We had a good holiday overall because the property itself is in a fantastic complex. But there were many issues with the property itself which I will get to.
Having arrived home and thought about going back to the same destination next year, we received an email from the host saying that the cleaner had reported that a door handle and locking mechanism wasn't working and that we were being charged £150 for the repair. The thing is that the door wasn't working from before we got there and I noticed this immediately after gaining entry to the property.
I explained this to the host via Vrbo and got no reply. He still hasn't replied. This is nothing more than having a guest pay for maintenance of his property which he should be doing himself.
Now the property, we had two infestations of ants whilst there. First one was in the living room and the second one was in the upstairs bedroom, we even had ants in our bed on one evening which obviously freaked us out. We had cockroaches in the kitchen almost every night, we had them in the cutlery drawer on more than one occasion and found one crawling out of the toaster too, which we obviously never used.
The rooms were scorching hot, especially the downstairs one which the kids were sleeping in. They were waking nightly sweating. There are ceiling fans which we kept going each night, and there are two portable fans one of which is falling apart and therefore not working.
Would return to the complex but not this property.
