It was just my husband and I staying so the house was quite spacious for our needs. Would be suitable for a family of 5-6 though.
A few things worth noting: great location if you're looking to be removed from people and close to a nice beach. Zorbas beach is a walk from the house and it's really lovely to swim in.
Friendly people around the neighbourhood and some really sweet dogs. There are roosters and chickens next door so it was a great way to wake up with the sunrise.
We stayed for a month at Petros's place and got it at 50% as it was a full months booking. Had we paid the full price, I would have to say it was grossly overpriced. Although spacious, this is by no means a luxury stay. There seems to be works, including electrical, unfinished in the home. The window fixtures, the upstairs partition walls (made of chipboard) as well as the stair case, seem to be non professional installations. Not unusual for a home in this region but not appropriately priced considering. The bathroom was unconventional without a normal shower head that could attach to the wall and there was no window in the bathroom, which meant you had to shower with the door open. Fine for a couple but perhaps not ideal for some families and other travel groups. It was important for us to have a place with kitchen facilities. It was adequately spacious, unfortunately it was ill equipped. The only knives provided were flimsy steak knives. We had to request Petros bring some around, which he had dropped off. There was a damp/musty smell in the kitchen cupboards and almost everything had to be cleaned before use. The power went out on 3 separate occasions. The issue, as far as we can tell, was when we tried to use the oven and hob at the same time (pretty standard kitchen use). It was not a simple matter of safety switch or break circuit but rather we had to contact Petros and he had to get someone to come out and fix it. This meant that we had to seek lighting and food elsewhere for those evenings, as 2 out of the 3 times it happened in the evening. It's also worth noting there were no candles or torches in the house. Premises was advertised with a half barrel bbq which was fine to use, although I do think it needs to be moved to stable ground as it's currently on quite a slant and at risk of falling. The bed was comfortable enough although the mosquito problem made for some extremely unpleasant evenings. Crete in general and the area specifically, there are mosquitos. There were bug zappers and mosquito nets provided, though these were inadequate and we were still plagued by them. We also had mosquito repellent which we were using all the time. The bedroom definitely seemed to have a cluster of them, even when we kept upstairs shut with the AC on they were still getting in. This could easily be mitigated by appropriate fly screens and window fittings.
Our communications with Petros were difficult from the outset. Immediately after making the booking, Petros asked if we could move all communications to WhatsApp, which we agreed to. Lesson learnt. He called my husband and asked to renegotiate the price as he said he did not understand the discount system. At which point he asked us to pay him more money than we'd already paid and we explained that we booked his place as it was within our budget and that's what it was advertised at. He felt it was not enough money and asked that we send him extra, which we declined to do. At which point we offered for him to cancel the booking entirely as we did not want him to feel hard done by. He declined this and we proceeded. In person Petros was pleasant and gave us valuable tips about the island. Although normally responsive via WhatsApp, when it came to the electricity issues, Petros was hard to get a hold of. When we reported it over the Airbnb platform however, he was quick to respond. He seemed evasive regarding the cause of the power issues and insisted the blame lay with the electricity company, even though it was apparent it was his father doing the repairs. During the middle of one such outage, Petros seemed more interested in requesting we write him a good review. Not listed on many Greek Airbnb's, there is a government tax which hosts are required to provide passport numbers of primary guest in order to fill out the form. Petros contacted us after our stay, asking for photos of a passport without any explanation as to why. This was unexpected to say the least. The issue was resolved with the help of Airbnb but I would suggest that any host in Greece who needs to collect this kind of information, inform guests before their stay and only request passport numbers and not photos, for the sake of data protection.
