When I first saw this rental, I messaged the owner and asked about the bedroom accommodations. He said the master has a big bed and then the other two bedrooms have bunk beds. I said I don’t think that is going to work and I would check around. He told me he could put a full or queen size bed in one of the rooms. I thank him and booked the condo.
Something came up and I was not able to go. But my bf and the other 2 couples still went.
I have rented VRBO numerous times and have always been very pleased, most of the time they are better than I thought.
Not this time! They told me their were ants everywhere and when they got there the sink had a lot of food sitting in the drain. And the ants seemed to be coming or attracted to that. One of the woman said she spent the better part of the morning cleaning up.
He did NOT remove the one set of bunk beds as he has indicated. Very upsetting, because I reassured everyone that they would have “big” beds and my bf and I would take the bunk beds. You go on vacation to reconnect with your partner, bunk beds ummm no!
It had 2 bathrooms as described, but the main bathroom had no water pressure and everyone was forced to use the master bedroom bathroom. 1 man did shower in the main bathroom and said the tub did not drain either.
My bf called the owner who said, ya I know I have had that problem for 2 years and just can’t seem to get it fixed! Wow seriously??? If he knew he should have listed it on his description of property. Main bathroom has a low water pressure but is still usable.
They did say the property was in a very nice location, it was very roomy, and 3 couples had plenty of room to move about.
They grilled out one night and they said the grill looked like it was ready for the scrap yard.
Another thing I thought odd was that he called them one day and said did my cleaning lady leave a big set of keys in your condo today? There was no indication that they would have a cleaning service during our stay. So to have someone in the condo when we didn’t know that was bothersome.
Overall we will not stay there again. We all love put-in-bay and go once a year.
As I said VRBO has never let me down. I have talked friends into using it and they all love it.
I just hope I don’t get Leary about booking with them again.
Just be upfront about yout property. We have been told things about places and have said ya I can live with that. And still booked. No surprises!!!
