Family getaway
It is refreshing to find a wonderful property that allows your pets. We had a great view over looking the water and everything was very clean. The only improvements I would suggest would be to have a non-smoking facility and also to allow your pets to come Out with you to the dock. Maybe that sounds silly but that was important for us. Smoking neighbors is unfortunate and is why I would recommend a non smoking facility

Beautiful Bay View, Very Strict Pet Rules
The unit has nice upgrades in bath, kitchen and flooring. The balcony view is perfect for relaxation while gazing at the bay and taking in sunsets. One recommendation is to improve cooling of master bedroom. We found it difficult to sleep at night even keeping window shades closed during the day and lowering the thermostat. Also was unable to find a blow dryer which was a disappointment because I didn't pack one. Lastly, I would not consider this property "pet friendly". It is more accurately "pet tolerate." This is no fault of this unit's owner however I think it is worth mentioning. I was approached by what I assume to be owners of another unit and rudely told where my dog can and cannot set foot. Quite shocking.

Description not accurate. Old and dirty. Not truly pet friendly.
I have rented numerous places on VRBO and never had to leave a bad review. I am completely baffled at the good reviews left previous to me stay. Hosteeva was not responsive to messages prior to the check in date. Upon walking in to the unit there was a terrible smell, old and moldy. The condition of the carpet was the very first thing that stood out to me and likely the cause of the smell. I felt as if I had walked into a room at the Days Inn in 1982. The tile grout in the kitchen and the carpet appear to be original to the unit. Parking passes are required and strictly enforced although this is not communicated in the property details. The biggest issue we had was the fact that the property details lost this unit as allowing pets. However, within 5 minutes of our arrival as we were unloading our car I was tapped on the shoulder by a condo owner and told the dogs cannot relive themselves on the condo property at all (even though the multiple signs all over the property state “No pets allowed on Lagoon side of building.” She said it was strictly enforced. Once we got up to the unit and opened the door to the smell I immediately checked the previous reviews to see if I had missed something. Indeed I had missed the reviewer who stated the parking pass was required. So down to the condo office I went to inquire. Upon my arrival at this on site office they already knew I was the owner of the dog that had been seen in the parking lot. I was made to sign an agreement that my dog wouldn’t relieve itself on their property and listed the fines for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd offense! Again none of this was disclosed in the property details or at any time during the rental process with Hosteeva. The office manager told me they ask pet owners to physically pick up their pet and hold it until they get across the street and off property before you put it down in order to keep it from relieving itself on the condo property. Had I known all of this I would never have rented this property. The office managers walk around all day watching what the renters do. I will admit the view was absolutely amazing but could not be enjoyed from the balcony because once it rained the balcony had standing water on it all day. The dock pictured is off limits and only owners can access it. The shower knock fell off in my hands. The popcorn ceiling is flaking off. The 2 chairs pictured are old and the arms are stained brown from sweat. I will be reporting this listing to VRBO.
