Amazing house
Maryann and Tom are incredible hosts! Very easy to contact if needed for anything. The house was perfect! Came down for a weekend birthday celebration for my daughter with my 3 other kids and husband and my brother and sister in law. This house was the perfect location. Steps away from the beach, few min drive to Acme and about 12 min from fantasy island (which was great at night for the kids!). Would love to stay here again!

Exactly as depicted, amazing hosts and beautiful home!
The title says it all but add to that the location, distance to the beach, the home itself (sunset from the hot tub and all) and, again, super hosts! Voila top notch trip :-) Thank you for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Ann Gutchigian

Host profile image
Our home has been in our family since 1958. We used it mostly for our use from 1958 to 1978. We started renting in 1979 off and on through 2002. My husband Tom and I bought the house from my family in 2006. We have done 3 large renovations between 2007-2020. This is our labor of love. We love sharing the home with large families and groups, providing a great place to gather and make memories, just like my family has in the past.

The third floor is locked out for Owners who may be present during your stay, with own entrance, and the far right 2 parking spots next to fence are reserved. We do not share the back yard or rooftop deck areas- these are for you. We have our own 3rd floor backdoor entrance and front deck with grill. You can read our numerous reviews that state our renters loved staying with us and our presence was welcomed when needed. If we are here during your stay & you need us let us know. We will say Hi if we see you. Our home is for your enjoyment. Vacation is time to have fun, laugh, & enjoy all LBI has to offer. Fun in the sun, ocean & bay play is our motto! Please knock if we are present, text or call us if you need us.

Why they chose this property

My Parents bought the home so we had a place for our large family to gather. We bought out the family so we could renovated and gather our family and growing families several times a year.
