Designer NAPLES home w/POOL, total PRIVACY, near BEACH, SUMMER DISCOUNTS

Yulia our host was responsive. The house was clean, quiet and comfortable. The amenities were great. We had an issue with the hot water heater. Yulia and a plumber were there the same day. We would stay there again.

We have been at Yulia’s home before and is so nice to know where everything is. Yulia couldn’t be nicer.

I love this area. Its so convenient to the beach, great shopping and restaurants. Yulia is a great host. I had a couple of questions and she promptly got back to me. All in all, it was quite an enjoyable stay, beautiful home well stocked with necessities , and of course the amazing pool and lanai! I have 2 little dogs and we thoroughly enjoyed walking in the friendly and quiet neighborhood. I plan on renting from Yulia again.

Our family (4 adults + 2 children) rented this property originally for a stay in October which was delayed due to the hurricane. The property manager worked with us to reschedule the trip as we weren't comfortable flying in days after the hurricane made landfall in SW FL & we were appreciative of her flexibility. We had no issue finding the property and check-in was simple. Upon arrival, I did find two large wasp nests by the garage with active wasps and reported this after checking in. We were able to avoid the nests by using the front door, but it did make me nervous with young children. The property itself was what we expected based upon the listing photos. A few of the linens showed wear, but nothing with the furniture condition made things unusable. Our first issue was with the pool heater. Despite the cooler weather in Florida, we felt that the pool temperature didn't seem to be warm at all. I reported this to the property manager after waiting the 72 hours she specified it could take for the pool to warm. Unfortunately I felt she was quite defensive about the situation despite us sending photos and videos of the pool temperature as shown on the thermometer & video showing that the fan on the pool heater was not running. We later learned from the individual who comes to maintain the pool that in order for the pool temperature to reach the "set" temperature it would need to be set higher because of where the sensor is located underground. After all of this, we were appreciative that we were refunded the additional cost that we paid to have the pool heated, but it was a big disappointment to our two children who just wanted to swim. During our week-long stay, we were in the pool for no more than 1 hour total with our son and our daughter was only able to be in for about 10 minutes total. Our second issue was with the bugs. We have owned property in Florida and recognize that some bugs ("water bugs") come with the territory. The kitchen was filled with bugs and we ended up ordering take-out almost every night due to the concern with cleanliness. You would open the cabinet doors and find live bugs (German cockroaches) crawling across the plates or in the pots and pans. I reported this to the property owner (offered photos/videos) & was told that bugs are normal and part of Florida. While I'd agree that some bugs in FL are "normal", German cockroaches are not and need to be treated. Overall, good property location, but we won't stay again.
