The apartment in San Foca is a great place for your beach holidays in the South of Italy. It has everything that you need for it: A big terrasse, an air con, a shower outside that is perfect to use after returning from the beach, a safe parking space. Furthermore, the apartment was very clean and is perfectly located. It is just a few blocks away from a nice public beach. Next to it is also a great Lido with a good restauarant. You‘ll find also close to the apartment a small food store where you can buy your breakfast, pastas and other belongings for your stay.
We just believe that the check-in process could be improved. We had to pay the bed sheets and blankets separately as well as the city taxes and a stamp for the receipt. To do so, we had to sign a separate contract that was all in Italian and therefore not understanadable if you do not speak Italian. Of course, all these extra costs are transparently communicated in the advertisement. However, we believe that most, if not all of these extra costs could be integrated into the AirBnB price. Therefore, everything could be dealt via AirBnB, which would facilitate and secure procedures.
Also communication could be improved. As the flat is run by an agency, we were dealing with three different persons. Therefore, it took us a while to understand who to contact in case of issues. This fact prevented us to communicate exclusively via the AirBnB platform, which we had preferred.
Beside these points, the flat is still a great place and when fixing these issues, definitely worth a five star AirBnB.
