5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, sleeps 12. Living-level hot tub overlooking the dunes
Long Beach Island Oceanfront. Stunning ocean views with four levels of decks (2100 sqft) including a roof deck; 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, 2 zone central air conditioning, an oceanfront hot tub (on the main living level), and plenty of off-street parking (4 cars without double-parking). Three of the four upstairs bedrooms have en suite bathrooms. There is a hall bath for the bunk bedroom. The downstairs bedroom has an en suite bathroom. An outdoor shower off the dune deck provides a place to shower outdoors. All bedrooms have ceiling fans and flat screen TVs. There is a large flat screen TV in the living room.
Beach people will love being just steps from the beach and water. Don't like the beach? The decks provide both sun and shade with cooling breezes from the ocean without getting sand between your toes. The roof deck and upper deck provide plenty of room to enjoy the sun and the view. The lower deck off the living area has shaded and sunny areas. The large dune deck at ground level is shady all day long.
Inside, the large open living area provides both room for a large crowd to gather together as well as providing for separate areas to converse, play games, or read. The dining area provides plenty of room to gather for meals and you can still be part of the fun even while you are cooking in the open kitchen. A gas grill is available for use on the ground level.
The house is just steps from Pinky Shrimp's seafood market/restaurant and Liberta Pizzeria Americano. We are located about 1/2 mile north of the large Acme grocery store and Pinziminio's Italian restaurant. Bike and surfboard rentals are within easy walking distance as is the nearest ice cream shop. The rental price includes the use of 10 beach badges and wireless internet.

About the owner: Marlene and Chris grew up in South Jersey, went to Virginia Tech for our undergraduate degrees and received our masters degrees in Philadelphia. We have been renting out various properties since 1982 and renting properties at the Jersey Shore since 2003. We presently live in Moorestown, NJ.
Why this house?
We love this house because: 1) there is plenty of space in the large open living area to both be together and to have some separate space while still being close to the group activities, 2) the views! ... both while inside the house and outside on the decks, 3) the privacy and convenience of en suite bathrooms, 4) the setting is so peaceful ... we do our best sleeping and napping while staying at this house 5) the abundance of outdoor spaces ... both covered and open 6) the great views from the deck table, 7) eating meals on the deck table, 8) the short ride to the great, Acme supermarket, 9) watching for shooting stars from the hot tub
The Unique Benefits at this House:
All of the living spaces are designed so that it is comfortable and easy to gather as a large group (for instance for meals or happy hour), or to be in the same area but engaging in separate activities (for instance, playing games at the game table, reading in chairs by the window, and watching TV in the living room).

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of room, geat views and the closeness to the beach was a beach game changer with the children.

We had a wonderful family vacation week with 9 people at this lovely, cozy and inviting home. It offers incredible views from 3 different decks-one on the roof that allows watching the sun set over the bay. The attractive and comfortable furniture, fully stocked kitchen, and attractive artwork was more reminiscent of a cozy welcoming to someone's home than a rental.
The owner was very responsive and pleasant to interact with.
The rental exceeded our already high expectations.

This was a terrific place to stay! We had family from all over (including elderly parents) and we could not be more pleased with the house and location. There were common areas where we could hang out together, but everyone also had their own space. It was key that all of the bedrooms had their own bathroom. There were plenty of beach chairs to take to the beach. The rooftop deck was great to watch the sunset every night. Chris was easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions before the trip. My family is still raving about our stay there!

Nine of family members stayed for a few days. Everyone enjoyed the stay. The views are great. First level has complete view of ocean from anywhere and 2 bed rooms in 2nd floor have gorgeous views of ocean. All bathrooms are big and clean.

This was a great place and the stay was a seamless easy experience. Highly recommend this location and owner.

Chris's property is beautiful and well kept! We thoroughly enjoyed our getaway with family and friends. The beach is easy to access and the property comes with almost everything you need. Bringing our own sheets and towels was a bit of a pain but well worth the effort! Chris was responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend! And don't forget to wake up for the sunrise - the views from the decks are unbelievable.
OWNER RESPONSE: I am very glad to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed your getaway at our home. It is a great place to spend a long weekend or a week. We understand that bringing sheets and towels can be difficult for some, so we work closely with two linen services that can provide these as well as other items for rent (such as baby strollers, cribs, high chairs, and the like). Many guests prefer to bring their own. Sunrises over the ocean and sunsets over the bay are favorites of ours too. We are sincerely happy that you and your group enjoyed your stay. That is always our goal.

114 Surf Ave. was the perfect beach house for our family vacation. We had 6 adults and 3 children under 5 and we couldn't have asked for a better place. There was more than enough room for everyone and more amenities than we required. The 3 decks facing the ocean added to all the space and was a great place to have lunch and dinners or just hang around anytime day and night. It was a pleasure not having to fill the car up for a day at the beach with the ocean just being steps away. I wish there was a way of giving more stars because 5 stars doesn't seem to be enough! Thanks Chris for making our family vacation stress free!

We have been coming to LBI for decades and rented many houses.
114 E Surf Ave is the BEST!
Beautifully located on the beach, comfortable rooms, long dining room table, three porches and a roof that can hold everyone to see the sunsets.
All this included with a friendly, responsive owner who supplies all the extras..badges, umbrellas and chairs. An extraordinary vacation.
Stayed July, 2022
LBI is perfect no matter what but our stay was made even more exceptional staying at this house. Spacious and well appointed. Owner was easy to communicate with and answered all my questions prior to booking. If you have a large group I highly recommend this place. You’ll have room to be together and plenty of space to seek solitude. You won’t be disappointed.
Stayed October, 2021
This is our second year at this perfect setting…. Well maintained beach house with plenty of room for family…. Couldn’t ask for a better view of oceanfront, spectacular sunrise $ sunset views from roof top porch…easy access to beach. House equipped with plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. Highly recommend!!!
