Great location near the beach and super friendly, accommodating, and very responsive host. House is spacious and clean. We enjoy staying here because it’s a great location for us as we participate in the sand soccer tournament.
It was a lovely week! The home was lovely and bright and clean. Plenty of room for three generations. Anthony was very attentive when we needed him, which was not very often.Location, location, location!Having the beach passes and easy access to Jenkinson‘s beach was terrific. Great time and would definitely rent again.
Anthony is a great host who was very accommodating. House was clean when we arrived, along with fresh clean towels and sheets, and the check in/out process was super simple. The house being close to the boardwalk & beach is also very convenient. Overall, an amazing house for anybody looking to stay in this area.
My family and I wanted a home right near the beach and boardwalk so that we wouldn't have to worry about daily beach parking. Anthony's home is absolutely gorgeous and right beside the boardwalk! I really appreciate Anthony's quick responses, friendliness and flexibility. I also greatly appreciate the private off-street parking. We will definitely be booking another stay in the future!!!
We enjoyed our stay. Property was walking distance to the beach (once you get the key to the community gate.) Parking was challenging for a 2nd car. Window unit air conditioners worked well, but were a bit loud. Ample space for our six people with the two bathrooms, three bedrooms, and living areas.

Jonas, there should have only been 1 car parked off-street in the spot. This is written in the home description and detailed in the check in email, along with a PDF diagram, and directions on how to park on the street with the 5 provided parking passes. I apologize for any confusion about the off-street parking.
The house was clean and more beautiful as the pictures. It is very comfortable. We were 6 adults and 1 child and we had plenty of room. The owner was fantastic to work with. He responded to questions quickly and was a great help.
My wife and I enjoyed spending our 40th wedding Anniversary with our family in this lovely home!!!
Thank you Anthony for sharing your home with us!!!!
Another great stay at Anthony's home in Point Pleasant Beach!
This is our 2nd time renting Anthony's home, and it again exceeded our expectations! The house was clean, and check-in/check-out were a breeze. Anthony is an extremely responsive and friendly host, and his communication is excellent leading up to the trip, and throughout the trip! The house itself is roomy, extremely well-stocked with all amenities a family/group would need, comes with plenty of beach badges and parking passes, along with some awesome beach chairs and an umbrella.
The location of the home cannot be beat. There's a private pathway to the beach (with keys to open the gate included), and only a 2 minute walk, which makes it easy to hang out on the beach, and head back to the house for lunch/break/etc., and back on the beach in minutes. It is also within 2 blocks of an awesome donut shop, a bagel deli, a great juice/coffee shop, and a great homemade ice cream store. It's also right down the street from Jenkinsons.
We will definitely continue to rent Anthony's home during future trips to the Jersey Shore!
I can not say enough good things about Anthony's home. I had the pleasure of renting his home for the month of July 2022 with a group of friends, we have been renting summer homes for the past 6 years and when I say this was the easiest best house we have stayed in I truly mean it. Anthony made check in and check out super simple, and continued to check in throughout our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. I can not recommend this property enough and we will surely be back! Thank you, Anthony!
This house was comfortable, clean, and spacious with all the amenities of home. Anthony is a wonderful host! We enjoyed the convenience of close proximity to the beach and boardwalk activities with our young children. Would absolutely stay again!
We loved the pictures of the house, but the reality was even better. It is much more spacious than the pictures show.
It was spotless, had everything we needed and there was enough room for my all 3 of us to hang out in different spaces and never feel crowded.
The location cant be beat. The house is adorable. Everything worked . The electronic lock was super convenient and the beach badges were great.
Pro-tip: buy a bag of ice. We kept forgetting and had to keep cracking the one tray over and over.
Anthony was super responsive before and during our stay.
We will book with Anthony again.
Clean with lots of sleep space. Great kitchen with plenty of seating area. A block walk to everything. Owner communicated well. Would definitely stay again.
We loved our stay at this property. We were not expecting the Ritz-Carlton, however there were a few blemishes throughout the property that could be addressed in the future. Not that they were an issue worth noting.
This is the second year we stayed at this property and hopefully we will stay here again. The house is immaculate and the owners are an absolute pleasure to deal with. The off street parking space is a major convenience. Well done Anthony !!!!

Thank you Bill! Hope to have you again next year!!
Our stay was fantastic. Property owner was very responsive. House was clean, organized and had plenty of kitchen gadgets that made cooking easy. My young boys appreciated the proximity to the beach and boardwalk. The neighbors were very friendly. We loved this property
It was an absolute pleasure from start to ending. We have been staying in Point Pleasant for the last four years and this was our greatest experience so far. When my grandkids first came through the door they were amazed at the spaciousness and cleanliness of the property. It was everything the advertisement purported to be and more. The owner Anthony obviously takes great pleasure in providing his guests with a memorable experience. Thank you Anthony. Job well done !!! Highly recommended.....

Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m glad the whole family enjoyed!! Hope to host you again next year.
We had a great time in Point Pleasant, Anthony was the nicest host by far, he goes above and beyond to make sure you stay is warm snd welcoming. Great location also.
Prime location with steps away from boardwalk and all the fun! The house is well maintained and the kitchen is well stocked with spices and cooking utensils. The beds were comfortable, the space was homey and we truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning back sometime soon!

About the host
Hosted by Anthony Mahon
We’re a teacher and a flight attendant who are lucky enough to call this house 'home' for eight months of the year. When we’re not at the Shore, we’re using our flight benefits to explore the world with 28 countries and counting! Having been guests in so many corners of the globe, we know exactly what makes a stay feel special. We love hosting because it allows us to pay forward the incredible hospitality we’ve experienced on our own adventures.
Why they chose this property
Our neighborhood is the ultimate "park and forget it" spot in Point Pleasant Beach. You are just five houses from the sand with a private entrance to the boardwalk, putting you seconds from the beach and minutes from the Jenkinson's Aquarium, arcades, rides, and mini-golf. From delicious restaurants and nightlife to the peaceful Manasquan Inlet and fishing charters, everything is within a 5-minute stroll. You truly won’t need your car keys until it’s time to head home.
What makes this property unique
What makes our home truly unique is the soul and eclectic style we’ve poured into it as our primary residence. We have carefully curated the space with treasures from our travels, including two massive, custom-made chandeliers from Istanbul and one-of-a-kind hand-painted art from Georgia and Malaysia. With soaring vaulted ceilings and the presence of a piano, the home has an inspired, airy character that you won't find in a standard rental. This is a place we love and maintain with care, designed to be a special and welcoming retreat rather than just a place to stay.
