Was a good stay but could have been better. The view is absolutely gorgeous and very roomy condo, beds were comfortable too. There is serval repairs that need to be done to the condo that made our stay inconvenient in ways. The jet tub didn’t work. The plate in the microwave didn’t spin so that wasn’t usable. The digital screen on the oven was very faint so we barely could see to use it. We had to hope for the best. The patio chairs all have splinters that scratch your legs while trying to sit. So we didn’t get to spend as much time out there as we would have wanted. There was a good bit of kid stuff which was a plus. I tried to contact through the app and ask the host. What items were there and kept getting automated customer service. But for anybody else, wondering there is a booster seat for the table. A playpen. Plastic dishes that are kid friendly in the kitchen. Also a nice surprise was games and toys in the TV cabinet. There was also a leak underneath the kitchen sink when we arrived and we notified the host.

The beach is less busy here and the unit was great! Will likely stay again.

Spoke to Vacasa regarding broken balcony door handle and ice machine not working. The listing did include that the ice machine would not be working during our stay although we didn’t realize. The door handle was never addressed. The whirlpool tub had sand in it and there was hair in the bathroom floor. No trash bag in bedroom trash can. These are not major but felt we should mention. Vacasa did message back but no other correspondence afterward. We did have a great vacation.

No communication!! We let you know that our washing machine did not work, water in tub did not work & toaster was broken. All we were told was We are working on getting a solution Is quickly as possible? Is there anything else we can help you with?
This is the only communication we had with every issue.
The rest of the stay was good. But lack of communication was very frustrating and ruined a lot for me. Sense 4 of us had to go out and buy clothes so that we could finish out our trip. We traveled flight expecting to be able to wash our clothes and we wear them.
