A WAVE FROM IT ALL - 404 Spring Ave:…read more Pros - Bedrooms/bathrooms (except half bath, see below) - Location Cons - Half bath lock mechanism was difficult to engage. - Kitchen utensils were in dire need of replacement; pots and pans were scratched and warped, knives were dull, plastic plates and bowls had seen better days. Fridge temp was set at 36 degrees. Didn't discover this until the next day after we stocked fridge. Everything on top 2 shelves froze - fruit was unusable afterwards. - The only beach equipment provided were 6 chairs, all the low-to-the- ground type, and one small, worn out beach cart. No beach umbrella. We called about this: They said "Too bad, that's what you get." Had to rent our own regular height beach chairs, a decent beach cart, a cooler, beach toys, and beach umbrella. - Ping pong paddles were worn out, no balls provided; we had to buy some at Publix. - No outdoor shower or hose. Only hose present was hooked up to the pool, unable to disconnect. We had to wash sand off our feet from a faucet behind some bushes.

If you find a place don't delay in booking. I found a rental late one night, took a screen shot of…read moreplace and price so I could call the company the next day to ask a couple of questions before I booked it (waited to book because it was non-refundable). When I looked online and called the NEXT MORNING, the price went up $1,400.00!! I asked if they would honor the price that I had from the night before and I had proof.. I was told if I could send in the pictures and time stamp of it they would honor that price since it was within 24 hours. I did. To my extreme disappointment, they did not. They offered 10% off... What a joke!! The guy that broke the news to me was nice about it (not his fault). Apparently there are no managers to speak to and no one to talk to in the revenue dept (who ultimately made this decision). It is unfortunate they would rather lose your business and potential rental income for someone. Be aware that apparently their prices change DAILY. Clearly it is profit over customer service.

Smoke & Mirrors Property! Moku is a dilapidated Joku! This property was not at all as advertised!…read moreFirst we were NEVER told we'd be required to push or pull a boat. Had we been, I would never even considered this property. Not one of us is over 120 lbs, i actually dislocated my upper rib & we are all covered in bruises from that ridiculous experience. My best friend pulled her right shoulder, we have driven boats before yet have never been asked to push or pull one lol. This was not a normal situation we were tossed into at all. Then to find out it was way more than occasionally we'd need to do this, as the pre papers said (that came only 5 days before check in), it was every single time we needed to leave. The back "deeper" dock wasn't even there for 3 days, it was GONE, Not just under construction as we were told on our way to pick up the boat to head over lol. That front dock is inadequate for the way those channels have shifted and every other dock over there is so much longer... I'm sure because they need to be so someone doesn't get hurt pushing a 22' pontoon boat! Private beach - is not at all as pictured. It's full of old palms & a mess. Dirty just like the inside of the house. If you advertise a beautiful beach, there should be one. Dilapidated & unkempt palm trees everywhere. I know i have them all over my yard except we have them trimmed regularly as you should. Our view has dangling brown branches & they were falling all over the deck. Wheelbarrow full of old water & a chainsaw - it's a shame at what shape this place is left in. Needed vacuum & mop immediately bc it was filthy - whole pieces of bacon & open bags of cookies were left behind on the floors so when we moved the couch a bit it was disgusting. - You absolutely did send them to us immediately & we definitely used. Old food & rotten ice cream left in downstairs fridge, so my mother & 80 year old aunt cleaned it out for you as she couldn't stand it being in there smelling up her food. Lol Water dumping from air vent in the downstairs master. The vent is covered in black & yellow substances. It reeks of mold in there. My mother has CPOD & after 3rd night finally realized she's having breathing attacks because of the air in there. She moved to the trundle upstairs but my aunt Donna had nowhere else to go so she eventually ended up in our closet upstairs on a mattress. We did notify Michale about the issue with the vents when he was there but he basically said someone would have to check it out. Which meant nothing lol. This same moldy Oder was in the main house most of the time so we needed to keep the doors open. Under the kitchen sink was also leaking & had a pile of rags stuffed under it... that had turned rancid & molded. We didn't see it till we were going nuts finally cleaning everything bc it was just so much at that point. As we had no reason to be under that sink till the garbage disposal stopped working. Hot water was insufficient - this property says accommodated 15. We couldn't fill the bathtub completely without the water turning cold. Yes, George absolutely fixed this when he came out the next day. Pool touch screen wasn't working Sonos never worked - we told Michael when he was out and he basically tried to connect to it and said it just doesn't work sometimes when he couldn't get it to work. No pool table - it just doesn't exist lol Broken dryer downstairs plus Broken washer & dryer upstairs - we didn't know until we went to do laundry because we didn't want to take the little bugs home in our laundry. Last night - no we did not opt to stay in another one of your air bnbs lol. After our experience we were in we chose to vacate & pay for a hotel. Where we could get served & everything worked!

I'm so sad to write this review because honestly, the property was very nice. We had almost no…read morecomplaints. And then came the charges after we left. Keep in mind I had had multiple phone conversations, we confirmed a one month rental while we waited to close on our house, and everything seemed on the up and up. Then they said we hadn't informed them there would be dogs and there was a pet fee. I replied oh yes I did, it was the first email I sent and the first conversation we had in late June. They said well whatever we are charging you. I said no, I told you about the dogs, and we negotiated the month long rental fee which I agreed to pay, and you already knew about the dogs so I assumed it was in that total amount. Then came the rudeness, the gaslighting, and shutting me down. They are not interested at all in customer service, even though I have in writing that I informed them of the dogs. The dogs were part of the deal from the beginning. They charged the card they had on file without my approval and with no additional paperwork signed. On their invoice, it tells you you can go to YapStone Inc if you have complaints about the charges. I did, and followed the info to Florida. The number they tell you to call for Yap immediately is picked up and hangs up on you. So clearly not a legit business number. They also give you a number for Florida Office of Financial Regulation, but THAT number is a scam trying to sell me fake Medicare. Wow wow wow. So now not only do I think the company is just unethical and rude, but I am wondering if this is a fraud scheme from top to bottom because their payment processing company clearly isn't a legit business. There are lots of rentals in Florida folks, look elsewhere and get it from a mom and pop owner who won't scam you like this.

Vacation Renters Beware! We booked and paid for a vacation rental 3 months in advance, had a…read moresigned contract for the rental, received multiple confirmation emails and phone calls... then got a phone call 3 days before check-in that our "rental was double-booked" and they needed to move us to a different rental. There were not any comparable units available with the key elements of the unit we had already paid for - updated furnishings, sleeps 6, a pool and across the street from the beach, and they didn't offer a discount for these "less than" alternatives. They did refund my money, including all the "add on fees" that added over $500 to our 3-day rental price... and blamed it on the owner of the unit. NOT an honest and just business practice. Book with another vacation rental agency so you don't get stranded like we did!

However, we had two men show up, unannounced and walk in the back yard while my daughter was swimming, and she was frightened as the game laughed and said, "well, I guess we scared her off", bc she bolted inside understandably. When I called and emailed to express my understanding that the homes needed upkeep, but I request to be notified first, they took no accountability, made an insensitive attempt of an apology, then proceeded to defend the actions, saying the men are pool guys who don't work for the company. I found this odd, bc the truck the men came in one was same Sato truck parked in front of their business. The next day, another man came into the back unannounced and did the lawn on a Saturday mid morning. We could have been cooking out swimming or etc.. No privacy, basic consideration, and integrity were given by this company. Sad bc the owners must be loosing money with the lack of customer service, but they may have no clue. I will not be renting from them again.
