I redownloaded the whole Yelp app just to copy my review to warn others…read more It's 2:38 AM and I can't sleep due to seeing 5-6 roaches in a short time frame and mouse droppings, not to mention my feet were DIRTY from walking on the floors for three hours. I've escalated the issue to Airbnb due to the host not being able to accommodate us another unit with our specific ADA needs (understandably, I don't expect them to have something so specific on a whim) but I DO expect a clean place to stay. They offered us a refund to leave (before I found the mouse poop) but it was 10 PM and we're 8 hours from home?????????????????? 0/10 do not recommend unless you like sleeping with a family of roaches, maybe even mice. I would not eat off of ANYTHING in this house and I'm SO grateful we grabbed paper plates before we ate pizza. Update: they sent someone to spray the house and "clean up the mouse droppings." They vacuumed up the mouse droppings with no proper sanitation. I am in a war with the property over the cleaning fee. They believe since we had "clean sheets" and the counters were wiped off it was "clean". Mouse droppings are not clean. I was rude with the customer service rep after he proceeded to ask us why we stayed if we thought it was so gross. I reported the events all immediately as I found them around 10-11 PM timeframe after arriving at 8:30 PM. He then wanted to "please don't yell at me Maam" like he didn't just ask an extremely offensive question. Not to mention, my boyfriend had 3 hours of sleep the night prior due to work, not the companies problem, but also another reason we could not leave the night we arrived. We had one person sleep in their car and two others were going to, but found other arrangements. I asked him if he considered that clean in his house? We have a father who has specific ADA needs, we can't pick up and leave 8 hours away from home at 11 PM???? We did immediately find a new Airbnb this morning and White Shores is trying to hold onto my cleaning fee. I am appalled at how the owner handled this over a cleaning fee when we had four major issues in 3 hours of arriving due to CLEANLINESS, HEALTH, AND SANITATION. But according to the owner, mouse droppings and dirty floors is clean so WE get to pay to have the dirty house actually cleaned after the WORST 12 hours on a vacation. I can only assume he thinks that is also clean in his place of residence, which is disgusting. We were HAPPY to vacant the premises after we found more mouse droppings and informed the host. They asked us to vacant immediately like we were waiting on them when we were literally just waiting for our next request to be approved.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS RENTAL COMPANY!! (part 1 of 2) If I…read morecould rate Sugar Sands Realty a negative 80 stars, I would, & I NEVER leave bad reviews. The entire experience with them was unprofessional & rude. I remained very patient & polite for over a month after our trip, to give them an opportunity to respond to me, & another few weeks after that to call me back & give me the properly owed credit for downsizing me from a 3 bedroom/3 bath/single family home with private pool, to a tiny outdated 1 bedroom condo. Before you take my word for everything, read the other reviews on the Yelp site (all negative) & note that you will not see a single review of any of their properties on their website. I tried to leave a review on several of the properties & the link to review doesn't even work! Where to begin? The contract you have to sign after booking is the longest & most intense I've even seen with a rental anywhere. They also charge a large fee for paying by credit card, charge $110+ for non-refundable damage insurance (that only covers the $500 of damage), & $235 cleaning fee for a unit that even they admitted had never been clean (more on that later). After driving all day, we arrived right at check-in time of 3:00 & after they made a call they told us the rental was ready for us. We arrived to find a maid rushing out the door with a vacuum, broom, & mop. We offered to leave & come back, saying we didn't want to rush her. She said she was finished. After unloading our entire SUV, we went to load the cold items in refrigerator. Food had been left in there, there was trash in the unlined trash can, dirty dishes in dishwasher, syrup all over the countertops, freshly melted chocolate in middle of kitchen floor, gum stuck to wooden floor in a couple of spots, etc. I assumed the sheets had been changed & bathrooms cleaned so was planning on staying anyway. That's when we realized the front glass door of the rental was permanently locked and we couldn't get it opened. While on the phone to Sugar Sands to let them know this, we found ourselves standing in water on the kitchen floor. Turns out the kitchen pipes under sink were completely disconnected. I told her about this, & asked if someone could come fix that & the door. As I knew they were working with a new cleaning service, I also told her she should be aware of the state we found the place in. I was polite & not asking to be moved or for $ back. She put me on hold for a long time & then came back & said she confirmed there was a misunderstanding between the old cleaning service & the new one & that the rental "had not been cleaned at all". She also said, "We know you have walking into a total nightmare & this place is new for us & hasn't been inspected, but don't worry, we are searching for a place to move you." At that point, while also watching the neighbor's big dog run wild around the dirty pool & take a big crap in the yard, I confirmed a move would be great. She let me go and called & texted options a few times over the next 1-2 hrs, & also said there was no way they would pay to get someone out before the next day so it was ok for me to just exit through the back sliding door & leave the place unlocked when we left. A nice guy that works with them showed up as we were loading our car & he said the only way to fix the door was "to have someone come back the next day to completely dismantle it". Sugar Sands offered me a couple of 2 bedroom units FAR from where we wanted to be (West Gulf Shores instead of the far end of Orange Beach where we wanted to be), they were very run down looking, no pool, & not on beach. We said we'd take a smaller until if they'd credit us the difference. We accepted the 3rd option, a 1 bedroom condo a few miles away. While both rentals had a lot of potential, neither were ready for renters. We did not complain about the replacement condo while there, but I did confirm with her again that she would be crediting us the difference in cost. I took a screenshot of the total cost of this very unit for the nights we were there, before saying we would move there. The total was broken down to include all the same fees, taxes, cleaning, & insurance, as well as parking fees (original rental had no fees but they charged us $110 +15% tax for 2 passes.) I also had to get a corrected code to enter the pool area & had to ask for wifi password. (continued in pic below)
