DO NOT book with Christian! Choose a different host, even at a higher price point. Don’t let the lower advertised price convince you to book with this host. I am convinced that his company is a scam. I have no reason to speak ill of anyone, but rather to protect other innocent travelers from falling victim to the same terrible experience.As the saying goes, things that seem too good to be true, usually are. We booked a property through Christian 2.5 months prior to our travel dates. Full payment was given via VRBO. Multiple messages were exchanged with the host via the VRBO platform. Everything seemed normal. This was meant to be a dream family vacation to Kauai over the holidays. Thanks to Christian, our dream turned into a nightmare! Just a few hours before our flight to Kauai, at nearly midnight, we received an automated message that our reservation had been canceled. There was no phone call, just a text message. Christian could not be reached, and his company just had a voice mailbox.We lost the first few days of our 7 day trip trying to find replacement housing in Kauai - over the New Year holiday - which was next to impossible since the island was nearly fully booked. VRBO support was helpful, but difficult to reach at times, and was restricted to the same limited availability of lodging options.I am sure I am not the first guest that has had this experience. Save yourself from the headache and frustration. Shame on you, Christian!
