Beachfront Oasis Jones Beach-views, escape, relax.

KellyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Beautiful location with outstanding ocean views. The place was comfortable and had lots of indoor plants, which I liked. Communication with the host was speedy and friendly. A thing to note is that the bed is quite firm, which took a bit of getting used to. There were also lots of people walking their dogs behind the property all day (I’m assuming the nearby beach is dog friendly - there are 2 beach entry walkways in view from the balcony), so there was more barking and people calling for their dogs than we had anticipated! That being said, we had a great stay and would recommend!
