I was told this Villa had everything I would need during my two month stay in The Villages -- just bring my clothes and go get some groceries! The kitchen was so pitifully furnished as to be a joke. Old, worn out skillets, pots, missing blender top, lack of microwaveable cookware, cheapest coffee pot in the world, etc, etc. The ironing board was broken and I had to call for a new one. Two of the kitchen chairs had severely damaged legs unbeknownst to me and my friend sat in one only to have the leg of the chair come out from under her. A second chair was as bad. Called management and they took away the chairs and never came back with anything to replace them. !! I never got a call from the management company as to any problems. The carpeting in the living room is filthy from being so near both the kitchen and the garage entrance.
This should be replaced with anything but carpeting !
Of one positive note, I asked that the golf cart be moved so that I could put my car into the garage. They had someone out immediately and disassembled the rear golf bag attachment so it would fit in the garage and allow space for my car.
The living room sofas were so old and out of shape as to shameful!
I also later found out from my neighbor that this had been the complaints from prior tenants of this particular Villa. What a scam !
As a retired real estate broker and property manager, I would never keep a unit like this to rent if the owners were refusing to repair and fix up the place to meet the description on their ads. Or, is this complacency on the part of the management team? Doesn't matter, it was no where up to par..
