Review sent to vrbo: Home has been nicely remodeled. Kitchen is excellent with all amenities. Very nice coffee station. We had no reason to have maintenane come out during our 2wk. But there are a number of items that would give this a better rating: Vertical blinds are missing or don't work, corner shelf in master bath was laying on the floor, stains on towels, undisclosed leaky skylight, washing machine sounds like it's going to quit, light switches do not operate lights/fans in bedrooms, horizontal blinds are missing wands, rugs are old and stained, grill is rusted out (we did not use it)

Not a good experience
Wasn't happy with the stay. Arrived to the home after driving all day and couldn't get in. The batteries were dead in the electronic lock, a maintenance guy had to come out and pry a back door open to get into the home. Pool pump wouldn't work, so no circulation or filtration on the pool. Hot water tank went out after one day of stay. Washer was broken and wouldn't work. The entire breaker box needed replaced, so the management company asked us to move homes. I appreciate them trying to make it right, but everything was a huge inconvenience during a baseball tournament/vacation.
