This home is great and the Actual Owner is great. The EVOLVE company not so great, I love the home. Perfect for work or play. Easy access and very clean.
We had a great rental experience. No drama. Although not a dealbreaker, the refrigerator and dishwasher (when in use) were extremely loud.

So glad you had a great, drama-free stay with us! Thanks for sharing your experience, and we hope you have a wonderful time wherever your travels take you next.
Very nice duplex in a prime location for families. We enjoyed our stay, rooms were nice and cool, pool was nice and quiet and we had enough place for our family on 5! Host was very helpful and quick to respond. Best part… the beds! More comfortable than my personal bed! I need an upgrade because staying here spoiled me! Definitely will book again when we come back!

We're so glad the location worked well for your family and that everyone had plenty of room to spread out! It's great to hear the pool and cool rooms hit the spot, and we love that the beds made such an impression, that kind of comfort is exactly what we hope guests experience. Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review and for being wonderful guests. We look forward to welcoming your family back for another 5-star stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
We could not get because there was no GATE Code provided. It took forever to get a hold of the host. Then when we finally got through the gate- we could not get into the door as the key code did not work. And again we needed to get a hold of the host. Lots of delays. And then they wanted us to take out the trash but no instructions on where we were supposed to take the trash. They also expected up to not just run the dishwasher- but to wait until it was done and then put away the dishes! With a 10am checkout- we had to handwashing's out breakfast dishes!! Oh and the ceiling fans were the nastiest things I have ever seen- and they were over every bed and living room. GROSS.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We regret the inconvenience experienced during check-in, including delays related to access and communication.
During the initial implementation phase, there was an error with guest code activation timing; however, this has since been corrected and the check-in process has been running smoothly. Arrival and departure instructions have also been reviewed and clarified to create a more seamless experience for future guests, including simplified checkout expectations. In addition, a deep cleaning has been scheduled to address detailed areas of the home, including ceiling fans, baseboards, and blinds, to ensure the property continues to meet our cleanliness standards. We are continuously working to improve the guest experience and value your comments.
