We had a great stay at Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. The house was laid out nicely, and it was in a great location, within easy walking distance to restaurants and the beach. The property manager responded very promptly to any issues that came up. The solar-heated pool was not as warm as we had hoped, but other than that, all was great.

When we checked in we loved the house and location. We turned on the tv to watch our normal shows only to find out it was Roku TV. We were promised this whe we booked because my wife had a stroke and when she is tired she wants to watch her shows. We called the manager said she was sorry be could only correct this on 2 of the 5 TV’s and the TV in the kitchen never worked. Next, the bathroom sink stopped up. We called and The plumber came over and after 3 or more hours he unstopped it. Then when we could not turn it on the dishwasher. He said he could not fix it but he would come back. He never did fix it but it did work 3 times during our 23 day stay we finally quit cooking There were many outlets that did not work in the house. When the engineer came he checked everything and Said he could not fix it that this house has electrical problems. Then a few days before we were to leave at 3:30 in the morning the smoke detectors went off and it took us an hour to turn off. No one came. I notified mgmt but no one came. The knives we dull, frying pans we scarred up,and not enough plates and bowls especially with no dishwasher. As I said it was a nice house in a great location but with all these electrical problems which could be dangerous we did not have a pleasant stay.

My family of 4like to travel and we usually book our houses on Vrbo or other sites. This house looked nice with 3 bedrooms, pool, walking distance to the beach. This property had no reviews and we had some doubts but still decided to take a chance. Andy the host was very responsive and replied to all my questions before our booking. On the day of our trip I noticed that we didn't get any house entry instructions. Tried to contact Andy before our flight and after we landed and no response. Wee arrived at the house around 6:30pm and only at 7:17pm we received a text message from Andy after I cay Vrbo customer service. We been contacted by Elizabeth to get the entry code for the house. About the house, the house is spacious and the rooms are nice size. The kitchen well stocked. The mattress in master bedroom too soft in my opinion. The decor of the house looks very tired and needs renovation every thing is not smooth. The master bathroom toilet needs serious service, don’t thing to go no”2 in this toilet! The toilet doesn’t drain very well and slow flush. Be prepared to use plunger a lot. There some burned outlets in the bathroom.The sound system in not active and no way to listen to music and there is a dead roach inside TV cabinet. Solar pool was very cold and only after 3 days some one came by to activate it. But the water in the pool never got warmer a nought a specially when it’s cloudy. The outdoor chairs not the same as on the site and all rusted and 2 chairs broken legs.
