First I have to mention that I’ve never written such a long and detailed review. I’m afraid we can’t join the positive reviews of this place and feel the need to explain this. We use Airbnb for several years now and have booked over 30 places in various countries, 5 of these accommodations in Greece, and this has been our worst experience in our overall Airbnb career. We don’t expect any luxury with Airbnb and we were aware that this place wouldn’t be incredible for the price (the price wasn’t cheap but for Greece relatively inexpensive, about 75€/night, we had booked the place for 3 nights). We did like the pictures though and the reviews were amazing. So we went for it. If you read the former reviews carefully you will notice that they are mainly about Stella as a person and the amazing view from the balcony. We couldn’t agree more. Stella is wonderful. She gave us a warm welcome, explained some things about the island, she quickly responded to our messages, recommended a car rental and is a very nice person. The view from the balcony is also really nice. The beaches nearby (all in walking distance) are absolutely outstanding. When we arrived, there was a nice basket of fruits in the kitchen which we really appreciated. Thank you for that. The accommodation is a dump though. The pictures are taken in a very clever way. The furniture is the same as in the pictures but it’s just not anywhere as nice and spacious in real life. The kitchenette isn’t slightly separated from the bedroom as you would assume from the pictures. In general no problem, when you cook lots it will make everything smell. We had dinner there and literally all our clothes smelled afterwards. The kitchen area is also not very well looked after and would need a good rub. There are no bathroom pictures in the Airbnb ad and there is a reason for it (as always! We should have known!). It’s terrible. We really didn’t want to shower in there. Using the toilet and sink was ok though. Standard in the most simplest accommodations in Southeast Asia is higher. The cleaner that was mentioned in the reviews before didn’t do the best job before we arrived. Maybe she would have later on.... On the balcony there were wet bread crumbs and food leftovers from the previous guests on the table and on the floor. We are not talking about a few crumbs and it was quite disgusting. Also pieces of wrapping foil on the floor. We cleaned that when we arrived (no problem, but really not our job). Tobe honest I think the cleaner just missed out on cleaning the balcony at all. In the lower bedroom with the two single beds we discovered an ant street. Don’t mind ants at all. They were feeding on some other food left overs on the floor there. Half an hour later these left overs and the ants were gone (good job!), so didn’t mind that. Then we discovered moths. Also not a huge problem. We took 3 of them out on the balcony. While we looked for more moths, we saw the mosquitos. By then we had been in the flat maybe for about 30 min. And made sure all doors and windows were shut at all times as we had read about mosquitos in another review beforehand. So the mosquitos must have come in before we arrived. Many mosquitos. We killed around 15 in all rooms, all blood soaked from the previous guests. Stella will see the traces of the massacre on the walls. Nobody likes mosquitos and we don’t mind getting rid of a few. And it’s also nature that there are a few in a room. We also don’t mind the odd bite, you can’t avoid that. But when there are that many, that just implies there is either something wrong with the flat or they should make a better job at keeping them away (mosquito nets in front of the windows/doors? We had them in other Airbnb’s on other islands in Greece and they worked perfectly well). When we arrived the cleaner “cleaned” our room and all doors were open...maybe that was one of the problems. We have been island hopping in Greece for 2 weeks now and this is our sixth island and nowhere did we experience a mosquito problem like that.... Later in the night there were again 5 mosquitos that probably hid when we had our first round of mosquito massacre and we didn’t catch them the first time. Not fun and you just don’t feel comfortable spending the night there. Like we said the view from the balcony is amazing. Along this coast strip there are many many accommodations, and many of the properties have nice gardens and surroundings. Stella might be working on that, as the house itself has a nice small garden in the back-courtyard. Apart from that it’s just a big parking lot and basically desert. Whereas the apartments directly next to us had green gardens and parks that were well looked after. I didn’t mind so much, my husband pointed it out. I feel sorry for the people that rented the apartments on the ground floor as they didn’t even have the nice view we had! They were sitting there like campers-there is nothing wrong with that and we absolutely love camping. But it was basically the worst version of camping. No trees and green area around-they were staring at their cars that were parked two meters away from them and were sitting next to the desert. Note that the street along the coast is very busy, lots of vehicles going back and forth (there is a lot of building going on along the coast line, so many trucks deliver materials etc.). But that will be the case for any accommodation along that coast strip and wasn’t the main problem. We weren’t happy staying...
