Summer Beach Trip!

We really enjoyed our stay and location! The property is in an excellent location. The sleeping arrangements was excellent for our group. The only complaints(which really weren’t a big deal!) were the lack of pots and pans in the kitchen and the rented beach chairs were behind people with their own umbrellas and chairs. The rented chairs have always gotten priority at other properties we have stayed at. Overall, we will definitely be renting again!

Great Place, but Awful Communication

This was a terrific condo, and we had a wonderful time. But there is a disconnect between Vrbo and the actual property manager, Vacation Home Collection, that resulted in me paying about $150 more than originally guaranteed. Vrbo and VHC blamed each other for the problem. This was very unprofessional, and I will avoid both companies in the future.
