Historic Shore Hotel with Private Beach Access in Ocean Grove

Self-Service Check-In & Apartment Living

The Allenhurst operates with private passcode locks, allowing guests to check in and out by entering a 4-digit code with no front desk interaction. Each apartment includes a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and dining table. A washing machine and dryer are available in the hallway, and guests receive 2 beach passes for the week.

Historic Character & Quiet Atmosphere

The building is a 100+ year old former rooming house, with quirks like winding stairways and closets that lead into the hallway. Guests consistently note the quiet, no-partying environment that makes it suitable for families. The architecture, warmth of the people, and the feel of the place are frequently praised in reviews.

Prime Beachside Location

Asbury Park Beach is a 7-minute walk away, and the Asbury Park Boardwalk lies 1.6 km from the property. The Allenhurst is a few blocks from Ocean Grove's boardwalk, the famed Auditorium, and tent city. A grocery store is located around the corner, and on-street parking is available (easier during off-season).

Pet-Friendly Accommodations

Pets are allowed at The Allenhurst, though guests should note that some apartments are on upper floors with higher-than-normal stair risers. The 75-lb dog of a previous guest had to be carried up and down stairs, so first-floor rooms are recommended for pets or guests with mobility issues. The property has fire extinguishers and smoke alarms for safety.

Family-Friendly Features

Families benefit from kitchens, free laundry, and beach passes that eliminate daily rental costs. The historic layout creates a maze-like environment that small children find endlessly fascinating. Reviewers highlight the immaculate cleanliness and the availability of beach tags for the entire stay.
