I rated this a one star because I feel that guests should know about this manager and this property. Be careful about any little thing that they can charge you for. They will absolutely hose you....
I had a guest parking pass. It is a laminated piece of paper that I forgot and left in the rental car. I realize I should replace it. But, they are charging me $500 for a lost parking pass. If this manager or this property charges that much for a laminated piece of paper, I would stay somewhere else. Imagine if we would have actually broke something of substance.
The property manager is claiming all sorts of costs for this parking pass. All I can say is.... Palm Villas or this manager, whoever is asking for this much money for a laminated piece of paper, I would just stay at a different property and with a different manager all together. I can only imagine how much a broken plate or a lost towel would cost.
The AC in this unit works poorly. I let the manager know. She told me that it was because the switch on the sliding door. We always checked that the door was closed, but it still takes a long time for the unit to cool off. Other than that, the property is fine.
We left the unit better than was asked of the instructions. We cleaned. We did almost all the laundry before we left.
The cleaning lady is great. The property is fine. I would just make sure that I was very, very, very careful about losing or breaking any little thing. It will cost way more than you would ever expect.
I have stayed at many Airbnb properties. I take good care of the properties I stay in. I am always very fair with anything I should pay for, which I can’t recall ever having anything else I have had to pay for. I have never left a bad review before this one. But, this was out of control.
I would be cautious.
