It was in Galveston.
The sofa bed was not comfortable and linens were not provided for the sofa bed. I had to buy bedding for it. There is a crack in the bathtub and the paint was pealing off the walls.

We were cancelled on 45 minutes before check in due to mold being in the room. The condo management let us know they’ve been trying to contact the owner for over 2 weeks to have it fixed so there could have been plenty of time to let us know but instead we had to scramble and stay away from the Seawall and the rest of our family. Horrible experience using this platform and the lack of responsibility from the owner.

The seasonal pool was heated. It was roomy for the three of us. We used the fireplace to take the chill off in the evening. Lots of parking close to the room. They accommodated an early check in which was very nice.
Dishwasher didn't work. Different codes to get into different gates.

Location was the ONLY thing Good about this stay.
The room was dirty. The door wouldn't lock. Called the front desk about it, and the young lady hung up the phone. Called back 45 mins later and was told to get ahold of the Host, with no information on who the "Host" was. Took Pictures. After doing research of our own when we did find a number and tried calling the "Host" and only automated choices were available. At check out, told the front desk about the smells, filth, and door not locking, she informed saying the "Host" here on property are individually owned.

The kids enjoyed the pool, we tried to stay away from the hotel most of the time because the room was so bad.
When we arrived for check-in the code we were given to unlock the room did not work. After contacting someone from Vacasa, we were instructed that we had to wait on someone from the island to come unlock the door for us. We immediately felt like something wasn’t right and insisted on a refund then, but they informed us it wasn’t an option. After entering, we found a stuffed horse in the main bedroom with a note that said “DO NOT TOUCH contaminated with ANTHRAX!”, there were blood, vomit and urine stains on the main bedroom mattress pad, the ceiling in the bathroom leaked randomly, roaches in the kitchen area, floors were unkept, just overall unsanitary and disgusting. They were kind enough to give us $200 back towards our stay, though we asked for a full refund. This ruined our vacation and we were forced to stay there because we thought we had to stay or be out the $600. We just tried to make the best of a bad situation. Never again.

The pools and the closeness to the ocean.
The front door of our unit was totally broke. Looked like it was kicked in. The patiodoor would not close all the way. Also there was no oven.

The location was great. The pools, and hot tubs were in great condition and clean. the parking facilities were nice and clean.
We were told that there was a couch bed. When we pulled it out, it was broken and unusable. There was only 1 small thin blanket. We were told that there were sleeping arrangements for 5 people. We had to go buy an air matress as well as 3 more blankets and 2 pillow cases at Walmart. When we stripped the sheets off the bed to leave, we noticed that the matress was severly stained with what looked like urine. WE SLEPT ON A URINE STAINED MATRESS!! No remedy was taken through the vacasa people. We had to deal with it.
6.0 / 10.0
it was walking distance to the beach. that's where we planned to spend most of our time. really close to Walmart... very convenient.
the elevator was sketchy. the numbers for the floors didn't work. the telephone box was half hanging on. I only took the elevator if really necessary and that was inconvenient.
The place was very outdated. For the price, I overlooked that. However, the couch was not in any kind of condition for sitting on..definitely could not sleep on it. we had to put the mattress on the floor. The bed in the bedroom was the loudest bed I've encountered to date. the nightstands that are attached to the wall.. slant down. don't use those to put anything on if you don't intend it to be on the floor.
Biggest complaint.... office staff was very unfriendly, and that was sadly the first person we encountered on our vacation there. Off-putting to say the least.

Across from beach, close to restaurants and stores. The bedrooms were nice and comfortable. Two bathrooms. The house was cool and clean. Close to the pool, elevator and trash bend
The sofa and chair need cleaning. No small towels . Had to go out and buy towels. The entrance door need to be painted. I was afraid of what I would see inside after seeing the door.

Bathroom falling apart holes in the ceiling, paneling on the ceiling, falling down crack in the bottom of the tub. Sliding door to the balcony was broken. The entry key system broke the first night. I had to wait hours there for someone to come fix so I could leave.

The pools and location were nice
The elevators in our building were not working which is hard going back and forth to the beach with a lot of things from the 3rd floor. The beds and couch in the condo were awful and so uncomfortable. The key did not work for the dead bolt on the door.

Close to beach
Victorian7103--dishwasher not working, ceiling fan clicking and loud, pullout couch broken and unusable, closet doors broken, big blood stain on one of the mattresses. Advertised as a 3 bedroom, it is a 1 bedroom. Son had to sleep on bunkbed mattress on the floor. My mother who has a broken foot had to scrunch into the bunkbed.
3329 Back to the Beach-- pullout couch broken and unusable, no cord in the phone, blanket that smelled like piss, none of the tvs worked even after putting new batteries in the remotes.
3221--Divine Pearl (totally bad and by far the worst): roaches, panel falling from ceiling in bathroom, sliding door wouldn't shut=room hot all week in the 90+ degree heat, fridge leaking water all over the floor, bathroom door wouldn't close, TV didn't work, dried puke on wall by bunk beds, coffee pot full of gunk, can't flush toilet without lifting the flapper. Advertised as a 2 bedroom, it is a 1 bedroom. Had to sleep on bunkbed mattress on the floor. Killed roaches every day.
There was a bee hive in the elevator and my husband got stung.
The pool was filthy with slime and clumps of hair floating everywhere. Luckily we had our own pool boy (my husband) who skimmed the pool every time we got in.
Avoid!!! Called to report all issues and was told someone would be over to fix. Nobody ever showed up.
This is false advertising!

Location was great, the property was nice and the pools were great
The rooms were rough. The carpet in one of our rooms was wet on half of it. Both hide a beds need to be replaced. The master bedroom was good on both rooms. The sheets were clean and though 1 of the rooms was not ready when we got there at 4 . The Vascasa staff was easy to reach and got the problems fixed quickly.

No breakfast included
I was only provided one key and this made it very inconvenient as my family were traveling in two different vehicles and we had different activities planned on GALVESTON Island. There were absolutely no washcloths in the room, and the sofa bed was horrible (missing springs).

Nothing I love it here!

Clean condo that was fully stocked! Is a nice size. Got to check in early!
No wifi(it worked for about an hour at around 12am the first night)(messaged about it a lot, said would send local person, waited a 1/2 of day the day we check in for the person that came at night after i had text to let know it finally connected and we were good...the next morning it would not connect again so no cartoons for our child while getting ready for the day....when texted to let know not working again told would send local person, no one ever came...text asking when someone would come, told issue was resolved but no connection to wifi, no one ever came issue never resolved) so no TV for the whole stay which was a lil difficult for our child. Elevator was broken for 2 of the 4 days we stayed, so on 3rd floor and 7 flights of stairs were not nice for child or a man with back and leg issues.
5.0 / 10.0
The beach theme in our room. Furniture needs to be upgraded.
Management at front desk was very rude. I didn’t pay all that money to have to wear wristbands at our stay. Management came to pool to check make sure we had them on. I definitely won’t be staying again. They need to not treat this place as if your at an amusement park. i definitely wouldn’t recommend.
