Our group really enjoyed our stay at Marc's first-floor rental. The apartment is nicely laid-out and was spotless when we arrived. The washer-dryer and outdoor shower made dealing with sandy beachwear much easier. The location was fantastic: 1/2 block to beach and walking distance to a number of stores and shops. We're looking forward to a return visit to Ortley Beach.
The location was great and the place was better looking in person. Marc communicated with us promptly. The bike lanes and Bay Blvd were really nice for biking. Lavalette shops, restaurants and beach all were walkable and we didn’t use our car much at all. Great vacation
My family loved this house. It’s very spacious and inviting. All the amenities worked great. Fans in all the rooms and blinds to close for privacy or shade when needed. It was close enough to the beach that we got that nice breeze. We were able to walk to the fresh seafood market and Barnacle Bills. I would definitely stay here again.
The property was in a good location. Convenient 1/2 block to beach and Main Street. Well appointed house. Good communication with owner, responsive. Beds are firm, felt springs, recommend to pack extra bedding, mattress pads, etc. Could be cleaner, dusty, ants around and in property, treated with raid.
