Our family chose this rental for a beach weekend getaway. Upon check-in, we faced our first issue, which should have forecast what was to come. The receptionist did not have any record of our name or reservation information. We had to show confirmation of our reservation and that we paid for the weekend. After several minutes of back and forth, we were finally given keys to access our rental. We had a funny feeling about everything but decided to go to our room anyway. Once we entered our room, we were greeted with the smell of trash, unmade beds, towels scattered all over the floor, sandy beach equipment everywhere, and old food in refrigerator. After contacting the front desk, it was revealed that a cleaning service was never hired to clean the space after former renters had left 3 days prior. To the receptionist’s credit, she was able to finally get the owner on the phone and promptly get a cleaning crew to do a quick session. The cleaning crew that arrived was super helpful & did their best. They did a great job, it was still challenging to not question the cleanliness of everything in the condo during our stay. Another issue we faced was that the VRBO listing stated that the pool was renovated as of 3/2024. However, the pool was still under construction and not available for use (we stayed in 5/2024). Much of the back of the building was blocked off by a chain-link fence. This was very disappointing. Everything was a lie.
