Beachfront home rentals with a pool

SEA-renity on the beach!
I was looking for a place that comfortably fit my kids, sister, and myself that was on the beach - and also close by to where we had other family members staying. This place fit the bill - and was also adorable, clean, and so easy to access. Giuseppe was easy to get in touch with when I had many questions and I really appreciate his quick personalized responses! I would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for a quiet getaway to the beach.

Luxury House private pool oceanview 4 King Bd
Absolutely beautiful place. Every bedroom beautifully Decorated and Beds Incredible. Clean comfortable and great location Kelly

Condo w/parking/pool one block to beach/boardwalk
Amazing location just a block from the beach and boardwalk. Cathleen was very proactive and responsive before and during our stay. The house was clean, well organized, and super easy to follow instructions. I would recommend this location to anyone!

Wilde Rose By The Bay - Salt water Inground pool
This is a lovely home in a peaceful and safe neighborhood, perfect for families. We would stay again! It really is just steps to the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and supplies to prepare meals. Everything was in working condition. The pool is beautiful! I loved the lights at night. The entire pool area is gated and locked, good to know for little ones. The shower had great water pressure. The outdoor shower has hot water too! The TV was very easy to use and had many options. Of note, the entire upstairs could accommodate a second family with a mini fridge, half bathroom, two beds, separate entrance, sofa/tv/table/patio - the photos really don’t do this home justice. I was very impressed when I walked inside. My kids LOVED the adorable spiral staircase to get upstairs! We had no problems with it, but it would be hard to keep little climbers off of it. The master bedroom is downstairs, something to consider with littles that wake up in the night and need to get down.

YEAR ROUND Beachfront Pool Paradise Cape May Beach
We had the pleasure of staying here for a few nights over Spring Break and really enjoyed the house. The house was exactly as described and we loved the location on the bay. The pool was amazing and our kids loved being able to swim at the shore in April. We also loved the game room with ping pong and mini golf. Hong was an amazing host and quick to respond to our questions. Would definitely come back again in the future!

Oceanfront penthouse condo with pool and views
This place is an absolute gem if you are traveling with children! Not only was the condo fully stocked for cooking/cleaning, but they also provide a storage unit downstairs to keep all beach toys and anything that may have collected sand! We were very impressed by Dan’s communication (prior to arrival and during our stay). The condo is as described, but better, considering there’s an additional amenity (a rooftop) that allows you to catch a sunrise or sunset with unobstructed views! We loved the close proximity to Sunrise Park, yet nice distance from the noise of the boardwalk. We had a lovely stay, and we would absolutely recommend!

Ocean Front, Large Deck, Pool, Elevator, Linens
We stayed at Jen's beautiful condo for the holidays. This is a stunning condo and location. We loved it so much, we extended our stay and Jen was great about that and a flexible checkout. Enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious deck enjoying magnificent sunrises. You'll have everything needed to prepare meals. I have to note how exceptionally clean the unit is. Very professionally run by Jen. Thank you for hosting us.

Diamond Beach 3 Bedroom & 2.5 Bath-Steps to Beach
We loved the location - right next to beach, quiet walk to Nature preserve. I would echo that the spiral staircase needs to be factored in to your stay - my petite 91 year old aunt did better than my 65 year old big footed brother. Games, puzzles, laundry and pool were an added bonus as were the two porches. All in all a fabulous stay.

Bethany Beach 116 5th St Oceanblock
We were a group of 10 and spent Thanksgiving week with our kids and grandkids at Paul's place. The house was perfect with plenty of space, nice furnishings and comfortable beds. It was walkable to the beach, boardwalk and restaurants. The weather cooperated and we spent time walking, sitting and playing football on the beach. The kitchen was so well equipped with everything we needed to prepare Thanksgiving dinner. We appreciated the perfect place for our family to gather for Thanksgiving! Thanks Paul

Shore to Please-11 Beds-Beach View
wonderful place by the bay to spend Christmas with the family! lots of bedrooms as well as a bunkbed room made it really convenient and nice

2 houses from Bay with hot tub!
We felt right at home. Very comfortable couch, beds and linen. We enjoyed the hot tub, beautiful ocean views from the top deck, and hanging out in the living room. Everything was as expected based on the descriptions and instructions

The Coral Cottage steps from the Delaware Bay!
The aptly named Coral Cottage is a lovely, charming getaway suitable for families of any size - kids or canines. Our three small pups enjoyed the roomy kitchen, large backyard and quick walk to the beach. The adults loved the comfy beds, outdoor grill and fire pit, and the full size washer and dryer which turned out to be an unexpected convenience. It is a very peaceful and quiet stay just a few minutes from various attractions. Our host, Liz, was great at communicating and setting expectations with plenty of tips on dining and entertainment options. We had such a pleasant time and look forward to doing it again.

Red Point Lighthouse
Attention to detail both architecture and a fully equipped kitchen with spices etc Visually unmatched sunrise to sunset

Little Beach House pet friendly 1 block to beach
We had an excellent stay in Cape May with our pup. The beach house is private and the surrounding is peaceful. We love watching the sunset every day. Lots to do and see around Cape May. Don’t forget to visit both wineries: Cape May Winery and Willow Brook Winery. Great for a nice long lunch with a glass of wine.

3 bedroom Condo close to the beach and bay!
i was an absolutely wonderful stay and i would absolutely book there again.. the place was beautiful and clean it was just a great stay

Windblown 3 - Eco-Friendly Waterfront Apartment
Beautiful location, near enough for easy access to many activities but removed enough from the hustle and bustle to make it relaxing. We had a wonderful time watching sunsets from the back porch after days of exploring. Would definitely recommend!

Deborah's Beach House
Deborah's place is so peaceful and quiet. You are literally ON THE BAY. Every window has a view. I spent my time walking and staring at the water. With the sliding doors open, you can hear the waves. HEAVEN. Important to note: You are on a beach with only several houses — adjacent to a coastal preserve. It's a private beach. This is not your typical beach town location. This is exactly why it's so delightful and perfect. The house was super clean, beds were comfy, kitchen was well-stocked. I almost don't want anyone to know how great it is. Ha! Thanks for sharing your home Deborah!!!

Captain Jack's Oceanfront Indian Harbor Villa
This was our 2nd year staying here. It was another fantastic stay. It's so nice being so close to the beach to see the sunrise every morning and then also go out at night under the stars. Katie is so nice and accommodating. We can't wait to stay again next year.

Mint Cottage-Outdoor Entertaining. 2x King Beds
Our family of four just had our first stay near Cape May, and Megan's cottage exceeded all our expectations! The photos don’t quite capture the charm and elegance of the space; everything from the furnishings to the thoughtful details and amenities feels like a 5-Star experience. The outdoor area is a true highlight! The fenced-in yard was a fantastic perk for our fur dogs, who were warmly welcomed by Megan with a “buddy stick” holder and extra water bowls, a thoughtful touch! We slept like royalty on the comfortable memory foam mattresses, and the sheets and towels were luxuriously soft. I also appreciated the range of toiletries available when my son realized he forgot his toothbrush, there were plenty to choose from! The Smart TVs were a delightful addition for cozy movie nights after a day at the beach, along with some competitive games of Corn Hole and Jenga. The Solo fire pit and café lights created a magical atmosphere at Megan’s beach cottage and backyard oasis; we will return!

Waterfront Sunset View Family Beach House
Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful views, and the feeling that you are in your own home. Beds and furniture were all very comfortable with ample space to relax inside and out. There are enough beach supplies for everyone and the kayaks were a bonus. It was one of those stays that you wanted to extend and not leave. We would definitely love to go back.

Water Views! Private Beach - Luxury Beach Home
One of the best airbnb's we've ever stayed in! Our group consisted of two sisters, their kids (13, 10 and 1.5) and a grandma and the place was absolutely perfect for all our needs. The beautiful rooms and deck are exactly as pictured, the place was exceptionally clean and the decor struck the perfect balance of beauty, function and comfort for all involved. The staircase was solid and carpeted so Grandma had no problems on it and the owners were kind enough to supply a baby gate so the toddler stayed in the room downstairs with her mom and we never needed to worry about her. All the beds have comfortable, new memory foam mattresses and there were extra pillows, blankets and towels at every turn. The whole place even smelled nice with a subtle air freshener. The owners were extremely accessible and thoughtful and reached out with restaurant recommendations in the weeks leading up to our stay. We loved the place and hope to come back next year!

Birch Beach House *With Linens*
Awesome house right by the beach and close to downtown Cape May for all the shopping, restaurants, and things to do!

Bayside Bungalow - Steps to the beach!
We had an amazing weekend at Brandon’s beach cottage. It exceeded our expectations! The decor and layout were very nice and comfortable. Loved being able to walk down the street to the bay for some beautiful sunsets. We can’t wait to book another trip. Thank you for your hospitality.

Little Moondoggies Digs Coastal Bungalow
This place is truly one-of-a-kind, and you can feel the love and care the owner pours into every detail. Any concerns from past reviews have been thoughtfully addressed, so I wouldn’t recommend sorting by the negative comments—they’re outdated. The only policy that remains is bringing your own sheets/towels/paper products, but that’s just part of how the owner keeps the cost so affordable. She’s incredibly kind, and we’re so glad we decided to stay here! Plus, it’s right across from the beach, which is a huge bonus!
