Overall a good house for a group vacation, conveniently located and is very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay for most part except for one specific experience - We were highly disappointed by how the host treated us at check out.
We were aware that a late check-out wasn’t an option and were nearly ready to leave the painters house at 10am (check out time). However, the host came over to the house 5 minutes prior to check out and literally yelled at us at 9.58am and stressed on the fact that he wanted us out by 10am. He was extremely rude and didn’t care to give us even an extra 5 minutes inspite of us apologizing.
We would understand if we were incredibly late and causing an issue for the host to check in the next set of guests, however the next check in was only at 2pm!
The host had been accessing the house everyday day for house keeping services (while we were in the house/ rooftop) and could have easily gotten on with things even on the day of check out, giving us some time to move out our bags. It almost felt like we were dealing with a different person since until that moment he was extremely friendly and helpful. He had initially offered to keep our bags until it was time for our ferry at 5pm and when we asked if he could help us do that he declined and said he didn’t have the time to do so anymore and shut the door on us.
This episode was rather unfortunate and dampened our overall great experience in santorini!
