Nov 7, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stay away This property was a nightmare broken door handles, beds where so uncomfortable it was better sleeping on the floor. Pipes where backing up only one working shower. The place smelled of mold and a used litter box. Then you meet with the Algrave Vacation property manager and it turns into a timeshare type of push. This property single handily ruined our family vacation as you could not sleep the smell was so awful. Consider this as warning to stay away! ##### William G.
