30a Seascapes Vacation Rentals

“I would like to save someone the time and money! We booked a last minute trip and were told in the description as well as the welcome letter that this place included 2 pool locations and a fitness center (even given a code for each) but after arriving and speaking to the local management office they haven't had a fitness center in 2 years! Messaging David about this, he would continue to give me a "code' to a center that doesn't exist instead of letting me know he made a mistake and there is no fitness center. Also, notes about the place. - the dishwasher smelled of sewage so bad that it literally sent me vomiting! - the couches are very dingy and dirty with noticable stains (we chose not to sit on them) - the garage has quite a bit of "amenities " like chairs and bikes and stuff but the garage it's self is covered in webs and live spiders all over the ceiling. Overall, not a comfortable stay. There is better out there and I would say keep looking for a better spot than this!”

“Unfortunately, this stay was disappointing. The location was perfect, but the unit itself felt very bare minimum compared to what we expected. It’s also located on the bottom floor, which we thought from the photo it was the top floor. In my opinion it was very well overpriced. The listing stated there was a hair dryer, but there wasn’t one in the unit. After we requested one, we were told it would arrive by 10:00 AM, but it didn’t show up until around 12:30 PM. There was hair left in the shower, a snake in the pool, and multiple issues getting into the property. The most concerning part was that a locksmith walked into our rental while I was in the shower. He apologized and said he felt bad, but it’s unclear why anyone would enter an occupied unit without notice. Communication throughout the stay was poor. The person I spoke with was inconsiderate and constantly made excuses instead of addressing the issues and keeping their word. Overall, the experience felt unprofessional.”

“I am so disappointed. David cancelled our reservation THE DAY of our stay. I was landing with my two kids and saw our AirBnB was cancelled. Needless to say, l had to scramble to find a place to stay. Do NOT book. There are so many amazing places and responsible hosts that this place is not worth the risk or the headache.”

“As soon as we got in and tried beds, they were sinking down and very uncomfortable. Furnitures were old and broken and stained, Coffee machine and microwave were dusty so I had to clean them up. Each time we contacted Mark, the host, he would not respond, so we had to contact my brother’ s host and he would get in touch with him. After 3 nights we had to cancel our room and get another room in the same building but more expensive. I do not recommend this suite at all because all in all it was dirty and uncomfortable.”

“The condo as described in the ad was not all what it was when we arrived. We arrived after the resort closed and there was no welcome packet provided to security for us to check in. This caused us over an hour to wait to figure out how to get into the condo. The only suggested offer from host was to cancel - we did not want to after driving 12 hours. When we were able to get in, there was missing floors tile, paintings barely hanging and dirty bathrooms. The pull out bed was extremely dirty, stained bedding with dirt and hair like it hadn’t been cleaned, along with the bathrooms. The pull out bed was also broken and unable to be used. Kitchen items were dirty and smelly, and dishwasher also smelled. TVs only had 1 remote causing issues with being able to watch different things in the rooms - had to go buy our own remotes, and yes I took them when we left. Overall, not great and will not book there again.”

“First we booked one location & David denied early check in saying people were there,then at 3:55 cancelled our reservation saying the AC was broken in the unit. He offered another location in which we had no choice since we had no place to stay. We would have never picked this location for the amount we paid. It was loud all night there was a pump noise going off, the tv didn't work it. We asked to go to the original place booked he said something about no refund which was confusing, we were afraid we wouldn't have a place to stay. The last day we asked for late check out he said no then when i mentioned all the issues he said we could check out at 12. Thankfully one of us was in the room, 3 people showed up at 10:15 with the same code we had into the airbnb my friend was in a towel. This was pretty concerning since she was alone with 3 people in just a towel on the other hand if she wasn't there strangers would have been in the place with all of our things. David made us feel uneasy”

“Host cancelled and I only found out because I asked if I could check in early. Then he kept asking me to cancel on my end, which Airbnb asks you not to do if host is the one cancelling. Airbnb finally had to cancel it.”

“1. Roaches 2. Bed is not as advertised. It is not fluffy, it is foam. Had to sleep on a futon and had lots of back pain. 60% of the days on this trip wasted. 3. Loud plumbing when you turn on the bathroom sink. Sounds like an automatic rifle. 4. Kitchen was dirty with crusted food on the cooking equipment. 5. Toilet loose. 6. Most issues already written in the guest book and unresolved. 6. Only amenities were the first tiny bottle. Maybe that is normal for AirBNB but I have never encountered that before. I asked all sorts of questions about the amenities since it was weird in the listing but they never explained that in our messages even though it was obvious we hadn't read the welcome packet. It was in the welcome packet, but that ended up in my spam box and never saw it. It took days and lots of frustration and wasted time till they finally explained it was in the packet. 7. Host not accommodating and did not provide any solutions. All we kept getting was I'm sorry for this and that.”

“The condo listed another name and did not say “Origins” which is where it actually was. If I would have known that from the beginning I would not have booked the unit. It’s misleading. And the floors of the unit were covered in sand even though we had not gone to the beach. Also, my feet were black from walking barefoot in the unit. The main couch was broken and when you sat on it, you sank to the floor. If you wanted to cook, there was only one mixing bowl and 4 forks and 3 spoons. The only thing that was good about this unit was the bed. I did communicate this to the manager and said we needed a vacuum cleaner and a mop. A man showed up the next day and just used a broom and a mop that didn’t clean the floors. We left after 2 nights and booked an entire week. I asked for a refund for the days we didn’t stay but of course I have never received one. Don’t stay at this unit!”

“David showed no consideration to my issues and I’m demanding a refund. I had to stay at my client house most of the nights and had to leave to go use internet at a client house or coffee shop. So I spent extra money in Lyft. Beds were horribly squeaky and they left the screws on the nightstand next to the air conditioner that belongs on the bed, dresser was discombobulated and candy in the draws, wash rags to wash my body with had a brown stains on it and they were funky. If you’re wondering why I couldn’t really complain because David didn’t pay attention to my first complaint so I felt defeated. I’m traveling for business and I don’t have time to argue with someone that I’m paying. DO BETTER DAVID YOUR SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE”
