My review of three stars is primarily because of value reasons. The communication and cleanliness was all good. We negotiated $2450 for 3 nights, roughly $100 per person per night. We spent a total of 14 nights in Greece (Paros, Milos, Santorini, Athens) and this home was the lowest value for our money.
Our party of 9 were disappointed with the house, as it did not show as well in person as it does in the pictures. In retrospect, I noticed a majority of the photos are of the outdoors or of small indoor focal points and not whole rooms. The house and it's furnishings seem old, not fresh and bright. Feels a bit like a grand-mothers home.
To be fair, here are the pros and cons.
Pros
1. Amazing View
2. Spacious enough for a large group to spread out
3. Lovely small pool perfect to enjoy on hot summer afternoons (mostly deep, not for standing)
Cons:
1. Furnishings and house are dated, tired and a bit dark.
2. Windows and doors are not large and as such the amazing view can only be enjoyed from outside the house.
3. The approach/location/roads leading up the the house seem run down. This may be the same all over Milos, not sure.
4. The parking was in a dirt lot, about 3-5 minute walk from the house.
5. Two of the bedrooms do have have air conditioning or ceiling fans.
6. Kitchen basic amenities need upgrading (several drinking glasses chipped, peeling non stick frypans, no spatula to flip eggs). We told the owner and he will take care of it.
7. Walk to Plaka restaurants was an uphill 7 minute walk, not a problem for the fit but seniors may have an issue.
