In need of help and homeowner does not care
When we arrived and turned on the TV the remote did not work so we drove to the store to buy new ones but still didn’t work so I called the homeowner. His voicemail said to text him which I did but 30 min. later still no call back so I just kept calling his phone over and over until he picked up, explained to him what was going on so he had me try the TV’s in the bedrooms which did work so he said he would have to call me back so my husband got down on his knees to change the channels which was ridiculous since we were to be there 5 days. The homeowner NEVER called us back but we were able to reprogram the remote 2 hours later in which I texted the homeowner again to tell him we got it working and again NEVER texted me back. Both beds were so freaking hard we slept on the couch and recliner. The stove had grease ALL over it and the coffee maker was greasy also. The cookware were few and old with rust. The front door has a big gap on the bottom and when it rained the water came in. The toilet down stairs was black inside and disgusting! Broken patio furniture. Emailed the homeowner to let him know that the shower was leaking down the wall and on to the floor and also leaking into the laundry room down below heavy, NO water pressure to even take a shower or to get the shampoo out of my hair but again he NEVER replied. We have stayed in Jamaica Beach for the pass 10 years and have never had this bad experience before so my advice is stay somewhere else!!!

Disappointed
Most of our stay was windy, rainy & miserable weather which I know is no one’s fault but Mother Nature. I had to get the laundry from the dryer downstairs bring it up fold and put towels away. The stove was in need of a good scrubbing, microwave and vent hood were very greasy. Silverware had dried food on several pieces. And on our last night there we had a visitor 🐀maybe you should rethink your cleaning crew. The laundry room looked like a junk shed & the propane grill looked unusable. This place needs a lot of TLC
