Belmar Rear East Cottage is beautiful. When I booked pictures were not posted of the recent remodel. It is absolutely gorgeous. Zero complaints regarding the unit. Everything is brand new, with a very modern design. Linens are really nice, but the towels could be thicker. The kitchen is stocked really well. Soap, hand soap, Kleenex, 1 or 2, of everything is provided. My only complaint in that area is using Tide on the sheets and towels. As someone with severe allergies. I bring my own laundry detergent and wash all the towels and linens in a FREE & CLEAR brand. When I washed just 2 sets of towels, no detergent, to get the Tide out, the entire rubber gasket of the front loader was full of soap. I think the cleaners may be putting in a lot of detergent to make sure everything is really clean. However, it gave me hives (literally). The only snag we hit was we didn’t receive the welcome letter. I had to contact the property manager a couple hours before check-in, to find out where to park and get key information. I don’t know if there is an actual “Welcome letter”. We had no information on how to use fans, if it was OK to use the BBQ, etc. We did find beach chairs, and an umbrella, next to the W/D, and we found the beach badges on the table in an ceramic dish, after a little hunting. A few things that are not the owners fault, but could be addressed with a list of check-in / check-out procedures: we had a full dishwasher we had to unload, because the previous tenant probably didn’t wash them. Just an FYI for the owner: The lint filter on the dryer was really thick with lint (something the cleaning crew should clean out, so you don’t end up burning up your brand new dryer). All in all. It is a gorgeous unit, an incredible location and I would rent it again in a heartbeat.

Four houses from the beach.

There were some older items such as window shades and noisy window air conditioners. Happy to have the additional floor fan. Mostly up to date flooring, kitchen items, wi-fi and large screen TV. Clean and neat. Extra beach chairs. Ideal location but some restaurants had closed for the season. I did have easy access to 24hr. 7-11 and ice cream shop! Property manager promptly answered a question.. The beaches and boardwalks were populated but not crowded.

We stayed here three years ago. This cottage is perfect for us! It’s close to the beach which is great for me who suffers from some health issues. It’s a very cozy cottage and we look forward to renting it again.

Such a lovely cottage location and fun beach stay. All you and famiy need for a great getaway. We enjoyed so much from the cute cottage, relaxing and eating on the deck, grilling, steps to beach boardwalk and town / neighboring beaches/towns.

The house has everything you need and is so close to the beach! We really enjoyed our stay!

Enjoyed the beach and boardwalk just steps away.

Our family enjoyed this simple, clean 2 br, which is comfortable and steps away from the beach.

Came to the house and the property manager asked if we got the linen package because I complained there was no towels or sheets. We all know that was a bunch of crap because he forgot to replenish. Coffee maker but no pot. No garbage bags except one. Great location but they really should not be in the rental business because they did not take the time out to prepare the house for guests.

This was a very nice place to stay while I was working at the nearby hospital! The owners were very flexible towards my situation, and responsive to any requests I had. The place was nice, clean, and the proximity to the beach was fantastic!! Thank you again for a peaceful stay.

We were there through thanksgiving and til the second week of December. It was very nice being by the beach. Less than a block away. Many playgrounds on the beach. We bundled up and the kids had lots of fun. I loved being so close to whole foods which I ordered through amazon and usually could pick up in under an hour. The house is older but it is clean. The eclectic decorations are cute. Well stocked kitchen. The laundry is easy to access but it is shared. We only ran into the other tenant that uses the machines once during our 3 week stay and he was friendly so it wasn't awkward at all. This stay is part of our transition from our old house to our new house so it may seem odd that we went to the beach during the winter but we really did have fun collecting shells and playing on the sand.

Cottage needs major TLC, initial pic shows a paint can in tub, I thought Oh great they are painting the Bathroom. No they were covering up a rusted tub drain that dripped water. Shower curtain was full of mold. Shower tiles were patched. Stains on rug in LRM. Kitchen chairs seat cushions were stained. Small entrance deck was green with algae in spots, Outside chairs were rusty, not something you would even keep, Weeds growing through deck slots. Left after 1 night. Would not shower there!

We love Belmar!

Very close to everything and the beach. Nice place to stay.

Great cottage close to the beach!

Had a great stay. Place was what we expected simple and close to the beach. Tina was excellent and accommodated us well. Would definitely rent again.

The location was ideal, parking and necessities were provided. The owner was cooperative. the only problem was the futon when my daughter stayed over with my son and I, we had to buy sheets and it was uncomfortable for a couple of days and she complained the air conditioner was noisy.

This no frills home was perfect for what we were looking for! Very close to the beach (only a few houses away!) and a short walk away from Main Street. It came with everything needed to have a comfortable stay. Tina was very friendly and accessible when needed.

Quiet, comfortable property, beautifully situated so near to Ocean Avenue and the beach! A real 'home from home'

We stayed last week for a few days had a great time. The location was perfect one minute walk to beach and walkable to food and ice cream. Looking forward to staying again.

This house was a perfect location for beach access and provided privacy by being set back from the main house and street. The location was very quiet. We really enjoyed our stay.
