I had a previous property rented already but they called and cancelled it on me. Which of course I had no choice but to find another property on my own. The property had many issues. The number one issue was it wasn't safe. Not for children! The windows and doors did not lock! We were staying on the top floor of the building. It was dirty, loud, the master bed was broke, the building itself was old and disgusting. There is an entire list of issues but the unprofessional office staff could careless. I emailed them the day we left early and they didn't even email me back but lied and said they did. They don't email you back or call you back. We were promised a phone call back from the owner and that didn't happen either. The office staff is disrespectful. Take it from me, DO NOT RENT FROM THEM! The don't care about you! They only care about money!!

Refuses to listen to your concerns. Refuses to shut up long enough to hear what you are saying. Then wants to STEAL your money. Well, he got the right one this time. I will burn 100 dollar bills to make sure he never does it to anyone else. Fortunately for my family a few thousand dollars stolen doesn't make or break our trip, but for someone else it absolutely could. I have plenty of photos of the temp in the house and the master bedroom was always at least five degrees warmer than what the thermostat reflected. My husband just got done receiving cancer treatments to try and stay alive. We finally get a break from the last year of dealing with that and come for vacation just to have to deal with these thief's. We moved to a new house right down the street and guess what we do not have a problem with...the AC unit keeping the house a comfortable 71 degrees. Then he goes in the house after we leave, sets the temp to 68 and takes a photo to try and claim we were trying to cool things too quickly. Really looks stupid when I have a time sand date stamped photo and video when we walked out and it was set to 70 but the temp in the house was crawling back up and was at 73. STAY AWAY FROM BRAD AND ANYTHING HE IS MANAGING! If I could give this review a zero I would

JUNE 2025 - DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY…read more I booked unit T34 in Siesta Key for our family vacation. We drove 9 hours to arrive at a unit that is unfit for occupancy and surely illegal to be advertised as anything else. These are a few of the issues we noticed in the short time we stayed before having to leave and book another accommodation for the week. - Mold on ceiling - Broken sleeper sofa, - Food debris in utensil drawers - Broken patio door with suction handles attached as a "repair" - Broken patio furniture - Trim and paint throughout the entire unit was disgusting and falling off - Fire escape stairs next to unit were closed off and marked "Danger", irony at its finest I attempted to call the company about moving to another one of their units with no answer. Left a VM on their "emergency line" with no call back. I sent several emails to the company around 5-6pm and did not hear anything back. I had to book an entirely different accommodation to try and save our family vacation. This was not a cheap or easy feat given that it is the first week of summer in a highly touristy area of Florida. Colin finally replied at 11am the following day and was quick to dismiss my request for a refund after providing all of this info and the pictures. He stated that they would not be refunding me as I left them "hanging out to dry" and they couldn't rebook anyone for the week. Their concern was the money and not the fact that they needed to address these issues in the condo BEFORE rebooking anyone. It is unfit for occupancy. I was told that they have an emergency line which goes out to someone immediately and they would have gotten back to me the night before. I informed Colin that I did call the emergency line and left a VM to which he replied "I'll have to check with the guy that handles voicemails". So now after paying for a new AirBNB an hour and a half from this first experience, I am left to file a chargeback with my bank and attempt to get my money back from these scam artists. Colin made sure to tell me "you will have to go through your bank". They know a refund is due and want to attempt to push it out until it is forgotten about. I will also be submitting all of this documentation to BBB. DO NOT rent from these people unless you feel like gambling on showing up to a dump and losing your money.

Robert and Janet R Bradenton, FL…read moreTwo years ago, my wife and I decided that it was time to move to Florida. We wanted to rent in the Sarasota area but found places were going very fast! Then we came upon a rental from Florida West Coast Property Management and got in contact with Aimee Bahk. We knew we had to move quickly and Aimee helped get us through the process with ease! Aimee was friendly and professional. She knew the steps we were required to take for us to be approved as renters. Aimee quickly responded to any questions we had during the process. Once our move was successful, Aimee continued to keep in touch. We only had a couple of maintenance issues, which we considered normal, so we notified Aimee. Her response was fantastic! Aimee quickly got the help we needed for the repairs. On more than one occasion, Aimee would say "I appreciate you" as tenants. Well, we appreciate Aimee and want to thank her for all she has done to make our dream a reality!

You might say we were in an unhealthy, co-dependent relationship with our former management company. As in most relationships, it took a crisis for us to realize how badly our former manager was; our former tenant basically sold the property furniture out from under us and the manager claimed ignorance. Anyway, I digress. We were fortunate to have been referred to Florida West Coast Property Managers ("FWCPM") by a realtor when we were considering selling our property. The difference between our former management company and FWCPM could not be greater. Our manager Aimee Bahk is professional, courteous, and a delight to work with. She has helped us through many difficult situations such as finding new tenants and managing repair and installation work orders. If you are in need of excellent management for your rental property on the Florida west coast, look no further than the staff at Florida West Coast Property Management.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!!! Please do your research and read the reviews on Yelp. This owner was…read moreabusive, degrading, and unprofessional. He then tried to threaten me and said if I posted my poor experience, (that was witnessed by 17 individuals), he would sue me. My lawyers had to be copied on the emails and once I put them on the emails, Dan told me I was, "blocked." Up until I copied my attorneys on the emails, Dan continued to send threatening emails. Despite me putting it in writing to please leave me alone. I have attached pictures here of our conversation. The conversation was initially dismissive, then he began to threaten me stating that if I went public he would have me charged with a crime. https://m.yelp.com/biz/gertrudes-village-house-siesta-key While the rental company is not responsible for the inside features, nothing worked. The fridge was broken, the air conditioner would work on some nights, others it did not. The sink would clog and the drainer was broken. This hasn't been addressed because it says they are not responsible for this in the contract. But for your knowledge, the pictures are deceiving. We originally booked this place as a 4/3. Please do your research. Dan, the owner, charged us for a 4/3. We placed a call to Dan to let him know we didn't have the 4/3 and in front of 17 individuals on speakerphone, Dan corroborated this by stating, "yes absolutely. That unit is included with the rental." Dan then gave us the address to the second unit and we walked over there, only to find a family inside. It wasn't until he gave us the address and we attempted to get inside, that Dan called us back and took back everything he said. Unfortunately, the website says it's a 4/3. The owner will likely respond by telling you our email correspondence says I agreed to a 3/2. I have attached those screenshots here. He continues to send me a link that I did not click on. I did it through their website. It is advertised as a 4/3. When Dan realized he double booked, he called us back and said we were mistaken. Despite telling us, "absolutely. The 4th unit is included with your rental." The contract also states we are responsible for looking at the website, which advertises this as a 4/3. Upon my attempt to speak with Dan, he yelled at the top of his lungs, "STOP!!!!" It was the most bazaar reaction. I then said, "excuse me? I am trying to explain my frustration with you." Dan then responded by stating, "ugh I don't feel like dealing with this. I'm on vacation. You booked what you booked. This isn't my problem." I asked him who I could speak to when he is on vacation and he responded with, "no one. This isn't my problem. I don't know what you want me to do. I don't feel like dealing with this." Our email exchange sums up the majority of the issues we faced with Dan. I didn't raise my voice once. I tried to calmly express my frustration and the owner responded by yelling at me, telling me it wasn't his problem, and talking down to me. Please read the reviews on the company. NOT THE LOCATION. The location is why this place continues to get bookings. The owner attempted to sell me a rental that opened up the next morning. He ignored the fact that I paid him for the 4th bedroom and then he charged another family to stay there. Therefore, he charged both me (who did not stay in the 4th unit) and the other family, (who actually stayed in the unit). He essentially rented the fourth bedroom twice, profited from us both, and the other family stayed in it. When he texted me the next morning asking if I wanted the extra unit for a "discounted price." I said "no thank you." I didn't send another text or send any emails. I was going to let my lawyer handle it when I got home. The owner then started an email chain stating I booked the 3/2. When I attempted to defend myself, he threatened me, coerced me, and tried to scare me into posting this review. It wasn't until I copied my lawyer onto the email thread that he stopped sending messages. Even the last email was an attempt to threaten me if I went public with this.
