This was my first trip to the Highlands. We loved the atmosphere. This house is steps away from night life and walkable to the charming downtown. People were so friendly. The rooftop patio was amazing place to view all the surroundings and relax. It was also minutes away by car to sandy Hook National Park that had lovely sandy beaches and history for the explorers. We will definitely vacation here again.

Beautiful, clean and convenient home. Host was excellent and very responsive. There is private parking and several decks, including the rooftop patio. The location is convenient, and puts you in walking distance of many restaurants, shops and parks. Highly recommend this home for those looking in this area.

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!

We chose this property because of its location. We were staying the weekend to be near our son and his family who live in the Highlands. The location was excellent. It had a beautiful rooftop to view the fireworks on the fourth. The house was clean. And it was cool, even with the horrible heat wave and storms we had over the weekend. We were able to communicate with the owner via text. When we had a storm and lost power, he reached out to us immediately, which we greatly appreciated. The only reason we did not give it 5 stars was because it was advertised as having three beds, and the third bed was just a mattress in the living room on the floor.

Wow, what an amazing home! The 360 views from the rooftop deck are breathtaking. There are also numerous balconies to sit on to take it all in as well! The location is outstanding, easy to walk to restaurants and the water. Gerald is a wonderful host. He communicated extremely well and gave us lots of great suggestions. We will definitely by back!

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!

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.
