Upon arrival, everything was as listed. I would have given this listing a 4-star review on that fact alone. Close to the beach, comfy beds, nice small living area, etc. Every surface was very dusty and completely green with pollen. Fine. As mentioned, you have to bring your own bedsheets, towels, paper towels, and toilet paper (which we did and left extra for the house). I went with three other friends (all women in their 30s) and we sat on the beach all day. Upon departure, you are to sweep, do dishes, take all trash out, etc. Which no problem - did that. Left the place as clean as we entered.
EXCEPT one of the women staying with us pushed the two twin beds in her room together so she had more room to sleep. She forgot to push the beds back apart before we left but I can not imagine that’s a huge issue to tend to after a renter leaves. We left happy, had fun, and enjoyed our stay.
However, the twin beds being moved is what leads to Bill blowing up my PERSONAL email in nothing short of what I would describe as an obsessive harassing barrage of unhinged emails. He asked if I pushed the beds together, I said we had & apologized that we had forgotten to push them back. He then begins to call me rude, inconsiderate, and proceeds to tell me had to make a TWO HOUR round trip to push the beds back apart (I asked why that was required when he had a cleaning crew who could easily do the same but he again called me rude, disrespectful, and incapable of owning up to my actions). He called me the “worst tenant or 2021 and one of the worst of his life”... which... no words.
Then begins another flurry of emails (again to my personal email not through the app where they are monitored) asking where the “screen magnet” is. That we had stolen/destroyed/removed it (his thoughts). I had no idea what a screen magnet is but when I googled it I saw it’s some huge magnetic screen contraption that goes over a door. I can confidently say that there was NO such thing at the condo when we arrived. Anyways, he then tells me to send him $50 for this nonexistent screen magnet which apparently we either “stole or destroyed.” Nope.
I reported harassment to VRBO and called his wife letting her know what was going in. I’m sure he will reply to this with a statement how EVERYONE else gave him 5 star reviews and that I am lying & destroyed his condo. I’m not and we didn’t. I have the emails saved & am happy to show them. My advice: rent from someone more mentally stable
