This property is literally crumbling when you walk across tile floors. Furniture in living room is uncomfortable, Dining chairs are rickety and some have sharp points that poke up and actually drew blood on one occasion. Beds are not great. Every surface is covered with knickknacks.
Cupboards are overfilled with gadgets & appliances of every variety yet lacking necessity. We had to buy wine & beer glasses and a decent can opener. Forget matching dishes, glassware or silverware...eclectic is being kind.
There is owners personal belonging in drawers & cupboards in bathroom....nothing instills confidence like lice treatment found under bath sink!!!
There was one old whisk broom but no dust pan (corrected with phone call). There was no mop and when one was brought over it was a wringer mop but with out a wringer so hand wringing only option (nasty). Then it takes DAYS to dry the mop (must dry in the sun)or else it STINKS. Large pieces of grout came out with mopping or vacuuming. Owner did send over vacuum bags when I requested. Dish washer runs but doesn't clean. Primary bath is a small room with toilet and walk in tub with shower curtain that has to be placed just so or risk soaking floor. Other bath appears to have been updated at some point.
At half the price we paid it would still be a stretch to recommend this place. The location is great. We have rented for three years on Anna Maria and love it.
Regarding manager: he did not return phone call placed before we arrived. He did answer the phone when we called for dust pan and mop, acknowledged he knows about crumbling floor.
The owner was very nice & responsive when contacted for vacuum bags and I acknowledge they get to decorate and furnish as they like. I am being as honest as possible without exaggeration here. This place is overdue for rehab & updating and that was not shown in published pictures and description on Vrbo.
