Other comments online from months ago were correct and felt that most were easy fixes and expected that corrections would have been made by the end of July.
Linens and Towels were included. Max Occupancyv10 and only 8 towels given, and several beds were missing the top sheet. Moved in on Sat took till wed to have linens delivered.
Part of rental was to have a parking pass. Called 7 times over 4 days and never saw the parking pass that I paid for.
Kitchen needs to be supplied better. Occupancy 10 only 7 dinner knives and forks. Only a gridle no fry pan. So, if you want eggs bring your own pan!
Several family members were coughing by the 3rd day which cleared up once we left. One can easily see dirty vents. This property needs a deep cleaning which was also posted on previous reviews and again nothing has been done.
Calling Vacasa was useless. 7 phone calls total over 4 days and their system is a service center located in Oregon. Each time I called they said they were opening a ticket. Wow.
I sent lengthy email with my complaints, and it has been several weeks and no follow up. No surprise there.
Stay away is my best advice.

The size of the home. Following is what we didn't love.
Our stay was disappointing for the following reasons:
1. Could not get into the unit until 4:00, normal check in time. Cleaners were still cleaning and didn't leave until 4:30! They didn't arrive until 3:00 PM and to clean a large 5 bedroom in 90 minutes is telling. It was very obvious that the 90 minutes wasn't enough time to clean 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, kitchen, laundry room, screened porch area, etc. My wife spent hours cleaning this house.
2. All carpets are stained and nasty looking.
3. All table surfaces, including the coffee table and end tables, were dirty.
A brown looking matter found on the shower curtain in the basement bathroom. That bathroom remained unused by my family for the entire week.
4. The return vents were filthy.
5. Furniture throughout the house is stained and in very poor condition.
6. Kitchen pantry had old food left in it. Nasty. If it belongs to the owner it should be locked in the owners closet. If a tenant were to eat some of this food and it was bad, who would be responsible?
7. Cooking items were in poor shape. There was no usable frying pan. We had to call for one which was delivered the next day.
8. Downstairs couch and carpets are disgusting. There was also a bad smell in the basement area. No one wanted to go down there.
9. Dishwasher had mold and is not installed correctly. Tilts forward when opened!
10. There was a leak under the sink that resulted in water on the kitchen floor resulting in a very slippery floor until we discovered where the leak was coming from and mopped up the floor. We were unable to use the sink or the dishwasher until a plumber arrived the next day. Disappointed this wasn't treated as an emergency call with a more prompt fix.
11. Washer and dryer were disgusting. Had to be cleaned and cloroxed before they could be used.
12. We had to wash blankets as they were stained and nasty.
I had to spend a great deal of my time cleaning so I could feel like my grandchildren and family had a safe environment. VACASA did reimburse us the cost of the cleaning fee which we appreciate. Would have much preferred a clean house upon arrival on time and not spend many of my vacation hours cleaning the house. I did discuss my concerns with a VACASA rep who came to the house. He was aware of my concerns and problem areas and indicated that they were already aware of all these issues!
This house has great potential but it needs a major overhaul. Lots of upgrading, repairs and deep cleaning. This was our first experience with VACASA and will probably be our last. In the check in email from VACASA it was indicated that a pool pass for the week was $20 per person per week or $6 per day per person. Upon arrival at the pool we were informed by the woman at the desk that the fees were increased 3 years ago!!! to $30 and $10 and that VACASA needed to update their welcome check in email.
There was supposed to be a parking pass "hanging on the coat rack by the front door on the 1st floor." Not there. One had to be delivered the next day and we had to pay to park on day one.
All these "little" things added up to a very frustrating stay. There is no direct local phone number to the VACASA office. You have to send a text and hope someone calls you back in a timely manner. On the day of departure I was told to return the parking pass to the VACASA office after we left the unit. I also had an email that said to leave it in the unit! I decided to return the parking pass in person not being very confident that if we left it in the unit it would be found! When I arrived at the VACASA office there were four representatives sitting at work stations in a reception type area. I indicated that I was returning the parking pass and I wo...

Loved this home and have booked in for multiple years, but this year was the first time we had issues with the condition of the home. The dishwasher does not work (it's moldy, smells and is not secured), some of the kitchen items like the cutting board have mold; the white outdoor patio cushions are moldy; and the sheets in the upstairs bedroom were stained. We love this spot, but may look elsewhere for future trips.

The house was nice. It was alittle bit dirty and there were alot of spiders and ants. A few things were broken when we got there as well. Main toilet didn't flush bc a piece was broken. One of the bed frames were broken. A hand towel holder was broken and a curtain rod was broken. The back screened in porch didn't lock correctly. If things were updated we would consider renting again.

This was a wonderful, spacious home and accommodated 10-12,some children very comfortably. The house could have been cleaner, especially the dishwasher that had black mold in it! We called and complained to Vacasa and they did say a replacement dishwasher wouldn’t probably happen before our check out date. They did credit us a percentage each day since the amenity of the dishwasher was unusable! And, a couple areas porch furniture and kitchen cabinet could be replaced! On the whole a very nice rental home!

Just finished a full 7 day stay at 526 Doral. The property easily accommodated my family of 10. The property was properly prepared prior to our arrival with clean towels and bedding for each room. There was plenty of space inside and out for everyone to move around freely without being on top of one another.
I’d love to give this rental a 5 star rating but there were a couple of things that stood out which prevents me from doing so. Some of the furniture could use a serious deep cleaning. In the living room, the sofa and carpet had stains. Outside, the patio furniture was heavily stained. Though it didn’t prevent us from using it, it was definitely an eye sore.
Back in the living room area, the main television is too small for such a large entertainment space. Also, there was what seemed to be a surround sound system in the living room with speakers also in the kitchen area. The system didn’t work at all. Short of disassembling everything ourselves and reconnecting the wires, we had to rely on the television itself for sound.
Another thing that stood out was that there was not a television in each bedroom. While this may be a personal preference to some, I don’t think it would hurt to have a tv in each bedroom in such a large house.
Despite the above mentioned eye sores and recommended upgrades 526 Doral is still a great rental. The proximity to the beach and Ocean City makes it a great family friendly rental experience. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone who is looking to visit the Bethany or Rehoboth Beach area while also being minutes from the attractions in OC.

The home was on a quiet cul de sac, nestled among the pine trees, and provided plenty of room for our extended family.

There were issues with the cleanliness of the house. The dishwasher had mold that was still present after running the dishwasher. Imade Vacasa aware of several of the issues: stains on carpet, stains on furniture, ice maker wasn’t working, hole in bedroom closet door, television/cable in main family area was not working. The screened porch was filthy including the cushions on the wicker. The photos on VRBO app were not an accurate presentation of the property. This was the most unclean vacation property I’ve ever rented or stayed. The cleaning crew is not doing anyone any favors. I have video of the mold in the dishwasher if Vacasa needs to see it. The dishwasher wasn’t even permanently installed. We didn’t spend a ton of time at the property, given we were only there for 3 nights. Had this been a week-long vacation- we would have needed to resolve the lack of cleanliness.

This was the first time I rented a vacation home & given my experience I would do it again in a minute. While the home looks a little shabby from the outside (overgrown trees & bushes) it was really nice on the inside. We had 3 couples & we had plenty of space. It was really nice being able to use the screened in porch for hanging out & having breakfast. I would definitely recommend both the area & this house.

Lots of room, we had 10 people, no problem! Close to beach, we walked and also drove when bringing beach gear. 1 parking pass included but if you are not early ( 8-9 am ) no spaces available to use it. The house has nice bedrooms, updated bathrooms, great AC , PLENTY of dishes, utensils, cups, etc.
Washer and dryer were nice to have available. Dishwasher is old and takes 3 hours per wash but is serviceable. Gas stove had 1 burner that would not ignite and was also older. Fridge and freezer were adequate. Pool table room was a favorite! When we arrived it was raining so the 4 parking spaces under the house were appreciated. We would stay again.

Dirty and poor communication
The house itself was very nice. Unfortunately, it was dirty and there was trash left behind and in the yard. There was an abundance of dried up leaves in front of the door and every time you came into the house they were tracked in. This could’ve been illuminated by basically having the grounds crew rake leaves and maybe pull a weed or two. There were significant stains on carpets throughout the house, carpets were not vacuumed, significant dust on walls, broken mirror, spaghetti sauce left on kitchen table, trash left behind and garbage cans inside and outside the house, and the master shower was dirty. These are just a few items. The microwave did not work. When I tried calling the property manager I would be on hold for so long it would send me to voicemail. It took days to get a response to voicemails and emails. We were only provided one parking pass for the beach although the Emily said there should be two. This cause difficulties since we were transporting six adults and three children under the age of six. I would recommend a different property manager, better cleaners, and a land crew. I have pictures to backup my statement!

Long awaited family beach week
We thought the house was great! Spacious, beautifully decorated and fully equipped. Great location from the beach, easy 15 min. walk. Thank you Vrbo, we can’t wait to come back again next summer!!
3.5
Comfortable and convenient
The house was spacious and comfortable. There was ample sleeping and relaxing space. Two beach parking passes were included. The only downsides were: 1. The outside space (porches and patio) were filthy including the chairs and tables. 2. The people at Resort Quest had no clue about the property, how the parking passes worked, or had any information about the Bethany Beach trolley.
3.5
Beautiful Inside!
The interior of this house is very clean and beautiful. It is very close to everything Bethany Beach, restaurants, shopping etc. The only problem we had was it rained so much in Bethany right before we arrived and there was standing water everywhere around the outside of the house therefore there were so many mosquitoes everywhere. Even with that problem we had a great vacation.

Beautiful house and well appointed!
Everything we expected and more!
