Beautiful, famous, & historic local hotel. Great food at the restaurant and live piano (on Friday nights). Outdoor bar during summer. This is where many famous artists (Elton John, Billy Joel, Michael Jackson, Madonna, etc) would often stay when performing in Manhattan or locally.

Local Shops

7th Street is a great local place to hang out and enjoy outdoor dining/drinks, small shops, get a coffee, and more. They have fairs there on occasion and during the summer every Friday night it hosts the "Friday Night Promenades" during which the street is closed to traffic and there is live music, fun activities for children (and adults), and more!

One of the largest malls in America and formerly a famous air strip (Charles Lindberg began his famous first Trans-Atlantic flight here). Find almost anything in this mall whether shopping, food, movies, gym, or other fun activities.

Beaches

Popular local beach. They have an amazing air show here every year at the beginning of summer including the Blue Angels! Many other events & activities too (and of course concerts at Jones Beach Theatre). As far as beaches go there are more secluded ones.. many young people can be found at Jones Beach and some people don't like the scene.

It's both a little town with good dining on the beach (on the side of the bay not ocean) and also the name of the local beach. As for beaches this one is much more secluded for those looking for more of a peaceful beach day. Also easier to get to and park from this airbnb location as it's 15 minutes away when taking the Southern state pkwy (East) to the Meadowbrook pkwy (south). It's at the end of the meadowbrook pkwy.

City/town information

Hmm. how do I describe the "city that never sleeps".. I won't lol. I take it you've heard of it and you can use the internet to figure out the endless amount of things to do here. I will say that it is very easy to get here by taking the local Garden City LIRR (Long Island Rail Road) station into Penn Station (which brings you into mid-town and directly under Madison Square Garden. It is a short 35 minute trip, but don't forget to find out if you need to "Change at Jamaica" otherwise you may end up in Brooklyn (which also has tons to do).

Garden City is an affluent neighborhood (begins just 2 houses down from this airbnb) and is home to many great shops, dining/drink spots, gyms, a HUGE mall, and local museums. Many Financial Professionals reside here due to its close proximity to Manhattan. Great place to explore. Check out 7th Street! Take the train to the city (only 35 minutes away)!

Poruszanie się po okolicy

For safe travel..

When exiting the driveway Garden City is to the left (North) and Hempstead is right (South). Garden city is an affluent neighborhood and is very safe. Hempstead can be quite the opposite in some parts. Once you head cross over Hempstead Turnpike the neighborhood does change quite drastically.
