The owners are scammers! Stay away! This is not luxury property. It is run down attached bedroom in trashy neighborhood trashy house. There is another person living in the house. Windows closed with some cloth… backyard disgusting! Furniture broken in backyard. No kitchen it is tiny closet with fridge only. No sink!!!Upon checking the property I had terrible feeling and literally ran away. Called the owner , told her that she misrepresented place and offered 2 days of my stay payment but told here there is no way I would ever stay there. She said no problem I will call VRBO and will issue the refund. I left to San Diego and checked into the hotel. Only to find out that she said to VRBO that no refund ever be given lol . I texted her back and asked why she is doing that? She called immediately and started to threaten and told me to write certain things to VRBO and that VRBO tries to screw both of us which is lie! There were two days back and forth with VRBO and then the owner decided to be smart and told VRBO that I am still staying at her property lol . Well. It was easy to prove that I am stayin in upscale hotel in San Diego. The owner is horrible lier and scammer! Be aware ! The property again is attaché master bedroom with sink outside. It smells horrible it is connected to the main run down house where long term tenant lives. There is spider web everywhere. It is creepy place ! Hope it helps. Unfortunately such people are allowed to be on VRBO

This was my first bad experience with a VRBO property in over 6 years of using this app. The property is not even close to what is described, and I am still trying to work with the owner to get my refund for the days I did not stay there due to the incorrect posting details. This is not a 1 bedroom for starters, it's a studio. There is NO KITCHEN. This room only has bathroom sinks inside. The "kitchen sink" is an outdoor sink by the pool. The "oven" is a toaster oven in a closet next to the refrigerator and storage shelves. There is a BBQ outside and I assume that what they refer to as the stove. There is a microwave in a cabinet on the other side of the room, next to the bathroom. There is no kitchen table inside, only a desk that I was told I could do my food prep there because it was raining when we were visiting. The back yard is beautiful, but not private at all. The neigh house sits higher up and looks down into the yard. The owners actually have a ring camera that looks directly at the hot tub and into the bedroom windows where the bed is! This is not disclosed on the profile, so it actually violates the policy for VRBO. We had spoken to Alma the next morning after we arrived and she agreed to refund us if we chose to leave and book another house. So that' what we did and were able to check in the new place the next day. So, we ended up staying two nights here and then left expecting to be refunded for the five nights we did not stay. This has not happened yet!

The property is well situated to restaurants and short drive to beach. The pool and backyard were wonderful. Our dog especially enjoyed the fenced in yard. While the kitchenette is well stocked it is only suited to the simplest meals due to the lack of sink and prep area inside the casita.

Not What We Expected

I was not under the impression that when a listing called itself a Bungalow that meant it’s not a whole home. I did not know until the day of that this is not an entire house. I got a text message with the check in info and it was called an ADU and showed more detail than the listing on the app. The “fully stocked kitchen” is a closet with a fridge, air fryer, and toaster oven and a microwave next to the bathroom. I was pretty bummed when I saw they called it an ADU but I was devastated when I read it shared a wall with the main house. This listing is a room at the back of a house that has been made into a “separate” space. It felt creepy that there was a connecting door that the permanent tenant could use to enter into the sleeping area. And it disturbed my dogs having another dog living on the property. Very minimal privacy with the glass doors and see through curtains. I left a day early.

False Listing and Horrible Experience

This rental was falsely advertised in every way. This was not located in an upscale neighborhood. This was never stated that the rental was attached to a house where there is a person living. It was listed as a luxury beach bungalow. It is no where close to a beach and there was nothing luxury about it. We took multiple pictures showing that the entry door was completely warped and water damaged along with areas in the bathroom with the same damage. There was barely look warm water in the shower. The apartment was obviously a master bedroom addition to the house that had a door to the existing house with a towel blocking the sound from the house tenant. There were spider webs throughout and when we turned on the ceiling fan, clumps of dust fell onto the bed. There was sign in posted with a wifi password that was not correct. The check in instructions called out the correct wifi password located on the bottom of the router located on a non existent desk and was actually located on the floor behind the dining table. Although the backyard was private to our rental, the outdoor lights were only accessible in the main house. So with the exception of our porch light, the backyard was completely dark at night. The outdoor bbq and coutertop areas were not even complete. The side of the existing house was full of crap and building material. The front of the house was the same. We did not receive check in or out instructions along with nothing printed out at the rental. I have photos

Great stay overall, very comfortable room with everything you could ever need. Note that it is connected to another house, even though they give you the back yard the whole time. Didn't bother me, just something to note. Only having a kitchen sink outside was the only drawback, fine in the summer, but might be difficult in the winter.
