The house itself was wonderful- clean, newly renovated, on the water, easy to walk to beach. The property management company was terrible. Even after requesting the check-in information twice, we finally received a text telling us to go to office to pick up our house keys. We arrived after hours and had to wait an hour, calling the emergency number to finally get different instructions that the keys were actually at the house, in a lockbox and wait to get the number. The management company didn't follow up with us until 11:30am the following day to make sure we had gotten in the house ok. Requested the check-in/check-out information again and didn't receive it until the following day. So, 2 days after we arrived we finally got our critical information. Since our departure, we have been sent multiple requests for reviews. This is the second or third review I have submitted. I would absolutely stay at this house again but only if they went under different property management.
