On November 4, I purchase two six bedroom vacation homes; Olivia Zuluaga was my sales representative. She was very informative explaining the detail of the home and what they had to offer me. I finally decided to purchase the two homes for my families’ annual stay in Orlando, FL. She explained to me that she would send me confirmation via email and for me to look over the package, I informed her I would not be able to look over the package until the holidays and if I had any problems I would get in touch with her. Well, my family and I was able to review the vacation package and in their policy it states we are require to pay a security deposit of $500 per vacation home. Olivia Zuluaga failed to mention this to me!! She inform me about all the discount they offered and the how beautiful their vacation homes was but never once did she mention anything about a security deposit of $500 which is due when we check-in; this is unacceptable practice. Olivia should have told me this before I gave her my credit card information. Also reading their policy if I cancel my home which I have done they are charging me a $200 per home. I spoke to Olivia via email on November 26 regarding my situation; I told her I should not be charged a cancellation fee but she failed to inform me about this policy before she booked my room. Her reply was that I should have read their company policy and procedures before I booked the room but I told her how can I read the company policy and procedures when I booked our vacation home via the phone with her. I then went on their website to see if they had any policy and procedures in regards to their vacation home, THEY DON’T! As a consumer how am I suppose to know about their policy and procedures if it is not listed on there website or if I book via the phone if it is not told to me. I was mislead, this is dishonest practice; I should not be charged any cancellation fee because I was not inform about any policy and procedures. This company sell practice needs to be investigated. I also have several email conversation between me an this sales representative apologize for not informing me but they need to be responsible for their actions.
