We had a great time on our annual summer Jamaica beach vacation. No complaints about the house. Communication was good, beds were comfy, everything was as advertised. We loved the dock to fish, pool to swim in that is covered by the house, and the hot tub is nice and hot. Can’t wait to stay again.
Very nice and clean home, would stay again. They have everything you need for your stay. Bikes, kayaks, beach toys for the kids. We really enjoyed our stay here!
We had a great time. Highly recommended. It is indeed the perfect place to do anything, we fished, kayaking and alot of stuff to do. The only thing that is missing/recommend probably a chair lift for disabled people or old folks who are not able to walk or having difficulty walking. Thanks!
I would give the experience a 10 except that we had a problem at check-in with the door code to enter house. The number provided would not unlock door and we had to use a housekeeping key from a lock box for our entire stay, even though i asked several times if they could update/correct code but. The correct code given did allow us to enter the garage door. Other than that, we loved the house and location so much we've already booked for next summer!
The house was stunning and we had such a great experience! The house was very comfortable with large master bedrooms for the adults and bunk rooms for the kids. It was a perfect setup and we had a great time. It’s a beautiful home and the experience was 10 out of 10!
We really enjoyed this house and would stay again. It was super clean. The layout was perfect for our group. The pool and hot tub worked great and were simple to operate. It was great to have a covered pool and patio. The kitchen had everything we needed. My only critique would be to add a gas grill. Had not used a grill like the one provided in years. Communications were simple, clear and prompt when needed.
The interior and exterior of the property was not properly cleaned.Windows were dirty, sliding door frames full of dead mosquitoes No hot water for the first two daysDishwasher was broken had to be replaced during our stay. Under sink was damp/musty/dirty Kitchen gas stove and cook top were filthy Bed linens and bath towels were old and stained.Lamp shades in primary bedroom water stained Dining and living room furniture badly stainedToilet bowl cleaning brushes and plunger left on bathroom floor Live roaches in the kitchen, roach droppings in every cabinet and drawerBoat deck was covered in bird fecesBikes not useable, rusted with flat tiresFishing equipment not usable. Overall impression,The property was not the "LUXURY" property indicated/listed on the VRBO website. We would NOT recommend this property to your clients until items listed have been resolved.The list of the items/issues above were submitted and received by the management team regarding our concerns. They responded with a written "apology".
The house itself was great, But some of the amenities needed attention. The grill is totally rusty had to put foil all around it. The kitchen has the bare minimum for a house of this caliber. And the dishwasher had a smell of mold, maybe filter needed to be replaced. The picture showed a bedroom with a coffee maker and hairdryer but it didn’t have one. The internet was a problem the code they gave us was for another internet but we got the tv working with it. The biggest problem was the hot tub it was connected to the internet and would not work someone came out and got the heat going for the pool & the hot tub but couldn’t get the jets working. And you have to pay extra for the hot tub it’s not included with the price of the house. Beach Box was great on responding. Hot water heater went out and they had someone come out that day. Need to bring extra towels and cup towels. The location was amazing, kids fished on the canal and across the road. I would rent again from Beach Box, host, not sure about this house unless they could assure me everything was working correctly. Overall we had a great time just disappointed about the hot tub. And coffee maker. We had a lot of coffee drinkers in our group. Again the Host were great to work with better than most.
