VRBO - pros and cons
Pluses:
1. Location-convenient to the airport, town, grocery. Wonderful beach and snorkeling location.
2. Privacy- quiet and large garden full of songbirds; beautiful infinity pool and cabana with upstairs that was mostly well-maintained (leaves removed once)
3. Kitchen-ample supply of dishes and serving ware, including forks, spoons, skillets, utensils
4. Large beds, some towels
5. Bathroom tissue-good supply
Negatives:
1. Coffee-none of the coffee machines worked well; Keurig was barely functional. (Either replace it or tell guests there is not a machine there.)
2. Air conditioning-in some bedrooms was not functioning properly and not working at all in main living areas. Controls were hard to read. No cool area to gather inside in the evenings.
3. Lighting-hard to find corresponding light switches.
4. Stove-hard to light burners
5. Laundry-very small washer and no dryer, (instructions were confusing), bad location in a bathroom attached to a bedroom.
6. Soap-no bar soap in any bathrooms (or at grocery stores); dishwasher and cleaning soaps were minimal
7. Stone stairs leading down from the pool are somewhat treacherous. Highlight them better with color or place a handrail.
8. Gate needs a remote control or other easier access.
9. Mosquitos were still present in dining area under the table.
