Nightmare Check In at a Beautiful Home
We had a great time at this property for the weekend once we were able to check in. The property required me to fill out a form before they would send over the code to get in and it took almost an hour of calling Portoro, the number they gave VRBO to call, VRBO customer service, and numbers listed within those voicemails to be able to get that form to get inside. Location is great, house is beautiful, pool is amazing, but make sure to get your check in form before arriving. They did not allow me to check in early either and one of the beds is extremely noisy.

Reunion weekend
What a wonderful weekend with friends! The house was perfect and it was ten stars out of five! The only regret was that we were so busy we didn’t have as much time as we would have liked to just relax and enjoy the space more. The rental company was always available for questions and was very responsive. The only thing that was an issue was that we belatedly decided to have them heat the pool. By morning the temperature had not changed at all and so we had to cancel it. We’d absolutely stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone else. Beautifully appointed and full of amenities, and surprises.
