Really nice but not the villa shown in the pictures
The villa was lovely and spacious. It's location was great for those who want to be away from the tourist crowds (and we did). Maro and Eva were wonderful and we had a delicious lunch at Maro's mother's taverna on the way to the villa.
However, there are at least three units on the property and we were not placed in the villa that is pictured on HomeAway. This was very disappointing. While our unit was very nice, it was not as private as there were other guests that shared a wall and were only separated by a fence. This is not the impression depicted by the photos and the property description, which were deceiving. We expected to be the only guests on the property and expected to be in the unit that is pictured. If I had realized that this was a multi unit property I would have booked elsewhere, especially considering the rates. I thought I was paying a premium price for privacy and we did not get it here.
This is particularly upsetting to me because after I booked but also after the cancellation deadline, I noticed that someone else commented about not being placed in the villa they booked. I sent an message requesting clarification and never got a response to my inquiry regarding whether we would be placed in the villa depicted, while other questions in the same message were answered.
This is a shame because it soured me on the entire rental, which otherwise was very positive.
I think both the owner and HomeAway have a responsibility to be truthful about the space that is being booked. Here they both failed in that regard.
