Monte Smith Hill

Everything was really good, the team is excellent

The place met the expectations and we had a very nice stay. It looks exactly as in the pictures, has everything you could need and it is very cozy. The host was really helpful and friendly. Good locations as well, walking distance from the old town, nice sunset view just a few steps away and easy parking on the street.

What a beautiful apartment! Huge living room with a dining area, nice kitchen, spacy sleeping room with great shades (gets really dark at night) and beautiful terrace with a lounging area! We were equipped with shower gel and shampoo, lots of towels and some snacks. The owner also sent us lots of recommendations for bars, pools and restaurants before the trip and was almost available 24/7. If we needed some help or anything else, she replied quickly and took care of it. The pictures do it justice. Yes, the bathroom is rather small but it was ok. The other rooms are spaciuos and the view from the entrance is mindblowing! Also, the apartment was really clean when we arrived. I mean, really clean! The beach was 10min by foot and the supermarket as well.

The only thing that really bothered us was the Wifi. The connection went on and off and the router needed to be restarted all the time by the neighbour. So if you want to work here, keep that in mind. Besides that, I think a SmartTV with streaming apps (although wifi needed) would enhance the experience of the apartment.

Located in a residential area approx 1.5 klm’s from town

The address could/should also be shown in English. The local taxi driver took 35 minutes to find the proprty

Realy nice apartment, nice area, close to Akropolis, old town and city beach. The host gave us lots of recomendations for restaurants and activities also places outside the tourist areas. Nice.

The apartment is renovated, sunny, and impeccably clean, with all the amenities you need, including a Nespresso machine, coffee/tea facilities, shampoo, and more. Everything is decorated with care, just like the pictures. The comfortable, big bed and efficient A/C were much appreciated during the June heat. You can enjoy your breakfast every day or your wine at night in the fresh, private garden. The friendly, professional staff helped us with our luggage. The apartment is only a 7-8 minute walk to the Old Town and a 10-minute walk to the center. Parking is available right outside the apartment. You can enjoy the most beautiful sunset while walking outside the apartment

The location is a fantastic spot, on the cliff side, tiny walk up the road when the sun is setting is exceptionally gorgeous view. As well as during the day seeing Turkey across the water. And not such a far walk from the main city centre or old town. Although it's uphill to get to the place so be ready for that. The location has a couple cats about, one of those cats is very friendly so keep and eye out for the white and ginger cat. I've named him Simba.

Whilst the apartment is rather modern looking, in terms of functionality it isn't the best. The bathroom is quite small, the shower room is quite claustrophobic and it isn't very clear how to get the thing to work so maybe ask the lady to show you how. I tried everything but it all felt so flimsy so I just showered using the tap in the shower rather than the overhead. Which means showering in a crouched position. I'm quite skinny and even for me that was tight. Also got the issue with the toilets in which you can't put toilet paper in them. Not really much the property can do about that as it's a structural issue but it's just a heads up. The air conditioning for the living room works just fine but for the bed room it doesn't seem to do anything as it still gets hot even when left on most the night. Waking up sweaty and hot isn't pleasant. As well as the bedroom window covering, it has a thin see through veil but for privacy you're meant to be able to pull down the shutters but despite how much i tried I couldn't get them down, broken or something so we ended up lacking privacy for the bedroom. Both bedroom and living room TVs may as well not be there, they're old and cheap and lack modern forms of entertainment like Netflix or even YouTube. Upon some research the TV is a cheap Chinese brand and you can tell by the terrible Sound and visual quality. Granted being in Greece you aren't expected to stay home all day but at the end of the day it's nice to have some entertainment for when you want it. The property looks so fancy and sleak in the photos but up close you realise how dated and old a lot of it is. That climbable up bed looks pretty on picture but I wouldn't trust climbing up there, pretty dangerous honestly with how weak the wood looks. The doors are exceptionally loud and again weak feeling. The front door is slightly awkward to open but not a big deal once you figure it out.

Great location, comfortable, clean and amazing host! We enjoyed our stay very much, and got a lot of great tips for local restaurants and places to visit.
