Top 20 Brooklyn Heights, New York vacation rentals & luxury serviced apartments

The Heights is the neighbourhood of choice for Brooklyn’s rich and famous, elevated above the East River with fabulous panoramic views of Lower Manhattan. Once known as Brooklyn Village, this part of town consists of high-ceilinged brownstones that line quiet, leafy streets, many of which are charmingly named after trees and fruits. Browse the antiques stores along Atlantic Avenue, or pay a visit to the cosy cafes and highly regarded restaurants on Henry Street. At sunset, stroll along the raised promenade - where you'll find your affluent neighbours out walking their dogs - or head down to Brooklyn Bridge Park for a picnic by the water. It's also just a short walk to Jane's Carousel - very nearly a hundred years old and beautifully restored - which is well worth checking out.
