Renter Beware

This is a condensed version of what I have to say since there is a character limit. This home looks NOTHING like the photos. It is filthy. First appearance, there is outside damage to the soffits and fascia board. The outside of the property is unkempt and there is trash everywhere. Boards with exposed rusty nails. Toys that are dirty and old. Entering the property, there appears to be a black substance around almost all of the vents in the home. There is a rickety staircase leading up to the main level. Appliances appear to be over 30 years old, refrigerator has old items from previous guest and dirty to the touch. Recliner in living room broken upon arrival. Walk out to the patio, multiple boards broken, one area toward the right is unstable. No stairs going down to beach so there is a steep drop. Contractor came in the middle of our trip to install, took three days. Broken elevator that the host warned us about using. Yellowing pillows and mattress. Downstairs slide in door in one bedroom did not open. No screens in entire home, so no ventilation. Washing machine had a thick black substance around the rubber and an odor. One day we had no water, the next day we had no hot water. We expressed our displeasure. We were offered a free vacation next year not to post a review. All of us ended up getting sick after leaving, my two children got sick while we were there. My family spent a fortune on the vacation and did not have the means to leave.

Great Location

Ken is a great owner. If you need anything he will be so helpful. Love the proximity to the beach and the great quiet community with so many nature preserves and parks nearby. Too bad the turtles aren’t around this time of the year. Be surety to visit Sebastian Inlet Park about a 10 minute drive. Countryside orange grove in Vero Beach is another nice stop. Also, we were lucky to view some SpaceX launches from the deck - wow!

Quiet private beach 🏝️ area with wonderful deck ocean view!

We enjoyed a quiet stay. Most of the time there was hardly anyone else on the beach! The owner supplied many basic items to use freely if you need them. Even coffee, paper towels, napkins, plenty of T. Paper, Kleenex, and many necessities. Towels were plentiful, and a washer and dryer were also available.
