We rented this home for a family vacation and were very disappointed by both the condition of the property and the owner's lack of communication.Within two hours of check-in, I sent Raj a detailed message through VRBO outlining numerous concerns. After receiving no meaningful response, I had to involve VRBO to get assistance.The home appears to have been beautiful at one time, but it is now showing significant signs of neglect. We found blood on a futon, stained bedding, dirty items that needed cleaning before use, a dirty pack-and-play, worn towels, numerous burned-out light bulbs, broken cabinet doors and hinges, damaged floor tiles, a broken drain cover, and landscaping that is now mostly dirt despite photos showing grass.Several advertised amenities were missing, most notably the hot tub. Most concerning, were multiple smoke detectors had been removed, with wires left hanging from the ceiling.When VRBO finally reached Raj, he claimed he never saw our message. His proposed solution was to refund only the final night if we vacated within three hours, despite our group consisting of 14 people, including several young children.Raj eventually refunded 500, and VRBO provided additional compensation after reviewing the situation. While I appreciate that effort, it came only after escalation.Future guests should ask for current photos and carefully evaluate recent reviews. The listing does not accurately reflect the property's current condition.
