I didn't get to meet Jackie but she was helpful in getting us help in finding the apartment and taking the luggage down the stairs to the apartment. The views from the apartment are the best you can get in Santorini but unfortunately only the views don't help. The apartment is well furnished and has enough space for 2 people and good toiletries provided. But there is an ant problem so big that my wife had to wake up to ant bites and reddish skin one morning. Unacceptable!

The problem was notified to the host but she mentioned that there is an ant and bug spray provided for this purpose in the room and that it was common in the summer. The real reason for the ants is because of the lack of cleanliness. Dead bug on the side of the fridge, the kitchen shelves (removable) have not been cleaned in a long time. We found a bunch of ants around the shelves because there were food particles all over that hadn't been cleaned. It would have been nice if this was mentioned to us on arrival without us having to find the problem ourselves. We would have been better prepared. But even after use of the sprays it didn't help. So big was this problem and was ignored by the host. Every time we left the apartment we sprayed every inch of it with the ant spray but when arriving back after sight seeing the ants would magically appear all over the apartment. I wish the host would at least visit the apartment to ensure there is no problem. The emails and phone calls from the host only helps to a certain extent in providing travel info.

The second problem is the lack of lighting in the apartment. Three of the main lights not working. The host was notified but the electrician as promised didn't show up so we had to make do with the bed side lamp, the kitchen side focus lights and the balcony lights.

I would rate this apartment 5 stars because of its locations and views alone but the problems we faced just don't let me give it the rating it really deserves. All because of the ignorance on the part of the host. What a shame! This place could be great!!! I loved Santorini but it's a shame that I wouldn't be returning to this apartment.
