This is a large home great for multifamily trips. Being right across from the beach is a win & the price was great. We didn't get a chance to check out the neighborhood pool unfortunately- not enough time. On 1 upstairs bedroom the doorknob comes off & the lock is on the outside of the door (scary & dangerous). The kitchen faucet needs to be tightened down. The downstairs space is neat (& clearly a closed in space that used to be open) however, the musty smell of mildew was extremely strong. In the solitary bedroom downstairs, the A/C unit was dripping onto the bed. Contacted mgmt on chat where they gave instructions for us to fix it. The way it was worded led me to believe that it was a robot responding. The drip pan was full so we dumped it. At least that stopped the drip for the weekend. We would stay here again if the moldy smell could be remedied, as it was heavy enough to induce a headache. Our 3 year old guest woke up with a cough, presumably from sleeping down there for 2 nights. Overall, neat house, great price, close to the beach- needs some attention to functional maintenence though.

Our stay would have been better if the place was like it said and showed in the description. The house has a very toxic smell when we arrived. I called to let then know I couldn't have seniors and children stay in that environment and they told me they couldn't do anything. Come to find out the house has mold downstairs where the smell is coming from. There was a chemical smell from them trying to patch up a hole in the wall and whatever repairs they tried to do the day we arrived! Why would you do repairs the day guests are to arrive? Plus you could smell a bad smell coming from the drains that are downstairs in the gameroom which by the way you do not see in the pictures, plus the twin futton that is in the pictures and description was not in the house at all. Luckily I didn't need it like I originally did or else I wouldn't of had the right accommodations for my family! It was a terrible experience the moment I opened the door and I contacted them right away to make it better and they didn't care! My family made the best of it but my son still talks about how the beach house was deceiving! It could have been nice if everything was truly taken care of but until they got out the mold and bad smells I definitely wouldn't stay there!!!!

This is the worst vrbo I have ever stayed in. My family and I left after 16 hours. The house is filled with mold. It is a health hazard and nobody should ever stay here. An overwhelming smell hits as you enter the house and it does not take much inspection to start seeing the mold on the walls. The downstairs bedroom has a dripping, condensation filled unit that has visible mold on it and on the walls. The top bunk bed in downstairs bedroom was wet from dripping condensation. The light fixtures have noticeable black type mold around them. There are legit crater sized holes in the walls in multiple locations in the house. There is so much water damage throughout the house, along the baseboards, and on the walls. The dryer door seal is caked in mold. Wet spots are visible in different rooms along the walls. Again, a complete health issue throughout this house. Yes check in was easy. During the stay, you can tell it is an AI chat bot that is responding. There is nothing to communicate to the property management team as this house should be demolished or condemned. And yes there was a cockroach near the kitchen we saw as we were leaving. A lesson to anyone, NEVER BOOK A VRBO THAT HAS ZERO REVIEWS. The reviews that were posted came after we had booked our stay. Those reviews were too nice to give anything other than 1 star, and it deserves 0.

First,caught our attention was,there was a strong smell from the 3 trash cans that was full.UNSANITARY. Smells so bad.And you can smell it from the balcony.There was one empty can but still,so gross. Flies everywhere. First floor inside,lots of mosquitoes. Balcony sofa,too old like the grill needs to be replaced. Balcony stairs rusty can/metal debris everywhere on the steps. TVs did not work until the next night after my cousin fixed the connection.Tried to message the host about the issues.Sent somebody the next day but just emptied the trash cans.Still smells so bad and flies everywhere. Dont be deceived about the 4th bedroom.It is actually connected to the game room without a door and its inside the utility room where the bed is sitting right next to washer and dryer. Host said that they will discuss issues with management company but never got back to me at least to give us a discount .Overall, i would give 1 star. We will not come back.
