Stayavari Reviews 

⭐☆☆☆☆ (1 Star)
I rented an Ariel Dunes II condo 306 through Avari FL, and this was one of the worst vacation rental experiences I’ve had.
When we arrived, the unit had a strong fish and smoke odor. The carpet smelled terrible, the couch was dirty, and the beds had hair, used tissues, and food crumbs. The condition of the unit made it feel unclean and unsuitable for my family.
I contacted Avari immediately and asked to be moved to a clean unit. I was told someone would speak with the manager and get back to me, but no one ever followed up. I reached out again through chat and received the same generic responses that they would “look into it,” but nothing was actually done.
I paid for a clean vacation rental, not a unit with serious cleanliness and odor issues. What disappointed me the most was not only the condition of the property but also the lack of urgency and customer service.
I cannot recommend booking through Avari based on my experience. If something goes wrong with your stay, don’t expect timely or meaningful help.

Checked in around 4 p.m. on Sunday, 28 June 2026. The outside trash can was completely overfilled with food-related waste from previous guests, AS WELL AS INSIDE KITCHEN TRASH CONTAINING LIQUOR BOTTLES AND RANCID MEAT. DOG POOP wrapped in a paper towel and left on outside upper balcony that can only be accessed by going through the house. I immediately snapped photos of all this and sent to Avari via the app. Silence from Avari throughout the night. No word from Avari the next morning, so I called their main number; nice gentleman but very hard to understand through foreign accent. He said he was forwarding my pictures and previous day's texts to upper echelon. I heard from "upper Avari" and they asked me to resend the photos that I had already uploaded...I reloaded all photos twice; they then apologized "for the overflowing trash, kitchen garbage and feces on the upper deck." This was about 18 hours after my first text to Avari with photos. I then got a call from the local team; they were very helpful and we worked out a solution where I bagged up all the trash from inside (including the dog poop) and set it outside by the main garbage can. The local team then took the trash away in two trips. No offer of adjusting the bill by corporate Avari; I guess they felt saying "Whoops, sorry" was good enough. Seriously, the whole house needs a deep clean; dingy towels, dirty/greasy stove, cobwebs and dust bunnies. Key pad went low battery on us; local team promptly fixed.
