Ocean Front. Amazing Views. Arcade. Hot Tub.

5 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, 2 Kitchens.

Amazing views of the ocean right in front of the Twin Rocks! Two separate cottages with a common porch are rented together with a combined 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, 2 separate kitchen/living/dining rooms on a large ocean front lot with a hot tub and an Arcade!

Our oceanfront beach house is on a big, private lot in south Rockaway Beach located right in front of the Twin Rocks. The house consists of 2 units with separate entrances that are connected by a common porch. Each unit has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen, dining and living rooms with amazing views of the ocean. The 5th bedroom, 3rd bath and laundry room are located downstairs and accessed through a separate outside entrance.

Sliding glass doors in the dining rooms lead to a large deck in the back of the house with a hot tub and panoramic views of the ocean and Twin Rocks. A private path leads through our yard directly to the beach right in front of the Rocks.

The house even has its own retro arcade downstairs in the garage to entertain the kids (and adults) when the weather is bad. The game selection will vary and may include foosball, ping pong and arcade games such as Asteroids Deluxe and Donkey Kong multicade (60 classic games in 1). All games are set for free play, so no need to bring quarters. Please note that some arcade games may not be operational during your stay, these are older games that sometimes break and we can`t always fix them right away.

The 5 bedrooms each have queen beds and there is one futon in the downstairs 5th bedroom, also two fold out thin foam mattresses for extra sleeping (located in two of the bedroom closets (10 people in Queen beds plus 4 people on foam mattress/sofas for 14 total).
PLEASE NOTE: The sofas are not sleeper sofas and we no longer have futons in the living rooms.
With 3 separate spaces (North Unit, South Unit and downstairs 5th bed/bath), this is a great place for an extended family gathering or a multi-family getaway or for any large group that wants to vacation together, but still have some private space.

There is enough parking in the front for about 6 cars.

Amazing stay! Supported 3 families comfortably! Loved everything about our stay! Would definitely stay again!

The family was very happy with the arrangement of the property. And with the view.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
Had a great stay at the property! Perfect for two families and a mother-in-law. Two separate living quarters with two bedrooms in each house with living room and kitchen plus a basement apartment (for either a couple or your mother-in-law). The only drawback is in the south house: the shower is very small and a 'big" person will not fit in it. The shower in the north house is a normal size. The shower in the basement is a good normal size as well. It's very quiet at night, you will sleep like a rock. The beach is literally less than a 5 minute walk out the back....a walkway trail to the beach with the best view around. Hot tub works well and was a great way to relax a little bit. Arcade, though, dated was fun for the kids....table tennis and Pac-Man were the favorites. Property is pet friendly. The host was very informative with the information we needed to have a great time at the beach getaway.
