Ongoing dispute:I booked a villa in Kefalonia on Airbnb. Immediately after booking, I went onto Google to find things to do in the area and came across two independent reviews from the last 3 weeks, of squatters living underneath the swimming pool, with needles and other paraphernalia scattered around the entrance. Seemingly the people acted aggressively and Solmar denied it until there were photographs provided.Within 20minutes of making the booking, I requested to cancel for obvious reasons.They took a long time to reply, have tired to reassure me by denying there’s an issue and they won’t cancel the booking. When there are a reports of drugs and illegal squatters, I can’t understand why they wouldn’t respect my request to cancel?? It’s totally unethical and arguably fraudulent.
