The house was clean and accommodating for our family vacation. I loved that it was on the beach and had its own pool after hot evenings! It is centrally located and close to everything we wanted to do. Would definitely rent again!

There were a handful of things that were advertised on the listing that were not necessarily true, such as the garage not usable to guests as well as the fireplace. I prefer listings that truly reflect the real situation.

Thank you for staying with FunVacay. We sincerely apologize for any confusion regarding the amenities. To clarify, the fireplace in our listing is decorative only and intended for visual enjoyment, as noted in the property details and the garage is for owner use only. Thanks again for staying with us and hope you come back for another visit.

The house itself was very nice. However, the previous guest trash was still in the outside bin when we arrived. We could also not get into the house and I had a hard time getting a hold of anyone. I stayed on hold for 30 min and the code had to be reset. The elevator didn't work and we had to carry all the luggage up the stairs. However, those were minor inconveniences based on how nice the house was and all the amenities that came with the houses. There were beach towels, chairs, toys, baby items if needed. It was a beautiful house in a wonderful area. Once we finally got checked in it was a wonderful stay! We would definitely stay here again. We booked last minute so that was part of the reason not being able to get a hold of someone to get inside the house.

The property is in a prime location. The views are absolutely beautiful. There’s 2 houses on the property which I did not fully understand based on the listing. The houses are in desperate need of repairs. Doors don’t close properly. There’s a mildew smell in the house. Fence by the pool is broken. Beach chairs are rusted and broken. Sewage smell in the master of the main house was so bad we had to cover all the vents. One of the showers didn’t work. The toilets flushed very slow. I’m disappointed in this property and would not book this location again.

Hello! We were looking forward to staying here. Unfortunately, it was very much a disappointment. The rental was clean and check in was easy. There were many problems we encountered during our stay. Most notably, the pool was not working and was not repaired during our stay and the air conditioning in the main house on the floor with the 3 bedrooms DID NOT WORK!! They promised it would be fixed but during our weeklong stay they never fixed it. They had to get multiple estimates which delayed it. They brought ONE portable unit to try to cool the whole floor but it was only in one bedroom. I requested additional cooling units but was told they did not have any more.There were broken blinds, more than one overhead light that did not work in multiple bedrooms, drains that did not work in the tub, toilets that did not properly flush and at times would not flush, washing machine in the carriage house did not work so we could not wash during our stay, the dishwasher in the carriage house did not clean dishes and left standing water in the bottom after the whole wash cycle was completed.....after multiple times communicating with management there was no resolution or offer for any compensation. I am being told they will get back to me on Monday, 4/13. I am concerned, due to me being gone and in another state, they will offer nothing or do anything. I will HAPPLIY update the rating when they do. At this point I DO NOT recommend this rental nor do I recommend FUN VACAY.

We’re glad the home was clean and check-in was smooth. For clarity: Pool: Serviced by an independent vendor who confirmed the pool was clear, balanced, and safe. It remained swimmable and was fixed promptly. We do not stock black garbage bags, per photo. A/C: One floor experienced an issue. A properly sized portable AC was installed immediately. AC was repaired during your stay. Our team and a licensed vendor inspected the dishwasher, plumbing, and lighting. All were working properly. Light switches have been labeled and the dishwasher detergent holder was repaired. 1 of 2 washing machines has been replaced. 3 blinds have been replaced. The floors were recently resurfaced and closet transition strips have since been installed. Our team responded promptly and a goodwill refund was provided. For transparency, additional compensation was requested in exchange for altering the review, which we do not participate in. We remain confident in this home, which continues well received by guests

The location of the house is excellent. It is close to the beach, and this makes it easy to go back and forth to the house with kids. The house is also in great proximity to shops and restaurants. The house was clean, and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking.
