Preston Green / Vacation Homes Only FRAUD Warning

Feb 21, 2024

Make sure you post a review on their Facebook page. (Or several) Not sure if they have an Insta account. Google and Yelp as well. I got my money back only after I posted all over the web. Best of luck to you, I cannot believe they are still in business, they’ve been pulling this fraud for many, many years.

I am frankly very surprised that "Vacation Homes Only" is even still around and still in business --- after years of so many unhappy "customers" reporting their deep dissatisfaction with their unsuccessful interactions with VHO. It just baffles me.

The Consumer Review Fairness Act makes it illegal for someone to threaten lawsuits or penalize them for posting honest reviews. Report any violations to the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau.

It is not right to take advantage of people this way.. The Consumer Review Fairness Act makes it illegal for someone to threaten lawsuits or penalize them for posting honest reviews. Report any violations to the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau.

We had a similiar situation and are still waiting our full refund, almost 6 months later. It is against the Consumer Review Fairness Act to penalize or threaten lawsuits for people posting honest reviews. Report this to the Better Business Bureau and the Federal Trade Commission.

I have also been defrauded by vacation homes aka banked weeks. I would be happy to join you in pursuing legal restitution. Please email me at darrenjwooden@gmail.com or call/text me at 801-376-2236 The people need to be stopped before others are victimized. Sincerely, Darren Wooden

**DO NOT BOOK WITH NICHOLAS STEWART / VACATIONHOMESONLY / VACATION RENTALS WORLDWIDE**

Our experience was extremely disappointing.

We had a signed contract with Nicholas Stewart at Vacation Homes Only (Preston Green's Company) for a specific vacation rental week. He required payment within 15 minutes, and we paid in full as requested. The very next day, he informed us that the week we had contracted and paid for was not actually available.

This was unacceptable. Our guest had already purchased airfare and made additional travel arrangements based on the confirmation and contract.

Our contract states that if the contracted accommodations are unavailable due to the owner's fault, the owner is responsible for providing comparable or superior accommodations. This was not presented as a resort-related issue, but rather that the reserved week was unavailable after payment had been accepted. Nicholas Stewart did not confirm the reservation before signing the contract and collecting funds.

A refund alone does not address the disruption and expenses caused to our guest.

We were particularly concerned that payment was required immediately, yet the availability of the reservation had apparently not been confirmed before accepting our money.

Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Nicholas Stewart, VacationHomesOnly, or Vacation Rentals Worldwide. If you choose to book with them, be sure availability has been fully verified before sending payment.
