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!

Beautiful Ocean Grove

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.

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.

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.

Lovely, super clean and charming one bedroom apartment. Strict rules to follow. The kitchen needs a fan so that the smoke detectors don't go off when cooking.

Absolutely Perfect

Libby is an absolutely wonderful host. She was always quick to respond to questions, gave great recommendations for the area, and went above and beyond. Additionally, she was an absolute joy to talk to. The property is perfect and is exactly as it appears in the pictures. The place was spotless, everything worked properly, and we had no issues at all. The location was also incredible. We were able to walk to beach in few minutes and also walk a block to some really great shops and dining areas. I can't wait to go back because this was one of our favorite trips. Thank you Libby for all that you did to make this trip so memorable!
