The great: The house is INSANE! So beautiful. Everything we needed was there. We could have easily stayed there all day every day but we wanted to explore the beaches and nearby towns. The pool is epic. Perfectly designed and situated for maximal sun catching and nature basking. Grocery store 5 minutes down the road, with everything you need.
The not so great: No Air Conditioning. I know it’s not so common in Spain, but with this hot stretch of summer, we were unable to sleep at all (seriously). The recommendation to open the windows at night doesn’t work when it’s 90F (32C) and the mosquitos aren’t blocked by a screen or bed netting. We kept all the shutters closed during the day, windows open at night, two fans per bedroom, and we still all had to sleep in the first floor wearing wet tshirts just to get an hour or two of sleep per night. We unfortunately ended up moving to a hotel the last night as everyone was deliriously tired and hot with no place to go to cool off. Lots of wasps and biting flies at the pool but they didn’t really bother us. WiFi extremely slow, and didn’t work at all about 50% of the stay. We reset it a few times to get it working again, but it would stop working a few hours later. Might just be the location of the house. Don’t plan to work from here if you require a steady and fast connection.
Most of these issues are easily fixed, with 2 portable AC units for the upstairs, it would have made this house the perfect getaway. A bonus would be a few wasp and fly traps set up away from the pool. Otherwise, an absolute beauty of a house and a great host :)
