It was as clean as a home this age could be, but there were ants in the kitchen. When I let the owner know, I was given an errand, not a solution.
Belmar Beach is a little sleepy, not many restaurant options right on the beach, but plenty in town, which is an easy, safe walk. It was nice to have some beach passes included, but it would make sense to have more, considering the capacity of the home.
The communication in the week leading up to our stay was almost non existent, & I was honestly concerned, especially with all of us flying in from thousands of miles away. It was only after we arrived that we started getting consistent text messages, and prompt responses to our messages.
This was our first time staying anywhere that did not include towels or sheets, which was truly inconvenient (we had to pay for extra checked luggage!).
The home is truly lovely and overpriced for what is (not) included.
