Su La Strata Villa by CorfuEscapes

The house looks cozy and intimate from outside. It is not far away from Gaios( about 2km, 15 min walk).

It is a pitty that such a lovely, tiny house is not proper cleaned and renovated. It was very disapointing to stay in a house where you pay around 400 euro/night to find dirt everywhere in the house. The floor was dirty, the bathroom was dirty, the cupboard and cutlery drawer were dirty. The dish rack was rusty, there was rust on the bed frame( they didn't care at least to paint it before the season opening). There were a lot of improvised things in this house: The old kitchen cabinet doors were placed on the wall as a tv stand and they replaced them with cheap Pvc ones. In the bathrooms they put the condensation hoses from the air conditioner on the shower wall and the water dripped continuously. The water in the swimming pool was not proper treated and it looked unclear. Although a care man came a few times I found the water clear only on the last day. A leak problem has also occurred and the owners repaired it, but onestly we didn't take a bath even once for the whole perioud as the water didn't look well. Also, we didn't eat our breakfast there as all the dishes and pots were worn and everything there was looking unkempt. The clients are not stupid, we see these things, we felt offended, you cannot claim that you put a price on cleaning when in fact you offer what I have described. With just a small investment and taking care of the cleaning, things can be improved. One other important thing, the access to the propriety is on a very narrow and steep road and the parking place is very very small and difficult to turn and enter the gate. So I appreciate it is suitable to park only cars no more than 4.2- 4.3 m.

The location is stunning, the whole island is breathtakingly beautiful, small villages and harbours, dramatic bays and coves, lush vegetation, the island has everything. The Villa sits surrounded by olive trees and is quiet and peaceful with just the sound of crickets and birds to listen to. The hosts are exceptional and friendly and made it clear to contact them if there were anything at all we needed. The hosts even took time to meet us at the ferry port when we left to wish us farewell. Altogether a fantastic week, in a fantastic place and we will definitely be going back.

location & polite Host

* We had rent a house for 5 persons, but the 5th person had to sleep in a bunk (portable bed) uncomfortable and small in the living room. *The house was not as clean as it should be for paying 1300Euro for five nights!! * There were aunts all over the bedroom and we had to call Owners to extinguish them. *Inconvenient parking and only for one car. The Host guided us to park the 2nd car in a nearby plot where the neighbor came out and shouted to us every day for parking in his property. *The swimming pool wasn't as clean as it should be. * The house was full of humidity, we could barely breath at night. *The screens in the window were ripped out and insects came in. The house was not value for money at all.. we paid Euro1300 for five nights which did not correspond to the facilities offered.
