First, this was not the property we originally booked, we were either to move to theia villa or cancel ourselves. We had booked this about 6 months prior to the confirmation date and then when the trip came closer to the date our host had told us that this property had already been booked. I didnt understand this since we already had a confirmation for this and due to airbnb policy. We needed a place to say still, so he put us in theia villa.
The Theia Villa property itself was very beautiful and the view from the pool area is great.
Checkin and communication was very bizarre, there was a communication barrier just a bit but even considering that our host was very frustrated, rude, and curt when communicating with us.
In one of the rooms the drain to the shower doesn’t work and flooded, and is a know problem but we weren’t told. The air conditioning in the living room doesn’t work either. And be wary of the pool area, it is very slick. We slipped and fell.
The one thing that really put a bad taste in my mouth was at around 930 pm on the last night the host came to the property unannounced and opened the door to the living room where we were hanging out. and just asked if there was anything he needed to know about the property and when we were going to be checking out in the morning. Soon after the power went out and as a group of only women traveling this was very very unsettling. It just happened to be a coincidence but if I was paying almost 700$ a night I would be expecting so much more.
We wanted to be on the sea on the water but we needed a place to stay and he moved us to theia villa without making us pay more then we did for our original booking.
This of course could all be wrong place wrong time, but this was my experience.
