Belle maison avec piscine, bain à remous et vue magnifique, à quelques pas de la plage

It was a true pleasure having such a wonderful guest like Kathryn and her family at our home. They enjoyed our home and cared for it like we would. She is a model guest.

This guest says "warm and fuzzies", however I received 13 text messages before this guest ever arrived asking everything under the sun and many of the questions were answerable if he would have reviewed the narrative on my home and the pictures. He says "many of the accoutrements were less steller". Please read the review of Edith who stayed right after this guest wherein she raves about the house "having literally everything". If this guest thinks he can buy this or any home of this magnitude for $6.5 million (MORE LIKE $10 MILLION), I would like to see where those homes are in Coronado. My pool company showed this guest how to turn on the pool heater but he did it wrong the first 3 times. With regard to the tiles, there was a small sample of the 4 inches by 4 inches in each bathroom as we have just started $1 million renovation which will be amazing. THE VERY WORST PART ABOUT THIS GUEST IS ON DECEMBER 24TH HE WROTE ME AND ASKED IF THEY COULD STAY AN EXTRA 5 DAYS BUT DID NOT TELL ME WHY. ONCE I TOLD HIM THAT THEY COULD NOT EXTEND THEIR STAY BECAUSE I HAVE ANOTHER GUEST COMING ON CHRISTMAS DAY. IT WAS NOT UNTIL THE NEXT DAY THAT HE TOLD ME THE TRUTH AS TO WHY THEY NEEDED TO EXTEND THEIR STAY. IT WAS BECAUSE A FAMILY MEMBER CONTRACTED COVID AND THEY COULD'NT FLY UNTIL THEY GOT BETTER. BASED ON THIS FACT ALONE, I WOULD NEVER EVER ALLOW THIS PERSON TO STAY IN MY HOME. VERY VERY DECEPTIVE. NOT TO MENTION THEY WERE VERY FILTY AND DAMAGED MY SOFA.

A refrigerator required maintenance just prior to this guest’s stay, and I was prompt in ordering parts to take care of the problem. I was also very clear in explaining the situation and notified her that the fridge was under maintenance beforehand. In the meantime, there was another large fridge available for the guest to use on the first floor along with a bar fridge, which is equivalent to half of the large fridge, on the second floor. There is absolutely no reason why I should need to spend $2,000 to purchase an entirely new refrigerator when it only needed a regular repair. She also threw away my personal spices without asking if this was okay beforehand. Lastly, this guest contacted me excessively through email and phone with insignificant questions. I communicate very well and am glad to answer any questions that are important to your stay, but these questions were so minuscule and so frequent that it was disrespectful to my time.

I would never rent to this person again for the following reasons: 1. Over 60 days I received over 30 VRBO emails from him about every small little thing that has no relevance to enjoying a beautiful vacation in a $7 million dollar home in sunny Coronado, California. 2. He was rude and abusive to my personal assistant who communicated with him by telephone and email. One of my assistants requested to not have to speak with him anymore and as a result, I had to have another assistant speak with him. 3. My pool company registered multiple complaints about his abusive behavior and constantly badgering them while they were working. 4. The caretaker of my home refused to go to my home except for the outside to check on my home because of his very unfriendly behavior. 5. My carpets were completely destroyed and my carpet/upholstery company spent 3 days in my home and they still could not get all the soiling out. 6. Matt may try to lure another homeowner in by renting for a long non high demand period but wanting a discount, but don’t fall for his tactic. I am sorry to say but since he rented during a low demand period (march and April) I fell for his tactic. Never again. We just completed a $100,000 Master Bath renovation which Mr. Kataoka was the beneficary of. Additionally we just completed installing an entirely new landscape lighting system and irrigation system. This is a $7 million home and Mr. Kataoka did not care for or respect our home. In a nutshell, I would not rent to this renter ever again under any circumstance. Scott B.

Sally and her family were a real joy to have stay in our home. They respected all of our personal items with the utmost of care. Whenever there was an issue that needed to be taken care of, I would dispatch my caretaker and others. I am very selective in who I have in my home because we’ve put a lot of money in our home and it’s a $7 million dollar home. Sally a d her family was a five star guest who I would love to ha e in my home again.

Marissa rented my home along with 6 of her teenage and 20's friends. All they did was drink every night,behaved irresponsibly and trashed my lovely $6.5 million dollar home. I will never rent my home to young, single irresponsible people again. She wrote a glowing review right after her stay but decided to change it because her credit card company would not refund her deposit. I was able to demonstrate to her credit card company that I was in compliance with the terms of the lease and her deposit was properly retained by me because of the significant damage she and her teenage friends did to my home. At this point, I do not want anything to do with this person ever again. I take in my home and everyone who stays at my home absolutely loves it.
