Nice home in a quiet neighborhood close to our family. The house is perfect for families. Now, the disappointment. Upon arrival the âpool fun for familiesâ was not anything like the captivating photo in the listing. Swamp green and pretty smelly. Kids were pretty upset. Temps were pretty hot in FL that week. Several communications back and forth yielded no immediate results. My argument for 3 days of pond green pool is you should have a pretty dependable pool guy or, be equally knowledgeable of pool maintenance. The 4th day saw some improvement. However, the chemical concoction would likely not been healthy for the kids. On the last day we deemed the water safe for the kids to swim in. I was going to wait to soak in a more maintained pool at our next property. A modest refund didnât take the sting out of a rental that didnât live up to its listing photo. I will note that the owner apologized for the debacle. I appreciate that. Closing: If a property is going to be advertised as a pool oasis, ongoing monitoring would be an absolute necessity. This would avoid any unwanted surprises to the guest. For guests to comply with check-in check-out and general good guest behavior, theyâd expect the host to uphold their end of the bargain or maybe change the listing to exclude the pool until it is figured out. I might be back though as an opportunity to try it again.
We really enjoyed ou time here. The private pool was nice to have on days we didn't travel to Disney or the beach. Cocoa beach is just a 1 hour and 9 minute drive away and Disney resorts were 45 minutes away. Casselberry has a lot to offer with restaurants and shopping close by. Perfect place to enjoy a vacation! Thanks!
This property was perfect for our vacation and we felt at home. It was clean and had amenities that made our vacation worry free and fun! The neighborhood made us feel safe and was close to many fun destinations. Our host was available and kind! The pool was the cherry on top and was so relaxing. I wouldn't hesitate to book this property again! Thank you so much Christine!
Great space for the family, beds were very comfortable, plenty of towels and toiletries. some minor things need improvement but I get it, not everyone is going to treat it like their own home. The outside needs to be cleaned better, the entrance had cobwebs on the door the outside light didnât work and although too cold, the pool could use a cleaning, maybe power wash the grounds
home needs some repairs and updating. pool was great but needed vacuuming big problem with electric all lights flickered heavily especially when using appliances some turned off completely.
We were in Casselberry, FL to celebrate and attend our daughterâs graduation from UCF. Weâd never Vrboâed before. The graduation activities and commencement were perfect! Our rental enhanced EVERYTHING! The location was perfect to our graduates condo, shopping, dining and all UCF events. The property was well maintained, well decorated, spotlessly clean, with a beautiful pool! Christine provided all the amenities we needed. The kitchen was well appointed and the baths had plenty of towels. Even little things like dish and hand soap were provided. Our daughter has two years of UCF grad school starting in the fall. We will rent againâŠand againâŠandâŠ

Thanks for a great experience!
We were in the area for a festival and the house was perfect for our three generations of family. Although too chilly to swim, the backyard area was great. The beds are especially comfortable and we will stay again when weâre in the area. Thank you again!
The host was very kind and responded quickly. The house was very clean except for the floors, they were still a bit dirty. Other than that, the house had exactly what we needed - space for my family.
Stayed here in a group of 4 for four days. Check in was a breeze, the host communicated perfectly with us. The pool was nice and cool, only some leaves were stuck at the bottom from the Hurricane a day before. The wifi wasnât working the first night due to the storm too but was fixed next day. Only needed a bit more cleaning such as I noticed some dust around but perfect besides that. Only about 25 minutes from Downtown Orlando. Would definitely stay again!
Wonderful place to lay your head! Three sisters who couldnât get enough of our family time with our aunt and her family in Maitland. Property was clean, well-stocked kitchen, the pool look lovely but the temperatures were over 100 and humidity was high so we spent very little time outside. Highly recommend Christine and her VRBO.
The owner was very nice and helpful but the property needs work for the price.
There was no washing machine and dryer which apparently was not listed so that was my fault for not checking. I just assumed there would be one. Dishwasher not working Ice machine not working / missing shelf in fridge
Oven not working / owner suggested switching the breaker but we decided not to use the oven Water turned off for non payment which the owner handled very quickly and offered a $50 credit One bedroom had weird wiring where the fan was wired to a can light in the ceiling and could not have fan on while light off
Rotten fence around pool No chairs or outside furniture to enjoy pool Yard needed work Does not wash comforters in between renters but has clean sheets and towels It is an older home that has been renovated but poor quality work.
Coffee bar was cute and owner stocked kitchen well
The owner was very nice and thoughtful and the location was great to be near family It has the potential to be a nice rental property but just needs some work or a lower price point.
