On the first day I woke up to water on the floor from a flooded toilet. Slipped and almost fell and hurt myself. Should have been a sign.
Then it continued with daily calls and whats app text from the home owner to turn the lights off the lights or to tell you how many visitors you had at the unit or to report on everything that you did or did not do while he and his spouse spied on you remotely from the UK. There was constant spying on everything you did while there.
Even though the unit is advertised as suitable for 6, the homeowner tried to nickle and dime for every person not on the original reservation. Then in the midst of the vacation they wanted payment for any night you had an additional guest even though you did not exceed 6. Then when we made an offer to cover the cost of the additional guest and he accepted, he changed his mind about the amount the next day and wanted payment to be made to a bank in Jamaica where you were required to stand in line for hours which I refused to do.
A screw fell out of a door knob and we simply screwed it back in after locating the screw yet his housekeeper described that as extensive damage. The sofa was riddled with holes that were covered in duct tape by the owner or his house keeper and sewn up prior to our arrival. When you sit on the cheap sofa, the fabric cracked and the housekeeper and homeowner claimed that we damaged the sofa. There was a ding in the wall that was there prior to our arrival and on the housekeeper one day claimed we damaged the wall. Vacation from hell.
And to add insult to injury even though we paid the exorbitant cost for 2 additional guest and offered to cover the minor scratches on the sofa, the owner sent us an e mail one morning advising we had till 3.pm to vacate his property even though we had 7 days remaining on our vacation and then he remotely locked us out of the unit. He also sent menacing looking men to the unit to intimidate us until we left that day
Luckily I was in a position to find alternative accomadation for my family and found alternative housing at a moments notice. All I would say to anyone who is looking to book this unit, unless you are looking for the vacation from hell and you want to be spied on with no privacy while you are on vacation, please do not rent this unit. I am taking appropriate legal action against the homeowner .Stay away from this rental.
