Welcome to Great Times Away — where every stay is more than just a place to sleep, it’s a chance to escape the everyday.

Based in the heart of Jersey City, New Jersey, our team is passionate about creating comfortable, memorable spaces for travelers from all walks of life. We started with a simple vision: to offer stays that feel like home while giving guests access to the energy and excitement of nearby New York City.

With over 8 years of real estate experience and 5 years as dedicated Hosts, we’ve fine-tuned the art of hospitality. We understand what matters most to travelers—clean, stylish spaces, thoughtful touches, fast responses, and a host who truly cares about your stay.

Whether you’re a solo traveler, a family on vacation, or a group in town for work or fun, we design our properties to provide a seamless blend of comfort, convenience, and local charm. From cozy studios to spacious multi-unit homes perfect for large groups, every Great Times Away property is carefully curated to help you relax, recharge, and enjoy.

We love hosting because it allows us to meet incredible people from around the world, share our favorite local spots, and be part of travel stories that last a lifetime. Jersey City is more than just our base—it’s our home, and we’re proud to help guests experience the best of it.

At Great Times Away, we believe your trip should be more than just a getaway—it should be a great time away. Let us host your next visit and show you the difference genuine hospitality makes.
