The property itself was very nice and clean, and I had specifically chosen it because of its location. We paid a significant amount for an off-season stay because being close to the beach and boardwalk was very important to us. I was traveling with my 74-year-old mother, so being able to leave our car parked and have easy access to the beach and a nearby restroom was a major factor in choosing this rental.Unfortunately, the nearby beach access was closed because of the concert setup, which meant we had to drive to the beach instead. Had I known about the closure beforehand, I may have made a different choice. I understand that the closure was not the owner’s fault, but I do feel that a temporary closure that significantly affected one of the main benefits of the location should have been communicated to guests.What was most disappointing was how my concern was handled. I was simply trying to let the owner know about an issue that affected our stay, but the response felt defensive and dismissive rather than understanding. No resolution or alternative was offered, and the only follow-up was asking what time we would be leaving.Again, the property itself is lovely, but the beach-access issue made a significant difference for us, especially with my mother. I would have appreciated better communication and a more helpful response from the owner.
