EXQUISITO is not even an adequate enough word to describe Alberto's Penthouse Apartment! Believe me when I tell you that whatever you imagine in your dreams about what a Penthouse Apartment should be, THIS IS IT! The views are literally panoramic; being able to sit in one of the two beautiful, Art-filled, flower adorned terrace and see through to the opposite, equally breathtaking SECOND terrace at the opposite side of the extensive, gorgeous PENTHOUSE! My 82 year old mother has travelled all over the world in her long life and she said it is the most elegant, luxurious, beautifully furnished, HUGE AND COSY (at the same time) tasteful and SPARKLING CLEAN place she has ever stayed! As for me, it blew my mind! From the bespoke lighting to the original artwork, to the top of the range kitchen, the solid oak parquet flooring through to the intricate tiling and soft, white, fluffy towels. The beds were so comfortable and the sheets so soft and fragrant, I couldn't wait to get back in mine for a siesta! We were greeted like long lost family by Alberto's delightful Caretaker and co-host, Lucine. Lovely! Both Alberto and Lucine were on-call at all times, even when I couldn't figure out the Nespresso Coffee Machine because despite loving coffee I've never used one! Thank you for your patience Lucine! And thank you Alberto for sharing your AMAZING Penthouse with myself and my mother. It is the last time my mother is going abroad (she said...) but after she saw the first Swifts of Spring fly over the terrace, I think she may have changed her mind...
I will certainly be back! Please! What a privilege to have stayed at such an incredible place; for my birthday too! Thank you for my best birthday ever! 5 ***** and a million more! Muchas Gracias! xxxxx
