I will start with the GOOD things about the property. The house is beautiful, furnished very nicely with everything that you need! The kitchen has everything for home cooked meals, there's also a grill outside that was very convenient. There's a private pool that was very clean and maintained with a nice outdoor dining table in the yard and tanning chairs. We loved having the cozy back porch area to sit during late nights. Overall, house was very spacious, generally clean, and nicely remodeled.
LOCATION: PERFECT. Very easy and accessible walk to the beach. The beach chairs and umbrella are a great addition. There's a mall 4 min away and A LOT of restaurants. Publix was also very close for groceries.
I don't normally like to give bad reviews especially for a home this beautiful, but there was one thing the property may need to work on. The issue we experienced with this property was that there were cockroaches, or palmetto bugs as the locals might say. I didn't want to believe it after we saw one but they just kept showing up daily. The kitchen was full of them, and we discovered more and more throughout the first floor.
We wrote to the property manager on the VRBO website and didn't get a response, so we called the maintenance phone number and they said they would send someone over to spray the same day. We never saw anyone come, although we were gone for a period of 1.5 hrs in the evening. We still saw the cockroaches for the remainder of our stay. We called maintenance again to see if anyone actually came out, but they said they did. To me, this means either the infestation was really bad, or no one ever came out. Either way, this seems like a big issue that the property owner/manager doesn't seem to care about much. The whole family had to carefully go through each article of clothing to verify no cockroaches snuck in. It's such a shame because the rest of our stay was great!
Overall, I would come again, if the cockroach issue is resolved!
