Beach-block Bungalow at LBI: Classic wood-paneled Cape Cod, 100 yards from beach
This beach getaway has rustic 1930s charm with all the amenities, on a quiet dead-end street (perfect for kids) that ends at the gorgeous white-sand beach. With loads of off-street parking, pull your car in once and forget it: the Acme grocery is 4 blocks walk and has everything you need or forgot.
Very very very rustic. Felt more like a lake/ mountain bungalow. Host was very responsive and easy to communicate with.

The BEST location
This rental was great! It was so clean when we arrived! A true old school beach house steps from the beach! The owners provided pretty much everything which was so convienent! Bedrooms are small but kitchen dining area and living room have so much room for everyone!

Perfect beach house
This house is a gem! It's a 1930s two-story beach house, 4 houses in from the beach, and it was perfect for our family vacation to LBI.
The house is certainly older and lacks some of the updates you'll find in newer vacation rentals. But it has everything that matters. The bathroom is clean and accessible, and there is also an outdoor shower (with a door) for rinsing off after the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked -- good oven/range, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, microwave, and lots of dishware, flatware, and cups and mugs.
There were five of us staying here -- four adults and one toddler (2 years old). The house is small to fit all of us, but it worked fine.
Of course, the greatest thing about this house is the location; the beach is just a few steps away, and it's convenient enough that we could go to the beach and make multiple trips back and forth throughout the day. There is also a small avenue on the other side of the house that's perfect for walking, jogging, or biking, and there are plenty of restaurants and ice cream shops a walk or short drive away. There's also plenty of parking on the property (probably 4 cars could easily fit, maybe more with some maneuvering).
There is also a separate upstairs apartment that was vacant during our stay.
The owner was very communicative and answered all of my questions quickly. It's a family-owned vacation house and they hadn't hosted guests in a few years, so we were glad to be the test subjects.

I grew up not far away in a Philadelphia suburb, and have vacationed in this house with my extended family my entire life. My father was an airline pilot, so I’ve been fortunate to travel and have always enjoyed the hospitality industry. I love to meet other travelers and people relaxing away from work.

This house has been in the family for five generations. With your help, we’d love to sustain its rustic charm for another five.
この宿泊施設の特徴
This is one of the few original 1930s Cape Cod style houses on its block. While most have been torn down and expanded to cover their lots, this is a modest house on an oversized lot with plenty of open space - for parking, grilling, eating around the picnic table, or playing frisbee or catch with kids. Surrounded by pines, it has a more secluded feel despite being only 100 yards from the beach, with no streets to cross. We would never tell you to let your kids bike or play in the street, but since it’s a quiet dead end that’s what we always did growing up. It’s got a garage full of beach, bike, and play gear, plus an outdoor shower to rinse off the beach before tracking sand into the house
