"This was our1st Esperanza with VRBO . I was a bit concerned if we were gonna experience some of the horror stories we’ve heard. (We chose VRBO because we’ve had friends say airB&B tends to be more problematic).We were thrilled from beginning to end! The choice to pick the place, the payment plan, the, the move in was flawless. The house was clean, completely stocked and ready for us to settle in. The internet went out for about 4 days (a huge MI storm)but Christie kept us up-dated from the internet company. We were fine w/ that. Our 1st experience w/ VRBO was 5 star worthy!"
