Pros: We had a brilliant time at this apartment for three weeks, spending much of our time on the large solarium or on the equally extensive terrace off the lounge as both are south facing. The apartment was spotless, very well equipped with double sofas, very comfortable double and single beds (we tried them all) and we were presented with an amazing welcome pack which was really appreciated at the time of night we arrived. Our hosts Karen and husband Octavia are lovely people, and made us feel so welcome. Our adjoining neighbours, of English, Belgian, Finnish and Spanish were equally welcoming, so it was just a delight speaking to them all. The location is very good, mid way between Los Altos and Villamartin Plaza, the latter being a great venue for the Sunday lunch and afternoon entertainment which was superb.
With Aldi being less than a 10 minute walk away, and Via III and the Lime Bar amongst others a further 5 minutes, we didn't bother with a hire car, and chose to walk everywhere, including a trip to Zenia Boulevard (must go) and the Saturday Market (must go too), we had a great time getting to know the area and its urbanisations /commercial centres, so met loads of people and visited lots of restaurants and bars. The food is cheaper in the supermarkets than the UK, so is eating out, the food in every restaurant we dined in was brilliant, all freshly made, what's not to like. All in all, we had the most brilliant holiday, and can't thank Karen and Octavia for their great welcome, and for providing us with an apartment that we found really difficult to let go of, when the time came to leave. Can't say enough about the apartment and its location which for us didn't include the beach, but its adjacent to the bus route, or get a cheap as chips taxi, and your there in 15 minutes or less.
Thank you so much for having us Karen and Octavia, it was a real pleasure, and for anyone considering this apartment, just read the other reviews and book it!!!!
PS we rated the apartment 5 stars, but this couple go the extra mile, and it is 5 stars plus from us.
