Gulf Coast Vacations

“The property and house were absolutely perfect! We would definitely rent again.”

“Very cute place on the beach.”

“Great place close to the beach.”

“Overall it was a nice place to stay. Right on the beach. I rated four stars simply because the bed was very uncomfortable.”

“The beach was lovely and private. The buildings are old, but well maintained. This unit had been updated. It is tight but livable. The screened porch is very warm even when opened up and difficult to use. Most of the furniture is uncomfortable, with a bar height table in front of the sofa. The unit was dusty and the floors were not clean at all, I tried to clean them, but with a little stiffer there was no way. The pots and pans were disgustingly dirty, as if no one had cleaned them after burning stuff in them. We managed with one pot and one skillet. Even the cheap plastic spatula was broken. Every time the a/c kicked on there was a bang and then the ceiling fan in the bedroom would become noisy. We realized after a few nights it was awakening us through the night. The TV in on the porch required us to sign into a WM acct to use it. (Could be user also) This is really a great location and offers peace and quiet w/ great proximity to the beach. Everyone staying here was friendly.”

“The rental was clean and close to everything. There was an issue with a strong odor in the rental. I asked for a diffuser or ozone machine and never had anyone come check or bring anything. So that was disappointing. The odor was very strong and did not dissipate as the week went on. Also the bathroom does not have a plugin and there are no mirrors in the rental except a small one in the bathroom which made it impossible to get ready if using a blow dryer or curling iron. The door only has 1 lock which is the keypad. It would feel a lot safer if the door had a deadbolt or chain. They supply a coffee maker. It would be nice if they supplied a couple k-cups.”

“Place overall was nice - quick walk to the beach, easy access to pool, loved the local trolly system, and we loved having two full baths in the place. There were some small things around the apartment that didn’t feel like they had thought of every thing, especially for the price paid (no sugar, creamer or basic coffee or kcups to go with coffee maker for example). The most alarming part was that we switched our departure day by one day later and apparently their system didn’t communicate that correctly, so we came back from breakfast one morning alarmed that our unit door was open and a man was inside with a woman standing out front. I think the worst part of that experience is that no one from the company reached out to apologize to us or explain what happened. The guy that came to clean apologized, but unless we had encountered him 15 min later outside as we left to head to the beach, we wouldn’t have known why they were dispatched. A formal apology would’ve been appreciated.”

“We stayed here and overall had a mixed experience. The location is nice and very close to the beach, which we appreciated. During our stay, I was waking up with multiple bites, which was concerning and impacted our comfort. We didn’t identify the cause until the last night, when we saw several bugs in the bathroom while showering and promptly notified the host via message with photos and video proof. My biggest concern was the lack of responsiveness and care in communication. It took a significant amount of time to receive a response, and we only heard back consistently after involving Airbnb. While we did receive a partial refund, the delay and overall handling of the situation were disappointing. I felt very dismissed and that they did not care. I would recommend that the host address both pest control and guest communication to improve future stays.”

“Bathroom shower dirty Stained rugs Air conditioning filter not changed in 3 years. Filthy Bathroom towel rack broken Musty smell.”

“The house itself was clean, but the lanai was filthy. The patio table needed cleaning. It was not sunny as advertised unless you went out to the "patio". The pool heater wasn't working and needed replaced, but we received a minimal refund after it was fixed. The headboard in the bedroom with the queen bed is falling apart.”
