Cozy 1-BR APT Near NYC - Sleeps 3!
Happy with our stay! The apartment was small but sufficed for 2 people. Shower pressure was abysmal but otherwise everything functioned as intended and the host's communication was great.

Private guest unit on beachfront house
Rrezarta was amazing she is warm and welcoming and very helpful. The apartment has all the stuff you need for a family and beach stuff too!

Spacious Living with City Views!
An amazing place with a beautiful skyline looking into the city. Getting into the city was very easy (NJ transit or Port Imperial ferry) which took 15 minutes max. The neighborhood is very safe and we felt comfortable walking in the park across the street. There are good food options within walking distance. There is a huge park 1.5 miles away with pickleball and tennis courts. Highly recommend staying here!

Stylish Apartment with NYC View
We stayed as a family of 4 in this homey apartment for 6 nights and just loved this place!

Best NYC View! - Cozy 2 bed with Balcony & Patio
What a gem this place is for exploring the city while staying in a quieter location. Views were fantastic. Modern, clean interior just like in the photos. Check-in was easy and communication great. Will recommend to friends.

Cozy apartment near all/Ideal for longer stays.
A home away from home! I will be back again. Everything was super nice and clean.

Top Fl 2B flat with $M NYC view
Place was wonderful, it’s up on the 3rd floor so pack light as it a tight space to get up too. The views are amazing, very clean and nice place and Valerie is super responsive and accommodating!!!

Fantastic Views of NYC + Statue of Liberty - 2 BR
The apartment was very clean and practically brand new. The apartment is nicely appointed, very comfortable and lacks for nothing. The location is great with very easy access to the city via public transportation: light rail metro to PATH to MTA takes ~30 minutes to World Trade Center. The view of the city is fantastic day and night. There is a tasty breakfast and lunch place with nice portions right outside the first floor entrance making your daily departure too convenient. Enjoy a 20-minute walk to Liberty State Park to see Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Largest planetarium in the western hemisphere right across the street. One could spend hours merely watching all the activity in the Upper Bay from your perch high up in New Jersey. This apartment is a great way to unlock NYC without the downsides of being right in the city, and the views of the city from the apartment are unrivaled for the price. The property owner is super responsive and very helpful.

Beach Front Escape - Rockaway Beach NYC
Can’t say enough great things about John’s property! Our family (2 adults and 2 teens) loved our long weekend away. The location is amazing, right across the street from the beach entrance and walkable to a couple eateries, supermarket and subway. It was spotless, spacious and just as shown in the pictures. Stocked with the basics, nice kitchen with everything we needed. We had a couple small questions and couldn’t get over how responsive and nice John and Ashley are. Also super easy check out, which was extra nice. We are already looking forward to booking a trip to come back!

LargePrivate guest suite in bayfront house
Alexa's place couldn't have been better! It's so pretty and comfortable inside and the deck is beautiful with lots of plants and sunlight. It has everything you could possibly need in terms of amenities: every kitchen item in the world, tons of cozy linens/towels, a great book collection, and fun board games! Alexa gave us total privacy, but was also available for anything we needed. It's a really well done place run by really nice people.

Beautiful 3 bedroom Private Home 15 mins from NY
Wonderful stay at Joseph’s place. We felt at home. Joseph is very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to stay again there :)

Hudson Luxe 79
I got married this past Sunday at Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht club this past Sunday and we booked both of his units. I have a big family and we also booked another place 6 minutes away to accommodate everyone. He was so helpful and worked with me on answering all my questions and making the bookings very easy. When I say we were so impressed with his space, that’s an understatement. They even had a basket of goodies with a card and wine. I got videos and was supposed to come back to take photos but was so busy with my wedding preparations that I didn’t get to return back to do it. It’s definitely home away from home for my family while they were there! You can tell they take pride in sharing their home and their spaces with their guests! Would definitely highly recommend his beautiful place! Thank again John!!! We appreciate you and your wife for sharing your space with us!!

The BeachHouse in NYC Staten Island
We had a great stay! The home was exactly as described, clean, spacious, organized, and beautifully maintained. The hosts were very responsive and made the check-in process smooth and easy. The location was convenient with great restaurants nearby and plenty of amenities. Overall, a very comfortable and enjoyable experience!

Comfortable Entire House for rent. 4 bed, 3 baths
Mr. Robert is an amazing host. Polite, responsive, friendly and flexible. The house is as described (actually bigger than we expected), comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend Mr. Robert’s listing and stay there again! Thank you so much, Mr. Robert!!!!

Lovely private home in a serene neighborhood
We loved our stay! It’s in a great location- very walkable to nearby shops, and about a 20 minute drive to Met Life. The place was absolutely spotless and impeccably cleaned when we arrived. Highly recommended!

Private bed with views of NYC
I had such a relaxing and joyful night at Estefany's place! The location is incredibly convenient—just steps from the bus stop, and as soon as you get off, you’re greeted by the most breathtaking view. It immediately lifts your spirits, and the best part is, you can enjoy that same view right from inside the room! This is truly a top-notch stay. Estefany and Athiaperez are both so kind and welcoming, and I already miss Rio! 🐶 I highly recommend this place if you’re visiting New York. Also, if you’re into morning runs, this is a perfect spot. Waking up and running with such a stunning view is an experience you shouldn’t miss. I’d absolutely love to stay here again the next time I’m in New York. The place is clean, comfortable, and very safe. Highly, highly recommended! ✨✨

Fantastic stay for 6 – Heart of Hoboken!
The apartment was exactly as described and the area was so leafy and peaceful. AJ gave really clear instructions how to access and it was really easy to find. The beds were so comfortable and the whole place was really clean with every amenity. There was even a kettle, which was great for tea lovers 😊

New Beautiful Condo In Bayonne near NYC
Very well decorated and clean. Would stay again.

City style apartment, Beach Passes Included
If you are looking to explore New York for a few days or longer then Jay's place is great. Just a few minutes from the Long Beach station, Penn or Grand Central are about an hour away on a direct LIRR train. You will save $$$ by staying here compared with Manhattan. Long Beach is a safe, full of interesting shops. The 10km boardwalk is just a few minutes away. The apartment of character in a listed building full of charm. Loved the well stocked kitchen and would not hesitate to come back again.

Historical Brownstone Penthouse Condo
Everything as described. Good neighborhood. Very easy and fast to go with busses through the Lincoln tunnel to NYC (worked great even while a strike when we were there). And it's really perfect to look at the Empire State Building in the evening. What you also should know: There are 2 steep stairs to the 3rd floor, so this is not a good choice for elderly people with big bags. For all others great!

NYC Riverfront Elegant White Marble Sanctuary
Gorgeous location, great transport right on the doorstep and a lovely spot to take in the NYC skyline. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you
