I have never felt the need to leave a negative review for a VRBO location, but the state of this property that we encountered deserves publicity.
First, the good...
The property is as listed, and is beautiful, and the location is quite good.
There are no structures in the adjoining 3-4 lots, leaving a nice spot of beach to this house.
We had no trouble with AC, although the top floor is a bit warmer.
There is ample parking to keep vehicles cool, and the house itself is well appointed.
Now the bad...
The house was not ready for us at 4PM. There was still personnel there.
The cleanliness of the property was simply abysmal.
We had ants in multiple beds, and in the bathroom foraging on palmetto bugs. Off putting to say the least.
The state of the flatware, dishes and glasses was simply horrific. 80% of these items had brown filth scattered all over them. It appeared that they may not have even been washed. Several items had brown water in them still. Quickly we realized that we could not trust anything in the cabinets, and washed them ourselves.
The pool had not been properly cleaned in any way. Three of us swam in the pool and ONLY the pool (no ocean swimming). ALL THREE of us came home with painful earaches. I still cannot hear out of my right ear. This resulted in doctor and an ER visit.
We stayed at other locations nearby on this trip and had none of these issues. At this price point, this is unacceptable and I would not stay here ever again.
