We had a great time at the Brogan Cottage in Seaside! The owners were great to work with, the location was perfect and we made family memories that will last a lifetime!
The house and property had everything and more that we could've wanted and needed for our family getaway. The kids absolutely loved the toys, games, beach items and sports great to enjoy :)The trampoline was a favorite in the privacy of the beautiful backyard. Loved the house, the clean spaces, everything planned and the outdoor shower. The perfect place to stay with your family!
My family and I enjoyed our first mini vacation at the cottage. It was filled with supplies we can use and very kid friendly. It had so many activities for the little ones and it was very beautiful at night with all the lighting. Really enjoyed it and we will be returning very soon!
I recently rented this home and it was absolutely lovely! It was super clean and incredibly welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The place had everything we needed to make our stay perfect, from a fully equipped kitchen to cozy bedrooms and a charming living area. The attention to detail was impressive, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Thankyou so much for your kind words. It means the world to us!
We absolutely loved this cottage. Lovely upstairs and downstairs. It was great to come off the beach and relax in the nice backyard.
The owners thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. The beach is about 4 blocks away, but this neighborhood is very quiet.
We would love to rental here again!
We had such a wonderful time! The house was very cute and had everything we could want. The fenced backyard was great for our beloved dog. Hot water outside shower was a hit too.
We had an amazing time at the Shore. Our host, Nina, was incredibly responsive throughout the process (both before and during our stay). The home has everything anyone would need for an incredible time (well stocked kitchen, comfortable living areas,extra towels/blankets, beach chairs, noodles, toys for the dog, outdoor shower....I can't name everything this place has to offer. Our dog was a welcome guest (beds, dishes, toys) and he felt as comfortable as if he were in our own home. In short, we had a great time and would definitely book here again.
The cottage was perfect for our stay with 4 kids (10 & 12) & 4 adults! The yard was amazing and allowed us all the chance to truly unplug! The house/shed was beyond stocked & organized and had all that we needed & more!
The hosts were extremely responsive & accommodating. If we return for the Seaside Heights Sand Soccer Tournament next year, we hope to return to this property!

Thankyou so much for appreciating the little things & your kind words mean allot to us. You left the place in great shape. We hope to see you and family again!
The cozy cottage is as delightful as described. It was great for our two families to have separate space and together time. We loved parking our cars and walking to the beach.This cottage had everything to maximize our time on vacation. Nina was a pleasure to communicate with.

Thankyou so much! We look forward to having you again!
Nina's place was stocked with everything you need and close to all Seaside has to offer. If like us, you have a toddler who won't shower, a quick stop at Ben Franklin in Ortley Beach to grab a small kiddie pool is in order. It fits right in the outdoor shower, which was lovely.
We really enjoyed our stay and the house was perfect. Anything and everything was provided, I seriously overpacked because whatever was needed was already there for us! Nina was always quick to reply when I had a question throughout the whole process. Thank you for everything!

Thanks Beth! Your kind words are really appreciated. Have a great summer
We were in the area for a small family reunion and the house fit all our needs and them some. Ninas communication is the best we have ever had from a host, from the greatly detailed instructions for everything you can imagine to providing a fun and interesting backstory to her and her husband! Being just a few blocks from the beach was very nice but what really drew us to the property was the totally fenced in back yard for our dog to run and play and it didn't disappoint! Of all the places we have stayed before, this was by far and away the most dog friendly! Any time we come back to the area, we will definitely look to stay here again
The Brogan Cottage was well kept and clean. It provided all the space we needed. Nina was easily contacted. She provided a lot of incidentals most rentals don’t. Sheets and towels were provided. All in all it was a great experience.
We have a large family with kids from 2 yrs all the way to 19 yrs old. This property accommodated every single need we could possibly think of. The owner went above and beyond preparing this property for us. The home is just a few blocks straight shot to the boardwalk. Overall this property exceded every expectation we had, we will be back every time we go to New Jersey!! Nina is a great host and communication was great! Highly recommended!!

Thank you so much for those nice comments. It’s really appreciated
From start to finish, the Brogan Cottage fit every need we had for our stay at the Jersey shore. First appearance... what a cute place, very well kept, immaculate inside and out.The dogs were so excited to have a fenced yard. And we had access to everything that we could possibly need. Seaside Heights was a good location too. Our hostess rates a 10! She was so accomodating and a pleasure to deal with. We hope to return next year!

Jackie, Thankyou so much, it means the world to us to share with people like you. Best to you and your family
I must say as a mom choosing the right place to stay is sometimes stressful. But with this property I didn’t have that stress at all. Nina and Nick has put so much detail into this home it was truly a wonderful experience. They had everything and I mean everything that we needed and even things I didn’t think of was there for us to use. The home is so cute and we loved the decor and absolutely loved the backyard!!! Definitely would recommend this home to anyone proudly. We will be back next year for sure.
We could not have chosen a better property. My husband and I traveled with our 3 children, ages 20, 17, and 13 along with 3 of their friends. Since it is two units in one house, we were able to put the younger 4 upstairs where they could be their messier selves. It was so nice to be together but separate.
The house has everything you could want. The hosts have everything so organized. We had it all at our disposal between basketball and the trampoline, bikes, and beach chairs. It is decorated whimsically and nicely with a nice mix of modern and antique.
The beds were comfortable and the rooms were cool. I could use the kitchen easily to feed the 8 of us and the two tables outside helped keep the mess outside.
I would ABSOLUTELY rent this property again.
We LOVED it.
My siblings and I come to the Jersey Shore every October to celebrate and our stay at Brogan Cottage was amazing!
The neighborhood was so nice and quiet, and the back yard so lovely for gathering around a fire to laugh and talk. The cottage is absolutely adorable, so cute and exactly as pictured.
Nina made it so easy to check in and check out, we definitely want to stay again!
Nina communicated so well from booking to check out. This made using VRBO for the first time a breeze. The property was exactly as described and the amenities along with the attention to detail was perfect. Not your average shore house rental they have so many things for the guests to use for the beach and house along with the things you forgot to pack tucked away in a cabinet or bathroom. The house was clean and the linens were perfect. I could go on for hours about this host. I will rent this property again without question.
Really fun and clean house. Very considerate. Had s’mores. Unique style, private, outside showers, trampoline, swing, fuz ball. Awesome place. Walking distance to the board walk. Only 7-12 minutes.
We loved the backyard with the trampoline, basketball hoop & bbq. Enjoyed all the extras that came with the house. Enough space to comfortably sleep 5-6 guests. Just a short walk to the beach/boardwalk was also a plus. Host was very helpful!
The owners of this lovely cottage were very accommodating and helpful. Plenty of things to do inside and out from the board games, Smart TV’s, Basketball Hoop, Trampoline, Bon Fire, BBQ, Air Hockey/ Foosball Tables, and perfect Air Conditioning. This place is a short walk from the shore and has all the beach things you need! Thanks again, highly recommended!! Would love to stay again.

About the host
Hosted by nina Behan Licciardi
We have two boys, a dog and cat and it has been a dream of ours to own by the beach. I am from County Wicklow in Ireland and my husband has Italian-Irish background. We live in Bayridge, Brooklyn .We fell in love with this property the moment we found it. It is not your typical beach house and gives off a sense of nostalgia. It is furnished with local antiques that we collected.
Why they chose this property
It reminds us of simpler times. It has unique architecture and is historical of the 1950's Sears Home. It survived Sandy. It has many original details like the hardwood floors and fireplace. The garden is heaven for us because the kids play all day just as we did.
What makes this property unique
You get two separate spaces for the price of one. You can invite friends and family to stay
