Meneou Seaside Mansion 7

I like the location and I liked the potential of this accommodation.

Take a seat!... issues found with the property included: •TVs in the bedrooms do not work •Sauna does not work •No pool cover is provided •the net to clean the pool had snapped so I had to take a mop apart to use the handle to create a makeshift pool net to remove all the leaves and bugs. Reported this and was told a replacement was on the way...it never came. •Bulbs out in various rooms and the pool •Rubbish/rubble left in the garden areas •No instruction manual. For example, we had to figure out how to get hot water. Could not get most of the heaters to blow warm air so could not use them. •could not get the outside awnings to work •storage shelf on inside of fridge door is snapped so milk etc could fall out •shaver points would not work •back door really stiff to open as the bottom is scraping on the frame •one security light outside continually flashes on and off all night. Had to turn off. •large upstairs en suite. Had to stop using the shower as it floods the bathroom floor •upstairs communal shower. Water leaks through the glass panel and floods the floor. Had to use a small towel to stop it going everywhere. •general condition of the property was poorly kept. Even the painting of the walls was done to a very low standard where painting has actually been done. Definitely needs a fresh lick of paint throughout. •it looks like air con units have been removed from various parts of the property and replaced with paintings. However the painting in the downstairs bedroom will not stay in place and there is a huge hole with a large electric cable behind it. There are 3 paintings covering 3 separate holes all with the electric cable. •there are tiles that are loose around the edge of the pool. Could easily have fallen in the pool if it was stood on without knowing. Luckily we spotted them so avoided walking on them. •security gate for the drive way does not work.

It was nice and secluded very spacious

Pool was only 4 foot deep, air-conditioning was poor in some rooms, broken shelves in kitchen cupboards, not having instant hot water. I feel it was over priced for what we got

Good sized rooms including bedrooms - beds were comfortable - property clean throughout

Very tired and dated clearly not maintained - various leaks where rainwater came through from flat roofs in one case dangerously so from a window into an electrical power socket. Laminate flooring in living room was falling apart with large gaps. Not nearly enough furniture for up to 10 people only 5 sunbeds and a few patio chairs the adjoining table was in extremely poor condition. Broken tiles around the pool were in a dangerous condition with sharp edges - The entrance gate could not be closed broken and twisted. No information pack with local knowledge or places of interest for dining or historic sites. The directions to the property were incorrect and caused great confusion, it should read Meneou seaside

The house is spacious BUT ........

The house needs so much upgrading, let's start from the heating water system, you have to switch it on manually two hours before and it will automatically switch off, so if you like to have a shower in the morning you have to wake up two hours earlier, if you are out all day, you have to wait for two hours to take a shower when you get back. Not convenient when you are on holiday. On our second day we woke up without electricity. I called and was told to walk all the way down the street to check the safety switch (means it happens often) unfortunately it was not the case and within the hour the maintenance guy came. He could not fix the fault so we ended up with half the lights in the house and outdoor area (by 5:30pm it was already dark). All the facilities need immediate replacing as they barely function - cooker, dishwasher and washing machine. Oh and by the way there is a snooker table but the ques are not usable. I needed to use the mop and went looking for it, there is a room behind the parking space and I opened it to check if it is there and next to all the tools and dirt they keep all the bed linen and towels, not on a shelf (because there are no shelves) but on the floor. I have been to places that are a 100% better and even cheaper all around Europe. I also had been to Aya Napa in peak season and had a better villa than this. The price we paid is too high for what you get !! If they use the money I paid they can upgrade all the appliances, get some new ques and put a shelf in the store room. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL !!!

Lots of space, quiet area.

Very noisy as very little furniture. The router was just placed on the floor near the main door. I wasn't keen on all the tables being glass. Could do with some furniture to make it feel more comfortable. A big empty space. Pool could do with a clean and possibly a cover to prevent leaves blowing in. Place is a little tired, flooring has gaps in the laminate and skirting boards coming away from the wall. No instructions left on the premises how to get hot water, using the TV , or where to take the rubbish. Nice welcome pack when we arrived. This could be a really lovely property if the owners have it some attention. Opened a cupboard in my bathroom to find the previous occupants dirty towels in the bottom. Very nice bedside cabinets, however they are cushioned tops which means you could put a glass if water on them without it falling over.. The front gate was broken, it was difficult to get our hire car into the drive as the gate wasn't fully open and jammed. This could be a lovely property if it was given some attention and repairs completed.

The rooms were generous sizes, plenty of space for everyone. Pool was good. Welcome pack was a nice touch. Reasonable bus service to Larnaca.

Little run down. Difficult to find, for food delivery/taxis. Bit out of the way, really need a car to get around.

Nice setting and plenty of space

Starting to feel a bit tired and in need of modernisation and redecoration.

Our Host Mary was very fast und friendly
