very inflexible booking conditions. lots of requirements after booking and when you don’t want to go through all those extra requirements, they charge you to cancel
Response from WhimstayMar 13, 2025
Thanks for your feedback. As we mentioned via email, the requirements for the property you booked as well as the cancellation details were clearly shown on the property detail page before booking. We value transparency and work to ensure all essential information is displayed clearly before booking. If you have any questions in the future, we're happy to help.

There were nothing but problems with the holiday home from the start. A broken dishwasher, fridge, and power sockets. Play equipment was broken, the air conditioning didn't work, stones had fallen into the pool, there wasn't enough cutlery, towels and sheets were dirty, and so on. Communication with the landlord was a complete disaster. We must have called 20 times and written at least as many emails. The dishwasher was replaced after a week, as was the air conditioning control, which still didn't work. A refund or anything else for the lost vacation time and for the missing services for which the full price was charged was refused. We were offered a voucher for $50. Simply ridiculous. Once and never again. So be careful who you book with, definitely not here!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how frustrating it must have been to experience these issues during your stay, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. As a marketplace, Whimstay partners with hosts who manage their properties directly, including maintenance, amenities, and refund decisions. While we escalated your concerns and advocated on your behalf, the host determined that no further refunds would be issued. We recognize that this is not the resolution you were hoping for and that the delays in repairs impacted your experience which is why we issued the credit directly from us at Whimstay. We’ve shared your concerns with the host’s leadership team to reinforce the importance of proactive communication and timely resolutions. Additionally, we've made recent improvements to make reviews more visible to help inform travelers about specific properties and hosts. We hope that you'll try another stay with a different host to see some of the great stays we have to offer. Before you book, please talk with our team as we'd love to personally help you find a great stay.

I like the ease of searching for a place that's right for us. The option to pay half at booking and the other half at a later date is great.

Whimstay was absolutely amazing. The whole process was easy and the selection of stays was fantastic. I get stressed with all the planning stuff when traveling, so it’s nice when you find a site that makes the process a little easier. 🙌
