Swansboro stay

1. Great room. 2. The bar/grill downstairs from room was excellent. 3. I would suggest a second chair be added to the room 4. Instructions for the coffee maker would be helpful. 5, Didn't know where to take the trash. 6. We would stay there again.

There were dead and alive bugs on the floor when we arrived at 11 Pm, no one from the office replied when needed, when they did it was only through messaging. We stayed at another location. Unfortunately we had to involve VRBO management to help resolve the issues. To this day the Property company has never called us. A simple phone call could have resolved the problem. VRBO attempted to contact the property company requesting a full refund and they ignored them. Be careful...
