      Status:
      Unresolved
      In May 2023 we booked a condo rental from Best Beach Getaways “BBG” via VRBO website. They processed a $454 deposit May 2023. Jan 5 2024 we were notified by voicemail by “Mike” of BBG the property owner has decided to remove the listing and our reservation has cancelled. In his vmail he requested my address to return deposit via check. I replied via phone and left vmail with my mailing address for check (we paid online by credit card but they decided to return deposit via check). I received no confirmation and on Jan 10 sent a text message. No response again. Jan 17, Jan 21 I attempted again to call Mike and left two vmails requesting confirmation and refund status. No response. Today I contacted VRBO as their website shows payment was refunded to my credit card company and that is not correct. VRBO said I need to contact the property manager. I contacted Mike again by phone and received vmail. I left a message. I also contacted “Tiffany” at extension 111 per Mike’s vmail in his absence. As i explained to Tiffany she cut me off and said “Well Mike is out today and you can call him tomorrow”. I further explained it has been a month I’ve been chasing this and I’ve had zero replies. Therefore I ask she relay my concern to Mike in addition to my vmails and texts. If I didn’t hear back I’d…. Then she hung up on me. I called the main phone number and asked for the owner. I was transferred to the owner. As I began relaying my concerns and frustrations to him he said he’s in his car and would call me back shortly. This company keeps delaying me and pushing me off and avoiding returning my refund.

      We booked our reservation through Best Beach Getaways for La Costa on Anna Maria Island. The reservation confirmation was received via email. 2 days later they emailed stating the owner of the condo wanted a higher amount and we could either pay an additional $515.00 or they would cancel our booking. They stated they listed the wrong fee for that season. We asked who was responsible for the error and they admitted to listing it wrong. We suggested that since it was their error that they should be responsible for the additional amount the owner of the condo wanted. They simply responded "I am sorry about any inconvenience, but the owner has final say and will not accept that amount. I will cancel the reservation and refund any monies paid.". No where on their site do they state a price could change after booking. They were unwilling to accept their responsibility and make amends for their mistake and instead took it upon themselves to cancel the reservation. Completely unethical business practice.
