Big disappointment in Fort Myers Beach
Upon arrival at our destination, the first impression was immediately disappointing. Unfortunately, that first impression didn't change while doing the initial walk through. My family was pretty upset as the house was nowhere near our expectation, both inside and out. The photos of the house that we rented where from pre-hurricane and the house was not in good condition when we arrived. There were numerous sub-par things that had either not been corrected post-hurricane or left unattended for quite some time. The host/manager actually came to the house upon our request and we walked through and were able to correct a few things at that time. However, the general upkeep had faltered and it was disclosed that the house was to be demolished for reconstruction after our visit. Overall, this was a disappointment for sure and well below our expectations and our level of previous rentals. The 20% discount the host offered was a nice gesture, but it should have been much higher given the inconveniences we encountered. It is tragic what happened to the Fort Myers Beach area and it would have been nice if the owner had disclosed that this home was not in shape to offer it for stays while others in the area had been fully restored to pre-hurricane shape. We should not have rented this house in the shape it was in. Unfortunately, the owner of the home is not actively involved in the upkeep any longer, per statements made by the contractor who was in charge. more info available
