Pluses and minuses. For the positive: Jaime was very responsive to our request allowing us to check-in early, premises were satisfactory cleaned. Sufficient amount of toiletries and lines readily available. Washer/dryer, AC and dishwasher all worked well. Convenient location to greater Sarasota area. Internet and TV worked well. Areas for improvement: within an hour of checking in we realized there was no hot water to the kitchen sink, Jaime confirmed via phone that there was only cold water to the kitchen sink. We cook most of our meals so that was challenging for a 25 day stay. The last 5 days of our stay temperatures dropped down in the 40âs at night and unfortunately the heat didnât work. In the description it states âwaterfront vacation homeâ It is NOT waterfront. It also states a private club and we saw it but it is fenced and locked so there was no access. The home and its furnishings are rather dated and the interior could use a deep cleaning. Unfortunately, we would not recommend staying here.
Home was no where near what other folks have left reviews for it.Animal in the attic at night, other than the kitchen & bathrooms the home is in disrepair.Trip hazard when exiting through the sliderâs.Cockroaches and other insects in the home.Furnishings look like they were purchased at a second hand store.No hot water for days.The hosts answer to our issues wasâ If you didnât like the property why didnât you just leave.âWorst experience we have ever had renting a property!The host complained about the fact that he had to spend 900 dollars for a new water heater.My wife told him thatâs the cost of doing business.As far as a beautiful vacation house, I wouldnât go that far.We were locked out of the home on three separate occasions and ultimately we were requested to change the batteries in the electronic door locks.Side door is in the carport and the host said he never told us to use that door.Very poor host!When we reported all the issues to VRBO, the host called us and when we tried to talk to him he told us to listen to him. He just wanted to argue.Canât say much else about the property as well as the host.VRBO should check these properties on a random basis.
My husband and I stayed here this past week with our two dogs. The house was pretty equipped with everything needed. The fenced in back yard was a plus along with the back yard seating/lights. The two issues of our entire stay was that the master shower drain was clogged so there was standing water in the shower while showering. Second, we had an issue with the keypad our entire stay even after changing the batteries out. This was very frustrating. The door finally unlocked after 4-6 times of putting the code in.This house is within a 20 minutes drive to three different beaches
A great location for beaches, shopping, and restaurants. The house was perfect and spacious. Loves having a big kitchen, and being able to have a back yard with a place to relax for a cup of coffee or a cocktail. Bathrooms were wonderful and spacious. We will definitely make this house our annual vacation spot. Definitely recommend staying here! Plus the host was very friendly and accommodating. This was our first time renting a house, and what a positive experience.
We loved this house and neighborhood. The fully enclosed yard and covered patio was perfect for us and our mini doodles. The house was equipped with everything we needed. It was a quiet neighborhood. The property mgr/owner was very responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely stay again at this location.
The kitchen was well equipped. The bed was comfortable. The yard is perfect for your four legged love! Big, totally fenced in with a beautiful, covered sitting area.Quiet neighborhood.I would stay there again
This rental felt like home! Kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable. Fenced yard was great for our dog and for gathering with folks. A very convenient, safe and walkable neighborhood. I would definitely stay again! The sunken dining room is a trip hazard, but no other issues.
