"Crystal Inn is a budget bargain and I love staying here! It's quiet, convenient and the other guests are polite and helpful. The front desk is always available to provide amenities and suggestions. I had to leave early due to an unexpected travel change and they refunded my last day, no questions asked! I was so impressed. This small, privately owned motel is my go to when I need to get work done but also be close to all that Monmouth County, NJ offers."

Top Sandy Hook Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Highlands cottage across the street from Proving Ground and Twin Lights Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Easy access to sandy hook. Quiet."

Seashore Town - quaint one bedroom apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely little place in the heart of Highlands. Walking distance to many shops and restaurants. I kinda hate to talk it up as it might NOT be available for us the next time :-). Well appointed place. Everything you need minus your own groceries.We will stay here again for sure."

BEACHFRONT 1BR WATERVIEWS WITH DECK PRIVATE BEACH

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I had a wonderful 3 night stay at Ron’s place. It was immaculate and had everything one could need. The extra touches of hand soap, paper towels etc. are greatly appreciated! The bed was very comfortable. The walk down to the beach is beautiful and the deck outside the unit is wonderful for hanging out and enjoying the view. Ron was great and very responsive. We love walking and biking to restaurants and Sandy Hook. We hope to be back!"

Coastal Home With 360 Degree Rooftop Deck ~ Outstanding Views!

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, clean and convenient home. Host was excellent and very responsive. There is private parking and several decks, including the rooftop patio. The location is convenient, and puts you in walking distance of many restaurants, shops and parks. Highly recommend this home for those looking in this area."

Private Room &Bathroom, Quaint Beach Town, Free local beaches, Ferry to NYC

10/10 Excellent

"Grace's home was such a lovely and cozy stay! The room was set up well with a private bathroom, both were clean. We appreciated the neighborhood, since there were many restaurants and several beaches were a quick drive away. It was a great way to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. We found that Grace and her partner were so friendly and engaged when we spoke to them. She also made the extra effort to lay out breakfast for us every morning, which we appreciated and enjoyed. We would happily stay at Grace's beautiful home again!"

NJ Paradise Tiki Hut, 5 mins to NYC Ferry and beaches!

8/10 Good

"The host was very nice and accommodating, from the pictures it looked like there would be more “toys” or things for kids but there was just a box of mixed up board games. The house was in a nice location in regards to the beach and the little down town area was walkable distance. The only thing I noticed was in the master bedroom the comforter looked a little dirty/ stained. I used to clean airbnbs so that could be why I noticed it. Overall it was a nice stay. The tiki hut could use a little TLC as it was not like the pictures. Each room has a window unit as well which I didn’t notice in the listing but was not a big deal."

Little Haven (B) — Bungalows, Private Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for a week while in town for a dance competition, and it was exactly what we needed. The property was just as described in the listing—clean, comfortable, and well maintained. We were especially impressed with how little sand made its way into the house, even with a private beach right out the back door.The host was wonderful and provided extras like boogie boards and kayaks, which made spending time on the bay even more enjoyable. Those thoughtful touches really added to our stay.The only minor downside was parking. It can take a few laps around the block to find a spot, especially during busy times. Once we were parked, though, everything else was smooth and hassle-free.Overall, this home was the perfect base for our week-long adventure. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable place with easy beach access and a responsive, thoughtful host."

Charming 3-bedroom waterfront house with WiFi and AC in charming Highlands

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town for a long weekend wedding and found this rental to be in the perfect location. Several restaurants/bars within walking distance, beautiful views, super friendly town/people. The house was fully stocked with the essentials and very clean."
