GUEST REVIEWS:
The place is very nice and updated we had a few issues after checking in and had a hard time getting a hold of someone on the weekend but the issues were resolved Monday morning while we were at a family funeral. Haven’t used amenities yet as we didn’t have a FOB to be able to use them on Sunday but all is good now so far. Angela B.

Terrble
We were so unhappy with this rental. After paying $500 VRBO fees so we could rely on the rental being great it was not! The living room furniture was so worn out and cheap it felt like we were sitting on slats of boards! Could never get comfortable. There were no dressers in the entire rental. No clocks at all. The shower head fell off on first use. The shower rod would not stay up. No living area lamps except the bright overhead lights There was pet hair everywhere and no vacuum. Our feet were literally black on the bottoms. The refrigerator water and ice dispenser rarely worked and all appliances were cheap. The patio furniture was so small, uncomfortable and cheap also. The bed and living room pillows were little clumps they were so nasty and worn out. We finally got new bed pillows the day after 4 people had gone home and a cheap vacuum cleaner was dropped off. The kitchen supplies were very minimal!!! Not even measuring cups. We did complain but never received anything ! Overall we couldn’t wait to get out!

There is not a comfortable seat in the house. Living room furniture has popping springs. Balcony furniture is cheap wood chairs. All from Ikea and past its useful life. This has been mentioned in past reviews but obviously no improvements have been made. Beds were comfortable.

Our stay
The place was really beautiful. As soon as I walked in, I felt at home. We could’ve used an extra Pod for the dishes lol. The Internet was not very good. Wi-Fi was very slow and it took me almost an hour to get in because I couldn’t open up your email. everything else was cut. We made sure everything was swept and mopped as best as we can do, and even washed all the towels for you.

Dog
Hello. I stated I was bringing a dog who is a therapy dog in training. I asked how much it would cost for me to bring him. I said I would pay for his stay. I got a response saying no cost because of him being a therapy dog. I stated he was I. Training and not fully a service dog yet I did not get a response. Now I am being told the dog was unauthorized. That is just wrong and I got billed for an unauthorized dog. This is not true I asked twice for the cost. If they cannot get this straightened out I will not book there again as I asked for the overall cost never got it I am being charged for washing comforters. Does this mean they do not wash them? Gross!!!!! Good to know comforts do not get washed!

Spacious condo overlooking mangroves
This condo is as it appears in the photos with quite a bit of room to spread out. I would like to address some of the negative reviews I saw before renting this condo. There were a couple that complained of the unit not being clean when they arrived. It was spotless when we arrived. There was another review complaining about stairs! Yes, there are 2 full sets of stairs in this condo so if you have mobility issues this wouldn't be an ideal situation. We have no problems with stairs. There was another review complaining about the unit looking like an IKEA catalog. Yes, this place is completely furnished from IKEA. Again, we have no problem with this. We aren't living here, only staying for a week long vacation. Who cares if it is furnished from IKEA? The furniture was new and the beds were comfortable. My only suggestions to the owner are supplying the unit with more towels. It was only myself and my husband so we were able to round up enough towels for the week. If you have more people staying here, you may want to plan on doing some laundry. The other thing they need to provide is a Welcome Book. All of the other homes/condos we have rented always has a 3 ring binder filled with info about the area . . . where grocery stores, drug stores, restaurants, attractions are located. We would have loved to have a map of the property. We ended up stopping at the guardhouse to find the locations of the trash dumpsters and the pools. Overall, we had a good time staying here. The back of condo looks out over the mangroves. We had our granddaughters spend the night for a "slumber party" and went to the pool the next day. We drove down to Anna Maria Island another day, it's about a 40 minute drive. I highly recommend this beach. Much less crowded than the more popular Clearwater Beach. We went to dinner at the Sunset Grille with family. The thickest crab cakes I've ever had!

I loved the kitchen, & master shower. The double stairs were way too much for me/someone not used to doing stairs multiple times daily. & The sheets had hair & dirt on 2 of the beds as well as unpleasant stains to see/sleep on. Other than the stairs & sheets it was great.

Communication with Property Manager, completely ignored by us.
Floors were so filthy; it took three washings by me to get them clean. Used dishes in cabinets, stale chips in bowls. Broken dishwasher. On 3/12 we returned to find a note on our door from a 3rd party dishwasher repair man. He was sent out and we were not notified, no one from management there to let him in. He left his phone # to call at 941-302-5786 (Jesus), he apologized and rescheduled for 10:30am on 3/13. At 12:30pm I called him to see if he was backed up? He told me that the office (Barbara) had canceled him. There was NO CONTACT TO ME OF THIS CHANGE. An email was sent to me on 3/14 at 10:28pm stating that Home Depot would be delivering a new dishwasher on 3/15 between 7am and 11am. I waited until about 2pm, called Maintenace (Barbara), she insisted that the dishwasher WAS DELIVERED AND INSTALLED. I told her there was no dishwasher delivered here, to come and see for themselves please. She called back at about 3pm, said the dishwasher would not be delivered until Saturday 3/19. No apology, no explanation at all?? I called the property manager, requested he come out and talk to us. No response at all. We packed up and left early. WE WILL NEVER USE VERBO AGAIN. No one should ever be treated the way we were.
