Disappointing Experience — Pool & Spa Unusable for Entire Stay
We stayed at a Florida Premier Rentals property in Orlando and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience.
When we arrived, the house had numerous dead bugs throughout the property, and there wasn't even a broom available to clean them up. We also found what appeared to be black mold in the primary bathroom shower. The pool and spa were full of dirt and debris and clearly were not ready for guests to use.
We immediately reported the pool condition. After the issue continued, Florida Premier Rentals eventually sent two people to inspect the pool, and they determined that the pool pump was not working. Despite our complaints, the pump was not repaired during our stay, and the pool and spa remained unusable for our entire trip.
This was especially frustrating because the private pool and spa were prominently featured as amenities in the rental listing and were a major reason we selected this particular house. We were traveling as a family and specifically chose a property where we could enjoy the pool during our downtime from the Orlando parks.
Our biggest disappointment was the response from Florida Premier Rentals. We reported the problems and gave the company an opportunity to address them, but the pool issue was never resolved during our stay. We were also not offered any compensation for losing the use of a major advertised amenity for the entire vacation.
Problems can happen with any rental property. What matters is how the management company responds when they do. Based on our experience, Florida Premier Rentals was not sufficiently responsive and did not provide an acceptable resolution.
Future guests who are choosing a property specifically because of amenities such as a private pool or spa should be aware of our experience.

We’re sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. We take guest feedback seriously and always want to understand any concerns raised so we can look into them properly.
At the moment, however, we’re unable to match the name on this review to a reservation in our records, so we don’t have enough information to investigate the specific issues mentioned.

Kind regards,

Florida Premier Rentals ruined my Family Christmas Vacation
While staying at Florida Premier Rentals, Storey Lake- 2718 Oxymoron Way Kissimmee, FL Dec. 25, 2025- Jan 2, 2026 we encountered multiple roaches. My family and I saw roaches everyday/multiple times per day to include on the ceiling, in the kids’ bed on a pillow, bathrooms wall/showers/floors, roaches crawling across the kitchen and living area floors, roaches coming outside and inside the cabinets/drawers, on the bedroom walls, on and crawling from under the stove; roaches crawling from under the washer/dryer area and on the countertops. Our first day at the property, there was a dead roach in tea kettle and dead roaches in other areas of the home. We went through an entire can of RAID, had to constantly sweep the floors and wipe the countertops down with Clorox pads. On two separate occasions my family had to jump up and grab their plates while eating as two roaches appeared during this time.
The Property Management team was contacted on December 26th to inform them of the roach issue and I was told Pest Control would come by but they could not provide a day/time of their arrival. I called the Property Management team back on December 27th to express concerns of more roaches and Pest Control Company, Helios arrived on Sunday morning, December 28th. The Helio Pest Control agent that arrived informed me that he did not receive the request to visit the property until after hours on December 27th which is why he showed up on December 28th. Prior to the Pest Control agent leaving the property he explained that we may see a few more roaches since he just sprayed but nothing bad. pictures to the host in the VRBO app. noting the roach issues. I also asked what my options were as at this point, I wanted to be moved to another home.
On December 28th, I spoke with Florida Premier Reservation Manager, Yvonne, and she acknowledged the frustration we were experiencing during the stay and stated to me that she would be running if she were in the home. FL Premier Rentals offered a five-bedroom home which was not enough space for my family staying in the current 8-bedroom home. Florida Premier Rentals also stated and documented that they were escalating the concerns to the Resolutions Department to determine compensation as there was nothing more they could do during the holiday period. However, despite us still seeing roaches after two visits from pest control, she considered the pest matter closed since the home was sprayed. I contacted Property Management again on December 31st to note that there were still a number of roaches coming out. The same Pest Control agent arrived again and noted seeing dead and live roaches in the home. To which the property management team noted that they were not sure what was going on. I was asked what I wanted at this time, to which I requested a full refund. Florida Premier informed me on January 2nd that they were offering me a refund $890.95. My family paid $6,806.75 for the home and was only offered one night and a half stay for the inconvenience. Florida Premier Rentals first blamed the pest control company for coming out late due to the holidays. I questioned this because the Pest Control agent that arrived to the property reported that he was at the home in November and that when a request is made, an agent arrives to the property within 24 hours of the request. The timeline of there being a delay between November and right before Christmas does not seem truthful. When I pushed back on this reasoning, I was then told it was due to FL's climate as occasional insect activity can occur even in well-maintained homes. If Florida Premier Rentals believes seeing the number of roaches we saw is occasional that is very unfortunate for future guest. I provided pictures and videos of the roaches to Florida Premier Rentals, the pest control POC and the onsite property team representative who came to the property. The property management representative saw the dead roach in the kettle for himself and was grossed out. I was also told that the last guest did not report a roach issue, which I am not sure what that has to do with my stay and properly reporting the issue. FL Premier Rentals appears to be insinuating that my experience, videos and pictures are false. Prior to my arrival to the property on December 25th, I paid $360 separately/on top of the $6806.75 for pool heat. When we arrived, the pool heat did not work so Florida Premier Rentals refunded me the $360 despite the pool heat being fixed later during the trip; I did not request the refund but appreciated the gesture. FL Premier Rentals concluded that the $360 for the unheated pool plus the one night and a half stay should be enough to cover the roach issue. Despite pics and video evidence & because the last guest did not complain my issue was considered an isolated incident.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us in such detail. We are truly sorry that your family encountered roaches during your stay at the Storey Lake home. We understand how frustrating and upsetting this must have been, especially while celebrating the holidays with your children.
We take every pest-related report seriously. Upon receiving your initial message on December 26th, we immediately arranged for Helios Pest Control to visit the property. They performed treatments on December 28th and again on December 31st. We also escalated your concerns internally and offered compensation of $890.95 (equivalent to one and a half nights) plus the full $360 pool heat fee you had paid.
We genuinely regret that the situation was not resolved to your satisfaction despite these efforts. Providing a safe and clean environment for our guests is our top priority, and we are disappointed this experience fell short of the standards we aim for.
We have forwarded all of your feedback, photos, and videos to our property team and pest control partner for further review so we can prevent this from happening to other guests. Your input is valuable to us.
If there is anything else we can do to help make this right, or if you’d like to discuss this further, please feel free to reply to this message or reach out directly. We value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to host you again under better circumstances in the future.
Sincerely,
Amalia

RENTER BEWARE OF MISLEADING TACTICS
I had a very frustrating experience with Yvonne as the property manager. The listing for the rental I was interested in provided a false address, and I only learned the real location after the cancellation period had passed. This company seems to rely on stalling tactics and bait-and-switch techniques, misrepresenting the true location of their properties to attract tenants. When I confronted them about the discrepancy, they simply denied the issue and delayed any response, making it impossible to get a refund. I would strongly advise others to be cautious when dealing with this company, as they seem to be intentionally misleading in their advertising and handling of rental agreements.
Response from Fl Premier RentalsJul 15, 2026
I’m sorry to hear you had such a frustrating experience with your booking. We take concerns about property listings and addresses very seriously.
I have looked into your case and will personally review the listing details, the address provided, and the communication with Yvonne. Accuracy in our property information is important to us, and if there was an error on our end, we want to correct it and make it right.
If you’re open to it, could you please reply with your booking reference number or the specific property address so I can investigate this further? I’d like to resolve this directly with you.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and are committed to improving our process so this doesn’t happen to other guests.

Worst I’ve been in
Worst I’ve been in. Door won’t open upon arrival, ac stops working 3 hours into house rental, their tech never showed up to fix it. Elevator broke next morning 4 am I go to use not working, I report 5+ calls 2 days later they admit not doing anything to fix, all 5 days here broken still, then the washer brakes trying to do the few towels they left for a family of 6, never fixed it after multiple calls. So ended up with a 63 year old with feet and back problems climbing 3 flights of stairs to the 4th floor every day having to stop multiple times. I’m chatting with out attorney seeing if it’s even worth messing with, might just to make them have to deal with the paperwork, since they refuse to compensate or fix.

Never again
We booked a vacation with Florida Premier Rentals starting 7/10 and checking out 7/17. 232 Auburn Ave (Encore Resort at Reunion) From the moment we entered the home we experienced the following issues.
Air Condition was not working on the first floor (61 degrees second floor / 80 degrees first floor)
7 interior lights not working.
2 exterior lights not working (unable to use patio and pool at night)
First floor master toilet not working and backing up.
First floor master shower backing up.
3 of the 10 kitchen chairs were broken.
Pots and pans were so cheap that most of the pans were deformed and bent we need to purchase our own.
Wi-Fi system in the home was very slow and spotty. IT company had to come and replace the router.
During the week some of these items were addressed with a call each day and us waiting around for a repair person to show up. We would call each morning and talk to Yvonne at Florida Premier Properties to report the issues repeatedly only to be told she was doing her best to have someone swing over. The air condition was never repaired, and we were told due to the fact there was only one air conditioner in the home the first floor will always be much warmer then the second floor where the unit is located. (Florida heat 95+ degrees) Yvonne told us that she would have fans brought over many times but that never happened. The toilet and shower issue was never resolved as the repair company told us they would need to order parts. I found a local repair company and paid them $100 to snake the drain to fix the issue as we could no longer deal with a nonfunctioning first floor bathroom. In total we missed out on many planed events due to all these issues and would never stay or deal with Florida Premier Rentals again. My feeling is that they thought we would stop calling and wear us down. In total we spend over 20hrs on the phone with them and waiting for repair people to arrive.

This company does not provide money back for Covid Restrictions Preventing Travel
We booked this trip months before covid restrictions took place, for the holiday of a lifetime in April 2020. At the time, our flights were cancelled by British Airways, holiday parks were closed, US borders were closed to us and we were not allowed to leave the UK. We were unable to get any compensation for the thousands of pounds we spent on accomodation via our insurance company because Florida Premier Rentals T+Cs stated monetary refunds were possible if they could not fulfil the booking. I have been in emails back and forth for months and still they are not giving our money back to us. In exasperation I recently emailed and stated we would have to leave a poor review and report to financial ombudsman. The owner of this UK based company Karen Collinson stated that they have 'bent over backwards' to offer us the chance to rebook a holiday without a rebooking fee. She stated also that she will not be bullied or blackmailed. I am at a complete loss as to how to respond to such a situation, and these kinds of responses. I therefore felt compelled to warn others that if they take the risk and decide to book holiday accommodation with this company, based on my experience, there is likely to be no way they will get their money back in the event of circumstances beyond their control.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. We booked a stay with this company and our plans changed. They would not consider refunding our deposit or even issuing a credit for a different stay. Poor business ethics.
My cancellation request was 6/16/2020, this allows nearly 15 weeks for another booking, easy enough. I hardly think any of your other parties are out any money (Homeaway said you control the decision regarding the return of deposit).
Response from Fl Premier RentalsJun 17, 2020
I am sorry to see that Mr Bryant is unhappy with our service. When he made the initial booking, he was fully aware that it was non-refundable as it is clearly marked on the villa details page. The no-refund is also clearly laid out in the Terms and Conditions document he had to agree to before his initial booking was accepted.
During the Covid crisis, as a gesture of goodwill, we have been making exceptions and allowing our guests to move their bookings to a later date to avoid disappointment. Now that Orlando is open for tourism, we are having to stick firmly to the legal terms agreed when he made the booking.
As I'm sure you are aware, there are several reasons why we have to insist on a no-refund policy:
We cannot allow guests to reserve a villa and then later demand a refund because they have changed their mind. This means they have blocked other vacationers from booking the villa on those reserved dates. A no-refund deposit shows a firm commitment to book and stay at the villa, and it must be respected.
Secondly, we do not hold or control the funds paid by guests to secure their villa booking. The majority of the deposit goes to the booking company, with a very small percentage being passed back eventually to FPR. We cannot refund monies that we do not control.
Thirdly, our villa owners have taken huge losses over the past months of lock-down. They have had no income from new bookings but they have still had to pay high overheads including resort memberships, insurances, pest control, utility bills (to maintain air-con and pool maintenance etc), and mortgage interest in many cases. This continues to be an on-going problem for them as they honor past bookings which limits availability for new bookings for the rest of the year. Now that Orlando is open for tourism, we have to revert to the Terms and Conditions agreed by guests when they book.
We have already had to accommodate moving over 300 bookings that have been rescheduled. We simply do not have the availability to accommodate any further changes.
I'm afraid that making threats and leaving vitriolic feedback comments does not change the legal facts. This was a non-refundable booking that was clearly stated from the outset. Mr Bryant signed to say he understood that there would be no refund if he canceled, and we regretfully have to maintain that position.
Yours faithfully,
Karen Collinson
