Our stay in La Cimetta
We had a nice time at La Cimetta. The house is very cozy and nicely decorated, situated in a beautiful area. The pool is large and well-kept. The surroundings provide peace and intimacy. Behind the fence there is a vineyard and an olive grove. We haven't met any other tourists in the area. Nearby (a few minutes by car) there are some very good restaurants where local people eat. The owner is nice and helpful, but in case of any questions / problem, it happened that she did not answer the phone and called back the next day. The wine she produces in her vineyard is worth recommending - we bought several boxes for home.
On arrival, we were greeted by the owner and her husband, who seemed dissatisfied with the fact that strangers would be living in his house.
We were surprised to have to pay a deposit, which was not included in the announcement on the VRBO portal. In addition, it turned out that we had to pay for the electricity consumed at the end of the stay. Considering the very high price of renting the property, these costs are small, but the surprise was unpleasant. The rental price should take into account the consumption of basic utilities. So far, neither we nor our friends have encountered such a situation in other properties. On the day of departure, it turned out that we have over 80 euro to pay (for 1 week) - it was surprising because we are people who consume electricity economically. The owner quoted 45 cents for 1 kWh, which is probably not a real price. The people who collected the keys from us were very nice, although they did not speak English. They were not prepared to return the deposit, they had no cash with them. We covered the purchase amount of the wine from the deposit. We left 100 euros to cover the electricity costs. The owner promised that she would count the exact amount and return the rest to our account, but so far we have not received any information or refund. It's not about big money, but leaves an unpleasant impression. Due to this the departure was a bit stressful for us.
To sum up - the area is beautiful and peaceful, the house is cozy and comfortable with a nice swimming pool, you can eat well in the area. However, a few details need to be fine-tuned in terms of rental costs.
