The property we stayed in was not the property we booked online. After waiting 20 minutes after our check in time the property manager called and said because of the wait she “upgraded” us to a newly renovated unit. ( Got message that access code would be sent at 4:00 check-in) This unit she moved us too was clean and functional but it was only 2 bedrooms/1 bath, no washer dryer as described in the listing and minimal towels. ( 4 bath towels, 1 handtowel and no wash towels) . Kitchen minimum stocked with only 4 of everything. When I reached out to the manager she said that none of their units had 2 baths and must be problem with Vrbo platform. Additionally, we ran into the couple staying in the original unit we booked so I think they double booked us then moved us and tried to sell it as an upgrade. This unit is not what was described and that is my main issue. It was comfortable and clean but not what was paid for.

Thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re very glad to hear that you found the home clean, comfortable, and functional, as we work hard to ensure every guest enjoys a pleasant stay. We do want to sincerely apologize again for the unexpected issue that arose with the original unit you booked. This was an unforeseen situation that was outside of our normal operations, and as soon as we became aware, we contacted you right away and offered an alternative newly renovated home so that your stay would not be disrupted. We truly appreciate your flexibility and willingness to accept that change, especially with a larger group. Regarding the layout and supplies, the replacement home is one of our newer units and we are continuing to improve its stocking levels and amenities. Your feedback about towels, kitchenware, and layout has already been shared with our team even if a guest entertain more than our typically guest count during the stay, then we would have supplies. We understand how important it is for a property to match what was originally reserved, and we regret that this situation created frustration. Please know this is not representative of our typical guest experience. The home you originally booked is actually one of our most requested and highly rated properties, and we have consistently delivered positive, seamless stays for many guests there. We value transparency, clear communication, and guest satisfaction above all, and we are always improving our listings and processes to reflect that. We truly appreciate your patience during an unusual circumstance and thank you again for staying with us.
