Airy home, sleeps 6, free WiFi, quiet street, pool, near beach and golf course

Overall, the pool and the house were presentable, although we had several issues. The biggest issue was getting a timely response from the host when needed. Phone calls we made were either unanswered , voice mail was not always available, or when a response’s received, it was many hours after we left a message. Another issue was that the electricity went off twice, yet only this house in the neighborhood. We were unable to check the breaker box, located in the garage, because the door was locked and we did not have a key. One night we had to leave because it was dark with no lights or air conditioning. We had to make different arrangements for the night. The beds are extremely hard one bed had no box springs and we bought an air mattress to use and slept on the couch for the entire month. The linens are unacceptable with stains on the towels and pillows. The sheets need upgraded. We were unable to use the TV remote even though we replaced the batteries. There were no directions on how to operate any devices. It would have been nice to have a welcome package with detailed instructions. If staying long, we recommend that you bring an air mattress, mixing bowels, extra silverware, and linens.

Upon arrival, the house was very dirty. I had to do some cleaning that should have been completed prior to stay. The house needs a deep clean.l and major sanitation. I wiped down the counters and my cloth was black. Owner said they have had contractors in and out this cleaning is not done prior to new guests if there is a long time between stays. As a side not the owner refunded us $200 for cleaning issues. The key holder met with us the second day and was very negative about the owner, the house condition, the surroundings and was adamant she was not the property manager. So there is no property manager to oversee the condition of the house and the pool. It shows. The house had damage from the hurricane that was not disclosed to us prior to booking and not within the timeframe to cancel or not book. We received the details of the hurricane damage in our welcome letter. The lanai was described as torn, in reality there was no screen left. There were Remi ants of screen hanging and no attempts to make it look better. Also the pool cover was shredded and pieces of it were floating in the water. The pool was very dirty. Additionally, we came during a cold front and the heat pump did not work more than half the days we were there. Upon complaining I was told I should have done a google search on heat pumps to know it would not work in colder weather. My thoughts - why have a heated pool if not to use in cooler temps, also we have stayed in Destin often, with cool temps and still had a heated pool so, silly is, figured that we would receive a heated pool. The neighborhood is not safe, according to the key holder. The surrounding beaches and many fish restaurants were still closed from the hurricane. Again, I wish we would have been told in advance of booking. The owners responded saying we should have known. This was a new area for us to stay so we had no idea the damage would still exist. We stayed in Destin following Michael and that location was quickly turned around. In the end, our stay, in my opinion, not as expected or as described in the house description. Very unhappy with this visit. The owner will respond to this review saying it is a malicious review however I have no malicious intent- only to offer a review for others.

This house was very clean and comfortable. The check in process was easy and convenient. This is not necessarily a complaint, but more advisory for future guests - the kitchen was not very well-stocked. We ended up having to purchase several items to do some needed cooking for a family event. If you need to do any substantial baking, just plan to get what you need!

From the check in I had a bad experience with the key holder, Lisa. She was not welcoming and was sure to tell me everything that we were not aloud to do at the property or the consequences. The home was not very clean, the furniture not comfortable. My granddaughters feet were black after crawing on the floor. The bed linen smelled of sweat. Then the location was in a really shady neighborhood that the key holder was sure to tell us it was not safe! Will not stay here again, didn't want to stay this time but with the damage from the hurricane I didn't have any options to stay somewhere else!

Clean , close to all and pool was amazing. Host was always available . Highly recommend . Ty for a great stay.

Place was OK. 2 of the bedrooms are small and all the beds are VERY HARD also. Springs shot in couch and loveseat in living room and hard to get up out of them. Not near enough cutlery for 5 people. Pool was great though.

This house was perfect for our group of 4 adults. The location was great for athletes participating in a pickleball tournament in Punta Gorda which was just a 20 mins drive. The house was spacious and had everything we needed including a wonderful warm and sparkling clean pool. There was a variety of shopping and dining in both Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte. We would definitely come back to this property. It was clean, spacious, in a friendly neighborhood and great location. We had a nice stay.

great location in the area where my vietnam reunion was held. Quite neighborhood and nice house. I will consider this choice again if the reunion happens again next year

Nice pool house with washer/dryer, comfy beds. Near grocery stores, shops etc. Can get to various beaches in 20-30 min.

We was supposed to meet the host at 3pm she finally showed up at 3:40pm. She did a walk around with us saying you might find toys around house cause we didn’t have time to clean it right sure enough we did under beds under the couches. She then said that carpet cleaner coming on Tuesday which was inconvenient for us our daughter and grandkids was coming over to visit us. The couches sank down very uncomfortable.Then the Ac wasn’t working called host she like let me call you back didn’t hear anything back I kept trying calling her and texting her no response until I said if you call me or text me I’m going to call VRBO to see what they can do she finally text back and said ac company will be coming back it’s going to be late cause they are back up lucky my daughter came and she knew what was wrong with it and fixed it. Then after a week no body came to clean pool I had to text her for that. Then I was doing laundry the door fell apart.
