Tennis Villas

This unit could be very nice if someone would put a little effort into it. The refrigerator leaks, and the dishwasher is not fasten to the counter top so it tips forward when you open the door. It is also very noisy with the construction of the new water park going in beside it. The host was attentive to our needs and that was a plus and was kind enough to let us stay a little longer at the unit before leaving for the airport.

Never again with Rosen Vacations

In summary, the first day we thought the unit was owned by someone who was ripped off during renovations and called to report the issues. The advertising photos were taken prior to the devastating storms. The condo was dirty, ill equipped, and not at all that was advertised. Photos document the rusty fridge with broken drawers, blood on linens, rips in curtains, peeling ceiling, leaky toilet, leaking fridge, dirt and crumbs in furniture, food in the dishwasher. The porch furniture was stained and rusted, crowded with the beach chairs (broken & rusted) and a rusty bike. If we had been able to find another place, we would have left. On our 3rd of our seven day stay (Feb 1-8) - and twice again since Feb 8 - we informed Rosen we were going to request a refund. As of today, Feb 16, we have not yet heard back from them. PS; I am 77 and a 45 year visitor to Sanibel / Captive and couldn't be more disappointed with our stay. This is my first experience with Vrbo.

Still recovering from Ian

This is a nice little condo. One of the few ready for guests, which we knew coming in. Several items weren’t quite fixed. Sliding door wouldn’t lock, towel rack in kitchen repeatedly fell off. Worst of all was the king bed with the oversized frame. We could hardly get past it to get to the other side. Please replace that frame and it would be much more livable. Otherwise a cute place. Walking distance to the beach which is always a plus!

Tennis villa Capitva

We enjoyed our short stay. The room was clean and all we needed. They supplied a wagon to get chairs (supplied also) a short walk to the beach. Overall we had nothing but great things to say.

The location was good, but it was NOT clean

There was hair (not mine) in the bathroom sink and the sink was clogged. There was also someone else's hair on the floor by the entrance. The ice machine had old ice and had not been cleaned out in a while. There was a shirt left by a previous renter. In the bedroom, there is a ceiling fan with a light, which didn't work. Coffee stains on the bedroom floor left behind. Not sure how this happened but my car was loaded with tiny ants after the first night's stay. Each time I parked around that building, the ants infested my car. It didn't happen any other parking spot on the island. I have pictures of most of these things. I WILL NOT stay there again. On a positive note, VRBO was amazing to work with and will use them again
