Spacious Living with City Views!
Elsie’s apartment is simply amazing! Very well located, well equipped, calm neighborhood. The bus stop is just 50 meters away and in 15 minutes you are at the center of Manhattan! Great communication, we got all the responses immediately. Lovely welcome with vine and flowers. In few words, we spent wonderful 10 days there! Thank you, Elsie!

Summer time is here! Quick commute to NYC! Garage!
Alan is really helpful and communicative and he wants to make sure your stay is as comfortable as possible. The apartment itself is gorgeous and spacious. I enjoyed my stay!

Best NYC View! - Cozy 2 bed with Balcony & Patio
Wonderful place, with stunning views of the manhattan skyline. Away from the noise and crowds, yet it is very easy (and cheap) to get to midtown with the buses that run frequently. I was visiting NYC with my elderly parents, and they were very comfortable (as were my wife and myself). Highly recommended!

Manhattan view 3-bedroom apartment
Great spot with an amazing view, plus parks, spas, and a nice plaza close by. Overall, a great stay! The host was super responsive and always tried to help. The only hiccup was that it was freezing the first couple of days, but things warmed up eventually—mostly thanks to the weather. BUT if you’re driving, never block the downstairs garage, even for a quick drop-off. The neighbor downstairs is not friendly and actually threatened to call the cops when I was just dropping off food for my mom. There was literally nowhere else to park, so I left a quick note, but still—no luck. To avoid the hassle, get a visitor pass—the process is super easy, just five blocks away. And make sure to come back earlier than 10 pm, that way you can find some street parking.

Valerie was a great host! We enjoyed our stay and all the extra little bonus goodies that Valerie provided!

Luxury PH - Best NYC Skyline
First and foremost, Michaela is one of the most responsive and helpful hosts I’ve encountered on this app. She elevated our experience with constant communication, flexibility, and timeliness with meeting us (we arrived at the airport at 5am and she met us at the Airbnb by the time we arrived at 6am!). Plus, I locked myself out and she bent over backwards to get a spare key to let me in. She’s amazing. The place itself is in a great location with beautiful views. As others have mentioned, people live there, so you’ll find the dressers and closets full of clothes. So you’ll need to live out of your suitcase. Overall, great experience.

Oasis on the Hudson: NYC Views & Vibes
Jamie was so helpful and nice! Wish we could have stayed longer as this Airbnb was super cozy perfect spot right outside the city. It was freshly clean and stocked with towels and essentials. There is construction going on outside of the property but they were very courteous and gave us space to check in and check out. Definitely recommend this property for NYC travel!

Beach Front Escape - Rockaway Beach NYC
So glad we stayed at John's beachfront home. We wanted a way to escape the noise and chaos of a large city and this was the perfect fit. Granted the commute is longer, but we couldn't get enough of the amazing ferry ride from Rockaway to Manhattan/Wall Street. Such a great way to explore NYC.

LargePrivate guest suite in bayfront house
The apartment met all expectations. I felt very comfortable. The bed was insanely comfortable so I could sleep very well. Of course, the way to Manhattan from Rockaway Beach is not the shortest, but I knew that in advance. Within 75 minutes I was "in the middle" of whether I went by train or boat. Supermarket and the recommended "restaurant" are also within walking distance (5 minutes). Even as a woman traveling alone, I felt safe in the area. The fact that you were on the beach within a few minutes' walk in the most beautiful weather was rounded off.

Family Friendly
Stephen’s place was in a great location for a beach weekend with friends. The house was walkable to the beach and restaurants and was as described in the listing.

Immerse yourself in Indulgence!
Just checked out. Wanted to say how hospitable and amazing the bnb was. We have a huge family and everything was perfect. Many memories from this house now especially the Wedding memories. Also thank you for being super flexible and understanding

King Bed | Meditation Library | NYC & EWR
Decent functional setting. Responsive host. Gateway location.

The BeachHouse in NYC Staten Island
This was a wonderful place to stay with my family. It’s only 20 minutes from the ferry if you’re planning to go to New York. The location is surrounded by all the stores you could possibly need. The yard is enormous, which was a pleasant surprise. Although it’s too cold to go swimming, the beach is within walking distance.

Stylish & Comfy |5★ Location, Deck, ♛4Br/3 Full BA
place was as described. havi g the separate room downstairs was perfect for friends who wanted privacy. only issues...no mugs, glasses, cooking utensils, plates available in downstairs room which was equipped with a small kitchenette. if u are concerned with someone above u...it can be a bit noisy from upstairs especially during our sleeping hours as those guests came in very late at night. the kitchen upstairs could use some cleaning sorting of the drawers as the contents were dirty and jumbled and hard to see what was available to share with the downstairs unit

Lovely private home in a serene neighborhood
Natalija’s airbnb was bright, airy and inviting. The bed was comfortable with clean linens. Kitchen stocked with all the necessary cookware for a comfortable at home stay.

CONDO LIKE NO OTHER |SAUNA|OCEAN VIEW | POOL TABLE
The condo is spectacular and the host was very gracious and helpful! Note: there are alot of stairs to climb. We were unaware of this prior to checking in and my mother was unable to make it up the stairs due to her recent hip surgery. So please note there are stairs and it's not handicapped accessible. Otherwise great stay! Thanks!

Fantastic stay for 4 – Heart of Hoboken!
The apartment is located in a perfect location, close to the Hudson River with amazing views across to the manhattan skyline. Transport links were great too - we were able to get across to manhattan for all the sightseeing trips we had booked quickly and smoothly. AJ was an excellent host. Very quick to respond and so helpful with our enquiries. All his responses and instructions were very clear. We would recommend this property to friends and family.

New Beautiful Condo In Bayonne near NYC
I had an absolutely wonderful experience staying at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, everything was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared. The space was stylish and cozy, with all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, offering helpful local tips and making sure I felt right at home. The neighborhood was peaceful, safe, and conveniently located near restaurants, shops, and public transportation. Neighborhood is HORRIBLE for parking This place truly felt like a home away from home. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier Airbnb experience. Thank you for an amazing stay!
