Sunny Orange Stays

“The place was beautiful, but way smaller than advertised. There’s king beds in every room, but only about 1 foot of space on each side of the bed through the rooms. Sleeps 26, but 8 of those are on pullout couches in the common area, where no one is going to want to sleep due to lack of privacy. Nice pool area, but again very small with only a few feet of space on each side of the pool. Bar area is also way smaller than appears in the pictures. Also, not nearly enough parking for how many people the house holds. In addition, needs more products provided for how many people can stay… we ran out of toilet paper and trash bags very quickly.”

“We LOVED the location...so close to the beach which was beautiful and not crowded. The pool and backyard area were fantastic and was great for our large group! The house says it sleeps 18 but it doesn't...sleeps 12 comfortably and 16 people with 2 couches pulled out. If you stay here, there are no extras like most Air b&b's we've stayed in...no spices, cleaners, trash bags, 1 dishwasher pod for 5 days. Also 1 dryer didn't work, shower in queen room leaked and shower door didn't close. It's a great house and we had a wonderful time...just need a few things addressed.”

“I have mixed feeling I loved the condo and the location but the communication was horrible check-in was supposed to be 4 o’clock. They literally close at 5 o’clock. We got there at 6 o’clock, so there was no one there to speak to about parking issues nowhere does it mention that they only have a few allotted spots next to the condo itself. We were parked a block away. I have a medical disability and explain this to them. They did accommodate my disability the last day we were there, the guides and the rules that were sent via a link I could not open. I informed them that I could not open them. They never responded. They also asked me if I wanted to check in early. I had responded with yes and then they had responded with. It was too late. They did the same thing at checkout. They asked me if I wanted a late checkout and I had replied yes and they never responded once again honestly, if you are looking for a place that communicates with you go elsewhere I actually wish I had got a hotel”

“The location was perfect and there were plenty of beach chairs available for use. The room was clean and as described. We received multiple automated emails with incorrect dates that caused some panic (your trip is in 10 days! when it was 3 days out) The check-in process was a bit frustrating as we did not receive the code until 5 mins prior to check-in time. There were also no available ice trays or an ice machine on site and the hosts suggestion was to purchase one and that we could leave it for the unit if we chose to. Otherwise the unit was nice and comfortable, it was secure, great location and clean!”

“Very clean, so close to the beach. Beach was not crowded. Very quiet neighborhood. Loved the pool area and outdoor space. Although four of the bedrooms have king-size beds, which is a plus, the rooms are very small and there's not really any place to put your luggage. The outdoor living space and kitchen are great for groups and entertaining, but the living room was on the smaller side for a group of 10 people. Nothing extra for the price. Bring your own paper products, soaps, etc if you're a large group. Ridiculous early arrival and late departure prices.”

“Great location unfortunately bathroom was not clean and we had to clean it ourselves”

“We got there at 2:00 AM because our flight was delayed. The guidelines that we received included only the unit code not the floor code. We were supposed to get both the unit code and the floor code. The landlord did not answer our calls so after a long wait outside, with a child, at 2am, we were able to get in by chance. The landlord claimed that it was because we didn't sign the rental agreement but that's inaccurate because we had signed the rental agreement two days prior to arriving. Also, regarding the Wi-fi, the password was not in the guidelines and we had to call to get it.”

“I would have given 3-4 stars except I DIDN’T HAVE ANY HOT WATER the last few days. Bathroom sink stopper didn’t work - had to pry up to get it to drain. Smaller than expected. pull out uncomfortable, though wide enough - sleeping on top was fine. No ice cube trays or ice. Very noisy. Such thin walls, it was hard to believe noise was not within the apartment! It was spring break, so weekend was very loud with reving motorcycles and partes. There was no beach towel as indicated. I bought one and left it for other guests. Also, if guests have any physical constraints, should know that stairs are very steep and narrow. Unless you are one of the lucky few who get on site parking, parking is more than 2 blocks away at best, and that is not always available.”

“Overall, we really liked the place and the location. It's walkable to many restaurants, beach and activities. The place was clean and had great views of the bay. One thing to note is the 4th 'bedroom' in the basement is a little warm. There is no bathroom without going upstairs and no central AC. There is a small unit in the room but it's not well sealed. The host communicated well before our stay but we had no wifi for our stay and I reached out to the host through Airbnb several times and got no response. I finally got a response 4 hours after we checked out telling me where the router is to reset it and saying they don't check Airbnb messages frequently. The App did show they read my message and still didn't respond for two days. They did apologize but told me I should have reached out to them directly, not through Airbnb. However, Airbnb says to always reach out through them for safety purposes. Great place, not a responsive host which is reflected in my rating.”

“Overall, we enjoyed our stay based on the location being close to the Pinellas Trail to bike on. We also liked the fenced in yard which provided privacy. It was overpriced though considering we were not by the water and the neighborhood is run down and there were some basic amenities that would have made our stay better. There was no tea kettle to boil water. No coffee pot-there was a Keurig but no pods provided. The lights are way too bright throughout the house. The bathroom door does not shut all the way so if you have a guest over, they can see in. There needs to be an extra nightstand with a lamp. The pool description says heated but it is not. It was ice cold. Check out is 11:00 and at 10:00, the cleaning lady was in our driveway so we felt rushed to get out.”
