If there's one thing New Jersey is full of, it's places to stay on a beach vacation. There are countless hotels dotting the shore, and for those who want a more personal touch, vacation rentals make it easy to rent an apartment, condo, or hotel. But what about those who want to go big - really big? What if you're hosting a whole family reunion on the Jersey Shore? That's where one unique place to stay in Brigantine, NJ comes in - and our jaws dropped when we took a look at this place. This isn't just a vacation rental, it's a massive Mediterranean mansion that sleeps eighteen, and it's just as stunning on the inside as it is on the outside. Only feet away from the beach with one of the most beautiful views in the entire state, this isn't just one of the most unique places to stay in New Jersey - it's one of the best.

Like something out of a storybook, this massive mansion is the perfect location for an oversized holiday getaway.

Inside, it's just as impressive as the exterior, making guests feel like they're stepping into a royal palace.

Every room of the house is packed with attention to detail, but of course all the modern amenities are here. You can have the best of the classic and modern world.

The spacious house has a full kitchen and airy dining area. This is ideal for the off-season when guests might not want to go out into the cold as often.

Did we mention this place sleeps eighteen? Every room is gorgeous, and there are seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, and one half-bathroom. That'll make those mornings easier!

The house has a ground-level pool for those summer adventures, but that's far from the only outdoor amenity.

We absolutely love the rooftop patio, which provides a stunning, unobstructed view of the beach.

That's right, the beach is only feet away! Just head out of the house for a Jersey shore getaway.

The most popular restaurant in town is Pirate's Den, a casual diner-style joint with indoor and outdoor seating.

The highlight is definitely the inventive and indulgent breakfast menu, while lunch and dinner offer a wide selection of hearty American and Italian standards.
