Houses in Long Island

Confortable House
Great place! Me, my friend, & my dad stayed here for 2 nights for a concert & it was excellent, extremely clean & great place to stay! I would definitely stay again

Boho Beach House
Felt like a real home! Was very pleased upon immediate entry as they included items to accommodate my family specially (baby-proofed doors and stairs, high chair, etc.). Host was always very responsive and friendly. Everything in home was nice and in great condition. We hope to rent this home again in the future!

The Hilltop Harborview
Very quiet and peaceful.

The Katalpa House -by the beach
The house was great for my family of five. We stayed there for my daughter's graduation at Stony Brook University, which was about 25 minutes away. All the grocery stores and restaurants were nearby, so there was no need to drive far. The beach is just a short walk from the house, and the kids enjoyed collecting beautiful rocks there. The house had everything we needed, so we did not have to contact John for anything. John was very responsive when I messaged him about my flight delay and even offered to extend our stay by several hours after our checkout time. Overall, we enjoyed this place and had a great time in Long Island.

Spectacular Lake Views from Every Room & Garden
Lovely place with lake views. 100% happy with this choice vs other offerings in the area. House is set on a hill so you are viewing the lake from a higher spot than if you were literally on the lake. Very majestic. There are binoculars on the window sill to check out boats/things going on. I enjoyed the decor/sense of style the host has. Lots of interesting books, art, turntable, board games, cards, etc. The gardens, koi pond are well maintained. Rooms and bath upstairs do have lower ceiling but this info is disclosed in the ad. It didn’t detract from the experience. Went hiking but we were not avid hikers so learning to read the trail markers was new for us. The town is very small but we found nice spots to eat/visit nearby. We did use kitchen and coffee maker. Appliances are very new. Plenty of kitchen utensils. Cool hairdryer. Host def. appreciates design. Thank you for letting us stay a few extra hours past check out. Wonderful time! Felt like I really got away from the stress.

COZY STUDIO with Private Bath Close to LIRR
Amazing bnb. Get far more than what it's worth. Would definitely stay again !

Harbor Heights
Absolutely phenomenal place! Loved all of CJ’s recommendations and the house itself! Will definitely plan to stay again!

GOOD VIBEZ HOUSE! MiniGolf-Pool-HotTub-GameRm!
We liked how easy it was to punch the code in to get into the home. Once in the home, it was really nice to see the welcome placard. We enjoyed access to robes, skincare, slippers, towels, etc. The game room was loads of fun. The indoor and outdoor ping pong tables were fun. We enjoyed billiards, arcade games and table games. The icing on the cake were the hot tub, the four mode shower and bidet. The Smart Home technology took a little getting used to, but it was very convenient once we did. We love the quick response time whenever we had a question or concern. This place allowed for a rejuvenating relaxing atmosphere and we are so glad that we chose “The Good Vibes” home for our debut AirBNB experience. Thanks again for hosting us in your charming abode!

SECRET HIDEAWAY: LUXURY L.I. STUDIO W/PRIV. ENTRN
Louis's place was fantastic! I can't say enough good things about my stay! I wasn't familiar with the area at all and I debated btwn an air bnb or hotel. Thankfully, I made the right choice!! He accommodated last minute requests I had quickly, easing my stress. It really is the perfect hideaway..quiet, peaceful, VERY private and safe feeling. Everything from kitchen to linens to bathroom was spotless! Big and comfy bed..Modern and pristine appliances, and everything that I needed for a quiet dinner in, down to the slightest detail. The rain-like shower felt amazing..so relaxing..like a scalp massage! Spacious and modern, yet very cozy place! The patio and fire area also is great for a private lounge outside. It felt like much thought and caring went into designing this beautiful space and I thoroughly enjoyed it! If I find myself in the area again, I'd definitely want to stay here! Thank you, Louis!

Private Studio & SPA near JFK| UBS arena.

Your Zen Retreat
This was the most beautiful house in a private area in Wading River. It offers peace and tranquility and lives up to its name of Zen Retreat. It was exactly what we were seeking. Conveniently located near parks, farms and wineries I would definitely go back to Brian’s AirBNB. He was an excellent host and very responsive to our needs. Thank you Brian.

Savor Blazing Ocean Sunsets at a Soothing Beachfront Haven
Look no further! The Beach Cottage is beautiful, immaculate, private, and all things one would hope a vacation getaway would entail. This location feels “off the grid” albeit close to modern amenities/stores. Hope to be back soon!

Peaceful Retreat in Immaculate Architect’s House
We had an amazing stay at Michael’s Airbnb this past weekend! The space was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Michael was a fantastic host: super responsive, thoughtful, and made us feel completely at home. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, and the setting was even more beautiful in person. Would absolutely stay here again—thank you for a wonderful experience, Michael!

A-Frame cabin with private beach & epic sunsets
This place is just beautiful! My family and I absolutely loved it and enjoyed our stay. The house is clean, is spacious enough and the private access to the beach is the icing on the cake. The kids loved it so much, my 6 year old is already asking to go back. The Long Island aquarium is approximately 30 minutes away, the restaurants in the area are amazing and people everywhere were friendly. The host is very reliable and answers questions promptly. We definitely recommend it, absolutely worth it!

Montauk Oceanview with Fireplace (2)
Loved the stay! Exactly what we thought it was - extremely convenient and cozy. Plenty of beaches to walk to and the food options were plentiful. Would definitely stay again.

Your guide to Long Island
Welcome to Long Island
To the east of New York City, Long Island stretches from just past John F. Kennedy International Airport all the way to Montauk, and has a personality all of its own. At its heart, it’s a comfortable suburb so many New Yorkers call home, but it’s just as vibrant of a destination, especially thanks to its 118 miles of white-sand coastline with 150 beaches on both sides. It also has its own wineries and breweries, more than 60 golf courses, art and science museums, historic landmarks, and the fanciest of mansions along its Gold Coast. And with fresh seafood and farms of every kind, the food scene is just as thrilling.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Long Island
The warmest months in Long Island are from May to September, and the coldest are between December and February. While it does snow during the winter months, it tends to be less than the rest of the state — usually just a few snowstorms a year, and most times, it’s less than an inch. Annual events include the oldest Triple Crown race, the Belmont Stakes, in Elmont in June; the Tomato Festival in Mattituck in August; the Long Island Summer Festival at Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove in July; and the Festival of Trees at the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City during the holidays.
Top things to do in Long Island
Fire Island
No cars are allowed on this 32-mile-long barrier island along the Atlantic coast, inherently making it an idyllic beach destination where the pace of life slows down. Along with its 17 separate communities is the 40-acre maritime Sunken Forest and 168-foot-tall Fire Island Lighthouse — the tallest on Long Island.
Gold Coast Mansions
All that glitters just might be gold here. On the northern side of Long Island from Port Washington to Centerport, the coastline is dotted with mansions so extravagant that they’ve inspired literature. Highlights include the Vanderbilt Museum and Planetarium in Centerport.
Montauk Point State Park
At the far eastern point of the South Fork, the waters of the Atlantic Ocean meet the strait of the Block Island Sound, causing a phenomenon where the tides seem to race against one another. Take a hike along the shore and you might also see seals out on the rocks, or grab a board and surf the waves (surf fishing is also popular here). For a higher perspective, stop by the state’s oldest lighthouse, Montauk Lighthouse, right next door.
