    Sofa bed very uncomfortable. Electric plugs (most) were not working. Gas scape so when finished cooking we kept closing hose to avoid danger and bad smell of gas

    Great location, big interior space, nice bathrooms , clean areas

    One day there was no electricity nor water, nearly a full day. We understood that it happens, but total lack of care from the side of the people in charge made us cut the stay short. We felt abandoned and left to ourself.

    It's a lovely apartment near the beach, very comfortable. It was clean, the bedding was freshly washed and smelled really nice. I had a lovely night sleep.

    Lack of restaurant or near supermarket and some noise from neighborhood property construction, but that’s not their fault.

    Location, pool and staff were all great!

    There was no drinkable water in the space and we had to buy our own water to drink. The TV didn't have any local channels or Netflix Account

    The Pool, Polo the manager is very nice. The room was clean and we had everything in the kitchen that we typically find in airbnb.

    There was a construction next to the pool, and they did not respect the law and it was to closed from the property. I feel bad for the owners because this is really bad for the image of the place. Hope they can do something about it.

    The location is perfect!! It was really clean and brigth.

    The grounds workers walked through our patio area constantly. They woke me as I was resting downstairs, was highly upset.

    The apartment had two levels Wich was nice, each with a bathroom. Everything worked as advertised.

    There were lots of repairs that were needed in some of the units. Some had no working fans at all. The WIFI was not good and would work about 50% of the time. The hot water was also not dependable.

    The location was very good and close to the beach. There is a lot of construction all around the property so it was quite noisy most of the time during the day..

    First thing was that they didn't have enough utensils in the kitchen, no hot water in the bathroom upstairs, and the fan doesn't work on the lower floor. Overall it wasn't that bad but there are a couple of things that it needs some fixing

    The pool was nice and we were by ourselves most of the time, there are a lot of small restaurants nearby and the staff was nice

    The fridge was very small and the freezer needed defrosting. An ice making tray would have been useful. and perhaps a kettle. As an owner of a swimming pool myself it was clear that the pool was not being correctly maintained

    The beach area has runoff that was quite smelly. Pollution from the area being so over built clearly overwhelming the sea. What is it that the cities most beautiful asset is so poorly looked after. Is there even a sewage plant to treat waste? Take away public bins please as they seem to just be ravaged by the wind and most of the rubbish sucked out and ends up in the sea. People carry all the full packaging and then cannot take their empty and light waste back home to dispose of leaving it to the city to try cleaning 100's of bins which is never that efficient sadly. Also loud building works going on around the property. Surely wont be forever though and the buildings going up will add to the location for sure.

    the space of the accommodation was excellent and the bedroom wonderfully done.

    The "grid" went down in a few places and we were told that this is not unusual. We travel with a handful of battery operated "tea lights" which came in handy. Keep in mind when this happens everything goes down: AC, fans, electric fridge...come prepared. Mosquitos can also be an issue so "OFF" is important to have.

    We loved this place! Close enough to the action, removed enough from the noise - could walk on the beach every morning and could walk into town or catch a "motorbike taxi". So many options: cafes, restaurants, beach bars...etc. Credit cards are not a big thing - make sure you have cash - it is the preferred option of currency. French, Italian, Spanish and English spoken everywhere.
