The worst vacation rental I have ever stayed in, DIRTY!!

Once I arrived to the room, I checked the sheets and bedding as usual and I found someone’s freaking false eyelash glued to the sheets and to top it off the pillows had lipstick stains and makeup residue on them. I called the property manager asking for new sheets since I arrived and NEVER got any. I was so upset, I called numerous times asking for new pillows, sheets and covers and the property manger was careless. Don’t stay here if cleanliness is your top priority!! Because you will not get it. My stay was gross and disgusting.

Not what I was expecting. But you get what you pay for

Received two texts about free early check in, responded to the text letting them know we accept and we’re headed up to the room only to be told 20 minutes later we couldn’t access it yet because it wasn’t ready even though we were already standing in the room with our luggage on the floor because we were told twice before 1:00 we could check in early. Had to pack up everything we brought up back to the car and didn’t receive a text for check in until 4:15, which check in was originally 4:30 before we was offered early check in. They Blamed cooperate so obviously they lack communication with one another. The room looked the same as it did when we arrived for the “early” check in so it obviously wasn’t “cleaned” as they claimed it needed to be. Hair was in the sheets , everywhere. Corner of bed frame was dirty and had dead bugs. The shower is broke and based off other reviews they are obviously aware of the issue since others left reviews about it and it’s never been fixed. It’s a very outdated condo that needs some TLC. Would I stay again? Absolutely not.

Not great.

Overall the room was nice, but not super clean. The floors were dirty. My toddler's feet were black like she had been walking around in a grocery store. My husband went to use a knife and it still had some dried up peanut butter on it that he had to wash off. Needless to say, I went and bought my own Lysol wipes to wipe everything down. We have a boat and this listing said that the dock was damaged due to the most recent hurricane. I had previously messaged someone on AirBNB that has a condo at Pirate's Bay to see if it was repaired yet. She said yes parts of it were available for use. After that, I messaged someone from Vacasa on VRBO asking if the boat slip for this particular room was still being repaired. He replied that it was available for use at this time. I booked the room. Day of check in comes and they never send me the boat slip number. I called customer service to ask if I could get the boat slip number because we had already launched the boat at the public boat launch and my husband was just floating around in the Santa Rosa sound with nowhere to go. Customer service kept arguing with me saying the docks were under repair. She just kept saying the boat launch was available and was at Liza Jackson Park but not the docks (clearly not knowing the difference between a boat launch and boat slip). It wasn't until I went back to my inbox and actually screenshot and forwarded the conversation about this boat slip being available that they would give me the boat slip number. Super inconvenient and Vacasa staff needs to be more informed about their rentals.

Our vacation

My husband and I have stayed at Pirates Bay multiple times. We enjoy the area, pool, and loved watching the boats going through the bay. However, we had trouble using the push button key entrance at the door. There were several times we were stranded outside as the pad just continually blinked red. I believe the batteries are almost dead. Also, the thermostat would not hold below 72. I really cannot sleep comfortably at that temperature. We did purchase a standing fan for the stay.

Go else where

This property should not have been rented. The shower was broken and a make shift fix was done that did not work. The sliding glass door handle was ready to fall off and that was because it took lots of muscle to get the door to open. Using the balcony was one of the reasons I booked this condo. The door was so rusted it was very hard to open without the use of the handle. This property needs some attention before renting again. Beware

Super cute and so bc reasonably priced! Great value and perfect for two people!?I B loved the Mickey Mouse shaped pool and at night it’s lighted and flows with alternating colors! Absolutely gorgeous! My husband loved that we were right on the water where he could fish from the dock - super quiet with nice landscaping and grill area. My fav part was the deck overlooking the water and watching the beautiful Florida sunsets 🌅- stunning! Highly recommend!

Overall - its fine

Over all it was fine . It is small , I would say it is more of an efficiency . It does not look like a condo building , more just like an older apartment building . the first evening the pool was dirty , the loungers looked like they had black mold on them , however , the next morning I did see someone cleaning the pool and checking the Ph levels. It's a good pool size , and it's 6.5 feet deep. The description say four adults but it would be really crowded with four adults . The space its self was very clean and the decor was nice - great beach vibe decor. Limited towels no in house washer dryer you have to pay to wash and one day the elevated seemed to be broken - I didn't really mind walking the 3 flights of stairs especially in the morning . I never found the beach access other than driving To the beach . Over all the only real complaint that I have is the head board . There is a gap between the headboard and the wall so if you're on the bed watching tv or doing your zoom class , any movement you make the headboard slams into the wall. The bathroom was clean and a good size , and had hot water .
