We were told a day before we left that the clothes dryer was not working in our rental . We arrived on Sunday and left on Saturday. After numerous calls to the office, we were told someone would be out.They also informed us that a laundromat was nearby and that the weather had been pretty nice for drying out things. Who informs their clients about such stupid stuff. We paid a good rental fee for this rental and we were not at all happy about their response! Finally, on Thursday afternoon a new dryer arrived. This was our third time at this rental and it was not as well supplied or as clean as before. No towels were left in the bathroom, very little soap in the kitchen and the window sills were filthy. I am very unhappy with this rental company. Never once was there an apology for any problems or issues. We were suppose to be on a restful weeks vacation and it was not as anticipated. I will not rent again from this company!!! Our reservation number was 8136541, dates were 7/8/24 thru 7/14/24. We rented the Chez Adsuar, The name on reservation was J. Southard.

This review was updated and revised 8/2/24. We had a disappointing rental house experience in Waldport, OR, July 21-25, 2024. The house was advertised as beautiful and fully renovated. In reality, it was dirty, the worst issues being pee on a mattress and a downstairs carpet that badly needed shampooing. There were also many dirty dishes in the cupboards and several other problems. The house was $700 per night for 3 bedrooms, 6-person capacity. I felt like we got ripped off. I called Meredith Lodging 3 times during our stay to log various issues we found since they said any problems needed to be reported before checking out. After check-out, I submitted a review for the house on their website (twice) but they never posted it. They choose which reviews they want to post and only show you the best ones. I emailed Meredith Lodging, including pictures, and their resolution was to refund the cleaning fee and give me a $100 credit towards a future stay (keep in mind I had paid $2,800 for this stay). They felt that was appropriate, but I wanted at least one night's fee refunded (not just a credit towards a future stay). I do not trust this company and recommend you don't stay in one of their properties, or if you're a rental home owner, find another property management company.

4 bed 3 bath house. Beautiful views. The house was very clean. The hot tub was wonderful. We all thought it was a wonderful place to stay. Great for family's!

I paid an exorbitant amount for an ocean front rental on the Oregon coast. The 1960s home was badly rundown, reeked of mildew, and offered an ancient lumpy mattress. The garbage disposal was broken when we arrived and remained that way during our 5 night stay despite my repeated pleas to repair it. The smell of rotting food overlaid the mildew spell. First and last rental experience with Meredith lodging.

Meredith thinks it is okay that "owners preference" for outside furniture is 2 broken plastic Adirondack chairs. Only beach house we have ever stayed at without appropriate outdoor furniture (chairs, table) or BBQ. No dishwasher and all the kitchen utensils/plates/pots were dirty in the cupboards. Broken kitchen chair and run down house....save your money. Based on Meredith response they clearly do not care, no one should be booking any properties with this company. Regarding your reply...what are you talking about? I did not need AC and a fan...I needed the chairs not to be broken and a house that was not filthy. Your reply (clearly not looking at my review) is typical for the reply I got from your company..inadequate. We will never use Meredith again and I will make sure everyone we know knows how terrible your company has become.

Had a wonderful stay at Hokona House. Excellent customer service from Samantha at Meredith Lodging who went above and beyond to accommodate us at check-in when we were delayed. Meredith Lodging customer service was friendly and timely to respond to text messages during our stay. The house and pool were exactly like the photos. Appreciated the cleanliness, attention to detail, and sophisticated amenities you won’t find anywhere else like Peloton Tread in the fully outfitted home gym and Mocchamaster coffee maker. Loved the tranquil and stylish backyard and pool. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the hot tub, the spa water was not clean, it had white plastic flakes and debris throughout from that appeared to be from the spa cover deteriorating and flaking off. I let the property management know, but they weren’t able to resolve the issue during our 4 night stay so we weren’t able to enjoy the spa as we hoped. Hopefully once the owners replace the cover the hot tub maintenance issue will be resolved so we can enjoy it on a future trip. Was really looking forward to using the hot tub so that was a bit disappointing. The only other room for improvement would be an upgrade to a more premium feeling, plush memory foam hybrid mattress in the primary. it would also be nice upgrade to offer a TV in the queen guest room as well as the primary. We loved the house, felt very comfortable and look forward to returning on our next visit to Palm Springs.

We rented a 700 sq ft home at Manzanita, OR from Tuesday - Friday in early May from Meredith Lodging. Given the size of the house, off season, weekday rental, and designated 4 pm access time (per rental agreement), we were disappointed to be denied access to the house for nearly an hour, especially after a 4 1/2 hour drive. The housecleaner answered our knock on the door, would not let us in and told us to go away. Meredith did not respond to my email or text regarding being locked out, and my subsequent phone call yielded no result, recourse, or even an extended checkout in exchange for the delayed check in. It’s frustrating to sign a rental agreement, pay the agreed upon rent, and then experience a cavalier disregard of that contract. And yes, we held up our end: stripped beds, started a load of laundry, washed and put away dishes, took out garbage, and checked out prior to the 10 am checkout time. It wasn’t hard.

DO NOT TRUST THEM Currently renting a property in Lincoln City OR for a month so I can stay in a clean place near the hospital while recovering from life altering brain surgery. Specifically chose this location because their are concerns that during my recovery I can suffer an attack that will kill me if I can't reach the ER within a few minutes. Cell service is non existent but the wifi was strong so I wasn't concerned about being stranded without access to medical services, until the wifi went down completely 2 hours after check in. We've called the office repeatedly over the past four days to explain the situation and have been assured someone will 'reach out soon' before not receiving a follow up and needing to repeat the process the next day. This morning they sent a maintenance technician out who verified services weren't working and then just left. After that experience I wrapped my head in fifty layers of bandages so nothing would slide out and made my way into town so I could, once again, call the office to ask what can be done. They've assured me they were contacting the owner to discuss upgrading the service package, a phone call which has taken all day and has no chance of being made until at least tomorrow morning (I know its unlikely and Ill probably have to wait at least a few more days before someone in their office decides to dial a number, but let a dying man have his fantasies) During all of this I am attempting to cooperate with the company, asking to be moved to any available property in town that have working services at least until this property is restored. I can understand why that request may be difficult to fulfill, according to their website they only have 36 different locations available nearby for check in right now as I write this review. I more than ever understand how precious time is, it was presumptuous of me to assume something as intensive as booking us in another property for a night or two could be handled a mere hour before office hours were over. I truly cant apologies enough to the employees who have had to deal with me; during one of the (many) calls we've made I got a bit emotional and said "I'm not trying to be a pain man, this isn't just me being a hysterical guest and I'd usually just enjoy the beach but I'm just really f*ng scared and I need to be able to call an ambulance if something happens" to which he asked me to watch my language, I can completely understand why that may have been traumatizing for him All in all I highly recommend this rental company for any other 26 year old terminally ill cancer patients who's idea of a great vacation is laying in bed completely isolated from everyone you know with no tv, no cell service, no internet and no way to contact anyone if they feel the reaper is standing at the foot of their bed. Personally nothing says rest and relaxation more than falling asleep to nothing but your own thoughts on mortality and the sound of your mom crying in the next room. It's certainly been a unique experience wondering if you're going to die seizing in a bed that's not your own, desperately trying to make a call you know isn't going to go through. My one saving grace in all of this is that at least the home is very comfortable, so my mother who's flew all the way from Philadelphia to see her son in a condition no parent should ever have to see their child in, a woman who is half my size and would be completely helpless to move me if something happens, can cry herself to sleep in a comfortable bed if I stroke out tonight If you're looking for a cool spot to visit while in town I highly recommend the local McDonalds, its a very relaxing environment to recover from surgery in and the cell service has been fantastic. Best of all the manager gave me a free diet coke while I took my time and wrote out this review with jittery half paralyzed fingers. Given the circumstances I was considering just sleeping in the ball pit here so I could at least call for an ambulance if I needed it, but the environment is a little dirty for my fresh surgical wounds so Im gonna take my life in my own hands and head back to the rental, good night everyone please wish me luck (for clarity I mean with the rental company, the cancer might take me out in a few months but apparently I have more immediate threats to my life to contend with) Additional concerns: Ants, broken smoke detector, oven, dish washer and fans 4/26: Internets finally back up 4/27: Well that was short lived, nets down again 4/28: I guess they finally got sick of us. My father got agitated and mouthed off to the employee on the phone (I cant blame him at this point), woke up an email telling us to get out by noon or they'd be contacting the authorities. I'm sure they will use legalese as a shield but this experience has been a joke 4/30: Currently fighting takedown requests for this review from these bums
