VM1: Villas M1

The house was filthy, the kitchen was filth

We checked in after the 4pm time per the cleaning window. When we arrived, the entire house was filthy - sand all over the floors downstairs, residue/crumbs/gross all over the kitchen resulting in us having to clean when we arrived, sand on the coffee table and couch - upstairs, nothing had been vacuumed: there was a dead bug in the hallway, chips ground in to the carpet and trash on the floor. In all 3 bathrooms, soiled washcloths and towels from previous guests were strewn about. I contacted the host the next day and housekeeping came to clean, however, the soiled and previously used washcloths and towels remained. On the third day, they were finally removed. Our space was overall ok but the lack of cleanliness when we abided to our contracted check in time of 4pm to allow for cleaning made the stay very difficult. I spent 3 of our 5 day stay getting the house cleaned. Host was responsive but seemed to not take issue with the condition of the house upon arrival. Would not recommend.

Very nice community to be a part of for a week. My family felt very welcomed and my 10 and 3 year old loved the clean well maintained pools nearby. With 2 community pools it was nice to be able to see if one pool was less crowded. One day we had a whole pool to ourselves for hours! The location was perfect, with sound side and ocean side beaches less than 5 mins away by car and plenty of touristy things in the area too. The house was nice and well maintained and accurate to the pictures.

There is some strong odd smell in the first floor. Other than that everything was good

We had a great stay!
