Mid Winter Kosher Vacation Ideas on the New Jersey Shore for Frum Couples

Hi everyone! Winter has finally settled in, and it’s cold! Boy is it cold. Low teens today in the morning in the greater New York metropolitan area. So… You feel like you need a break, but don’t want to break the bank. So where do you go? We got quite a few inquires in the last week asking us for ideas for a quick “Couples Getaway”. And few inquired about the Jersey Shore. So here are some ideas. The Jersey Shore is very attractive to Frum Jewish couples from the New York/New Jersey area that look for a quick break. Be it for a couple of days mid week, or just a weekend getaway. And for good reason. So here are our recommendations, based on our own experience! Hotel and Lodging Ocean Place Resort & Spa is a beautiful, recently renovated resort right on the beach in Long Branch, New Jersey. They are very friendly and accommodating.

Summer 2018 is almost here and lots of families or planning their summer vacations. In the past, most families will head to “The Mountains”, the Catskills region in Upstate New York to spend the summer in a bungalow colony. The mother would stay all week to take care of the kids, play Bingo with the ladies and buy ice cream when the ice cream truck would roll by. But these days, more and more families are no longer going to spend the summer in the “Bungalows” for many reasons. One of them being that in our times, in lots of families, both parents work. Hence the reason for this article. In this post we will discuss how to plan a great kosher vacation for the Frum Orthodox Jewish family. We will discuss vacations that are ideal from just a few days up to two weeks.

As some background information: There are 2 major sorts of car rental insurance. The first category includes CDW, which is Collision Damage Waiver (also referred sometimes as LDW – loss damage waiver) and the second category is Liability.
