Worst experience using a vrbo or airbnb

We planned this trip sort of last minute for a family vacation. The listing is pretty inaccurate and hasn’t been updated. This area was hit by a major storm last year so understandably some things outside looked different than the photos. Inside you could tell there was water damage and things had been painted over. This is all understandable.What is not understandable is the cleanliness of the property. The owner was staying upstairs while we were there and he apparently “cleaned” the property. The place was very dirty, we saw bugs, the mirror had the previous renters splashes all over it from brushing their teeth… again, I’m capable of wiping off a mirror and we got bug traps from the owner so OK I can look past this. The entire time we were there, which was shorter than we had booked as we left early, the owner was working on the property. Sawing, hammering nails, drilling, at one point other people were there with a ladder right where our outdoor shower was to clean off as we came back from the beach… he was replacing the siding on the house while we were there! I contacted Vrbo when we left two days early asking for those two days back and sent them photos and short clips of videos I took of the sounds via email as I couldn’t send the full videos due to their size. It took them a full week to respond to me saying they weren’t giving me back anything. Needless to say I won’t be using vrbo again and definitely don’t recommend this property.
This is the owner and others doing who knows what as we approached from the beach to rinse off right where they were
This is right outside the bedroom window so my kids couldn’t nap
You can see the new siding that is wood colored. This is right against the living room wall.

Beautiful Beach

Bellaire is a truly gorgeous beach, and the proximity to Clearwater was handy! The cottage was comfortable, the beds were great, and the owners were working hard to recover from substantial hurricane damage. They were very friendly and responsive to our many issues and suggestions about things that were needed, but there are still some things that need to be done to bring it up to the highest VRBO quality.

Great location!

This place is perfect if you have a car! Private, quiet, and right at the beach! This place was great for our small family! The king size bed was comfortable and had a somewhat firm mattress. My daughter loved the queen size bed, though it would have been way too soft for me. We did not use the twin bed. There are lots of beach toys for kids! There are plenty of beach chairs. The beach was empty by our standards which was a nice bonus! We were lucky enough to find lots of sand dollars and the gulf water temps were 89 degrees! Dolphins and manatees swam by. The outside table was nice since it was shady and we always had a nice breeze blowing through! We did not do much cooking at the house, but there appeared to be plenty of kitchen items to do so. The water pressure in the kitchen is very low, but there is a dishwasher available. We found if the faucet was in ‘spray’ mode, it worked a little better. We enjoyed our meals in nearby Indian Rocks Beach, a short 10 minute drive. Clearwater is about 10 minutes north, Indian Rocks about 10 minutes south. Groceries are about 10 minutes away also. Parking at the house is easy and with assigned spots, there was never a worry of parking. The Jolly Trolley goes by the house, but I did not see a stop very close. We visited in the summer which is off season, so getting around by car was fairly easy. Overall I would recommend this place to others!

Best vacation home on the beach

Looking for a cozy cottage on the beach? This is the one! With its beach decor charm with 1 full bathroom and 1/2 plus washer and dryer amenities and access to the beach my family loved staying here. The owner met us as we pulled into the driveway. Randy was delightful and was there if we needed anything. No need to bring anything, It is all there from having a beach wagon, beach chairs, canopy, sand toys, and even sand roll out mats. The living room and both bedrooms had smart TVs for those rainy days for inside activities. Looking forward to staying here on future Belleair Beach vacations.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - perfect for our simple needs. Queen bed is a little softer than we're accustomed to, but also futon not shown in listing which helped for 5 adults and 1 baby. Appreciated covered outdoor area to extend our outdoor time in midday. Will stay again!
