upon arrival, the first 2 nights no heat, place was filthy, curtains falling off windows, toilet leaking, shelves falling off wall, found food under living room furniture with ants, the gas grill was like someone cooked a rubber tire on it, when I lit it I thought I was going to burn down the house, the flames were shooting out the back about 3 feet in the air and it ran out of propane. The shrubs were literally growing into the pool, which they ended up cut down. The original pics on web showed some grass for pets, there was none, the grass is actually outside the fence. The picture of street they show on the website with tall palm trees, and nice and quiet is actually about 10 miles away which is where the beach is. The screen door was/is ripped & would not close. The washer drains outside south side door on top of ground, If you use that
door you track in dirt and grey water to the floor. The kitchen light worked intermittently, beds are terrible to sleep in, noisy and very worn out. After we finally got owner to show up, it turns out she knew about all the issues, and the cleanliness issues, she said she replaced the cleaning crew, and we spent the first 12 days of our 29 days with her, her workers and contractors attempting to fix and clean the house. she thanked us for letting her improve for the next renter. She did fix most of the issues at our inconvenience, but we still wasted almost 1/2 of our time being available for her, her maintenance crew and contractors, we asked for a partial refund and were denied. While there, the house directly across the street spent most of Friday and Saturday nights blowing and air horn that sounded like a train in the front yard, and we also got attacked by a 80 lb. bulldog that lives 2 houses south and across the street as we were walking our dogs. the last item, about 2 weeks there a contractor shows up at door, wants to take pictures of pool and tells us they will be coming in the next couple days to dig up the patio and look for a leak in the pool, that it loses water every couple weeks...We did decline to allow that to happen and were granted a delay for pool repairs. needless to say, The refusal to refund anything is a huge item after this stay in fort pierce and it also shows that VRBO does not check on the properties they advertise and make sure they are as they say. I will do my best to not use VRBO ever again and will say this house could be a nice place to stay if they put some effort into it, I hope the next people that rent this do reap the rewards of our disappointment.
