The home was tidy, had the perfect amount of space for our family. You can’t beat the location!

TL;DR: This VRBO is a bait and switch. Avoid at all costs. Property is not as described and we have submitted formal complaints to VRBO. We contacted the owner during our stay and he did not respond. First, this property is advertised as a "house" but it is a duplex. Owner seems to be intentionally hiding that fact, as he didn't mention any unit number in the check in either the listing or the check-in instructions (we had to figure it out ourselves, when we arrived). So if you rent this property, you aren't actually staying in the cute beach house pictured (that's a separate unit). Instead, you'll head to the back of the house, where there's a separate entrance for your unit next to an unkempt pile of filthy, rusted, and/or broken beach chairs and toys. Inside, the furniture is dirty and old. Rugs throughout the property are dirty and appear to have been bought 10 years ago. We got only 6 very thin, old towels provided for a week's stay; I messaged the owner to ask where I'd find more towels as the listing says "plenty of towels" but he did not reply. The bed in the king room has a fluffy polyester-filled comforter (not the lightweight quilt that is pictured) which I highly doubt is laundered between guests. I spent the first half day of vacation scrubbing down the walls of the unit because they were absolutely covered in what appeared to be years' worth of accumulation of dirt and grime. Then I went to Wal-Mart and spent nearly $300 on household items because what was at the house was nothing I wanted to touch. I bought cleaning supplies, new rugs, towels, and table coverings to cover the dirty table on the deck and the broken coffee table on the deck. The deck is no as pictured, either. The furniture is old and half-broken. And there was no umbrella, lounge chairs, or cute beachy pillows. The fenced space for dogs is very small and the fence is falling down. It was nice to have a fenced area, but it was as shabby as the rest of the property. The ceilings in the bedrooms are an eyesore. The plaster is falling apart in patches and they are either stained or moldy (or both). When we arrived, the outdoor shower was broken (shower head was broken off). Fortunately someone arrived during our stay to replace it. Pros: You're close to the beach, the place is dog friendly, and the washer and dryer work. Those are literally the only pros. Avoid this property at all costs. There are much nicer properties for the money.
