Great location directly on the beach. That was the best aspect of the property. But, and there's always a "but," the house seemed very outdated and disgustingly filthy.
The interior and furnishings were old. Looks like no renovations have been done in years.
We were so grateful that we were able to bring our dogs that week, but it appeared that the carpets had not been cleaned in ages. There were very many spots on all of the carpets, and we assumed they were from dogs peeing on them. It would probably be more sanitary to rip the carpets out and replace them with linoleum.
There is no way that the house was cleaned before arrival. Me, my wife, and our guests spent nearly an hour cleaning the bathrooms, kitchen, and common areas. I know this is going to sound gross, but the 1/2 bath in the large bedroom looked as though someone took a huge bowel movement and feces was sprayed all around the toilet bowl. The other full bath's toilet was also appalling. My wife put on rubber gloves and cleaned the underside of the bowl with a rag, and it was completely black. In the living room behind one of the cabinets we found a dog toy along with crumbs, dirt, and dust that had been there for quite some time. I could go on in regard to other items that needed cleaning/attention, but it'd take too long. In VACASA's defense, they did reimburse me for the cleaning fee. It's just sad that you drive nearly 8 hours and come into a property that wasn't cleaned.
