Be careful booking this!

The rental was obviously very cleverly photographed as it appeared to look spacious and nicely decorated! In fact it was small, tired decor and a basic old kitchen! The pool area didn’t have any sun loungers so no laying by the pool! On arrival despite me being in contact with the agents Genteel Properties advising them of our check in time the house had not been cleaned from the previous guests! I discussed all my concerns with them but they were not interested in trying to find a way to accommodate my disappointment despite me asking to see if they could try to resell our dates in which case we could be refunded if they managed to! Sadly their lack of customer care was highlighted as we had friends in an identical situation (on the same development) who booked through Airbnb with another agent who were happy to offer them alternatives and then fully refund them when their alternatives weren’t to their liking either! Ended up sticking it out for 8 nights but leaving 5 days early as it wasn’t much of a holiday!!!

Dear Katy,

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. 

We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. 

Upon reviewing the case, we found no attempt from you to contact us to report any issues before or during your stay. We would like to inform you that the property's measurements are clearly indicated in the description, and as per the listing, the pool does not include sun loungers.

We take customer service very seriously and regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback, which will help us improve in the future. 

We would like the opportunity to make this experience better for you in the future, so please feel free to contact us directly for any further assistance.

DO NOT BOOK VIA HOLIDU

DO NOT BOOK VIA HOLIDU! I’ve never experienced anything as distasteful in my life. I have sent a request (well within the time frame) to change the duration of my trip, which they confirmed via email. And now they say that since I didn’t do the change directly in the app, that the changes won’t be done. They are basically stealing 5000kr from us.
SCAMERS. Do not book through this company.

We were about to fly....And they cancelled!

We were about to fly, 17 hours to go. And then we get a call and this message from Holidu:

Dear Simon,

Thank you for taking our call.

We have now cancelled your Airbnb booking, and Airbnb will automatically process your refund.

Unfortunately, we currently have no suitable alternatives available for your desired dates. The Airbnb service team will also be happy to help you find alternatives if necessary.

Once again, we would like to apologise for the inconvenience and remain at your disposal should you have any questions.

Best regards,

Dear Simon,

We are truly sorry for the situation that occurred and completely understand your frustration. 

Unfortunately, the issue with the property was both serious and unexpected: a flood caused significant failures in the house's systems, rendering it unsafe and uninhabitable. Airbnb classified this situation as a force majeure, and the cancellation was processed according to that policy.

We fully understand that this does not ease the frustration of losing flight and parking expenses. Since those services were booked separately and are not part of the accommodation agreement, they fall outside the scope of what we (or the host) can reimburse. That is why we suggested contacting your travel insurance.

We appreciate your understanding in this unfortunate matter, and we remain at your disposal for any further questions you may have.

Best regards,
The Holidu Team
