Respectfully, you should not list this property on Airbnb/VRBO/etc. Based on my experience at your property, it seems that you do not want people to be comfortable in the space. You have segregated the entire house for your personal effects, personal pictures, down to your toiletries. Cabinet doors were locked to prevent use by paying guest. Closet doors locked to prevent paying guest from using. A kitchen that you relegate guest to a 1/4 of the space to use. There's an enormous massage chair in the living room that you *charge* for use; but because I didn't want to pay for something that should be included, now I have to navigate the small space to avoid bumping into this chair. Why did I have to see a large personal love note to your boyfriend on the refrigerator? Or, huge wall pictures of you throughout the house? Even in the bedrooms next to the beds you have your pics, which was intrusive. I've never stayed at an Airbnb and thought to myself- I just walked into someone's house and they might still be here.
The property is woefully misrepresented from your ad: cleanliness, layout, proximity to anything, neighborhood, smells, sounds, age of the furnishings, fixtures, appliances, sheets, towels, roosters, frogs, dogs, fruit trees on property, EVERYTHING. The third, lower "bedroom" is the most confusing layout I've seen. The bathroom /shower/sink is not functional or sanitary. The toilet, shower, and sink are in the same small space with no dividers between. Take a shower and water is all over the toilet and sink. If you use the toilet, the entire room smells the action because there's only a shower curtain from the bathroom to the bedroom. There's no exhaust fan. The shower curtain was old, and molded. Body hairs of others throughout the shower floor and sink. The room itself felt like a storage room, not a bedroom and smelled as such. I ended up having my daughter sleep with us because it was so dirty.
The kitchen has roaches and ants. Not a few. Allot. Not cool to wake up to. Most of the space is not accessible by guest because the host LOCKS the cabinets and drawers. There are printed 'Rules of the House' throughout the kitchen (and house) reminding guests to not use things or access areas of the house. The refrigerator has left overs, open containers and condiments, etc left by host and previous guests. This is NOT Covid safe. Imagine checking into the Hilton and finding leftovers, open bottles of beverages, and condiments filling up over half the fridge.
The property was littered with personal toiletries, left food items in cabinets and fridge from past guests and the host. Who knows how long they have been there. If you value cleanliness and acknowledge Covid, you would want to address this. I have communicated this to Airbnb and VRBO.
There are fruit trees. Unless you have an app to identify them, you wont be able to. There's no signage. All the fruit I found are not in season. There are wild chickens and roosters to keep you entertained/annoyed. There's a dog next door that barks all day. Literally. There is a invasive frog species that has the area surrounded and 'chirp' all night. Not a biggie to me, but to be noted.
The description of this property is FAR from actual. Very little is accurate (yes its a house). You say this is a old plantation, which is debatable. What is not acceptable is old, dirty furnishings, old shower curtains with mold, old fixtures with rust and calcium build up, stained towels and sheets. Sticky floors, uncleaned bathrooms, residue on every surface. There's old worn out beddings, linens and towels. Rusted shower rings and curtains. Clean. Clean the unit; remove guests personal items/toiletries/food items. Its gross and unsanitary. Remove these restrictions for being in the space. Its draconian and unnecessary. Your pictures throughout the house is invasive. None of what I experienced is truly captured in the ad- not in words or pictures.
