Spacious living!
Great space with lovely features. Most of the renovation needs from previous posts were resolved or in the process of being resolved. Location was awesome, pool was great, kitchen was very well stocked with cooking supplies! On the other hand, this house still needs more restoration to be 5 star. Rotting window sills, loose/broken tiles, weathered wooden walkway, many doors and windows were difficult or impossible to open/close. (Doors were being replaced while we were there!!) The Vacasa team on site were very helpful and friendly!

Renter beware
The pictures of this home are very deceptive. Before our trip I saw the negative reviews and followed up with Vacasa, citing specific issues. When I asked about the doors not working, I was told the sliding door to the pool was replaced. Not replaced and very difficult to use. A second beachside side door also inoperable. During a hard rain, we had water pouring in through the front door. Local staff dropped off more towels to soak this up. Door was not repaired. So our visit was spent will pots and towels on the landing, definitely a trip and slip hazard. The house’s boardwalk is unsafe. At the top it sways when you step on it. At the beachside, we had it partially collapse. We called this in and someone came and took pictures. We spent the last day and a half picking our way carefully to the beach. The shower heads we were told were fixed were not. The condition of the ceilings and walls from water damage were unacceptable for the cost of this home. Walls in dining area remain wet and this is near electrical outlets. Many maintenance issues need to be addressed. Vacasa is a corporation and you will not get the vacation you are looking for, like when you rent locally. We’ve been coming to St George many years and this house is not what we are accustomed too. The excuse we were given over and over was it is up to the owner to authorize repairs. Vacasa is the vacation manager for this home and allows this owner to put renters in unsafe conditions. I was confident that if I called and was told all items were taken care of, then that would be true. It was not.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
Ragged out beach house
Location is excellent …. But the years of deferred maintenance made our stay stressful. Both refrigerators leaking all over the floor. Air conditioning required three calls to management (and was hot!). Roach infestation. Doors to the beach either would not open or did not have door handles. Carpet was filthy and large spill stains. Non-working shower heads, faucets. Showers on ground floor did not drain well. Broken and worn furniture. There’s a pool, but no room to enjoy the space around the pool. Find somewhere else with a different management company that’s not Vacasa.
