This home was clean and perfect for our stay.
The only drawback was that we could not use the hot tub.
House was lovely, location and neighborhood was amazing—very safe.One downside was the pool. I didn’t realize there wasn’t a heater for it, so we were unable to use the pool.

We enjoyed our stay. Location was great for our needs.
Disappointed that the pool was so chilly and the hot tub was not available. Hot tub unavailability was in the description, but still disappointing. House was large and clean. All items as described. Happy to be able to park in the spacious garage.
Nice and clean house.Quite neighbourhood and close to the beach.

The house was great. Plenty of room with nice furnishings. The only downside was the lack of disposable items. One roll of toilet paper and one roll of paper towels for a week long reservation is obviously inadequate. The rules around garbage pickup days and the threat of a 100 fine were disappointing. Small issues can stain an otherwise great experience.

Hi Max! Thank you for stopping in at Sugar Beach. Thank you for your review—we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the house, its spacious layout, and the furnishings. We’re sorry to hear that the limited disposable items and garbage policy affected your experience. As mentioned in the Guest Charter, we provide a starter pack of essentials to help guests settle in, with the expectation that supplies will be replenished as needed during the stay. We’ll certainly take your feedback into account. We truly appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again.
We had a wonderful time at Sugar Beach. We were in town to watch a few Pittsburgh Pirate Spring Training games and enjoy some Florida sunshine. Everything was exactly as pictured, the house was super clean and questions were answered promptly. We were able to really relax and enjoy this beatiful home. We would definitely stay here again.

A little piece of paradise, for sure! Everything was great. Just an fyi for everyone, make sure & bring all paper & cleaning products (toilet paper, paper towls, hand soap, dish soap, etc) I may have missed that in the booking instructions, but it was definitely a surprise to me when we got there lol.instructions
Beautiful property. Newly updated. Clean. Easy check in process.
Suggested upgrade ideas include more trash bags, toilet paper and better detergent and hand soap. Also pillows could be better.
Overall, amazing home. Didn’t use pool.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Renter Beware! This property had black hair everywhere on the counters, bed sheets, bathroom floors along with dirty silverware mixed in with used white plastic spoons with grimy wine glasses. After complaining about the cleanliness and letting the property manager know about other problems like the coffee maker barely working because of the descale light was on, the garage code didn't work, nor did it open from the inside which I sent pictures and videos, they instructed us to just clean it ourselves and a cleaning crew would show up which didn't happen. The worst part is this property is right next to a busy road so you hear cars all day and night plus they have an outdoor motion light which goes off all night due to the cars driving by and shining into the master bedroom all night through shutters that don't close properly and when I asked how to turn off the bright pool light at night which shines in the other master bedroom window they told me to figure out how to turn it off myself so getting a good night sleep is impossible. To put the icing on the cake, when I asked for a Noon checkout time instead of the 10am due to an afternoon flight, they offered a 11am checkout for 100!! They also said if I don't roll out their trashes even though we didn't use them, they would fine us 100. There were more issues, but I think you get the picture. Stay away from this property if at all possible! BRUTAL!

Hi there. Thank y ou for stopping in at Sugar Beach. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly and deeply sorry for the many issues you encountered during your stay, and we completely understand why this was so upsetting and frustrating. This is absolutely not the experience we want any guest to have.
We sincerely apologize for the unacceptable cleanliness issues you described. Finding hair, dirty silverware, grimy glassware, and poorly cleaned surfaces is not acceptable under any circumstances, and we are very sorry that the home was not properly prepared prior to your arrival. Being advised to clean the property yourself while waiting for a cleaning crew that never arrived is especially concerning, and we fully acknowledge how disappointing and inappropriate that response was.
We are also very sorry for the multiple maintenance-related problems you experienced, including the malfunctioning coffee maker, the garage access issues, and the lack of timely follow-through after you provided photos and videos. You were absolutely right to expect these concerns to be addressed promptly, and we regret that this did not happen.
We completely understand how important a good night’s sleep is, and we sincerely apologize for the disturbance caused by the road noise, the outdoor motion light, the pool light, and the shutters not closing properly. Being told to “figure it out yourself” is not acceptable, and we are very sorry for the added stress this caused during your stay.
We also regret that the checkout options and associated fees added to your frustration, as well as the communication regarding trash removal. While policies do exist, we understand how these felt punitive given the circumstances, and we are sorry that greater flexibility and empathy were not shown.
Please know that your feedback has been taken extremely seriously and has been escalated internally. Each of the issues you raised highlights areas where we clearly fell short, and corrective action is being taken to ensure this does not happen again.
We genuinely apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience you experienced and regret that we did not provide the level of comfort, cleanliness, and service you deserved. Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention.

No pool heat
Please be aware the pool is not heated. Went through a huge hassle with the management, never actually talking to someone who would make it right and move us to somewhere with a pool so my kids could play. That was disappointing. Went on vacation and couldn’t get in the pool. Kind of ruined my vacation as I then had to find other ways to entertain them. They eventually refunded me about half of my stay, but it was too little too late. House was clean and spacious and comfy. Bare bones amenities. Cookware was basic. Only provided two trash bags and two dishwasher pods. No extra toilet paper. Lots of other rentals we’ve stayed in have extra beach chairs and such. There were 4 beach towels and a cooler to borrow. Probably my least favorite experience to date (and my family of 6 has been using VRBO for many years). Was dissatisfied with the cooperation of VRBO and their booking guarantee as well. They did nothing. Overall, it was fine, but no different than staying at a hotel. A place to sleep. -March 2025

Thank you for the 3-star rating and taking the time to share your experience. While we're pleased to hear that you found the home clean, spacious, and comfortable, we acknowledge that other aspects of your stay fell short of expectations.
We understand how important a heated pool can be—especially when traveling with children—and we regret that this amenity didn’t meet your needs during your visit. We also apologize for the frustration you experienced in trying to resolve the issue; we are reviewing how these situations are handled to improve communication and responsiveness going forward.
Regarding the starter supplies and amenities, our homes are equipped with a basic welcome kit to get guests started, but we recognize this may not always match what guests have experienced elsewhere. Your suggestions about providing additional essentials and beach items are well taken and will be considered as we continue to improve the guest experience.
Thank you again for your honest review—we hope to have the opportunity to offer you a better experience in the future.
Wir hatten einen insgesamt guten Aufenthalt in diesem Ferienhaus. Die Unterkunft war bei unserer Ankunft sehr sauber und aufgeräumt, und die Klimaanlage funktionierte einwandfrei, was sehr angenehm war.Einziger Kritikpunkt war die Anreise. Der Schlüssel befand sich nicht in der Keybox, was uns zunächst vor eine Herausforderung stellte. Zum Glück hatten wir den Code für die Garage, über die wir ins Haus gelangten, bis wir später den Schlüssel erhielten. Auch die Strandausrüstung war mit nur zwei Stühlen und einem Schirm für eine Gruppe von fünf Personen sehr spärlich. Zudem war der Whirlpool nicht benutzbar, da er leer war und modrig roch. Es war zwar nicht explizit im Angebot, aber es wäre schön gewesen, ihn nutzen zu können.Kleine Probleme wurden jedoch umgehend und schnell behoben, was für den guten Service spricht. Die Bilder im Inserat waren nicht ganz aktuell, aber das war nicht weiter tragisch. Der Pool war akzeptabel, aber nicht makellos sauber, wobei der Poolservice sich sichtlich bemüht hat.Trotz der genannten Punkte war es ein angenehmer Urlaub.

Hallo und vielen Dank, dass Sie im Sugar Beach vorbeigeschaut haben!
Ein ganz herzliches Dankeschön, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, eine so durchdachte Bewertung zu schreiben – und natürlich für die 5-Sterne-Bewertung!! ⭐
Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Sie das Haus bei Ihrer Ankunft so sauber und ordentlich vorgefunden haben und dass die Klimaanlage Ihren Aufenthalt angenehm gemacht hat – solches Feedback hören wir immer wieder gerne.
Wir möchten uns aufrichtig für die Unannehmlichkeiten beim Check-in entschuldigen, da der Schlüssel nicht in der Keybox war. Wir sind froh, dass Sie das Haus mit dem Garagentor-Code dennoch betreten konnten, verstehen aber vollkommen, dass dies nicht ideal war, und schätzen Ihre Geduld sehr, bis das Problem behoben war.
Vielen Dank auch für Ihr Feedback zur Strandausrüstung – wir werden prüfen, wie wir größere Gruppen künftig besser ausstatten können. Bezüglich des Whirlpools tut es uns leid, dass dieser nicht nutzbar war. Auch wenn er nicht ausdrücklich als Annehmlichkeit aufgeführt ist, werden wir in Zukunft darauf achten, ihn in besserem Zustand zu halten, um Missverständnisse zu vermeiden.
Wir freuen uns außerdem, dass kleine Probleme schnell behoben werden konnten und Sie die Bemühungen unseres Poolservice-Teams anerkannt haben. Auch Ihren Hinweis zu den Fotos im Inserat wissen wir zu schätzen – wir werden diese überprüfen, um sicherzustellen, dass sie den aktuellen Stand der Unterkunft widerspiegeln.
Am meisten freut uns, dass Sie trotz dieser kleinen Stolpersteine einen schönen Urlaub verbringen konnten. Ihr Feedback hilft uns, uns stetig zu verbessern, und Ihre freundlichen Worte bedeuten uns sehr viel. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie in Zukunft wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen – dann hoffentlich zu einem noch reibungsloseren und entspannenderen Aufenthalt. 🌴
