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!

Awesome location!

This home is in the middle of it all! We have family in the area and so know it well. You can sit on the deck and listen to nightly music at the Proving Grounds (don’t worry... not too loud,) and also are a stone’s throw from our favorite restaurant around - Inlet cafe. You can walk to Sandy Hook so it’s free, but if you want a beach day, I’d drive. Too many other great places to eat and play within walking distance. Most are dog friendly. Gerald is incredibly responsive. He checked in on us a couple times but not at all intrusive. He was flexible with our check in/out times since the calendar worked. He also made sure to give us each a key. Wonderful vacation.

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.

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.

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

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!
