SCAM! I have never left a review in my life but my experience here was so awful I felt I need to warn others.
I had a family emergency and needed to cancel last day. Air Bnb offered to refund the last night fees minus service fees and cleaning. However, Host came back with a scam and said I needed to pay him half the refund monies owed me and only then would he remind me me. But he did he would only refund half the amount paid not full amount as Air Bnb offered.
What a scam. Asking me to pay him upfront before he would release my other money.
Who pays someone money first to get?
Also important to note:
Again, crazy bit Air Bnb.
Also Air BnB does not guarantee I would get my money- saying it is up to host. I have never in my life heard of such a crazy thing!
Let me add also that after I made the reservation to help with Wave 5 data, it was “lost. ” And even though I sent screenshots of payment Host would not honor it or the price. He said I needed to rebook. . So I had to rebook and the second time he raised the price.
I was a VRBO owner for several years and was shocked at this “bait and switch” technique. The host then tried to claim he was not the owner and could not help me or honor original price. Really bad customer service.
Shame on me, this should have been a red flag not to rent from him.
My message to would be renters. I would not rent from him, BE CAREFUL!
Do your homework there a lot better places closer to the beach.
Sadly I even read all his reviews and they were all so good I thought for sure it was going to be a positive experience. It was a nightmare!!
Also all the knobs and faucets etc in the bath are corroded and the window into bedroom is very intrusive.
