I have been staying at Airbnbs for nearly ten years and this was by far the most extraordinary experience I have ever had in an Airbnb. Marietta and Lorena were kind, generous, thoughtful and joyful. The service they provided was far and away better than a five star resort.
Together and for several months we planned my trip to Greece. Marietta and Lorena provided me with information for car services, tours, trips, dinner reservations and more.
Everything was perfect upon our arrival. Our driver was waiting for us when we arrived and we were shuttled in an immaculate Mercedes van to the heart of Athens. Marietta was waiting for us and had made sure the apartment was beautifully appointed. She had wine chilled for us, fresh flowers and snacks at the ready. This was such a lovely touch after a long trip. The apartment is exactly as shown in photos and description - only better.
The first evening Lorena had made reservations for us to have dinner, and the following day she had reserved a private tour of the Acropolis. Eleni was magnificent! Lorena and I worked together to find the perfect spots to see and dine throughout the trip. Even planning a trip to Hydra for three nights! When we returned our hosts helped me arrange a visit to Poseidon’s Temple about one and one half hours south of Athens.
As a single mom with three grown children I could not have done this trip without Marietta and Lorena’s help. It was the trip of a lifetime.
I offered to provide additional funds for all of the organizing and planning Marietta and Lorena helped me with but they refused, stating “this is the type of service we provide.”
I am so thankful to have selected this Airbnb and I know I will have to return if I am ever to be cared for the way my children and I were.
I wish Marietta and Lorena every great success. Airbnb is fortunate to have this listing - it makes the whole company shine.
