The purpose of this visit was for me, husband to visit my brother (a disabled Viet Nam Vet), his wife, and adult grandson. We drove from Indianapolis, met them in Springfield, MO and they joined us for the rest of the drive to Pointe Royale.
The resort is laid out well, the grounds attractive. This building's exterior is poorly maintained while the rest of the community looked well maintained. The interior of condo: No weather stripping on exterior doors, consequently temp reached 79 degrees. Interior has recently been painted - which includes painted sinks and wet bar.? Several closet doors were off their tracks. Shower floor had also been painted and was like glass when wet. One bedroom on lower level smelled of mold/mildew and person sleeping there had reaction and had to cut stay short. The kitchen was lovely (best part of condo) but sparsely furnished. Fireplace was full of ashes. There were very few towels for six adults, so we had to spend the first day of our two day stay shopping for and laundering towels for all to be able to shower. The balcony and patio overlook a street which was a great disappointment from the advertised "great location." Pool and patio had so many swimmers the water looked cloudy and there were no chairs on which to sit.
We have vacationed at many properties offered on VRBO and have never been quite this disappointed. We paid five-star rates and received three-star accommodations.
