Romantic, Way Better than Hotel - Block from Beach Free Wifi - Enhanced Cleaning

*** LAST MINUTE AVAILABILITY DUE TO CANCELLATION JUNE 1-10th! Nestled on the side of a 4BR Villa, our little "mother-in-law" apartment is a perfect weekend getaway retreat. Perfect alone or with that special someone, this apartment is a jewel. Brand new with sitting area, kitchen, beautiful bathroom, and only steps from the beach. This one-bedroom apartment with a Queen bed is rented often together with the full villa (4BR) but if the main house is rented separately or we are there and don't have family or guests, we'll let you in on the biggest kept secret in OG. Amazing quality in comparison to the price of a hotel room at the Asbury Hotel. Come for a weekend, check out the Stone Pony or Madam Marie's! But then come to the quiet. You'll fall in love with Ocean Grove.

We have beach badges for you, beach towels, and beach chairs. And lots of recommendations!

Even lovelier than the photos! Private, tucked-in apartment a block from the beach and boardwalk. A quick walk to Asbury Park and Bradley Beach, but with Ocean Grove's beautiful Victorian architecture and wonderful hosts! Thank you, Libby, for the best R&R I have had in a very long time. ❤️

What a gem!
Top marks for this beautiful and spacious in-law apartment just a block from both the beach and Main Street. The host provided a smooth and comprehensive check-in process, reached out during our stay to ensure we were satisfied and added some thoughtful touches to make our stay a happy one. The host's care and upkeep of the apartment is evident and welcome. Can't recommend this property enough - we're already planning our next stay.

“Location, location, location. We arrived on a Tuesday and parked our car in front. We didn’t get back into our car until Friday, when we left.” The beach, restaurants, shops, music, The Great Auditorium, Asbury Park, the boardwalk and ice cream! A perfect place to visit for a TRUE vacation.

Perfect getaway
We look forward to our annual visit to ocean grove and this is our second time at this property. Without hesitation we will continue to book here as it’s the perfect suite for my wife and I to spend the weekend. A short walk to the beach, and all the shops and restaurants in OG, truly perfect location. Libby is a great host always available and responsive! Can’t wait for next year.

Beautiful little apartment by the shore
We really loved out stay at Libby's adorable apartment in Ocean Grove. Very tastefully decorated and just felt warm and inviting overall. We loved the convenience of being only a block away from the beach and Libby provides you with two beach badges, towels and a locker on the beach with umbrella and chairs. We look forward to staying with her again soon!

Pleasantly Surprised
This was the perfect mid-week getaway for my husband and I in OG. This quaint apartment was just the right size and was just as it appears in the pictures online. We were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality touches... Libby (our host) greeting us quickly, the bottle of champagne, beer, candy jar, chocolates by the bed, bathrobes, al the beach gear, and very clean. Short walk to OG beach, OG auditorium and boardwalk pavilion. Waking to Asbury Park is doable as well. Always found parking in front of the house. Our 14-year old came for a day...the pull out bed/love seat was perfect size for her. When renters are in the main house, you will hear them above you but Libby was great at handling that and even suggested quiet places to visit in the area. Do not let that be a deterrent to renting this gem!

Ocean Grove has a unique history and culture that makes for a different (in a good way) beach vacation experience. The rental was close to the beach and near the center of town making it super convenient and the host was welcoming and supportive, insuring we had a wonderful experience. We would highly recommend this property.

A cozy place; perfect size for my bestie & myself to spend the weekend! Much better than a hotel. And so quiet, you forget it’s part of a bigger house. The pullout was super comfy. Also the lighting is *amazing* for makeup! The lock was acting up the first night, but Libby helped us ASAP with a temporary fix, had the lock taken care of the next morning, & a backup plan just in case! It’s was a pleasant walk to food & shops, about 10/12 minutes, and an even closer walk to the beach 😍

We had a great time. Our location was so close to everything….restaurants, the beach, Asbury park etc. Upon arrival, in which we were able to check in early, we met Libby (Host) what a sweet lady. She showed us all we needed to know. We stayed in the MIL Suite. It was so beautiful and very well kept. She made sure we had everything and more. We had a late check out as well. This place was pristine and I would recommend to anyone interested. I plan on returning .

This was our first trip to Ocean Grove and we totally enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect since it was 1 block to the beach and one block to the shopping and restaurants. Historic Asbury Park is only a short walk also.
