One word, problematic. First off, the property owner gave us pricing that did not reflect what we paid on the VRBO site. We stayed at this property for 6 weeks. The property is advertised as pet friendly. However, the fence is in terrible shape and we ended up having to repair it in multiple spots so our pets could not get out of the backyard – furthermore the neighbor dogs were vicious. Next, there were no cleaning supplies for outdoor use – no broom, yard utensils, shovel, rake, etc. Nothing to clean up after pets and nothing to clean up from pets walking onto the lanai (dirt, sand, etc). The yard is definitely not safe for pets (especially small pets that can fit through a broken fence). When we arrived at the property, there were 6 screens on the lanai that were broken. The landlord did have a repair person come about a week into our stay. They fixed 5 of the screens. Upon leaving the property, the landlord is holding us responsible for the 1 screen that had already been damaged before our arrival. The pool temperature was restricted to 82 degrees. 82 degrees might sound warm but believe me it is not. We rented this property with a pool so that we could use it. The landlord said (after the fact) that we could have asked how much it would cost to increase the pool temperature – something that we found ludicrous and didn’t even realize was negotiable.
Inside: You will have to do dishes every day – the kitchen is not furnished well. Next, there was a clogged kitchen sink. We attempted to fix ourselves (even bought a plunger) and the maintenance person ended up coming and told us they’d have to have a plumber come – the plumber never came so we dealt with the clogged and unsanitary sink for 6 weeks. Next, the toilet in the guest bathroom leaked onto the floor. This was addressed with management and nothing was repaired – we ended up not being able to utilize that bathroom during our 6 week stay. Next, the landlord made us pay for a house cleaner and charged us $300 (ok) – the house cleaner came 5 weeks into our 6 week stay. She came with no cleaning supplies/products. She ended up cleaning with our cleaning supplies that we brought ourselves!! The landlord definitely took advantage of us and ended up charging us a $400 security deposit after we left the property due to the damage she claims our pets did. We are extremely diligent and responsible pet owners. We do not recommend this property to anyone.
