The property that was rented by this owner is not beach front nor beach side. It is across a busy street with a view of the CVS pharmacy drive through. The picture of the beach with chairs and umbrellas, is misleading as they are not included with the rental. VBRO is “rental by owner” and while part of this property might be considered beach side - this owners property is not and it should specify that in the listing. The front office says guests are always being told beach front property, when in fact the units are not beach front. This should not be the norm, that “it happens all the time” with rentals by owner. VBRO charges a fee for admin costs, they should be making sure the property descriptions are accurate. Another frustration, the Owner did not notify the check in office that this property had been rented to us and we had to spend extra time trying to figure It out with the front desk. - it was an expensive lesson as we were so disappointed we took a loss and checked out early. We will not be using VBRO again.
