The property was very clean and nice towels. The bed and sofa were extremely uncomfortable. Probably the worst bed I ever slept on and for 5 nights it took a toll on our sleep and bodies. The pool was very nice and enjoyable however the surrounding area around the pool needs some TLC.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 March 2026
Thank you for your stay and for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you found the home very clean, enjoyed the towels, and loved the pool.
We’re sorry the bed and sofa were uncomfortable and that it impacted your sleep. After receiving your note, we replaced the mattress and added a topper to improve comfort, and we’re also giving the pool-side area the TLC you mentioned.
Thank you again—we’d love the chance to welcome you back.
