This house is in a great location with easy access to restaurants and beach. The pool was great and the house was clean. HOWEVER, I would rather stay somewhere else. The host asked us to wire him the money, which we had to pay the fee for the wire because he would rather avoid the credit card fee on his end. From the minute we booked this place, I started getting emails regarding the payments constantly. We wired the money and then he attempted to charge our credit card. Given the bigger amount my credit card asked for confirmation, which I declined. Then, his bank charged him a fee to receive the wire and he then turned around and sent me easily 10 emails stating that I had to pay that fee. This was not pleasant at all - customer service was not something he thought he should apply here. He then told me I should consider that the house was clean - at which point I lost it and said if Im paying this amount of money, of course Im expecting a clean place.
Again, although the house was clean and in great location, Id rather stay somewhere else to avoid dealing with people like him on my vacation.
I dont know if other countries/banks charge for wires but this guy was truly not great to deal with. Id rather stay in this location but somewhere else.
