Not an accurate listing regarding amenities

I'll start with the negative...took my shoes off at the door when I got there. 20 minutes later before getting into bed I had to wash my feet as the floor was filthy. Next day before I could let the others know, my partner had white socks on that ended up disgustingly dirty. We all walked around with shoes on from that point....from the minute we got out of bed. Next was the fact the listing said there was a gym (or fitness room, I can't remember). My daughter is prepping for a body building show and the fact we thought there was a gym is what brought us to this property. Only to find out there was not one. Lastly, the pool guy came the morning after we arrived and "turned" on the pool. Nice for swimming initially, but that evening we went to go in the pool. The water was 98 degrees. Way too hot to swim (we were there May 16-18). The listing says in the winter you need to pay to have the pool heated. Does that mean in spring/summer you need to pay to have it cool? So disappointed we couldn't swim. Management company was not as readily available as the info in the house statedThe positive is the place was roomy and in a nice neighborhood, close enough for the wedding we were attending. They had toiletries for us and fully equipped kitchen. Really nice place if I wasn't so grossed out by the floor. Made me question if anything else wasn't cleaned (and we just didn't know)

Green Pool/Don't believe the pictures

The pictures are not a true reflection of the home condition. During my stay I encounter that walls throughout the home had scuff marks, chips out of the paint, the flooring had gaps of 1/4" or more between the pieces of laminate, every threshold had blue painter's tape on it to hold down the threshold, a cabinet door was hanging on one hinge and the coffee maker contained old coffee grounds which had mole on it. However, the biggest issue was the pool. On the first day, the pool was green. I immediately contained Gulf Coast Rental as I was instructed in the check in instructions. After two visits over 4 days from the pool guy it was cleaner but the amount of chemicals that were added to the pool was overpowering. They stated it was "100% safe to get in". But there was still remnants of green on the walls of the pool and the corners. I did get a broom and scrubbed the green and it was coming off. With have children on my vacation there was no way I would allow my kids to play in that. During my entire stay I did have to follow up several times to ensure this was being addressed. With 2 days left of my Florida vacation, we left the home and found other accommodations. If you don’t care about having a pool you can use, then some of the other pieces might be acceptable.

Pool issues

To start off this is advertised as two king beds. It is not. It is one king bed and one queen bed. Second We requested the hot tub to be heated before we arrived and paid extra and it was not turned on. We had issues the entire week with the hot tub and the pool. The pool pump was not running and turned green instantly so we could not use it even though we paid extra to have it heated. We were unable to get in the pool even once due to the conditions. We were told maintenance would be by but never told when and on the last weekend We came back and it smelled like bleach or chlorine and the pool moss was vacuumed out however I have no idea if it was safe to swim. Every time maintenance would come by, the hot tub was also turned off, We spoke on the phone as well as via text to the management company and they were not consistent with what was wrong. They had my husband trying to fix things which we shouldn't have been doing because we were on vacation trying to relax not fix the property. We booked this home specifically, so we had a pool and hot tub to enjoy but we were unable to use it the entire time. We were given two rolls of toilet paper, no laundry soap to wash the towels & no hand soap. It could be a nice house but I do not recommend until they fix the issues. For the price we paid we should have gone somewhere else. The property management company made a note to talk to me about compensation for our lack of use of the pool and hot tub but they never followed through.

The house was clean but the pool and hot tub heater did not work. Every morning at 6:15am the hot tub would make a lot of noise and turn on with no heat and run for 12 hours. Did not get what I paid for. If you are thinking about renting this home get a guarantee that pool and hot tub works.

Nice Family Hone with a few issues.

Location is good with plenty of restaurants and shops in the area. Wally World 4minutes away for groceries. What made the home stick out was hot tub with the pool. Hot tub was broken with a faulty heat pump. we later found out the mngt co was notified in December about it but never fixed it. More importantly , the site does not inform the buyer of this. If the mngt company takes care of it for us I will update. Killed 5 cockroaches but it is Florida and by no means is the home unclean. Likely needs an exterminator treatment is all. Ample cooking supplies and linens. Remotes had a few issues but one worked for 2 of the 3 tv’s. Overall good deal for a traveling family but hot tub issue without disclosure is troublesome.

Summer Family Weekend

This house fit in our price range for they area we were searching and more than met our expectations. The home was larger than expected. We enjoyed the 2 living rooms, kitchen and dining space and bedrooms. The king size beds were the most comfortable I have ever slept in at a rental. So much so that I may purchase this brand for home! The pool area was well maintained and a nice place to hang out with family. Everyone enjoyed swimming each day. We played games at the table while it rained and it was very relaxing.

WOULD NOT RECCOMMEND THIS RENTAL COMPANY

I would not recommend this vacation rental company. While the house itself was clean, there were many other issues. I also spent most of our vacation in communication with the rental company. To start, the previous guests trash was left out in the garage. It was starting to smell the first day we arrived, and I messaged the rental company to remove it. They said they would have someone come collect it. By the end of our stay, the garbage was still in the garage, and the whole house smelled of trash. We were also uniformed about how the pool was heated. The pool is only heated late morning-early afternoon, which never allows it to warm up. The pool was never above 75 degrees for our entire stay. The hot tub was also only 75 degrees, and was never heated warmer, as you would assume a hot tub would be warmer than the pool water. We contacted them about this, and the maintenance person told us the heater was broken. They never came back to fix it, even though we were told it was fixed, which was clearly untrue. We have not received any money back, and have not received money back for the pool not being heated, when that was an extra fee. Although we called and texted throughout our stay, our needs were not met, and changes were not made to help our experience. I would not recommend booking through this rental company again.

Pool not as advertised.

We booked this house due to heated pool. The pool is not heated unless you pay extra. I would have gladly paid extra if i had known this beforehand. The rental company told us there would be another fee to turn the heat and spa on after check in and it wouldnt be warm by the time we left. That needs to be clear in the listing. We chose this house specifically because of the "heated pool" as I had 2 eleven year old boys to entertain. Also the garbage in the garage was over flowing and stunk terrible. We had no where to go with our trash. The handles and door jams need a good cleaning. There is grime built up and pretty gross. The beds and linens were clean and comfy. The house is plenty big and lot's of space. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies. Plenty of towels. Seems like the homeowners are great but their rental and cleaning company is less than desired.

Nice place, but don't expect customer service

The house was exactly as it is posted, in a nice area, conveniently located close to places to eat and grocestores. It's a nice place to stay and very clean. We called about where the jacuzzi "remote", indicated by the ules of the property, was located, but no one could tell us where to find it. We figured it out on our own. We also called to get the jacuzzi heated, but no one came to turn it on, nor did the 'jacuzzi repairman' show up yo fix it, as the property management believed it was a repair issue. They did refund the price of the heating to us. Overall it's worth the price to stay, but don't expect help from property management.

Our stay was okay

Property size was a good fit for our family. We found it to be very dirty (such as ceiling fans & window treatments, floors near baseboards etc) and needs a deep clean. Some of our issues: glass turntable for microwave is missing, no screen on the slider doors, numerous lightbulbs burned out and some missing completely, towels were worn and white ones were grossly stained. All mattresses were well beyond useful life and uncomfortable. There wasn’t a control for the hot tub so we paid for pool heat but couldn’t use the hot tub our entire stay. Lastly but most importantly, the tile surface outside the slider is extremely slippery when wet. Our party slipped on it several time and our 7 year old grandson fell! We had to lay a towel down to keep ourselves safe. You at the very least need to put down an outdoor rug. Would not recommend this rental as it is currently.

Rental from hell

If anything could go wrong it did . We were not sure if we should go through with this rental because of many negative reviews, but we were assured multiple times by the property management that we have nothing to worry about , they promised much but did not deliver. First of all, we had to call multiple times to get the codes to the place, and they didn't send until few minutes to “check in time” 4pm. When we got there the place was filthy dirty , an inch thick dust, one of the bedrooms had torn out carpet. Nails on the floors. We had to tell our kids to keep their shoes on! Master bedroom had no lights, they were burnt out, dirty used sheets with hair! and dirt! and navy dark towels with white stains on them from soap or toothpaste, obviously never washed, refrigerator has leftover food stains and crumbs , costumer service person told us we are lying and the place is clean she was ignorant and rude and told us not to make up stuff , we had to send her dozens of pictures for her to believe that the place is not cleaned and it hasn’t been cleaned from previous people, the pool area was very dirty and the pool itself as well! After the BAD review’s we read we made sure to ask and triple check, in app and on the phone with live person about the cleanliness and POOL! We paid extra to have it warm, and LITERALLY said it was one of the most important things! Guess what!!! the bad reviews were correct! Pool was cold, the spa/pool remote did not work. After an hour on the phone with them and 57 pictures they said cleaners and pool guy will come. Cleaners did showed up and we had to leave the house with our 5 kids until 11pm. “This is after long flight and not unpacking” They promised a pool guy will come out the next day… it never happened. So again with lots of stress and time and many calls and messages with the property manager’s… “yes many different people”. I asked for the pool box code. So i can manually bypass the control remote myself! Which they finally gave. (Im Not a pool guy) but after I opened the box pool was set to service mode. Thats why remote and pool heat did not work… it took two more days to get the pool heated!! So half of our trip was gone. And day 4 it read a message “filter error” and heater was turned off again. So we had 1.5 days with the pool out of our 7day stay. Back to the house part lots of ants! No supplies. 6 towels total had to buy our own! Absolutely no care for customers!!!!
