Imperial Beach, CA, Beach Front Condo Renters Beware!! |

| Complaint |
There is a rental property owner, currently advertising on condo rental Web sites, such as VacationRentals411 and Goin2Travel, and advertising on San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau's Web site as "A Awesome Beach Vacation in San Diego," who is conducting business in an unscrupulous, dishonest manner.
Her name is Kayli Davidson and her rental property is located at 1508 Seacoast Drive in Imperial Beach, CA; however Ms. Davidson’s personal residence is in Grass Valley, CA. During our stay in July 2009, 1/4–1/3 of the ceiling of the second bedroom collapsed. Fortunately, my family and I were out at SeaWorld at the time, otherwise my children who were staying in that room could have been seriously injured. Upon returning to find this alarming occurrence, we called Kayli to inform her of the situation. She informed us that this was due to a water heater break the week before and that it wasn't a problem because insurance was handling it. As a mother of two small children who were staying in that bedroom, I was appalled at her callous lack of concern for my family's safety and upset that we had not been notified of the damage and possible danger before arriving. I asked if she would refund our money so that we could go stay somewhere safer. She proceeded to yell at me and tell me to sweep the debris out of the way and that my children were perfectly safe in that room. And if they weren't, then they could sleep on the sleeper sofa instead. There would be no refunds.
We then had the rest of our vacation interrupted by workers and insurance agents coming in to survey and fix the damage. After contacting Ms. Davidson through the rental site where we located her listing (Value Vacation Rentals) after our return home, she agreed to give us a refund. However, it has been over six months. We have contacted Ms. Davidson many times and so has VVR to no avail. She claims that she has not yet received her payment from the insurance company. VVR has pulled her listing from their site. Other sites however are still posting her listing. Do not rent this condo from the above condo rental agencies!
This woman is not someone who you want to do business with, her listings are misleading (one even states that there is a pool and tennis courts, neither of which is true), and if things go wrong, she resorts to yelling and hanging up on her renters or ignoring their requests completely. If you do rent from her, you can expect to not receive a renters agreement nor a receipt and to wait months for your security deposit (and having to request it multiple times). |
