Nice proximity to the beach but not clean

The kitchen was infested with roaches. The walls had food spills and the furniture had multiple stains. The living room rug was so filthy, we rolled it up to keep the baby from playing on it. There were 5 lights with blown bulbs. The downstairs and master bedroom fans did not work properly. There was mold in the master bath ceiling and the back door lock was broken.we will not rent from them again.

Find a different house

Location, beach and pool were fantastic. Bedrooms/bathrooms were all clean. Layout/space of the house was great. Nice washer/dryer. Walls, furniture, and vents were filthy. We didn’t sit as a family in the family room bc the furniture was so dirty. There isn’t much deck furniture to enjoy any of the decks. We had family close by and could spend time at their house, luckily. Rent your own beach chairs - the ones provided are in disrepair. We didn’t have sinks that drained in the master and the main level of the house was 91 degrees when we checked in. The cleaning people were still there when we arrived at 4:30 and tried calling the property manager for us so we could speak directly with them. They wouldn’t speak to us and instead texted us. After hours of no solution, and multiple calls, we called VRBO to assist. Once we did that, we were able to speak with someone and the air conditioning was eventually fixed that evening. We rent 3-4 properties per year and have never had issues like this before - I would not rent another home managed by Vacasa.

Lovely house

Stayed in this house last year and loved it. This year it is evident that house needs some TLC, such as grout broken in shower, dusty ceiling fans and bathroom vents, and roaches in the kitchen cabinets. Please put out some bait and remedy this problem.

Glynn Cottage

Great, beautiful location, but found that mattress pad revealed old stains after stripping bed as host requested. Intense cleaning needed throughout. Floors needed deep mopping, we don’t wear our shoes inside and our socks were filthy. Furniture throughout also needed cleaning. Pictures can be deceiving. Beautiful location! Management not willing to reimburse cleaning fee due to my reporting of issues upon day of leaving. Lesson learned: read other reviewer comments.

Absolutely perfect!

We were completely impressed with this home. We came to SSI for a family vacation after my son's college graduation. We walked in and it was HUGE! And so clean (which is important to me). Everything about this house was pleasant; the high ceilings, the checkerboard table off the living room, tbe little sitting room downstairs, all of the different patios. We will definitely be back for another visit!

Mother’s Day Weekend

We had an absolutely wonderful time in this amazing VROB. Plenty of room for the entire family. Having bedrooms on different floors with everyone having a private bath was such a bonus. My favorite part was the big kitchen table. Having all our meals with my entire family was priceless. Best Mother’s Day ever!

Great spot.

We loved this house. We had two families of 5 staying for a total of 10 people. Ranging from 2 to 50. The house is very large with modern amenities and clean (we have high standards for cleanliness. The pool is nice and we had a great time meeting other families from the community. It is an extremely short walk to the beach and the beach is nice. You also don’t have to cross any busy streets which is important if you have little kids. We would stay here again.

Pros: We had a great time. The house is located very close to the beach and is a super property. Cons: The ice maker in the fridge did not work, and they could use some extra blankets for the beds.

Wonderful location!

We had a wonderful experience staying here! Only a few comments I would make: 1. Beds and pillows need to be updated, all mattress were hard as a rock and pillows barely held your head. 2. Please provide more cleaning supplies (I.e. dust buster, dust pan etc). 3. Need large pot for low country boil cooking which most people do while at the beach. Again, thank you for a fun filled stay and we hope to come again!!!

Wonderful location!

Beautiful house close to the beach, pool, and only a short walk from multiple restaurants and attractions. This rental is very spacious but could use a little TLC/updates. I did have a conversation with the property rental company (Vacasa, who I guess rents this property through VRBO) that insisted only two parking passes would be offered and that only two cars would be able to fit parked in front of the rental. However, when I arrived the customer service rep had left three parking passes and three cars can fit in front of this house very comfortably. So I was a tad confused by that. Some of the sheets, while I'm sure they had been cleaned, had some stains on them and the couches on the 2nd floor did as well. As a previous renter said, at night there was a bit of a bug problem, mainly on the 2nd floor where the kitchen is and some reported seeing bugs on the 1st floor as well. The toilet paper roll holder in the half bath is still broken, as indicated by a previous renter. The door that leads to the rooftop deck has trouble latching and either needs to be pushed closed or slammed. Overall the house is beautiful. Lots of space, multiple patios to enjoy, and a great view from the top deck on the roof. The keypad entry made coming and going very easy. I would recommend and would consider staying here again.

Family holiday

As a whole, we were very pleased with Glynn Cottage. The location was convenient to restaurants with easy access to beach and pool. The sofa coverings in the major living area were soiled and in need of refurbishment. The tv in that area had no cable connection. Would we return? Yes
