Surprised

A little tough to check in not knowing about the open door and the hidden key by the fireplace. We thought it would take two days to get an answer, just like the questions I had earlier during booking that took more than a day to answer. Also, I got sick with cancer, and no longer mobile. I could not go along on the trip to use my Vrbo App in the family’s presence. No one else in the family that was there could use the App. It was in my name only.

Wish I would’ve read the reviews

Read all reviews before renting. I read a review and thought changes would have been made after a bad review. No changes and not 4 bedrooms. Serious trip hazards, limited furniture.

Not as described

Our company rented this place for two work crews (4 adult males). They could not enter the property on time because of a late check out. The description said a four bedroom with four beds. This was a lie. It has three bedrooms with three beds that are as hard as a rock. Just looked at the listing again, now they are saying it's a five bedroom, they must have done a lot of construction in the last couple of weeks. The house was obviously still under renovation when we stayed. The doors will not lock and the coffee pot had white and orange mold in it. I will never book this place again.

Definitely Recommend

The property was clean and spacious. The neighborhood was quaint and in a good location. The only issue we had was it is listed as a 4 bedroom and it was only 3. Overall, I would stay there again.

Total Misrepresentation of the property! Horrible Experience

The listing photos are NOT the furniture on property. Beds missing, sofas missing, smelled like mold with plug ins everywhere to try to hid the smell. French doors leading outside were tied shut with mesh! Uneven floors and trip hazards. Roll of toilet paper holding the bathroom mirror in place. Light bulbs burned out, Black stains on the sofa that was in the living room area, linens were rags. Left early and got a hotel. Horrible experience!

Work stay

Alot of things listed were not accurate. 1st not a single tv in the house. We were booked 2 nights and the second night around 9pm we were delivered tvs. No internet but a hot spot was also delivered the second night. The master bedroom was not on house ac and had a window unit in a spare room off the side. There were also a bunch of hairs in the master bed. Food was left in the freezer. Shows 5 bedrooms and multiple beds but there were only 3. Couch in pictures was not the couch that's there and it shows another couch in a family room and wasnt the same. Communication was good with the owner and responded to requests. Had donuts sitting out for breakfast and in the morning was full of ants so had to throw them away. Backyard area was nice and fenced in. Key to the house was also delivered around 1030pm due to housekeeper forgetting to leave when done cleaning. Luckily we weren't there on vacation otherwise would've made a bigger deal about the missing things. Wouldn't recommend.

Poor communication

I asked if we could check in early. I was told 1 was fine and the door would be unlocked. I arrived a little after 1 and the house was not clean. I contacted the owner and received a call that check in wasn’t till 4…. I said “I was told I could come at 1” and he said “must have been poor communication”….? (I have it in writing we could be there at 1, And the door was unlocked) That was the only time we heard from him. I asked about the WiFi and got no answer. Voicemail was full. No response to text. The temp was at 81 in the house and wouldn’t let us change it because it said it needed to connect to WiFi. Flys we’re all over the house when we got there.

Very disappointed

We arrived at the property after 4:00 check in. The doors were locked and and no instructions or email from the owner on how to get into the property. I tried to call the owner, no answer. I tried multiple times. No answer. We walked around the house and the side door was open and would not lock. The key was on the fireplace with no instructions on anything. No internet password, no personal touches, nothing. He finally answered me the following morning and we were checking out. The coffee pot had moldy grounds in it, and there was laundry in the dryer.

Its not 5 bedroom is just 3!!

Lleve mi bebe... no le lleve su crib porque el propietario me dijo que me hiba a proporcionar una. En la descripcion se dice que hay 5 dormitorios en realidad son 3. Es seguro el vencidario.. pero la puerta de la cosina no coje llave.. quedo abierta siempre. Es un ppco oscura la entrada no hay bonbillas afuera y los escalones son peligrosos para subir.. la caa es amplia y la localizacion es buena.. buenos restaurantes y cerca del puerto. El patio es muy grande y seguro.
