Overall Great Stay with Hidden Problems

Pros: This house had everything we needed as far as space and was beautifully decorated. It looked like the decor had been refreshed recently. Proximity to the beach was great, just a short walk across the street. The open concept floor plan with all bedrooms on the same floor was very convenient. Cons: 1. Stairs railing was not secure. Dangerous for anyone needing support going up and down the stairs. When I mentioned this to the property manager she didn’t act like this was a serious concern or that it would be fixed before the next family checked in. 2. Bugs! On the surface things were clean, but on the second day we found dozens of small bugs in the dining room curtains and on the floor next to the dining room table. Looking closer we realized these were termites. We found them on the window sills and by the kitchen sink. On the morning we checked out there were bugs and wings in the bathroom sink when I went to brush my teeth. The property manager argued with me about the bugs. She said their exterminator said they were flying gnats. Every person in our party agreed 100% that they were termites. Regardless, it was gross and very evident that the house was not thoroughly cleaned. 3. The house, front door and deck with sitting areas all face a busy street. Cars playing loud music, work trucks, etc drove by all day long. Very noisy. We received a refund of $350 for inconvenience of the bugs, but I didn’t feel like there was any urgency to fix the stairs.

Wonderful home for family

We loved our stay. Everything was perfect. We have 3 kids ages 3-7 and the layout and location was excellent. I also appreciate how clean it was when we arrived. Kitchen is very well stocked and we did most meals at the home. The walk to beach is just across the street. Highly recommend!

Poor Property Management - Termite Nest in Bedroom

This was our fourth annual trip to Anna Marie island with our family. We booked an expensive four night stay with this property to celebrate an anniversary and birthday. The home is located at an ideal location, but the accommodations were unacceptably poor. Our daughter slept in the second master bedroom the first night, but reported a bunch of dirt in her sheets. Upon inspection, it was evident that the dirt was coming from a mound, almost like an ant pile that had amassed at the top of the window frame above the bed. I called Vacasa to address it. They sent over a housekeeper and he confirmed it was a termite mound. So upon learning that my daughter had slept in the debris from a termite mound in our expensive vacation rental, I told the housekeeper to have the manager call me immediately, and that I wanted to check out early. The housekeeper recommended that I just pull the bed frame away from the window sill so that the termite mound debris would not land on the bed anymore. The manager never called. Through the remainder of our stay I contacted Vacasa multiple times over the phone, through text, and through the VRBO app. None of the 6 people I spoke to could get the local property manager to contact me. The VRBO help desk was unhelpful. We cut our losses and checked out a day early. I continued to call Vacasa to seek reimbursement for this poor experience. They had a multiple chances to remedy the situation. They eventually reimbursed me 5% of the total cost.

Great Location - Small Upgrades Needed

The location of this property is great; right across the street from beach access. Outdoor shower to rinse off. Great covered parking. This house just needs some minor updates; fridge wasn't working, a/c couldn't keep up, toilets extremely hard to flush, pool was closed unexpectedly, no extras as indicated in email (garbage bags, toilet paper, laundry detergent). It wouldn't take much to really bring this property from good to GREAT!

My wife and our friends had a enjoyable stay at the Sundance Cottage for 4 days. Excellent location across the street from the beach. The property was impeccable with many amenities. We enjoyed sunsets from the front porch. The heated pool was great too! Went to Sandbar for a sunset dinner. Only downside was the code we where give for the door did not work. The rental agent gave us the lock box code to get the key for the front door. Also we had to get all the leaves out of the pool from Tropical storm Nicole. We called and left a message with rental agency but nnever received a reply. Overall great experience and would recommend to our friends.

Great house and location. Response to issues was disappointing.

Great house, very clean inside, lots of kitchen equipment. Wish they said what kind of coffee pot so we could purchase on the way. They have a Keurig and a drip coffee pot so you know. Entry code never worked. Upon arrival had to call to find random lock box and get key. Pool was filthy. I understand rain but it was never cleaned properly. Hand rails on stars are very flimsy. Internet worked on and off. Biggest issue was grill. We planed to grill almost every meal. Upon arrival we found the grill was gross and didn’t function. We called and they said they would escalate to be out that day: the next evening after calling again they said they had many work orders and didn’t know an ETA. Finally took trash out that evening and someone was cleaning grill. She made an absolute mess. Grease and gunk everywhere. She never told us she was leaving to test grill. Went back down and once again grill didn’t function. Vacasa dropped the ball here.
