Overpriced and worn out
The listing way oversells the house and I walked away feeling like we paid too much. It’s in need of a ton of work—seems like they spent all the budget on plastic plants and mermaids from Home Goods. Paint is peeling everywhere, inside and out. Lots of very obvious quick fixes through the home.
Upon arrival we found out that the front door wouldn’t actually stay closed because it was missing screws. To the rental agency’s credit, they fixed it quickly, but the fact that this is even an issue that we encountered is indicative of the lack of care and attention that has been given to this property.
The house was filthy (food on dishes and utensils, for example). The pool was falling apart (tiles falling off, huge disgusting stain in the middle of the pool). Multiple people cut themselves on cabinet doors throughout the week. None of the showers or baths properly drain, so you are standing in a pool when you shower. They also do not provide bath mats, a serious safety issue, especially when they barely provide enough towels—we requested them but no one ever got back to us or brought them by the home.
Check-in isn’t until 6pm or later, and you have to wait for a text the day of to let you know when you can go to the house. They cite that this is “due to their high standard of cleanliness,” which is a total joke and major inconvenience for people traveling from out of state. Plus you basically lose an entire day you’re paying for since checkout is 10am.
