Plumlee Gulf Beach Realty - Vacation home rental agency in Indian Rocks Beach - 417 1st St, USA

What a mess. Came here looking for a relaxing vacation and got a total mess. First sheets were not clean, full of sand and bugs. Of course there is no one available on Sunday. Went to cook dinner on the grill. No propane and no one on site or an emergency number to call. Don’t waste your time and money with Plumlee rentals. Go with a service that at least takes care of the basics. Update. Housekeeping did contact us and gave us excuses why the bed sheets were not clean. My guess is no one is taking to time to manage housekeeping. Not taking the time to change the bed sheets is hardly striving for perfection. I find it difficult to believe that we are charged a cleaning fee when we had to wash our own sheets before we could sleep in the bed. Not the best impression after traveling all day to get here. What is the cleaning fee for?

I was a guest with family staying in Crystal Sands 1 at Indian Rock, unit 703. This unit shouldn't be rented, I would be ashamed to take money for this unit. Completely out dated, you have a 10 step instruction list on how to use the wash machine or it say it will break( fix it or get new). We had all the condonet fall down on the deck holding the ceiling fan up, I had to hang it back up. The refrigerator is so old doesn't have ice maker. I could go on and on. This unit should be used to put up homeless veterans or something, but not rent to family on vacation. Stay away from this place. Also, and maybe the most important. The deck rallying is just pvc tubing. You don't want to be leaning or put to much pressure on it you just might fall 7 stories down. Not Safe.

While Fort Meyers continues to rebuild from the hurricane, my in-laws recommended IRB, and the Plumlee location. We booked right away. Since we had never been , I wasn't sure what to expect. It was everything we needed. Very friendly front desk, lots of recommendations on what to do and where it is located. Our room was slightly outdated but I’m not there for the room, it had everything we needed and lots of space. The beach was beautiful, the pool was nice and warm, balcony was great, kitchen was fully stocked for cooking and the grill was great for dinners. We cannot wait to go back in 2024.

We had a great week. There was an event with the fridge dying, but we were accommodated with a dorm fridge, and a new fridge was delivered in a day. The accommodations were nice. Limited in this particular unit on kitchen supplies, but was doable. We have stayed in many units in the Sand Castle 1 building and will be coming again. The office staff does what they can to help in every situation, and Stephen was excellent in helping us get what we needed for our stay. Thank you to everyone in the Plumlee Rental office for all you do.

We have been going to the Reef Club for 6 years. Each year they make improvements to the grounds. It really has become a resort, large pool, hot tub, tennis and Pickle Ball courts, and a grassy area to relax in. They also have several outdoor games you can play in that area. It’s a very short walk to the beach Our condo is very spacious and feels like a home. Enough room to comfortably sleep 6. Can’t wait till next March when we can go down there again.

Excellent location and price!! Island Retreat is the best location on the beach we’ve found yet! The condo was dated, but it served our needs just fine. The kitchen had all we needed; my only complaint is that there were no coffee filters. We picked up groceries on the way in, so I had to make a second trip out. Plumlee, a gold/reusable filter would be a great addition. Washer and dryer worked well and we’re very handy. We walked to restaurants easily and cooked and ate on the patio the other nights. Overall, it was quiet and the other tenants were friendly. Would definitely stay here again!

Rented through Plumlee at Reef Club II Unit 2306. Horrible!! Vents in condo covered in MOLD and spreading to ceiling above vents. Shower curtain in bathroom across from kitchen had slimy orange and black mold and dirt. It was disgusting. Very disappointed as we paid a lot to stay for a week. Never again. We have stayed in this are for many years and this was by far the worst.

We chose a premium property that supposedly met certain Plumlee standards but unfortunately the property fell short. The screen door was rusted out and had to be removed leaving us with no way to enjoy the gulf sounds and breeze without risking insects. There were other oddities such as the a/c unit was placed in and took some space in the master closet and also created noise. The main closet was filled with paint supplies so we could not use it. The building was old and tired. There frequently were queues waiting for the small elevator. This was because you need to carry a key to use the stairs. Plumlee was responsive to maintenance requests and did adjust our bill , and the location was great - steps from the beach but overall had we known the property was not up to standard we would have chosen a different one. We were advised to call Plumlee and speak to an agent who was familiar with all of the units as they can steer you away from ones that are less than desirable. Lesson learned.
