Thalassophi

Our Standards

Our Standards

Every property or experience listed on the Thalassophi platform has undergone a rigorous and meticulous vetting processWe operate a very strict set of guidelines and protocols that very property and experience must align with to ensure that only the best homes are listed on the platform. 

How Does the Protocol Work?

Thalassophi launches stepwise in every destination. We then systematically analyse and review every potential home that is available for rental by creating a shortlist. This shortlist is then passed to one of our experts who meticulously inspects and goes through a regimental checklist process to ensure that all rentals meet our standards and requirements. For example: 

  • We check that every host reliable, responsive, trustworthy and has attention to detail.  
  • We ensure that all homes are clean and well-maintained. 
  • We make sure the photos show you a true depiction of the actual home or stay. 
  • All details such as the shower pressure, bathroom facilities, water source, air conditioning and the like are checked. If the facilities do not make the grade, then we will not list them. 

Our aim is to ensure that we do the work, so you don’t have to. We leverage the power of AI to sift through ratings and property listings systematically, filtering out vacation rentals that do not meet our standards or pass our protocols
