Vacasa “Bait & Switch” 18 hours before check in.

Informed 18 hours B4 check-in the beachfront facility I’d booked/paid for weeks before had “hurricane damage” so VRBO’s local management, Vacasa, shifted me to a site in StPete proper, far from the beach. Had to locate, pitch & fight for a comparable alternative myself. I visited the original hotel, it was full and functioning:, no “hurricane damage” visible. I visited the facility

2nd time NOT a charm

This is our second Vacasa rental with the same results. The room was not, but was advertised. Room needs to be checked for mildew and AC unit needs to be replaced. Room is damp and AC is not sufficient for even this tiniest of rooms. I also couldn't find the parking space indicated in the instructions.

Management Companies

I loved the area and the place was clean. The management company was not helpful and no one knew about the parking. They kept telling us the parking space was 4-R, to go out and look for the space. We continued to tell them they were 4 numbers for street parking. After 11 threads of email without help from them, it turns out 4-R is the area and parking in from was good (along with registering my car and license - that Vacasa did).I spent too much time emailing the first day of arrival! Not cool when I was going for peace and get a way from the hectic city life.

Perfect for one or two people

The place is the last in the courtyard. Small but has everything you need. The small space is really used well. Happy they had a fan, can’t sleep without one. Shower water is reversed. I had an issue with parking and was instantly helped. R4 is a section of road with reserved parking. Local bars were nice. Beach was clean. Dog park was great too.

Amazing location, room needs improvement

The location is PERFECT - the beach is across the street AND there is a little beach shack nearby that offers breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks. The room itself...yikes. It's small, has a mildew-like odor, and could use a deeper cleaning. The air conditioner looked dirty and I would hate to see what the filter looks like. If you prefer location over comfort, then book it. If it weren't for the location, I'd give this room 2 stars.

Great Location and view!

The location and view are the best! The room itself is showing wear. The AC unit wasn’t working properly. I contacted the rental company and was first told to take it apart, check filters, clean the unit, etc. then I was told that someone would call me the next morning. Then, when I mentioned I saw that someone else had complained about AC I was told….”oh that was fixed”. Not! No one ever followed up and AC was more like a swamp cooler / fan. Sadly, the room seemed very worn this trip. We had stayed in this unit last year and everything was great, not this time.

Great location, nice accommodation for 2

Nice accommodation for my wife and I but can see where 3 or more would be a crowd. Very clean and better than what I expected for a rental. In fact, on the first day of our stay Vacasa followed with a survey on the cleanliness and displayed a wiliness to correct any problems we saw. This also opened up a line of communication with them to report any problems throughout our stay. The worst problem we encountered was with the air conditioner. It looks like with all the units there, the air conditioners are old and dirty, the one in this room is no exception. Overall though, we experienced a pleasant stay and accommodating management.

Don’t do it

On our first day, I was informed by an employee with Vacasa that the cable wasn’t working but that by day 2 of the trip, it’d be fixed. That never happened. Also, when I booked, the listing stated it accommodated 4. Now the listing states it accommodates 3. Why was I not informed beforehand that it was no longer suitable for 4? It definitely was not. It wouldn’t be suitable for even 3. You’d think that couch was a pull out with a mattress- it is a futon. Towels were dirty, floor had hair all over. We saw tiny little roach like bugs in the bathroom. The air conditioner is maybe 5” from the bed. It rattles and continuously runs all day/night. I attempted to send the employees photos of the dirty items but you also won’t get phone service either, so I could barely text anything. We’ve been to pass a grille 5x. There are other units in this building that are much nicer, cleaner and more updated. Don’t book this.

Nice location

The location of the unit was excellent. It was steps away from the beach. The property was under construction, which made for a loud morning when they were working on the unit. The actual place was fine in terms of what it was -- it's a small place for sleeping and showering. The parking situation should be more clear, as there are side streets that have signs about parking without a permit. Overall - nice place -- wish it was not under construction, as we could have utilized the balcony and enjoyed the view a little more.
