Great flat that looks like the pictures, even bigger IRL. The furniture is somewhat old fashioned, but it’s clean and works. The terrace is huge and super nice. We had most of our meals out here. It’s situated sort of at the end of the Main Street, next door to a nice supermarket and 2 min from a really good bakery (and 3 min from the main square).
Balestrate is a nice little town. In the daytime not much is happening, but in the evening it seems like everyone is out on the streets. We were probably there a bit out of season, so maybe that’s why not much was going on in the day. Apparently the city goes from 6k inhabitants off season to 30k in season. Assume the city is booming in the summer time.
We used the flat to work from, and the internet connection was good for this. We also brought our road bikes and cycled around in the area. Super beautiful landscapes around Balestrate.
Communication was great with Matteo and the lady that greeted us and we also booked airport transfer through him, which was really good value compared to a taxi.
