibe with lots of local amenities nearby. Thank you Gerald for the amazing experience.

We had a great (although too brief) stay at this gem of a house overlooking sandy hook NJ beach. It was clean and had an amazing rooftop deck perfect for lounging with a coffee or a glass of wine. There are restaurants a plenty within a stones throw and the beach was GORGEOUS. The owner was so nice and very responsive. We would highly recommend it!

Excellent value. Great location.

My wife and I and our good friends along with their little one spent a long weekend in the unit. The property is in a great location with dedicated parking. We were only a few minutes from Sandy Hook and also drove south to see red bank and point pleasant which were not too far off. The property is close to lots of great restaurants and coffee shops that we visited as well. The house was clean and had what you would need to live in it. Gerald was responsive and helped us with all of our questions. All in all a fantastic location, close to beach, and fantastic food options nearby. Thanks for sharing you home with us!

Perfect Scenario

Gerard was an amazing owner/host! Responded immediately to any issues and was a great guide to local hot spots. Relaxing ocean breezes, LOVED the decks, and thoroughly enjoyed the ability to walk everywhere.....even into Sandy Hook. The Inlet Cafe, Proving Ground and Chubby Pickle were wonderful spots not to mention the hot bagels just up the street. GREAT first time user of VRBO-would definitely recommend!!

Great beach weekend

We enjoyed staying at this property. Having never been to Highlands before, we loved being in walking distance to many great restaurants (with live entertainment!), food trucks and convenience stores for the staples. It was hot and covid times (outdoor dining only) but were still able to enjoy ourselves. It was a great weekend. Also, I will say that being we stayed during covid - the house was very clean and was thankful for the information on how the owner cleans the house and keeps windows open between guests. There's a small beach within walking distance which did not get crowded at all (plus for me)! And (without traffic) we were a few miles from Sandy Hook & Sea Bright beaches. Gerald was a great host, answered questions extremely quickly and directions were very clear. Will stay again when we need a weekend away!

Great summer getaway!

Gerald was an awesome host, from before we even arrived through our entire weekend. He was always available and ready to help! The location was prime for a great summer stay! We were there for a wedding a couple towns over but wish we could have spent more time in the highlands!! Beautiful views from all balconies and rooftop and plenty of room for guests :) would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone ! Thanks again!
