GBBlue Pacific-Nice Properties/Poor Customer Service My family and I have rented from Blue Pacific for over 15 years. The reason we continued to rent thru them was a result of the properties they offered. The customer service level was average at best and often felt like we were bothering them whenever we had a question or request. Covid-19 brought our dissatisfaction to a different level. Their unwillingness to be flexible from their boiler plate T's and C's was frustrating and disappointing. This is a once in 100 years pandemic, and you would think just like most rental agencies and businesses, Blue Pacific would adjust their policies. Not the case. We followed the guidelines of the CDC and the mandate issued by the Governor of Oregon to determine whether or not we would take a family vacation. Blue Pacific would always revert back to the T's and C's of the contract, and even took the liberty to interpret the Governor's mandate saying this mandate didn't apply to vacation rentals. I had to laugh. Evidently, Blue Pacific must have an employee with a legal background:) Even though our party included 4 different families from multiple states numbering 14 in all-exactly the situation the CDC and the Governor mandate were targeting. Some of these family members with pre-existing medical conditions. My advice is to avoid Blue Pacific. Excellent properties to rent, sub par customer service. Nice to do business with a company you want to do business with rather than you have to do business with.

GBPoorly Managed We stayed in three different units. All were dirty. The last one was better because I complained about the condition of the previous two. These units are not being managed well by the company or the owners. It's too bad because this company used to be top notch!

GBBlue Pacific says COVID does not apply?!? As you can see from the numerous reviews since COVID, this company has taken advantage of its customers - many of them being long-time customers such as ourselves (13 rentals!). We also had to cancel due to having multiple families coming from various parts of the country; many with underlying health conditions. It was one of the most painful transactions we've ever dealt with. We weren't even asking for a refund - we asked if we could apply our payment to the home the following year. Not "per the contract". COVID didn't exist when the contract was agreed upon! Rude, would not return calls, would not abide by the guidelines set forth by Oregon's governor. Our own family made the decision to vacation in Sunriver alone, without the rest of our family. We called a few other property management companies, along with VRBO - they ALL had very lenient cancellation policies during this pandemic. Ended up using "Village Properties at Sunriver" - very gracious and helpful with our many calls. Also, we found after renting from a different company, the "clean up" mandated by Blue Pacific is ridiculous! This was the first year, the only thing we needed to do was take out the trash and start the dishwasher - done. Not the case with Blue Pacific. The housekeeping fee BP charges would indicate a spotless home upon arrival - it's "surface" clean but never feels real clean. Blue Pacific is not local and not nice. Avoid, avoid, avoid, and be kind and support the many other local businesses in Sunriver!

GBEncourages Canceling VRBO Reservation and Booking Direct I made a reservation through VRBO for a luxury rental in Sunriver, OR. The reservation was confirmed and my credit card was charged ($3K). My reservation was confirmed on Tues. Thursday I received a phone call at work from Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals claiming there was an error in the rate charged. I was at work and unable to discuss the matter, much less understand the fast talking representative. I requested they email me with the details. A series of emails ensued, with Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals providing a vague explanation of “the problem”, but explicitly offering a different total cost, excluding the VRBO fee. Today, Sun, I had a chance to look at the situation and called VRBO for their assistance. VRBO requested I forward them the email with Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals “offer”, which is a violation of VBRO’s policy. I was out on hold while Blue Pacific Vacation Rental was contacted by VRBO. After a few minutes, VRBO returned to the call, and said Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals mentioned they were “uncomfortable” with my reservation, and canceled it. Wait…what? They were uncomfortable with me and my $3K, (for 5 days) and VIOLATED the terms with VRBO, but I’m at fault? BEWARE! Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals has unethical business practices.

GBAvoid Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals Blue Pacific Vacation Rentals was extremely inflexible handling our planned vacation rental during the COVID-19 pandemic, they absolutely stonewalled us and refused any reasonable accommodation. We made our reservation a year in advance, along with a deposit, for a July 2020 vacation rental. The balance in full was made on March 1, 2020, just prior to the pandemic breaking out. They refused to roll our existing vacation rental to 2021 and ignored the fact that there is a global pandemic. We rented from them 5 previous times and always paid on time and respected their properties, leaving them as we found them. Blue Pacific showed horrid customer service, complete disregard for prior customer loyalty and utterly failed to "do the right thing".
