Wonderful property with close walkable beach and pool access down a beautiful trail out back. Perfect for a biking family. We brought the bikes and took them all over the island. The management company was very good to us. Highly recommended!

The property and location are amazing! Easy access to the beach and every time we went to the pool, we were the only ones there. There was a lack of communication with the security gate, as they were not provided with a guest list. It took several phone calls and messages (about 24 hours) to get that corrected. There was no internet service, which means no TV either. With poor cell service, it was a huge inconvenience with 4 small kids and a trip we were supposed to do business on as well. We were credited 100, but that seemed insufficient with the amount of inconveniences we encountered. There was also an ant issue on the top level, and the door knob to the porch fell off several times, which caused a few panics with the kids. I spoke to a few people on the island that expressed that Avari was well known for poor service.

We’re so glad to hear you loved the property and its amazing location, Jamie. Having easy access to the beach and enjoying the pool in peace sounds like a wonderful way to spend time with your family. We truly apologize for the communication issues you faced with the security gate and the internet service. We understand how frustrating that must have been, especially with little ones and business matters to attend to. Your feedback about the ant issue and the door knob is also appreciated, and we will address these concerns to ensure a better experience for future guests. We take your comments seriously, and we’re committed to improving our service. Thank you for sharing your experience with us, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future.

The automatic lock on the front door malfunctions. It needs to be replaced. It will take many tries (4-10) of their 10 digit code to unlock front door. Very frustrating.The house is very nice and a great value for Plantation. The beach and pool are very private. It is however a little walk to the beach, but Plantation has an easy access parking lot nearby. Bike paths, both main and beach on Plantation are beautiful and wonderful.The house gives you the feeling that you are living in the tree tops... 33 steps to the living room, which is good practice for climbing the lighthouse during your visit, which is downtown St. George Is., highly recommended.

During our stay we had a catastrophic plumbing failure of the third floor toilet. Multiple components failed upon flushing, leading to an incomplete flush, which overflowed the bowl, constant run into the tank due to failure of flushing components, a rotted-out connection between the tank and the bowl, which led to water pouring out from places water should not leak from, and a broken water shut off, which meant we could not turn off the water to the toilet. While, thankfully, most of the water pouring out was coming from the tank, it was mixing with toilet water that had over flowed from the bowl, leading to a black water situation that children where having to help contain. We were forced to use every towel in the house to try to contain the flood, including our own personal beach towels. When I called the number to report this emergency situation, I got an automated service that put me on hold for several minutes. When I texted through the vrbo app, I got told that they’ll pass the message along. I did figure out that they’ll app line isn’t monitored when, after reporting what was going wrong, it texted back something like, “that sounds great!” Like, what?!?!Our vacation time was cut into while we scrambled to stop the overflow and then clean it up. We had extra loads of laundry to deal with because of this. I asked about compensation, but the rental company has not responded.
