Maria's House With Garden & BBQ

Great little house 10 minutes walk from a large beach, has a parking space, large veranda, large living room and kitchen space, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped. The hosts are responsive and kind. The house is not in the city, but the city is 10 minutes away by car.

At first I wondered what was smelling bad in the bathroom and kitchen while I was washing the dishes - it turned out that it wasn't mold, but in fact the water itself smelled very bad. The toilet got clogged, which we tried to fix ourselves, but it turned out to be quite difficult. The hosts responded and called specialized equipment and people who quickly dealt with the problem. But the bad smell of the water did not disappear. In our opinion, it is because the water probe is in close proximity to the septic tank/sewer and apparently there is mixing somewhere in the soil, maybe. These are just our assumptions, but there was definitely a serious problem with the water during our stay.

Confortable beds.

For those who might wonder what this long review aims to imply , it's just :" Don't go there !" This place would be , especially for those who travel accompanied by their children or other relatives , who only want to get a breath of fresh air and relax in the wonderful, exceptional and stunning Greece , a complete disastrous accommodation . I don't even know where to start . Although this place looks stunning on booking , giving you the idea that it's the perfect "Villa" for an exceptionally low price , the reality can not be any further than that ! The bedrooms were unexpectedly small, with almost no natural light , the beds were fine and comfortable though . However we could barely sleep because the entire house felt like an enormous breeding nest for mosquitos rather then a welcoming household . They were all over the place and we couldn't stand a chance to get rid of all of them , no matter how much we tried , they left us with lots of bites that made it impossible for us to appreciate the precious time we spent in Greece . Now let's talk about the bathroom , the one and only bathroom in the house that had almost no running water with a pressure that was so low that 5 people needed almost 1 ½ hours to take a "quick" shower . In addition to that , even though we followed the host's instructions , we had about 10 minutes of hot water and then , no matter how much we waited , the only solution was to take cold showers. The grill was in a deplorable state and there was no wood for preparing a meal using it and there were neither enough knives nor forks to eat with . Apart from all of this , the location has potential if the host decides to engage more in maintaining it in good condition .

Kuća je u mirnom kraju i blizini plaže, oko 800m i bez gužve. Vrlo ljubazne komšije Grci sa koima smo imali lepu komunikaciju. Kuća i dvorište su odlični, za pravi porodični odmor. Veliki pozdrav za vlasnika, vidi se da je posvećeno radio na svemu. Vlasnika nismo upoznali, pošto nas je agencija sačekala i nismo sa njima nešto zadovoljni.

Imali smo problem sa pritiskom vode. Slali smo poruku agenciji ali se nisu javljali sve vreme našeg boravka. Nije nam to pokvarilo utisak pošto je sve ostalo bilo dobro

The house was in a very good condition and very clean as well as the bed sheets and towels. The indoor decoration is minimal and resembles the calm feeling that a summer house should provide. I really liked the outdoor furniture in the balcony and the fact that the house has a garden and a BBQ in front of the balcony, it provides a nice view. Also, the balcony is spacious so it is really easy to walk and carry stuff there. In addition, the house has an outdoor shower which was a very nice surprise and we mainly used that and not the indoor one. Big thanks to the hosts, they made us feel welcomed and comfortable and they answered every question that we had.

One thing that could be improved is the bathroom. The slope in the shower is not adequate so it results in the accumulation of water a bit further from the drain. We had to push a bit the water towards the drain to remove it, which was ok for us but I imagine that if more people use the shower then probably the accumulation will be bigger. Also, I would suggest that an addition of double bed would make it more comfortable for couples instead of only single beds. But of course this is just an opinion.
