We looked specifically for a VRBO with a working pool. The majority of beachfront’s have damaged pools and decks from the hurricanes. This listing specifically listed pool as being repaired in December of 2022. The rate was high but we wanted a pool. We were told there is underground parking, which was occupied when we arrived. One of the first things we found out when we arrived on Saturday was that the pool was closed for repairs until Wednesday. Low and behold their p.a system announced on Friday at 5:30 pm the pool was open but to avoid the areas still under repair, be we were reassure that the repair guy was working hard!
The building is old, elevators were half working, toilets were slow, showers didn’t drain well, as budget as possible in the kitchen. There is a pumping room down the hall that revs up and down day and night, it’s loud and we could hear it all night. You do get used to it after 4-5 days. They are selling the unit we stayed in so I can see they are just pushing people through until it sells. Only if they had a cash in hand buyer would we have to get out part way through our stay to show the place. Generally it would be worth $150.00 a night for a place like this.
For the positive, the view from our condo was beautiful.
I did ask for a discount for our stay and was told the agent would reach out to the owner, but heard nothing.
