An Airbnb customer claims he endured a ' holiday from hell ' after arriving at what he thought was a luxury hotel only to find it boarded up as the owners had 'abandoned it almost two years ago'.
Sebastian Alexander booked a lavish New Year trip to Costa Rica with his wife Amy, forking out more than £1,000 for a 10-day stay at Hotel Casa Blanca in Tamarindo.
But the pair arrived at the end of December to find the luxury hotel apparently deserted, fenced-up and 'like a prison camp' with tall mesh fencing and desolate surroundings.
