OP here.

Like I said before, there is no legal contract that I can find anywhere. There was the 60-day cancellation policy listed when I booked, but there is nothing like a rental contract in either my emails from when I booked, or on VRBO.com for my reservation either.

I clicked a button on a website and my CC was charged. I never saw nor was provided anything approaching a contract. So how do you adjudicate this when there is no actual contract?

You know pp is lying, right?


I think she was saying that location is listed as minor for the person who said only minor damage there. That “resort” is individually owned condos.


The map shows that resort as having major damage.

There is a piece about Sanibel on 60 minutes right now. The damage is awful.

There is no road, no power, no water and no one is allowed to stay overnight! There is a curfew!


Oh my gosh, it’s amazing that no one thought to make this exact argument at least 14 times already in the thread. 🙄


It's not an 'argument', it's FACT and there is no disputing it-despite the one poster who keeps saying that 'the map' says that the property might not be damaged.

I would predict that nobody will be renting a vacation house or a room in a hotel on Sanibel for about six months or maybe longer. A year wouldn't surprise me.

So if you know the address- search it up.

All properties are damaged to some level.


Based on your map, it appears that the majority of properties have minor to no damage. If the damage is limited to some shutters knocked off the house and a section of fencing that needs repair, that's not going to warrant cancelling the reservation.


we must be looking at different maps?
