The positives:
Great location and walkable to everything. Property looked just as pictured. Couch was nice and clean. The 'master' bed was very comfortable. The linen was comfy and soft. The towels were plush and white, like new.
The negatives:
I didn't realize upstairs only had one bathroom for all 3 rooms. No master shower!! My husband and I stayed there with young adults. So, we gave them the upstairs bathroom and we used the one downstairs (which had a shower also). Very inconvenient! Also, the 'master bedroom' had a pet odor. Although the place looked clean. It definitely is need of a complete remodel. It can also use a better maintenance person. You can clearly see what work was done/fixed as they did the bare minimum and even sloppy.

House needs help
Good location for what I needed it for. House is in much need of maintenance. Screen doors won't stay on the track, so we just took them off. Oven would not heat. Toiletries were very limited, we actually ran out of toilet paper, no Kleenex for back up. No plastic wrap or baggies, who uses parchment paper. NO CLEANING SUPPLIES AT ALL to wipe down things. Beds are comfortable, nice sheets. Patio desperately needs help, all broken up cement....overall I would NOT stay here again...GP

Nice pony that has been ridden hard
Loved the views and location of house….balcony was unsafe, furniture old and stained… people walking through property to get to their boat (no warning, just show up) …construction next door … starting with loud noises at 8 am Monthly-Friday…dirty carpet upstairs in bedrooms, wood floors downstairs need to be refinished

Not what we expected, Vacasa Stepped up
This home was a huge disappointment. There were numerous issues ranging from hazards with outlets sparking, wires exposed in the outlets as well as safety concerns for children with the staircase railings having huge gaps where kids could easily fall thru. There was also major construction going on next door. We were notified there would be some construction, however not the extent we experienced. There was heavy machinery and drilling that took place all day long. Making this long story short, Vacasa knew how important this trip was to us, celebrating my husbands birthday and having our grown kids together in one home, they stepped up and relocated us to a different home. I am thrilled they did this for us as it literally saved our vacation. I will definitely rent from Vacasa again because of what they did.

We enjoyed our stay!
Loved being on the water, went paddle boarding right out the back door. My teenagers loved it and I felt safe with them in the water. Location was great we had bikes and rode everywhere. Next to busy road that was loud at all hours. House is somewhat outdated. Overall, I was happy with everything for the price :)

Spring break stay
Had a great time at this property. They beds were very comfortable and the living area. There was enough cooking pans to make our meals. They had coffee for the coffee pot and Keurig. Had some issues with the washer but they were quick to get it fixed. Easy checkout as well.

Family Christmas
Had a nice time at the house for a Christmas away from home. Great picture windows seeing the water but the house is very close to the main road so you hear a lot of traffic even with the windows closed. Overall clean but more worn and older then expected especially for the price.

Nice property.. great location…
As described. Check in was perfect and Vacasa was proactive with checking on us. Kitchen has been remodeled. Three bedrooms.. two very large. Love the location with easy access to Balboa and Lido. A bit dated, but very clean and nice. Parking is a bit tight .. fits two large-ish cars or three small ones.
