Very Disappointing Location
Greco Hilltop Views is in a "Development" of 13 properties which is accessed via ~1500 metres of dirt road. The "Development" consists of 13 properties, 5 of which are occupied at least part-time via rentals etc and are maintained. The other 8 properties have been vacated, abandoned, overgrown, internals and externals stripped out etc. The doors, windows and roofs have been vandalised and smashed. There is no street lighting to speak of. My wife was terrified there at night and didn't sleep for the first few nights. We tried to get back to the villa after dinner before it got too dark. In short I think the location is entirely unsuitable for Hotels.com to be renting to your customers.
The Villa itself was fine and there were only minor issues with it.It was clean, quite well furnished and bed linens / towels etc were excellent. It would have benefited from some instructions on how to use the hob and oven. The television had extensive program options in various languages and appeared that service was via the internet connection. Unfortunately for >50% of the time the channels were unwatchable due to lagging / freezing of the picture / sound which I assume (but don't know for sure) was due to the internet service.
Overall a very unsatisfactory stay.
I can supply photos of the abandoned properties in the "Development" if its of any assistance.
