Our oceanfront beach house is on a big, private lot in south Rockaway Beach located right in front of the Twin Rocks. The house consists of 2 units with separate entrances that are connected by a common porch. Each unit has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen, dining and living rooms with amazing views of the ocean. The 5th bedroom, 3rd bath and laundry room are located downstairs and accessed through a separate outside entrance.
Sliding glass doors in the dining rooms lead to a large deck in the back of the house with a hot tub and panoramic views of the ocean and Twin Rocks. A private path leads through our yard directly to the beach right in front of the Rocks.
The house even has its own retro arcade downstairs in the garage to entertain the kids (and adults) when the weather is bad. The game selection will vary and may include foosball, ping pong and arcade games such as Asteroids Deluxe and Donkey Kong multicade (60 classic games in 1). All games are set for free play, so no need to bring quarters. Please note that some arcade games may not be operational during your stay, these are older games that sometimes break and we can't always fix them right away.
The 5 bedrooms each have queen beds and there is one futon in the downstairs 5th bedroom, also two fold out thin foam mattresses for extra sleeping (located in two of the bedroom closets (10 people in Queen beds plus 4 people on foam mattress/sofas for 14 total).
PLEASE NOTE: The sofas are not sleeper sofas and we no longer have futons in the living rooms.
With 3 separate spaces (North Unit, South Unit and downstairs 5th bed/bath), this is a great place for an extended family gathering or a multi-family getaway or for any large group that wants to vacation together, but still have some private space.
There is enough parking in the front for about 6 cars.
