Disliked: Listing accuracy
The house itself is great and well equipped. The golf cart and bikes are very convenient, especially since the house is on the other side of town from the beach club. The reason we are only giving three stars is the fact that we were asked by the host to pay an additional 275 two days prior to our stay. The host explained that this was to cover an increase in prices for the amenities. However, when we booked the rental, it was advertised as the price including access to all the amenities. The house also could benefit from some maintenance and a deep clean, especially in the kitchen.

Thank you for your feedback. I was genuinely surprised by this review, as I had explained the additional costs in detail several weeks before your arrival, including the extra guest fee and the increased 2026 amenity band fees required by WaterColor. I also provided the HOA receipt showing the increase. Unfortunately, I did not receive a response until just before your stay.
During our later conversation, you acknowledged that the amenity fee increase was outside of my control as the homeowner and stated that you wanted to speak with VRBO after seeing the receipt. You also apologized once you realized the charge came directly from the HOA.
For that reason, I was especially surprised to later receive a 3-star review based largely on those same fees. Throughout your stay, all communication from your group was positive. You repeatedly shared how much you enjoyed the home and how well it worked for your family, and no concerns were raised during the visit.
The home had also been deep cleaned after the busy spring break season prior to your arrival. After checkout, housekeeping actually had to spend additional time cleaning because of excessive hair left throughout the home, including inside drawers, and we chose not to charge your group for the extra cleaning.
We always strive to provide an excellent experience & appreciate constructive feedback. However, I do feel it is important to clarify that the fees referenced were disclosed in advance, documented, & beyond our control.
Beautiful home with lots of space for our families! This was one of the most relaxing vacations ever and it was due to the comfort of the home and the vibe of the area. This place is huge and everyone had their own space and a great living/dining area to visit together. Loved it! The owner was super patient and kind. 10 out of 10.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We enjoyed hosting you, and are very appreciative of the trust and consideration for our home during your family vacation. We hope you will come again another time!
Wonderful stay and a great host. We enjoyed every minute staying at this house and made full use of all of the WaterColor amenities. The golf cart and bicycles especially came in handy and made trips to the Beach Club almost as enjoyable as time in the water. We will definitely be back!
Thank you for staying with us! We are glad you enjoyed your trip to Watercolor! We appreciate you choosing our home for your vacation, and wish you all the best!
This home is perfect for a family vacation to the beach. The owner was very communicative and the property looked exactly like the pictures. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and we loved being open to the greenbelt for kids to play.
This home was perfect for our large family. The golf cart was the big hit of the week - and it was so nice that everything was golf cart accessible. Loved the king sized beds and bunk rooms.

About the host
Hosted by Kathryn Sneed
I’m a busy dentist, mom, wife and also a CEO of three busy companies. I LOVE Watercolor, FL, and consider this home to be my “Happy Place”. I haven’t been able to find a management company that keeps it quite the way I want it to be, so I have taken the reins and have decided to rent it out ourselves. I am obsessed with a clean house and high quality customer service, and will make sure the home has everything you need to have an AWESOME, stress free, clean and comfortable vacation!
