About this property

Ocean and Bay on LBI!

Perfectly situated just six houses from the bay and eight houses from the ocean! Water in both directions and easy access to both. Take your pick, many different activities to choose from, and gorgeous views from the roof deck!

This is the entire second floor of a duplex house with a nicely furnished roof deck, and a second rear deck off the kitchen. Both decks are private to this unit. The house is located on a great residential street, very little vehicle traffic, and at the end of the street is a small public park complete with a 700-ft long stretch of sand along the bay, kid's playground, tennis court and basketball court. At the other end is the beautiful ocean beach that LBI is known for. Walk with the kids to the bay or the ocean, bike around the neighborhood, play at the bayfront park, or venture into nearby downtown Beach Haven.

This is an updated unit with central A/C, new furnishings throughout, large-screen TV and high-speed wireless internet. The rear deck off the kitchen has flexible table seating and a Weber gas grill, great for outdoor meals, and you'll have shade there during the afternoon to take a break from the sun.

In the evening head up to the large roof deck to enjoy the amazing sunsets over the water on the bayside! The roof deck is fully furnished with a large dining table set and separate conversation furniture set for dinner and relaxing after a long day at the beach.

There are two beach cruiser bikes available for your use during your stay. Lots of folks start the day on LBI with a leisurely bike ride, run or walk up and down the main boulevard. And since this is the southern-most part of the island (less than 1/2 mile to the end and nature preserve), vehicle traffic in the morning is light and there are more pedestrians and bikers than cars.

This unit has a private outdoor shower on the ground floor and four off-street parking spaces.

Beach badges are provided.

New for 2024 - Linens and Bath Towels are provided.

The home is just 2 miles from downtown Beach Haven, including Fantasy Island, Bay Village, Thundering Surf, several mini-golf courses, ice cream galore, and many of the best restaurants and bars on the island.

Before booking you can reach me at 202 and 631 and 6490 with questions or to discuss options and possible discounts for week+ stays, or email mnovotny at backyard.homes.

Please note this is a family rental, the sleeping arrangements are best suited for up to 4 adults and 3 kids (7 guests max). We require a photo ID and do not rent to high school or college+ groups.

Excellent last minute Fall stay
We booked this rental very last minute in the Fall when we saw the weather was going to be beautiful, and the owner couldn't have been more responsive and accommodating. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything needed. Loved the quiet location. Excellent stay and excellent communication. Would definitely stay again! Thank you!

Incredible location with abundant private outdoor space!
The location of this home is incredible! Located on the quiet south end of Long Beach Island, we were a block from the ocean, a block from the bay, and a short bike ride or drive to the amusement parks, restaurants, and stores of central Beach Haven. Our beach was lifeguarded but uncrowded, and the teens had their beach right there to walk out to where they could drop their surfboards in the water and catch a wave. Sunsets were glorious on the bay just up the block. The house is as advertised, with even better outdoor spaces than can be appreciated from the photos. A lovely balcony was our setting for breakfasts, grilling, and just sitting in the shade. The large rooftop deck with a dining and sitting area was the center of family and friend time from dinnertime on. Outdoor shower was perfect. The house is very comfortable - the beds are great and we all slept like bears. Couches are great. Everything was fresh and clean. The kitchen has all the basics we needed to cook our meals at home. It's a homey, cozy and wonderful base for a seaside trip. Keep in mind the unit is on the second story of a two-family home. The owner of the downstairs unit is delightful and was patient with our teens who clearly made too much noise walking above her bedroom late the first night. Once we realized the sound carried through the floor, the teens were quiet and thoughtful. If you have a gaggle of kids you'll need to settle them down in the evenings. No biggie for most of us.

Great vacation close to all amenities

Wonderful!
We had a great time in LBI. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was fully stocked with everything you could need including kitchen items, paper products & laundry detergent. The couches were comfortable and the TV was easy to use. There were also beach chairs, bicycles that were ready to ride and kites to fly on the beach. Beautiful sunsets on the bay at the end of the street and a short walk to the beach. Mike was very responsive to all inquiries. Would definitely return.

About the host

We purchased this property in late 2017 and are thrilled to be able to share it with other families going forward. The home was already in amazing condition from the prior owners (including new central A/C and heat, new deck, roof, etc), and we are continuing to make additional improvements both inside and out, and add amenities to make it the best possible stay for our guests.

We are not new to managing, we own other rental units outside of LBI, and are really excited about this location. We use this home as well so have extra incentive to make it the best possible place to stay.

Long Beach Island is an incredible family destination! We've been coming to it all our lives, and it remains the same family-friendly beach escape that I remember as a kid. Even if you don't rent here, give LBI a try, you will not regret it!

Why they chose this property

The property is so uniquely situated close to beach and bay, with an extensive but little-known public park on the bay at the end of the street. Our two young kids really enjoy the beach, but they "love" the bay. Very calm waters, a playground, and tennis and basketball court as well. Easy to launch your kayak or paddleboard. The street is quiet and easy to ride bikes on, or take a longer bike ride down the island. And it's very close to the heart of Beach Haven with lots of activities and restaurants.
