No problems at all
Having read the previous review I had some concerns, but these were unnecessary. We arrived about 45 minutes early, but only had to wait a few minutes until the people next door (the owners parents I believe) arrived to let us in. Whilst they spoke no English they were able to show us all we needed to know in about five minutes and then they left us to it. They were very friendly. The man did come in early in the morning during our stay to water plants and check the pool, but unless you're a very early riser (06:30) you will not see or hear him. We certainly had no concerns about privacy.
The owner also checked with us shortly after to make sure that everything was ok, and to make sure that we had a number to reach her if necessary.
The house itself is exactly as described, rustic but with all the modern appliances you need in the kitchen. It has everything needed. The pool is a very good size with plenty of space around it. There are plenty of shaded areas to sit outside too.
Whilst the house is a little out of town we were able to walk right down to the beach and all the restaurants in 15 minutes without too much effort. A pleasant enough walk on a warm evening. I wouldn't recommend walking back in the dark as the lighting isn't great, but you can get a taxi just past the Holiday Inn, facing Cafe Busiris, and that will only cost five Euros.
We enjoyed our stay and I have no hesitation in recommending this property. I would happily return to it of I were staying in the area again.
