About this house rental
This Long Beach Island, NJ vacation rental in Ship Bottom is the third home from the beach and offers magnificent ocean views from the living room, front deck balcony and kitchen, and ocean and bay views from its rooftop deck. It features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an outdoor shower, living room with 75 inch flat screen TV, fully equipped kitchen, high-definition cable, high speed internet, washer/dryer, off street parking and two zoned central air conditioning and heating. It is located on a wide street with ample parking and is only 2 short walking blocks to the Barnegat Bay Watershed and nearby Marina. Swimming, sunbathing, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, jet-skiing and more are all just literally steps away, as is many of Ship Bottom's family day vacation conveniences, including two miniature golf courses, a small arcade, bakery (that boasts the world's best jelly doughnut), ice cream, candy, pizza, bagels, shops, cafes and many restaurants.
So, come and indulge yourself and your family this summer with a beach vacation to Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island (colloquially known as LBI). This narrow 18 mile barrier island off the New Jersey coastline boasts some of the most naturally beautiful beaches on the east coast, as well as hundreds of boutique shops and fine restaurants. Recently, LBI was ranked the 4th most ritzy summer locale in the country, behind only Nantucket, a tiny island off Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Martha's Vineyard, and Montauk, Long Island (August 2022). The island is almost always the coolest of all of New Jersey's barrier islands on hot summer days due primarily to its location. It is approximately 30 miles north of Atlantic City.
LBI operates a free shuttle bus service, seven days a week, from 10 am to 10 pm, servicing all 18 miles of the island.
Vacationers looking for a break from the sand or the surf can spend a day doing other fun things. Travel to the north end of the island and sight-see Barnegat Lighthouse State Park or shop Viking Village. In Beach Haven to the South, one can take their little ones to the Fantasy Island Amusement and Water Parks, experience the Black Pearl Pirate Excursion, or visit the Museum of NJ Maritime History.
In the evening, one can quietly wind down and relax on one of the two outdoor decks while listening to the waves of the ocean crash against the surf, or enjoy many of the island's nightlife spots, including Joe Pop's (walking distance), Terrace Tavern and Nardi's Tavern & Grille.
This home features a master bedroom with a king sized bed, a second bedroom with two twin beds and a third bedroom with two sets of twin bunk beds, comfortably sleeping 8. It is perfect for one large or two small families. This home was not flooded by Super Storm Sandy. It was fully renovated with new furnishings in 2017.
Linens and towels are not provided.

I would highly recommend this beach house to anyone looking to visit LBI. Perfect size for our family of five. Our host responded to all messages quickly and was a pleasure to work with.

We had a great week at this property! The house is steps away from the sand & we did not even have to wear flip flops! The beach itself is expansive & just beautiful. The common areas of the home are spacious and nicely appointed. The couches in the living room were big & comfortable & the kitchen had a banquette that made great use of the space. There were water views from the kitchen as well as the rooftop which we loved the best! There was a hightop table for (4) so you could see the ocean and (2) couches and a big weber grill. We ate out most nights but we enjoyed snacks & cocktails before dinner and take out on some nights. Every morning we also had coffee upstairs! The beds were very comfortable, however, the second bedroom has 2 sets of bunk beds and the 3rd bedroom had 2 single beds. We did not "push" the 2 singles together but you could do that if a couple wanted to. We gave the largest bedroom to our daughter and her husband because they have an infant & it could accomodate their portable crib and baby "gear" without a problem. The host was amazing to deal with and very accommodating; he allowed us to check in early because the house was ready (did not have to do that). When we asked any question, the response was quick & helpful. We could not have asked for a better experience!!
