It also has its own 3/4 bathroom with shower and a nice size bedroom with queen bed. Light just flows through this space.

Brogan Cottage is 1,000 square foot.

Perfect beach getaway with our dog

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

Daughters Birthday getaway

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.

First Family Vacation

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!

The perfect spot for families

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.

Perfect stay

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!

Wonderful stay!

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!

Best vacation spot for us EVER!

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!

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.

Absolutely excellent property!!!

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!!

Awesome property perfect host

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by nina Behan Licciardi

Host profile image
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
