First off the good:
It is a beautiful house in a great place. Access to water way and back patio were beautiful. Amenities were mostly as described
The odd:
Owners live on site in basement, this was not disclosed anywhere on the VRBO site and was a very unexpected surprise.
Access to the back patio is not easily accessible as the owner suite is in between guest area and back patio, so you had to go around house to get to the patio. In addition, the patio was directly off the owners space, made it very awkward to relax on the patio knowing they were right there.
Friday morning a repair man came to fix something in owner suite, so they had to come through our space.
After returning from our outings on Friday, there was a note left in our space, which felt very odd knowing they came into the guest side while we were out.
Saturday afternoon after returning from the beach, they were in the process of cleaning out their garage and had the entire driveway filled with the contents of their garage, we had to walk around it all to gain access to the house.
Owners also requested kids not be in the hot tub despite the disclosure on VRBO saying they were allowed as long as adults present.
That being said, owners were very nice and friendly, but definitely not the experience we expected or paid for :(
