House was very clean and had everything we needed. Cody responded to inquiries about area recommendations quickly. Great location and comfortable stay. Welcome basket with snacks a little bonus. Only recommendation would be to put hooks in bathroom to hang clothes. Thank you for making our mini vacation comfortable and enjoyable.

Very nice little property with a fenced in yard. A short walk to the beach, in a very quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the stay and wish it would’ve been longer.

2nd time staying at this property with my mom and toddler and it was perfect! A clean home with driveway access only few blocks from the beach. Short drive to great restaurants and other cute seaside towns too. We’re already looking forward to returning next summer!

Our two-bedroom, one-bathroom house near the ocean was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and very comfortable. It had everything we could possibly need to enjoy a wonderful vacation for three people.Our host, Cody, was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. He responded to our messages quickly and was always willing to come by and help whenever we needed anything.Although we couldn’t see the ocean from our window, the beach was only about a two-minute drive away, making the location very convenient.We truly enjoyed our stay and would gladly give this property a five-star recommendation to anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us and for making our vacation so enjoyable. We sincerely appreciate your hospitality!!!

Great weekend at the Beach Bum in Belmar

My husband and I were looking for a long weekend (post Labor Day) at the beach & we found it at the Beach Bum. Good location. Lots of choices for good restaurants close by. The house was clean and quiet. Cody was attentive and accessible.

The perfect shore rental!

The Beach Bum is a super clean, well maintained property - with everything you could possibly need for a vacation stay down the shore (towels, beach chairs, kitchen appliances, washer/dryer). It is a very cute property inside and out. The driveway is huge asset, as parking can be hard to find during the summer months in Belmar.

Lovely small cottage

This was just as described online (perhaps even a bit cleaner and nicer than you can see in the pictures). Cottage was very well-appointed for a short stay, everything was in great condition. Host is very thoughtful. Very short walk to beach, food, playground, etc. No complaints!

Cozy House At the Beach

The property is as listed and when you walk in it is just adorable. Everything about the beach house is great, including the convenience of parking since parking on the street can be difficult. I loved how easy it was to check in and checking out was a breeze.The host Cody is gracious and will respond to any questions you may have before and during your stay.I will definitely book a stay there again.

Cozy beach bungalow

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at this cozy bungalow. The property was exactly as advertised. Very clean, nice location on a quiet street, nice amenities. Cody was very accommodating and very responsive. We enjoyed the fresh coffee beans every morning and the outdoor patio was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the evening. Will definitely plan to stay again when we visit Belmar. Thanks for making our beach getaway so enjoyable and hassle free!

Perfect space for what we needed

We needed a quiet place to stay for a wedding with all the amenities of a home. We had looked into the wedding blocks at a hotel that also had a kitchens in each suite but we needed two bedrooms and this was a better price per night with some additional privacy. This was my first time booking through VRBO and the host was great at helping us accommodate an earlier check in and answering all my questions in a very timely manner.

Relaxing short vacation

I booked a 4 night stay for my family (2 adults, 1 child). I was very happy about our stay. The house was very clean, the beds were comfortable, I really liked that we didn't have to bring our own bedding and that there were extra beach towels. It was an easy 3 block walk to the beach, and the location is quiet and family friendly. My daughter loved the solar lights that were hung outside. It was a great little place for the three of us. Check in instructions and address were emailed a few days before the trip and were easy to follow.

Nice place for family of 3 or couple and 3rd wheel

Small but enjoyable. 3+ blocks to beach or main street restaurants and bars. Streaming TV is fine just make sure you have your passwords. Lack of cable TV meant i had to to go out to watch hockey game which i couldnt stream. Other than that very nice stay.

Stop looking - rent this place!

Located 5 blocks from everything in all directions, this beach bungalow has everything you need and is everywhere you want to be. 2 comfortable bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a newly redone kitchen and comfy living room/dining table. Private and quiet, off the street with ample parking. Cody is incredibly responsive and has thought of everything you need (including coffee beans and grinder). Walk 3.5 blocks to the beach and 4 blocks to Main St and all the restaurants. Highly recommend.
