Overall highly recommended!
The apartment:
- Location: like the other guests said, super convenient and strategic: there are a few really nice beaches around here within 10min, and we can get to either the north or the south with a reasonable time. There are a few mid-sized supermarkets plus a watermelon truck nearby, and let's not forget the best fish shop where they make your choice of seafood right on the spot :)
- The environment: spacious and clean, aircon in the living room is great, the three big bedrooms are also very nice.
- Amenities: had everything we needed and if not, usually Tasos or the parents will bring them quite quickly. We especially appreciated the basket full of shampoo, hand cream, and sunscreen :)
One tiny thing: we had 2 toilet rolls for the week-long stay and was advised to buy more ourselves. It would have been a better experience if we could just get a few more from the host. Same with the cooking oil, we just needed a little to cook but was also advised to get it ourselves.
The host:
When things go well, anyone can be a good host; it's when things don't go so well, that's what sets great hosts apart. Tasos is a prime example of a great host, and this is one example why: the washing machine broke down one night, and Tasos was extremely professional at handling this situation. First he checked our safety, calmed our emotions, then he addressed every concern we had, and had someone repair it the next day. Then he communicated when it was fixed, and even the root cause of the issue, so that we didn't have to worry about it being broken again. There was no fuss at all and I really appreciated how this went.
Thanks again and we'll definitely choose Tasos' apartment again if we come back :)
