Location was the only thing that kept me from giving it 3 stars.
The cleaning crew should be fired. You could hardly see through the windows/screens, they were so dirty and the ceiling fans were absolutely filthy. For Such a large cleaning fee I would expect the place to be cleaner. I get that it is a tropical location, humid, with wind and sand, but honestly it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in months. Definitely not before our arrival.
Garbage disposal, shower in the jack & jill bath didn’t work, 2 of the 4 floor fans didn’t work, outlet in master was off the wall, and I’m guessing the safe needed batteries because it didn’t work either.
As VRBO owners ourselves, and frequent renters around the country, this place was disappointing to say the least. They require a 10 day minimum stay and provide you with a 3 days supply of toilet paper & paper towels, which seemed a little cheap to me.
When we tried to contact the caretaker we got no response until we contacted the VRBO property manager. It took over 36 hours for them to get back to us and send out a plumber when the kitchen sink wouldn’t drain.
The actual house, and location was absolutely spectacular! We were close to groceries, food trucks, attractions, and the beach.
We suggest the owner make a surprise visit and invest a little money to repair, and clean things up a bit.
