The Island Guest House...a Long Beach Island bed and breakfast...a new experience at the shore!

The Island Guest House is a lovingly restored, award-winning, turn-of-the-century, ocean-side inn located in the historic heart of Beach Haven, NJ on LBI. Our B&B is steps away from the beach and within walking distance of all the area attractions in the premiere resort town of Beach Haven, New Jersey. It has been voted "Best Bed and Breakfast" by the readers of the Times Beacon Newspaper.

Modern amenities blend seamlessly with Old World charm, and the innkeepers, Mark and Joanne, pledge to consistently offer a superior level of hospitality and warmth aimed at providing and insuring the best possible vacation lodging experience for you. From that first or second honeymoon to a family vacation, large group gathering, or romantic getaway, there is a wonderful "Boutique Hotel" experience for everyone!

Choose from fifteen guest rooms with amenities galore! Bring family or friends and be comfortable in our 2-bedroom suites. The decor is an intriguing mix of Victorian country and European taste and style in a relaxed sophistication and truly classic ambiance. Our cottage, with gas fireplace and Jacuzzi tub, sits at the back of the courtyard overlooking the garden, and welcomes inn-timate couples, families, or pets.

The garden courtyard is a perfect place to hold your wedding or family reunion, or to just sip champagne with your special someone at one of our candlelit tables under the evening bistro lights. Gather or relax on our front porch full of wicker furniture and enjoy the ocean breezes. Curl up with a book from the library or use your laptop with our complimentary wireless Internet service. Also complimentary are beach badges and beach chairs.

Want a new experience? Memories are made here, from fabulous service to special moments under the stars, and days starting with gourmet breakfast menus, which include Mark and Joanne's signature cheese blintzes with strawberries and whipped cream. Enjoy beautiful white sandy beaches followed by a cool afternoon iced tea garnished with fresh mint from our garden. In the evening, stroll down to see a play at the Surflight Theatre, dine at one of the many award-winning restaurants, or enjoy mini golf and a soft ice cream cone. Let all of our special touches here at the Island Guest House and all that Beach Haven can offer bring fond memories that are uniquely yours!
