The house is on an attractive, leafy, street, only a 5 minute amble to the main Plaça in the centre of town. Although close to town, it’s a quiet area, with few passers-by and barely any traffic. There is a convenience shop halfway between town and the house, so we were walking past it every day and it sold everything we needed for food etc.
Parking was a little tricky. We had to drive around the local streets looking for available spaces each time we returned home, but were usually able to find a space that was a few minutes walk away and cost around EU6 for 24 hours. Once we parked out of town on the road towards the Port, which was a 15 min walk back, but was free and we could leave the car there as long as we liked.
The garden is really special, it’s beautiful, peaceful, with plenty of seating areas and a very inviting pool.
The garden is overlooked, as others have said, and 3 properties have a full view right over the pool area. We did see glimpses of people in these properties each day, but it didn’t bother us, and we didn't feel uncomfortable.
The beds were very comfortable, we all slept downstairs in the ‘basement’. The clothes storage was generous and the interior of the whole house was conveniently arranged, tidy and jolly.
The air con worked well and we found the house cool and airy, only needing to turn it on for a couple of a hours in the evenings.
The host, Katja, was very friendly, welcoming, easy to reach and helped us with everything we needed.
