SCAM! RUN! RATS, MOLD, FILTHY, HORRIBLE SMELL! TOLIET CONSTANTLY FLUSHING NOT JUST RUNNING! The floors are rotten under the vinyl plank. It feels like you are going to fall through them. Do not believe the fake reviews that say these are clean places to stay. 

Business response:

Hello Ms. Rayna, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. To provide clarity, I wanted to walk through the events of your arrival to ensure the full context is understood. Upon your arrival, you reported several concerns including mold, cleanliness issues, a toilet running, and a rat, and you told us that you would not be staying in the property and advised that we would need to provide you with a full refund or face legal action. We immediately responded by asking for photos of the issues. After reviewing the photos... read more

Our recent stay at this condo through RealJoy Vacation Rentals was nothing short of perfect! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this property was as stunning in person as it was in the photos. My family of five had more than enough space to relax and enjoy our time together, and the condo's thoughtful touches made our stay truly special. The inclusion of games and beach toys was a fantastic bonus that kept our kids entertained and added an extra layer of fun to our beach adventure. We also spent countless hours on... read more

My family of 5 stayed in a RealJoy until DESTIN, FL for 3 nights in July. 18 days after our checkout I received an email from RealJoy stating that I was being charged $780 for damages noting they found a "human sized dent" in the wall next to the TV. We absolutely, positively did NOT dent or damage any walls/doors OF ANY SIZE during our short stay. Any number of people could have been in/out of this rental until within that 18 day period. Further concerning is that I have read similar reviews made by others about this compan... read more

DISGUSTED!! Real Joke, NOT Real Joy! We are currently staying at Sterling Reef in a unit managed by RealJoy, unit 1504. I rented directly from RealJoy hoping that if we encountered problems we could go directly through them versus renting from a third party like VRBO. The unit was filthy. Floors covered in sand and animal hair, dirty sheets and blankets, and dirty dishes. If thats not bad enough, the A/C stopped working within 30minutes of arriving. Mind you, todays temperature actually reached 99degrees! They said they woul... read more

Business response:

Thank you for writing on behalf of the reservation holder. I have reviewed the calls from your stay as well as spoken with the property manager so that, along with your comments here, I can have a closer to full understanding of what happened during your time with us. While I’m not sure why the AC vendor was not dispatched on the first night of August 7th, I now know that ultimately the problem stemmed from recurring and intermittent WiFi issues within the building. As that unit’s HVAC system is WiFi based, the intermittent ... read more

we stayed at Holiday House in Panama city, FL and immediately had problems. It was a 5 bedroom unit and the main HVAC was broken. It was mid May and the temperature inside never went below 78 degrees. A call to the number provided on a courtesy memo on the refrigerator went to a voicemail. NO RESPONSE and call was placed when we arrived at 5 pm, two hours after arrival. First nite in a warm humid building was very uncomfortable only possible with fans we brought along. We had to search the internet to reach a person to help ... read more

Business response:

Hello Tony,<br /> <br /> <br /> Thank you for writing in and sharing a bit of your experience at Holiday House. It’s never a good day when the HVAC decides to break!<br /> <br /> <br /> I know it was frustrating on my end, so I can’t imagine how frustrating it must have been for you and your family while you were expecting to relax on your beach vacation.<br /> <br /> <br /> We work hard every day for all of our guests and certainly never “brush off” any maintenance issues whether small or large.<br /> <br /> <br /> Holiday ... read more
