The Ocean Park Inn is cozy bed and breakfast only a block away from the boardwalk. The frittatas they serve are amazing, great and cheap spot for a weekend getaway

Beautiful property and very conveniently located - close to the train, the boardwalk, and the restaurant/bar scene in Asbury. Breakfast in the morning was an added plus. This place is a great deal as well. We had a great weekend and will be back.

Thank you! Just to clarify for anyone reading this, breakfast is not only toast and frittata. We have whole wheat and cinnamon/raisin bread, coffee cake, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, frittata, coffee, tea and juice.

The Ocean Park Inn was a great place to stay! We wanted somewhere we could go for a beach getaway from NYC without a car. The Inn was easily accessible by NJ Transit and just a 5 min walk to the beach. The place was very clean and quiet and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing weekend.

It was ok. Just bed was very small for 2 people. The steps to the floors were very steep and narrow. caution for elderly people, bed linens wasn’t crispy fresh like in house. My husband didn’t sleep all night! We left not even use free breakfast! General it is just ok for 1 nights and I like it was super close to beach and sidewalk! I really enjoyed walk in the evening and in the morning!

Quaint B n' B in Ocean Grove on a very quiet and safe street. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was limited but very good. The bathrooms are shared but there are also shared decks/porches that are very nice. There is also a nice little guest lounge with a TV. The place is within walking distance to the boardwalk and all Asbury Park attractions such as the Stone Pony. Highly recommend poking around the town of Ocean Grove which is a very cool throwback town with tons of Victorian architecture. Would definitely stay here again.

Shower is small, my daughter found a blond strand of hair in her fritata but she didn’t tell anyone or me about it, I found out about it later on. My breakfast was great. I was happy to see an extra bed in our room. I would definitely go back and stay there again👍

Thanks for your review, Melva. Just an explanation for anyone reading this: While we are sorry that Melva's daughter found a hair, it could not have come from our staff - I make the frittata each day and I have short dark hair. It must have come from another guest at the buffet, which, though unfortunate, is beyond our control.

Perfect little weekend getaway
Dominick and his family are absolutely the sweetest folk out there! Check in did not start until 4 pm but they were so accommodating and allowed my party to come in early use the facilities and get ready for the beach which was a less then a 5 min walk. You truly feel like your joining their home for your stay, filled with pictures of their family at the beach and throughout the years . I can’t say a single bad thing about this place!

My boyfriend and I both have family in the area but we live in Philly. We wanted to enjoy a trip to the shore without having to tell anyone we were there and just enjoy a nice getaway from the city. Ocean Park Inn was perfect for us. It was comfortable, clean, and the owner and his son were lovely people that made our experience even better. We were able to borrow beach chairs, store our leftovers in the fridge, and even walk over to the cute little park across the street to hangout and hear the live music from the stone pony. We have decided that we are going to try and spend a weekend or two there every summer from now on.

Our stay at Ocean Park Inn was perfect for the two nights we spent down the shore. Accommodations are simple, but perfect for a chill trip to the beach. We were able to borrow towels and beach chairs which was helpful for a multi-day stay. Everything was clean and staff was very friendly.

I wish I was staying longer than one night but so glad I found this AMAZING place. Check-in was seamless and a great introduction to the area. The room was spacious and spotless. The amenities are exactly as described and the common spaces were pristine. This being a bed and breakfast, I wasn’t sure if the noise would be an issue…I heard nothing. Love Asbury but the cost to stay overnight can be painful. This place is maybe 15 minutes away from the boardwalk through a beautiful neighborhood. I found my go to spot for my trips to the shore! See y’all soon!
