Ali - Great news! Well done. All the best for that.
My previous comments came directly from a property owner whose 'office' was the bar LOL and one afternoon he had what was obviously a 'business' meeting with a chap wearing a tie, with a briefcase. We stayed at a respectful distance on the other side of the pool (although it was all Greek to us anyway LOL) Afterwards we said to him 'That looked very serious' - he was obviously quite rattled and as there was no-one else there he told us the other chap was his solicitor and what the holiday company had done to him and others in the village. He hadn't signed over the whole of his property - but with the lack of revenue over the previous couple of years, there was by now no spare cash to pay for advertising elsewhere.
I really hope he managed to pull it round, cos it was superb accommodation, absolutely pristine and well-cared for - cleaning and clean towels every day, bedlinen every 2nd day, huge rooms, balconies all about half as big as the shared one on the front at Zorbas, quite a large pool, terrace, beautiful gardens, if you ordered anything with salad he went and picked it - etc etc
It was the World Cup semi and final whilst we were there - and that was completely manic - to say the least! (I have to say, manic locals, not yer archetypal lager louts - but it would just have been rude not to join in, wouldn't it?)
