Sunny Days Vacation Rentals

“Positives: this is a gorgeous property which is even prettier IRL than the listing pics. We loved the views from every window, excellent floor plan, amazing kitchen, and beautiful bathrooms. Deck and hot tub were great. Central location to so many things in Ventura County. Neighbors are friendly. Negatives: we had no hot water when we arrived that evening, and it turns out the water heater had never been turned on. Frustrating that the host asked me to go outside in the dark and climb up a hill to fix it. Our bedding was also smelly/dirty, making my asthma act up until we washed it and vacuumed the floor. Hosts responded to my complaints with an apology, but didn’t go beyond that.”

“quite literally the loudest place I’ve ever stayed. and I stayed in Dublin on St. Patties Day! If you have any interest in sleeping I don’t recommend it. the noise coming from the bar across the street was unbelievable. people hooting and hollering/music blaring until 2:30 am. I called the cops and filed a noise complaint- it was that bad! I bought ear plugs at Walmart the next morning. I was also pretty turned off that they wouldn’t let me check in 30 minutes early. There’s no way they were still cleaning it as I walked around the property at 3:40 to look for my room and no one was there. also the instructions to the Travis room are wrong. Keypad is finicky / code wouldn’t work half the time. Also the wifi didn’t work!”

“The space had an odor, this could have been from no guests being at the property for some time and extreme heat. When we arrived the house was smelly and stuffy. The house layout is nice, kitchen was clean and even no dishwasher that didn't bother us. What did bother us was the CONSTANT bathroom light going off at FULL BRIGHTNESS at any day or time triggered by a sensor. The master bedroom has MAJOR electrical issues, if you use any plugs it causes either the TV to turn off or the fan you need to run, or anything you have plugged in. The bathrooms were clean, the showers however have about 3 minutes of hot water with terrible water pressure. If you have more than 2 guests in this home, you better shower FAST, or else there is no hot water in the entire home for hours. A hot shower should be the minimum in hospitality. I would not return to this property or stay here until the items above are fixed!”

“I would not stay here again or recommend it. It’s clear from reading past reviews that they do not take them seriously and make necessary changes. 1. Cleanliness: The first major problem was cleanliness. The outdoor furniture was covered in cobwebs both in the front and the back of the house. The outdoor couch and living room couch were both dirty and stained. There were cobwebs in the living room where the walls meet the ceiling. There were spider webs around the window seals when opened. Bath mat was stained and dirty to start with. 2. Lack of A/C: The advertising stated there was no air conditioning at this property, so I accept some of the responsibility for booking it. But this really negatively affected our trip. Even though we went in October, the temperature was over 90 degrees most days. The house would get up to 87 inside so you couldn’t even sit around comfortably. We’d open all windows at night to cool it off, and it only got down to 77. Need many more fans at a minimum.”

“This location is amazing, but that’s where it ends. One bedroom was unusable due to broken screen and lack of airflow (no AC), screens were broken, no hand soap in the bathrooms (empty bottle), AC in master bedroom wasn’t installed correctly (large gap in window), laundry detergent was missing, and both bed frames appeared to be broken. This is a 1960s apartment building, which inside is renovated, but lacks the amenities I was expecting. I had to move the mattress to the living space and set up a fan in the porch area to even sleep. The pictures are all of the outside areas, which were great, but I should have known better. Pay a little more and rent somewhere else. This place reeks of private equity nonsense at its finest. AVOID”

“Very spacious with many amenities, but would definitely want guests to know that the people who own the other condos in the neighborhood aren’t exactly friendly to Airbnb guests. One even mentioned how they all don’t like the guy who rents it out. Makes for a slightly oppressive stay, with light harassment and questioning from the neighbors.”

“The ocean views were beautiful, but our stay had serious issues. Parking restrictions were not disclosed, so we arranged off-site parking. A posted HOA notice stated the community’s CC&Rs do not allow short-term rentals and rentals will be phased out. We asked if there was sand beyond the rock wall and were told there was, but that was not true. A guest slipped on the beach stairs and injured their shin reaching the water. The home runs hot; our son could not use his bedroom and slept on the couch. There was only one TV, and the living-room furniture was heavily stained. There were not enough towels for the weekend without doing laundry daily. The firepit and garage opener were broken, and the jacuzzi required heating. One grill was rusted; the other flared up toward a guest. Another guest stepped on a protruding nail near the jacuzzi. Five days before check-in, we were asked to sign a separate liability and assumption-of-risk waiver, a requirement not disclosed when we booked.”

“Extremely disappointing. No advertised sofa bed, only uncomfortable sofa/chaise longue, no A/C, broken fan, badly stained carpets and chipped furniture. No shampoo/conditioner.Both screen doors were broken, so we couldn’t safely leave windows open despite the extreme heat. Balcony flooring felt soft and unsafe, two completely broken chairs. Balcony stained, old floor. We came specifically to celebrate our daughter’s 16th birthday, but the condition of the property left our children in tears and completely ruined what should have been a very special family celebration. Location was great, couldn’t possibly stay in such an awful unclean place. Sunny days did offer extra fan and a mattress to lay on the floor. And for maintenance to come on my daughter’s birthday to have workmen in rooms to attempt to fix screen doors and cleaners next day, but I’m not camping here, only thing was nice new fitted kitchen and great location. But I would have been better off sleeping on the beach!”

“This rental has a 30 day cancellation policy that many other rentals do not. I requested to change our dates to the following weekend since I was not able to cancel the rental. I was hopeful because Airbnb showed that the rental was available with a discount for the new dates I requested . However, it was declined with no reasoning. I called to find out why they have a cancellation policy while other Airbnb’s do not. They told me that is how the owner set it up. I was also told my request to change the date was denied because my request is less than 30 days and the reasoning again is because that is how the owner has it set up. I let them know I had a death in the family but they still would not let me change the dates. Most of the remotes did not work. We couldn’t get the AC to work which made the master bedroom too hot to sleep in. The house smelt like mold and the washer had mold in it. Since my stay was so short, and my drive was so long, I didn’t want to be bothered by cleaning.”

“Home was very outdated. Also, there is a noticeable “old” smell to the house. Took awhile to air it out. The rail by the jacuzzi is broken and exposed rusty nails. This is absolutely a health and safety hazard that needs to be fixed immediately. The worst part was that there was street construction taking place. There was jack hammering going on at 8am everyday. Understandably the work needs to be done, but that should have been communicated to us beforehand. This would have played a factor if we chose that house. Property owners were made aware of the work going on, the foreman told us directly that was the case.”
