Zeus Estate

The furnishings were great and the place was tastefully appointed and comfortable. it was very airy with a patio off the bedroom. There was no hot water for showering for the duration of our stay which we noted when we tried to shower. The part for the gas heater was broken and had to be ordered. If we had known ahead of time we would have cancelled the stay. The host refunded us for a night. We were pleased with his agreement. The front right stove burner was not working. The TV in the bedroom did not work. The access to the place is in a far out remote area with horrible gaunges in the unpaved road with poor lighting. It was easy to get lost as the access to the property was very challenging as there are no signage. Our GPS did not work. He came to our aid once when we got lost. The host shared a google map for a friend who was taking us to dinner. She still got lost and we arrived 2 hours late to the restaurant. She had to follow us both coming and going to fine the place when it was dusk. As a host perhaps putting water in the fridge would have been a plus on arrival as the grocery stores were far away. Had we known this we would have purchaesd breakfast items. We had use of his Suv vehicle for 2 days which was ideal for the rough terrain. The host was responsive to our messages or queries. We would find alternate arrangements if we visit again.

Wonderful view all around, the online pictures are exactly as is, clean, secure, a home away from home. I will definately stay here again.

Nothing special really other than a peaceful area.

The host was a great guy. The room needed a magnifying mirror, hair dryer, and a blanket for the bed. We had trouble with the TV. It was unfortunate that it rained for 36 hours and we had water on the floor. The water heater wasn't hot the first day. The roads were horrible in Antigua.

Zeus is a great host! Our group consisted of two adults and two 18 year old boys. It was our first trip to Antigua. He picked us up at the airport and stopped at a well-stocked grocery store on the way to his place. We had planned to rent Zeus' car and drive to the places/beaches we wanted to visit. After noticing that most of the streets are not named and other than the larger highways, the roads are rough, we chose to take his offer and ask him to drive us where we wanted to go. Zeus made himself available to us each time we asked. We were there over New Year's Eve and we would not have know about the local music and celebration at Shirley Heights if Zeus hadn't suggested it. His knowledge of restaurants was good too, one of our best meals was at a small local place near a beach that we wouldn't have know about without him. His place is nice, and the views are spectacular! Since there were 4 of us, we used both the 2nd and 3rd floors. Both floors have great views of the harbor and surrounding neighborhoods as well as the hills/mountains of the area. The benefit of the 3rd floor is in addition to what you see on the 2nd floor, you have a clear view of the cruise ships that came into the main port. We only had one issue while there, the hot water heater was not providing enough hot water. He contacted the plumber and I'm sure he has the problem fixed now. Antigua is one of the most beautiful places we have visited and Zeus made our stay wonderful!
