The host was very responsive, flexible, and communicated well throughout our stay. He genuinely tried to accommodate us, which we appreciated.Unfortunately, the property itself did not fully match what was represented in the listing, particularly the outdoor area, which was one of the main reasons we chose this home. The pool had significant debris and staining, the pool skimmers were torn, several pieces of outdoor furniture were torn and unusable, and the lounge chairs and cushions were not in a condition we felt comfortable using. Because of this, we really weren’t able to enjoy the pool and outdoor space as we had planned. There were also some maintenance issues inside the home that needed attention.I think it’s important to give future guests an honest picture of our experience. While I would give the host high marks for his communication and willingness to help, the condition of the property and outdoor amenities did not reflect a five-star stay for us.With some attention to cleaning, maintenance, and making sure the property matches the photos and description in the listing, this could be a much better experience.
