Perfect Location
Mr. Higgins the owner of this house was hospitable and friendly . He texted to ask if it would be-any help to us if he stayed at the house to give us a tour . He explained all details of pool and hot tub , he could not have been nicer . Location was perfect within walking distance of 4 very nice restaurants and the beach-boardwalk. There were no surprises the pictures posted truly represent the actual home . Mr. Keller not Higgins 😩

I met Mary Chin and her family when they arrived and knew right away they were great people. I take everything about the house seriously and when I found out that they were happy I was elated. Wonderful people and wonderful guests

Summer fun
Property is a one stop vacation. Close to beach, and restaurants. House has pool and hot tub (even a firepit for a cool evening). 7 adults and two under age 4 toddlers had a great vacation. Will be back!

Anyone who has been a host knows that feeling when you have had a dream guest and Mr. McLaughlin and his family were exactly that.

House has a lot to offer!
Overall the location can not be beat. Close to the boardwalk, beach, inlet bar, resturants, etc...The house itself is large and is set up for large groups. Including washer dryer, grill, and the pool/hot tub combo was really good. The AC was new and kept the house very cool. The house was also clean and would be ideal for large groups who are on the go and out enjoying the surroundings

I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Lospinosa and several family members. It really made my day as they are extremely nice warm people. It is nice to know that such nice folks are enjoying your home.

Great house!
Great house, great location! We had a large group and if we could, we would have stayed longer! The pool heated pretty fast, which was great for the little (and big) ones. Lots of pots and pans, big enough for a large group like ours, worked wonders when cooking. Bathrooms were spotless!!! We will definitely be coming back!

Nice space for a family trip
The house matches the pictures. It was clean and new linens provided at check in. The pool and hot tub was clean and worked. The house had plenty of space for 7 adults , 2 babies and 2 dogs. Great location close to plenty of restaurants and easy walk to the boardwalk. Our family had a great time and would go back again.

Rental has potential
We were the first renters of the season and the house was not ready. Among other things there were screws and nails strewn across the parking and pool areas. The refrigerator leaked, and we were unable to use the stove for the first few days of our forcing us to do more takeout then we planned and in a pinch used the grill in the back yard as a stovetop. The pool filter was not turned on which causing the pool to be dirty by the end of the week. The outlets did not have outlet covers on them upon arrival. While Ronnie and his friend Niko did try to make the stay more comfortable, it was quite intrusive to have them at the rental several times every day. At the beginning of the week Ronnie apologized profusely for the inconveniences, and said he would offer us a refund that we deemed fair, in the end he refused to negotiate any refund at all. One item that was not part of the renovations, but should have been, was that the railing on the stairs leading to the 2nd floor had spindles about 12inches apart making it a hazard for small children, and certainly not up to building code. Hopefully this has been fixed since.

there are always 2 sides to every story. Yes the freezer developed a leak, randomly there would be about a teaspoon or two of water that leaked from the corner of the freezer which was out of my control and was fixed. There were also a few other issues such as a 2 foot section of molding that needed to be painted. What was not taken into consideration and obviously not appreciated was that I had spent over $20,000 on upgrades and new furniture. There was a brand new beautiful patio table and chairs, a brand new grill and a firepit. There was also a brand new 70 inch flatscreen and new beds. This was the first week of the season and so for this group of people it was new and they were the first to use it. The main problem is however that around a week after checking out I received a message that if I did not refund them $3,000 they would leave a negative review. I did not agree to the refund and so of course I did not receive a glowing review. rent for the week was $4,280.49 so I felt the amount was unreasonable did not like the the fact that I was being blackmailed. I received yet another message on the VRBO message site and was told that they expected a counter offer, so this was a negotiating tactic. While I admit there were some minor issues the complaints were exaggerated and I believe it was due mainly to extort money from me. I sent an email and explained that the review process was intended to provide people with accurate and honest information and using the process as leverage to force a host to hand over money was not acceptable. What's most surprising is that this rental took place almost a year ago. sincerely Ronnie Keller

Great Getaway
We had an excellent week at Point Bleasant Beach. The house has a well stocked kitchen that opens up into a very spacious dining and living room area. Plenty of room in all bedrooms to accomodate guests. Walking distance to many excellent restaurants and a very short drive to downtown where there were shops and antique stores. Ronnie was a excellent host he checked in with us mid week to see if we needed anything. There is an impressive dry bar in the master bedroom for beverages to be seperate from other guests if you want. I highly recommend renting this house. Thank you Ronnie!

This was a great place for a family get together. The fire pit in the backyard was perfect for cool autumn evenings. Our host Ronnie was very nice and available whenever we called.

Janet was a wonderful guest. The house was as clean if not cleaner when she checked out. I usually do not have any or little interaction with guests but I spoke with Janet on several occasions due to some minor issues. I found Janet to be a very classy and refined woman. I would be more then happy to have her back. If you are fortunate and have her as a tenant I would suggest you pay a little extra attention to your property being clean. During one of our discussions I learned that she keeps her home immaculate and that a clean house is extremely important to her.

Great Place for a Group to Stay
Friends and I stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. House was plenty big and well equipped. Spent most of our time in the backyard by the fire pit making S'mores and sitting around the pool. Reasonably short walk to the beach and boardwalk. Ronnie was very responsive and helpful through the whole process. Would definitely stay there again.

these people had a personal issue and did not want to stay for the 2 weeks I booked. VRBO would not issue a refund which is their policy. I was asked to issue the refund myself. They were unhappy from day 1 my house is not unsafe just read the other reviews

Great Location Near the Beach!
Loved returning to Point Pleasant Beach to visit friends. House was way too big for just 2 of us, but would be a great location and space for a family get-together. Bedrooms are spacious with plenty of beds. We spent most of our time downstairs in living area. Kitchen is well stocked (maybe even a bit over-stocked); didn't need anything that wasn't already there. A very nice home and location!

My family and I had a wonderful time in Point Pleasant. The weather was perfect and the 5bedroom
house gave everyone their own space. The kids had fun in the pool.. Neighborhood is very nice and it’s a short walk to the beach. There is parking at the beach if you prefer to drive with all your beach chairs and coolers. Ronnie the owner was great. He gets right back to you if you need him for any reason & is happy to make your stay in his home a happy one..
