Del mar 37

There’s plenty of room, and the beach is very close. The place was spotless, and a very friendly woman let us in and showed us around. Everything was just as described, with all the things you could need in the accommodation. What a location 😀 If you can get a booking, grab it quickly, this is a great one.

We stayed as four adults and two children, and the owner was lovely from the warm welcome right through to letting us stay until 4 pm on departure day. We liked the apartment and would definitely return, even with a few small drawbacks. The outdoor space is a real highlight, with plants, a table for six, cushioned wicker chairs, and a fireplace with a barbecue grill, charcoal, and wood. There’s also an outdoor storage room with cleaning supplies and recycling bins. The patio opens to the side street. Since it’s on the ground floor and bordered by only a low wall, it’s easy to climb over. When we came back from the beach, a pair of women’s flip-flops we’d left outside had been stolen, so I’d leave nothing on the patio and lock up carefully. The main door is secure, and there’s an iron gate too. Upstairs, a huge terrace covers the apartment’s roof and has clotheslines, but the wall along the edge is only about 50 cm high, so take care there, especially with children. Inside, the large living room has a 55-inch TV and Hi-Fi, plus a laptop and printer. Wi-Fi is free throughout. The kitchen is extremely well equipped, with plenty of dishes, cutlery, glasses, pots and pans, food containers, a toaster, kettle, De Longhi espresso machine, dishwasher and starter dishwasher capsules, as well as all the small tools and cloths. The fridge felt a little small for six. We were greeted with a lovely basket of fresh fruit and a bottle of local red wine. There are three fairly comfortable bedrooms. One was a bit cramped around the bed and for closet storage, though the double mattress was comfortable. Air conditioning worked perfectly in every bedroom and the living room. Both bathrooms have windows and large showers. They were clean enough on arrival, but the shower, floor tiles, and walls could use renovation and fresh paint. We appreciated the hand soap, two toilet rolls, and hairdryer. One evening we spotted a cockroach in a bathroom. These things happen. The shutters let morning sunlight through easily.

Angela was so friendly and helpful, thank you! We felt right at home in this lovely holiday apartment. The house had left us a huge fruit basket, a bottle of wine, and cold soft drinks, and we spent time on the big terrace every day.

Getting everything booked and arranged was quick and easy, and we always got prompt replies to our questions. They even sorted out our taxi. The kitchen has everything you need, and the owner is warm and attentive. It’s a comfortable, lovely place in a wonderful seaside spot in a charming little town. Highly recommend.
