The written word and the spoken word can often mean different things!
The glory of any forum is that views and information can be exchanged. It doesn't mean one is right and the other wrong it just means the sharing of thoughts and ideas. I apologise if you felt it was a hornets nest that was not my intention. I actually felt ganged up on but hey ho!

Is it OK for members to leave reviews of villas and apartments that are rented from the villa companies advertised on this site such as sealandvillas and villa parade etc ?

It's a tricky subject I know.

As you say it IS tricky & we just do not have the resources to deal with & police 'reviews'. There are already several threads here where people have asked about properties that are featured in these companies brochures & websites & previous guests have responded. Of course this is fine.

I'm sorry you felt ganged up on Eleanor, you were quite strong in your opinions & surely everyone has a right to reply & their own opinion too. No-one was rude, just stating their view on the subject with no intention of ganging up.

I think on reflection this is the best way to go, if people want to know about a specific property then they can ask for members experiences. Although it doesn't help when people just want to praise a property & their owners but maybe this could be included in a general holiday review.
Obviously its quite a difficult area & would be more trouble than its worth to have it as a thread.

Providing feedback about anything can be an art. Its often known as a sh1t sandwich.

My family and I used a rental property in PP only 3 weeks ago where on return i sent the 'contact/keyholder' an email providing both positive and developmental feedback about the property. We did not raise the issues at the time of our stay as we did not want to be the family at such a place that are complainers but felt the changes could me made for the benefit of the persons staying after us. Sadly, the contact/keyholder failed to even respond to my email. I will now avoid any rental property where that persons contact name is used.

Its a shame we cannot use feedback about properties as i for one would certainly use it
