Clean and comfy but in needs of updates
Nice and clean house with a welcoming terrace. The only downgrade was the smell, mold or stale, but even with windows open all day was still there. Of course, would not hurt for some updates on furniture, carpet, rugs and TV.

Home location and amenities where excellent-Vacasa customer service needs improvement
Stayed here for 4 days to attend my Daughter wedding. The home was in a perfect location and was spotless when we arrived. My rating does not reflect the appearance or the amenities in the home, if I did not have to deal with Vacasa, I would definitely stay hear again. Upon arrival we found the Wifi not working on the TV's and all or our devices. This was going to be problem since we would needed our laptops to coordinate with many vendors for the wedding that was going to take place in a few days. I contacted the help number on my reservation and was connected to a national Vacasa rep that could not assist me, she notified me a local rep would call me later in the day. The local rep was very kind, but she was new and could not assist me in troubleshooting the issue. She asked me to text the owner I did, but I never received a response back. Luckily a guest at the wedding was able to repair a faulty cable connection for us. Vacasa notified me that no one was coming in after us and if I would like to extend my stay or a request a late check out. When I did request a late check out, they informed me a late check out was no longer an option but I could extend my stay but the charges were over a 3rd of the cost thatI had paid for a 4 day weekend stay. I asked if I could get a discount or have the additional cleaning and processing fees waived, they said a local rep can only do that, no one from the local office ever called me back. The home is great, Vacasa needs improvement.

Aptos fun
The good: Great price, great location, comfortable space with many different spaces to relax, walking distance to beach and morning coffee, quiet most of the time and comfortable beds and bedding. The not so good: The stove smoked, BBQ was dirty, back deck covered in sap, and upstairs shower not sealed properly.

Let us in.
We came for my grandsons graduation. The location was perfect. Our only problem was entering the property. The keypad did not work, we called, were supposed get a call back in 5 minutes but no one called . We finally got someone who could help us get in. After driving 6 hrs. Not good.
