We rented the house for a four day stay to be in town to see family. House was as described; earlier reviews accurate in that there is some mold in shower grout. We did not find it dirty at all as described in the winter 2023 reviews. All was clean, there were coffee makers, and we had no problem getting into the house. Communication with the owner through VRBO was easy. There were ants in the dining room, but the owner warned about that in the instructions. We had trouble finding extra towels--only one was in each of the smaller bathrooms, and we did not find beach towels. There were beach chairs and equipment in the garage which was very nice. Pool was lovely. My only recommendations would be more silverware (We had 6 people in the house and went through the silverware quickly), and to switch to a code lock as having only one key was tricky with more than one family staying in the home. Thank you!
The property is fine. Not a convenient location but a nice house. The rental agents are the absolute worst! They refuse to answer messages left on the site (as the site requests) in a timely fashion. When we could not get into the house, calls went to voicemail and when we finally got them to send Boris out, he explained how it was inconvenient for him. That is all you really need to know.
Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood we really enjoyed our stay after dealing with a few problems. Home lacked cleanliness the floors needed to be washed, pool area needed hosing down, this situation became apparent when everybody’s feet became black. One of the sliding doors wasn’t able to be locked we secured it ourselves but it is still an issue. Garage in shambles empty boxes from appliances and other stuff stacked up not disposed of. Lawn needed mowing when we arrived but wasn’t cut for another three weeks. Maintenance needs to be improved guests shouldn’t nave to deal with these issues at the beginning of their stay. Maintenance responded on a couple issues promptly.
The house is divided beautifully, it did however need a deep cleaning! When we arrived proper instructions were not given for the key pad. After numerous calls & emails to Property manager we finally were told the missing piece to the code. You would assume that the correct information would be given prior to arrival. We communicated with property manager that there was an issue with keypad as it was making noise, at no time did anyone come out to see what was happening. It turns out that the batteries needed to be replaced & we had to buy them -twice as the keypad is not working properly. We were told that some one would drop off a key to ensure we could get in the house yet no one came & of course no key. Our saving grace was that the sliding glass door in the back does not lock & we were able to enter house. Again we communicated with property manager that slider was broken no one came as management was non responsive to our requests! Sheets for beds need to be replaced, as they didn’t fit beds properly & pillows as well. We ended up having to buy some kitchen utensils and a coffee maker. It would have been nice if there was a gas grill instead of charcoal.
The house is beautifully decorated and the pool was wonderful. Host responsive to communication. It just wasn't a good fit for our group of 6 - myself, spouse, 2 adult sons and my in-laws. There are 2 family/sitting rooms (only one with a TV) and neither had comfortable sitting for more than 4-5. We like to watch movies together and that wasn't possible here. The bedroom I was in didn't have any outlets available on my side of the bed to plug my phone in. We used the 6 beach towels and 3 of the beach chairs for our beach jaunts which was nice.
We had only one half used roll of toilet paper per bathroom. We recommend stocking that. There were no replacement garbage bags to be found. Stick that as well. Once we were at the house, it was difficult to communicate with manager about jets in pool. But overall, beautiful place to stay!
Wonderful property! Close to beaches and shopping. Comfy beds and nicely decorated.
This house was as beautiful as the pictures depicted. Great location close to beaches, restaurants & shopping. The only negative we encountered was a sense of lacking regarding details: We had trouble communicating with the management about what was included prior to arrival in regards to toiletries, paper goods, cleaning supplies, pantry items & beach/pool items. For the price, there wasn't much included. We made several runs to the store. We were missing pillow cases, light bulbs were blown, dryer was malfunctioning, key lock box was difficult, not enough bath, beach or kitchen towels or kitchen utensils, serving bowls, pots & pans, baking items, no broiler pan. Description should clarify that grill is not gas & has no utensils, potholders or cleaning brush. There are only 2 pool lounge chairs for 8 people. What appears to be a hot tub in pictures is not functional- part of pool. Game room is just a TV room (1 of only 2 TVs in entire house- 3 bedrooms have no TVs). Coffee maker should indicate single cup Keurig. There was mold & ants in master shower. No cleaning supplies or broom/mop. If we had flown instead of driven, we would have had to go without. To end on a positive note- beds were comfy, beach equipment that was available was top of the line & kids had a great time in the pool.
The house was very nice. There were some light bulbs out and the landscape needed some touch ups/grass cut.
WE loved our stay here. Prompt communication. I hope it is available next time we visit Florida!
