Response from VrboOwner on 25 Jul, 2026
This negative review is in retaliation to an issue we had with this guest. They somehow left significant damage to a bathroom wall and fiberglass shower insert by puncturing a deep two inch gash in both. They did not communicate in anyway that there was damage; it was only to be discovered after their checkout. The wall was an easy repair but the shower insert will eventually have to be replaced which will cost well over the damage deposit. Since it was in the middle of the busy summer season, I only charged this guest for the work a contractor completed on a short term fix which I believe to be a generous solution. When made aware of this solution, this guest was dishonest and denied that they were the cause the damage and then went on to falsely claim that my house was filthy. This is a preposterous claim as I have numerous raving reviews (including the guests directly after them) appreciating the cleanliness of my home.

We enjoyed a three night stay over Memorial Day weekend. The description of the beach house was accurate, and the location truly can’t be beat. The area was very quiet with minimal traffic compared to other parts of Crystal Beach that were much more crowded. We felt comfortable letting our kids go down to the beach on their own since we had a perfect front row view from the balcony to keep an eye on them. We had four adults and six children ranging in age from 10 to 17, and there was plenty of space for all 10 of us. We would definitely stay here again.

Every year we get away for Christmas for 4 to 5 nights… This place is not disappoint! The peace and serenity from the beachfront balcony to the serene and beachy decor inside the house… It was a perfect touch! Comfortable accommodations and wonderful seating on the deck made this a perfect Christmas getaway!
