Property #457887 review
After I booked this beach-front house, the owner called to tell me he made a mistake and needed to switch me to his other property #457887 but never updated VRBO officially, so I'm leaving my review here. We were close to the trip date, so we didn't have a choice given we were renting another house on the same street, to split our big group so we all can meet up on the beach every day. Owner said this newly offered house has the biggest heated pool in the area, so I was ok with the swap vs. the beach front house. During our stay, the owner would not turn on the pool heater stating it is a fire hazard given their gas-heater system and the strong wind. The wind was typical for the beach/bay front properties in my experience (and no rain), but had to I assume the owner would make the right decision for his property based on the condition of his heating system. We rent beach/bay pool houses/villas frequently, and it's my first time we could not have the pool heated "because of wind" for 3 days!! The house itself was dated and dark, so our inability to use its main feature= Pool the entire weekend was sad. During our stay, the owner called and asked a lot of invasive questions about the profile of my group. He should have asked any questions before confirming and receiving payment, NOT disturb guests during stay. My group (back-to-school gathering of suburban moms and kids) was extremely quiet and we spent zero time outside. Overall, a very strange experience and wanted to share
