Dream House by the water

The house was spotless, so very clean. Professionally decorated. Well stocked with all the items you could possibly need, including beach and pool toys. Awesome neighborhood, waking distance to the beach. Perfect house! We brought our boat and docked it next to the house for the duration of the stay. Plenty of places to explore on the boat. Trailer parking is tight, so plan ahead. Narrow street and 90 degree turns to get to the house. Red tide was present at the beach and waterways. Really sad to see. Fishing was not possible. We chose not to bathe at the beach. Most people did not seemed to mind.

Outdoor oasis!

Our family really enjoyed our stay and would come back! The backyard is an oasis, with something for everyone! The pool and hot tub are great, and you can fish and enjoy the water views from the side yard. We even rented a boat and kept it at the house for our stay. The neighborhood is quiet and private, and it's a quick and easy walk to the beach. The property was very clean overall, which can be tough with beach rentals. The owner was very responsive too. The critique I'd have is that the kitchen is not super well appointed and is not ideal for a family that likes to cook in a lot, but it's workable. Some items were put back in cabinets and drawers by previous guests without being well cleaned, but the owner was having a deep clean done as a follow-up to the feedback to ensure things get addressed. The outdoor furniture could use some attention, and the kitchen/bathroom are in need of an update. All of this being said, you aren't staying here for the inside and you will absolutely want to spend all of your time outside!

Very nice property!

This house is just as advertised. Very clean and nicely decorated. The house had more than ample bath towels and beach towels, kitchen and bath supplies which we appreciated since we flew and couldn’t bring a lot with us. There is a nice coffee maker and ice maker. The pool is beautiful. It’s right on the canal and my daughter was also able to fish and caught two! Rods in the garage. There are beach supplies including chairs and a nice wagon. The beach is a five minute walk away. The beach was very nice and not crowded. If you want to check out a different beach which there are plenty, you will need to drive. We rented a golf cart which worked great to get around the island and get to shopping and restaurants. The only cons would be that the shower is pretty small and there is only one so it took some time for everyone to shower. We knew this going into it. The dishwasher didn’t always clean dishes very well. We sometimes had to rerun it. And the sliding door in the master jammed and was difficult to lock. Otherwise, we had a great time and really enjoyed this house!

Stefanie thank you for your review and kind words about the home. Again, I do apologize that you were unable to cancel right before your arrival with a 100% refund. Regarding the dishwasher, we have never heard of an issue from anyone, nor have we had an issue of our own. We have been by since you were there and operated it with no issues. Also the unit is clearly noted as a 2/1 so I am not sure what to say about the shower. There is an outdoor shower in the back with plenty of hot water that can be used if you are trying to speed things along. Finally, yes the sliding door is tricky if you aren’t familiar with the locking portion. I was available and nearby and in constant communication with you during your stay and would have been happy to give a tutorial on how to use it.

Home needs upkeep and problem after problem with rude homeowner

The house it self is in a good location in Bradenton Beach. However upon arrival you can tell that it needs a lot of tlc and updating. Everything is quite old and dated and needed replaced. The dishwasher needed re aligning and kept falling out upon use, we had an ant issue and found numerous small ants under the fridge, stove and bathroom. Every night we would get flying ants in the bathroom. The shower was not cleaned properly and had what looked like mold and needed to be properly cleaned. So we would use the outdoor shower instead. I have never stayed at a vrbo in which the renter didn't supply coffee or tea. The only thing we received as far as supplies was one toilet paper role and some dish soap and body washes and shampoo. One night the lock did not work upon coming back and just kept spinning. Once getting a hold of the home owner they sent someone out to fix it the next day. Then upon fixing the issue ( replacing the battery) they claimed there was nothing wrong with the lock and mentioned the inconvenience of this to my husband to send someone out for us. Pretty much accusing us of saying it was broken. Further more the pool sensor faulted one day. Meaning the pool and hot tub wouldn't heat up. The owner then said they would send someone out to fix it. We didn't hear back about it until the next evening. When someone came to fix it the following afternoon we went just under three days without use. No understanding from homeowner when asked for a refund.

This guest provided this review after she threatened to do so if I didn’t give her money. 1- she said there was ‘an ant’. This home is sprayed regularly and we immediately went to the home and could not locate a single pest. 2- she said the lock wouldn’t work. We immediately went over and again could not replicate the malfunction.. during or after her stay. 3- we accommodated a 4 hour early check in request and a 2 hour late check out request and they were happy as can be… After they left she then requested money for the multiple problems that didn’t exist and when I told her no, she provided this horrible, false review. We have reported to VRBO as these people are con artists and thrive on trying to get a vacation for free. Hosts be warned.

We had a wonderful week. It was amazing to enjoy the sunrise view of the water and be able to have a short walk to the beach as well. Best of both worlds! The pool and spa were clean and so fun. The house was clean and super comfortable. We will be back!
