We really enjoyed our stay at the house, but our experience was mixed, to be fair. The home itself is outstanding. It looks just like the pictures. Beautiful grounds and an outstanding master bedroom. It is spacious and nicely decorated. The management at first seemed very responsive for the most part. After checking in, we asked if there we more hangers available, and a little later, brand new hangers appeared at our front door which was so nice. However, really good management is proactive and not reactive. It soon became clear that no one from the management company had done a walkthrough of the property for quite a while. A drawer in the master closet was in pieces when we checked in and all the towel hooks in one of the bathrooms were off the wall, one was inside a drawer. There were many, many signs of wear and tear that a professional management company should have addressed. The most frustrating experience we had was with the Sonos speakers by the pool. Music was barely audible, even if you were sitting next to the speakers. We inquired multiple times about the low volume over the first few days of our stay and were dismissed each time - no other way to put it. The response was that there are strict noise ordinances for the area that can't be violated. Meanwhile, for three consecutive days, the people in the neighboring property - which is managed by the SAME company - were throwing huge parties. We could hear their music but not ours, and there were people literally throwing up in the street outside the house. However, the answer for us was we couldn't violate the noise policy. It was lazy management and it seemed like they were running it remotely, only dispatching vendors for issues. When they realized we were losing patience, they finally sent someone over and he witnessed there was a real problem with the volume settings and corrected it.
The bottom line is that the house is really great, but they really need to step up their game. There are a lot of missing details. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots/pans/utensils, etc. but missing a lot of staples like olive oil, red pepper or chip clips, etc. The pool is wonderful, but there wasn't one noodle or float (there are 3 now, and a pump - you're welcome). It would be nice to have a remote for the garage door rather than an app. These things didn't necessarily stop us from enjoying the house, but I wouldn't be comfortable renting from the same company again based on our experience.
